Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2023
- In the forest close to the truck is one of the largest black bears that I have seen in NC.
I'm NOT Alone!
In this Adventure, heavy rain is approaching the mountains and it's the perfect time to set up a massive tarp and to enjoy the conditions.
Get ready for heavy rain, a nice fire and some great food.

That night vision camera was just great seeing all the animals go by.
My husband passed away last year on our anniversary September 3rd 2022 and he and I loved watching your videos. It was our favorite video to watch each week as you did a review on items.
He was 8 years older than myself, but you wouldn't have known it because everything I wanted to do, he would follow me right along.
If I wanted to go camping he'd go camping, If I wanted to bike he would bike, We had recumbent trikes and we triked all over Ohio on the rail trails.
If I wanted to kayak he would kayak on Alum Creek in Ohio.
I miss him terribly.
He was 82 when he passed.
I'm 75 now.
And I still do those things that kept us young at heart.
Only thing is I do it with my good friend Susan now. But now she has a boyfriend and I'm going to be like out in the backfield so to speak.
But I did manage to take a trip out west with my cousin Linda.
We spent 28 days on the road driving through state to state seeing things that we've never seen before until I arrived in Ashland Oregon. It's been a week with my sister who I hadn't seen in 12 years, and then from there drove down to Bakersfield, California and back across the United States stopping in Zuni New Mexico to visit the Navajo Indian reservation.
Just to give you a little bit about myself. Don't ever stop doing what you do because it cheers me up to watch your videos.
I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your husband and friend, Rebecca! But it is great that you made so many great experiences since then. Take care, be wild and lots of love from Germany.
@@NashBen
Thank you, NashBen.
I'm a survivor.
I grew up in Alaska and had many encounters with bears but I only considered 2 extremely dangerous. Once I was in the middle of the Chena river near Fairbanks fishing and a large black bear appeared on the bank maybe 25 yards away swinging it’s head. That bear became sausage. The other time at my house in Homer on the tip of the Kenai peninsula I heard a crash. A bear had torn the door off my chicken coop and was inside eating chicken food. I ran the bear off but it kept coming back. The last time I tried to run it off it laid its ears back. It’s hackles came up ant it made a woof and started clicking it’s teeth. That bear became very tasty sausage too. When in bear country my advice is to be armed because bears are unpredictable. Nice video Luke.
Thanks for sharing your stories!
This is just a side note: I absolutely LOVE Homer, AK. One of my most favorite places I’ve ever been. ❤
Ok ok nice 😂😂😂 what kind of weapon can bring a bear down? 😊😊
@@ChangeHenriquez I carried a 357 magnum and I am a very good shot. I would recommend a 44 magnum and get very good with it for close range protection. For longer range any big bore 30 caliber and above. Brown and grizzlies are big so if you are in their territory keep that in mind.
@@arnoldseay9118 thank you for this explanation 😄😄🥊®️⚡💯
I live in central Pennsylvania and thankfully, there have been many landowners who have donated their land to conservancies. It has created many miles of trails along with opportunities to spend time in the woods. I'm glad I live where I live.
Luke,
I understand precisely what you are talking about when bringing up canvas tents. My dad was career Navy. Somewhere in his career, he learned to work with canvas. He was pretty good at it. He made an A-frame canvas tent, supported with a metal frame that snapped together and held the tent up.
All of the negative things you said about canvas tents are true, and more. As kids in the early 60s, we visited our aunt and uncle in Baytown, Texas. It was in the Spring, but an unseasonable warm one. Since more people were visiting than there were beds available, he set up the tent in the backyard.
No ground cloth, so we sprayed the grass with insecticide (imagine the smell). We did have wood/canvas cots (remember the Boy Scouts summer camps). When you closed the door flaps, it was dark, even in the daytime.
While Dad could sew canvas, he knew little about designing a tent. There was no ventilation or protection from bugs, except to close the door flaps. Nighttime in that part of Texas is mosquito heaven, so we had to button up the doors or be eaten alive. Think about the tents you see in Civil War photographs. That’s what the tent resembled. Sleeping in this tent was like being inside an Indian Sweat Lodge.
This tent was a car-camp tent because it was too heavy to carry on your back. I’m glad our visit was limited to two nights. Sleeping under the stars, even with the mosquitoes, was much preferred to the inside of the tent.
Larry from Texas
Love your scathing review of the Firemaple woodstove. Glad you wrote the company. Thanks for the heads up and guidance on this safety hazard.
That trail cam video was so cool to see. Everybody was there! Bears, deer , turkey's bobcats, coyotes a skunk. It was like a Disney movie! Lol The best part was when the little bear went right up to the trail camera and started sniffing it. That was super adorable. Loved it. Thank you for this video😊🙏🏼
Prayers for Rob and Carrie!
Prayers for Rob and Carrie 🙏❤
Bears have to be one of the most inquisitive omnivores on the planet. Truly fascinating animals.
Loved the trail cam footage! And that’s one Big Bear! I’ve seen video of bears literally using car door handles to open them up and getting inside! 😮
Real fantastic trail-cam footage!
Thank you.
The Lynx blew my mind.
Truck camping at lone Wolf mountain is my favorite videos from you. I used to really love the old viewer mail videos where you guys would try food and stuff. I really miss seeing you and Suzie do with that. It would be cool just to see you and Suzie at lone Wolf for a weekend hanging out. Cheers to you both ❤
If you’re gonna put pineapple on your pizza, it had better have SPAM also 😅
Every time I watch you make a cup of coffee, I have the urge to make a cup. I have had my Kodiak Canvas truck tent in torrential rains and it has never leaked. But I do need to make sure that it is 100% dry before bagging it up. Being old school, I like canvas. But not being that old, I am about to get a Hiker Squaredrop (teardrop) within the year. Getting older and less setup is my goal.
I have been in a deer stand and heard a herd of deer working their way down towards me from behind me. The excitement grew as they neared. Just when they got alongside me, I dared to look. One dang squirrel with an ear of corn in his mouth.
Stay safe and God bless.
Turkeys, Crows, Black Bears, Bobcats, Fox, Skunk, and Deer!
To your viewer Rob and his wife Carrie, may the light of the Lord shine upon you during this difficult time. May he heal you and embrace you with his love. May he fill your hearts with gratitude and fulfillment. May the Lord our Father take away your pain and suffering. Do not be sad but rejoice for you are in the presence of the Lord who gave his only son so mankind would live forever in his house. I will pray for you, Rob and you Carrie, that you are able to have the strength and enduring love in these dark days. Only God knows what the future has for you but we hold our faith high in knowing you will not be alone. I pray for healing and the love of the Lord to bring his light and warmth to you. God Bless! 🙏
Japan is a beautiful place, quite expensive though. Tokyo, lots of hustle and bustle. The people are very nice. Another world altogether.
I really enjoyed watching the wild life and the beautiful colors of the leaves.
Thanks for sharing another great video Luke.
The quiet forest. Including bears, coyotes, deer and possibly rabid bobcats. Nice video.
Those mosquito coils are legit, I used them my last trip into the woods. Bugs HATE them and they're not unpleasant at all to be around.
As a child, we had a Hugh green canvas tent. We were always told to not touch the ceiling or sides when it was raining because it would immediately start dripping.
It would, because I did touch it when a child so the water dripped on me all night.
I love these truck camping adventures because you're relaxed while camping. To me that what it's all about...being out in nature, relaxed, breathing the fresh air and doing very little. I love van camping for that same reason.
I have had a canvas wall tent up for nearly three years in northern Michigan. It’s completely water tight. No issues. We have to clear the snow off so it doesn’t collapse under the weight. When it rains we leave it be. Sheds rain no problem. It has no waterproofing treatment. I have been to Mt Fuji in January. No hiking then. There was very little snow so our bus took us up above the clouds. We took a lift up higher. Incredible. Too bad about people not respecting it during hiking season.
Oil skin or waxed canvas ?
Coffee so important it makes the hour the day the week perfect.
I love the editing style you have and music that you use. It really adds to the ambiance of the video!
31:03 so glad I subscribed to your channel a few years ago. I've been interested in all of them. Brings back memories of my grandpa taking me out hunting and camping as a kid/toddler. 1963 and on. Yes, I am old. Hahaha. Thanks for the memories.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I loved the trail cam video. Thank you including that. I was surprised to see so much bear & bob-cat activity.
My goodness, what a busy little highway for the wildlife. Really enjoyed watching them commuting back and forth to work!
UDAP portable electric bear fence. Unless it’s winter or I’m in a pretty tame area, I always use it. Definitely helps me sleep better at night. Shotgun and a dog help too.
I paticularly enjoyed this one. The colours...wow. Cinematography and vibe were spot on. So relaxing and peaceful watching these. The wildlife was a very nice addition. You can tell this is your land because you're extra chill and comfortable 😎
Great trip! Thanks for sharing. The Saki was the hit of the show, along with the bear of course😊.
I loved our pop up tent canoeing. Hit the shore with a storm coming up in a minute inside. Dry and snug
Wow. He was going to camp there. His favorite spot and you come along and don't even leave a picnic basket. 😂
Great video, Luke! strength & honor!
Thank you for another great campout!! I remember seeing one of your much earlier videos in which your little coffeepot looked brand new! Wow, it has a nice patina on it now. That bear smelled the chocolate mocha coffee! What can resist it? The smell probably wafted for over a mile and the sensitive nose of the bear caught it! I loved the sound of the tree frogs. I grew up in south central VA. No bears but those nighttime insects and the smell of the autumn forest I remember very well.
Luke I was stationed in Japan for three years and absolutely loved it. It's such a beautiful country with a unique culture. You really do get the best of ancient traditions and cutting edge technology. Plus the people are simply wonderful, they are mostly pro American and they are the most polite society I've ever experienced. If I ever had to move from the US, Japan would definitely be in my top three places to consider.
I was born in Japan while we were stationed there. My little brother also joined the Air Force and was stationed there, they loved it! Japan is what EVERY country should strive to be!
I gotta say, I follow a bunch of channels, but You TOGR have the best quality sound of them all! Kudos to you man!
That big black bear was either beefed up for the winter or very pregnant.
Fall my absolute favorite season and I’m glad I live on the east coast to enjoy all 4 seasons.
There is no “very pregnant”. The sows deliver cubs weighing about 6 ounces while she sleeps In early winter. Wish my little ones weighed that little, well, not really. I wanted healthy babies.
The scenery is absolutely gorgeous!! God is good!!
Lots of fun seeing the trail cam footage. As a hunter here in Iowa I run 3 trail cams and get great shots of deer, Turkey, bobcats and coyote. Your big bear looks like a 400lb boar. I saw 35 black bears on my hunting trip to Alberta in Sept. While I was after moose seeing all the bears, elk and mule deer was fun.
Great Video work again.
Yes, so agree. X
He definitely caught a black bear on cam
I am in Iowa too.
That was big foot.
Japan resident here. I hike a lot and Mt. Fuji is definitely last on my list as far as target peaks go. Battling crowds just to reach a peak really misses the point. The Nagano area is easily accessible from Tokyo and has some killer trails. Mt. Shirouma [ 白馬岳] was a blast. One of my bucket list peaks is Mount Tanigawa [谷川岳], which is not so high, but has more fatalities than Everast.
I do not camp but I love your videos. I have learned a lot about camping and enjoy the knowledge from experience you impart. Your cinematography is excellent. You have a great voice and inflection for sharing stories and experiences. I look forward to each video you make. They are very relaxing. Thank you for all the work you do. It is a blessing ! 👍😁
That is totally correct; we used to use canvas tents and as you have said the current tents are so lite and water 16:11 proof why go thru all of the trouble with canvas care; too much work. The set up of current tents is awesome
Great video! Thanks for what you do. I have some acres and an off grid cabin in north Florida if you ever want to go there. It has a pond with an alligator, tall slash pines, just a little different environment than Lone Wolf Mountain.
A well above average warmup after having a first frost is what we in the midwest refer to as "Indian Summer"
Called it that in New England too.
My husband ran into a black bear on the way to the outhouse while we were camping this summer. The bear spun around as soon as they met. Said it had red eyes from his headlamp.
That's gotta be a little stressful trying to relax and "take care of business" in the outhouse after that, I might not make it to the outhouse if that happened lol
Pretty sure it was a sqwatch
natural occurence at night, see em in the day their brown eyes lol , I live in Ontario Canada we live around the black bear see em all the time . day and night, be bear wise keep your food and scented products away in sealed containers they wont bother you.
Ah 💩
@@suezaple4950 ALWAYS! 👍🏻
Having cut my camping teeth on canvas tents back in the sixties when I was a Boy Scout, I agree that modern tents are far superior to canvas. The difference in convenience and comfort is night and day. I especially appreciate the bathtub floors found in most modern tents.
I’m actually surprised you don’t come across them more often as much as you camp🙂
May the good Lord watch over Rob and Carry. Sincerely from the deepest part of our hearts, Kevin and Julia, Port Republic, Maryland.❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Exceptional video! The animals always fascinate me. The bears, not so much. 😅
I’m glad the bear did not bother you. It is so beautiful up there. Especially when the fall colors come out. Thank you for taking us along Kathy.
I love your camping style always have coffee with you don't change your camping style thank you ❤
That is so great! You enjoy your coffee so much I have one with you also, no matter the time. Your right, it’s a great cup of coffee!
7:21; the stove ignitor has worked first time both times I've seen you using this stove.
20:07; I've never seen such a small hand help portable electric saw as that Stihl. A really nice piece of equipment in a Truck/RV camper.
22:17; I'm surprised to see you putting together that FireMaple wood some, something you didn't like in a prior video.
I'm guessing the chocolate flavored coffee is WHAT attracted the bear.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada
Beautiful photography - just gorgeous. The leaves are turning and falling - gorgeous. Reminds me of living in upstate New York around First Lake, Second Lake, etc. many years ago. We would get falling leaves knee deep. Just LOVE the wildlife shown in the trail cam - 15:01. Beautiful creatures large and small. God's creation is so wonderful. I see why you prefer nature compared to being out in the world with the news that we hear and see daily.
Super that you are protecting your mountain!!
Have a Moss tent from 1998, is still bombproof in terrible storms. Another trek in Japan that sounds fun is a walk through small towns with hot springs dotted along the way, staying in bed and breakfasts on the paths. That big bear looked like its front left leg was sore.
I love when you truck camp, but I really like to watch the cabin trips. you need to do the cabin when it snows!
He doesn't seem to be afraid of anything? God bless him lol Ooohh yeah!! ❤
I love to see you and Susie going on that tv show, Amazing Race.. you both could go to all these different countries. It’s one of my favorite tv shows… I watch Survivor as well
Luke, your videos are really relaxing. Love the fall colors and animals you caught on trail cams. Thanks
Beautiful fall scenery.
Wow, so many critters! So exciting to see. Thank you for posting.
By the way, Saki didn't hurt with the good sleep you got, nor did it help with the mess you made on the stove:)
The bears this year have been insane, getting smart inside cars and breaching our trash bear box - Arnold, CA
They teach each other! So yup, if one knows, you can bet siblings know! 😮😂
I really enjoyed watching this video. You have some great gear and skills. The rain and thunder sounds were so relaxing. And that bear was huge! How did you manage to stay calm? You are an inspiration to all outdoor enthusiasts!
It is so nice to see the trees changing colors, beautiful autumn colors.
Hi Luke,, oh the nats are bad here too! I hate them,, and they find their way inside... wow awesome 8pt buck..turkeys, coyotes, a bobcat and black bears..foxes, skunks all kind of animals.. cool!!!!👍♥
Bears love the scent of citronella. I’m wondering if your visitor was attracted to your bug repellent product you ignited early in the episode.
You really do a great job filming! I love the videos! Thanks for sharing!
Another terrific video, great wildlife for sure. Wonder if you could think about doing a Coleman tent/s review? Best from Alberta.
In Scotland we only have to worry about wild haggis running about our camp site. If we had bears probably wouldn't go out.. well done
.. and some of our rabbits give you a nasty stare.
Wild haggis running around a campsite this did make me laugh 😂
What an adorable Baby Chainsaw!!
I gave my big one away because I'm 61 and don't need to be cutting my leg off. I also have no use for a Big Boi chainsaw anymore.
But that Baby Stihl would be perfect around the yard for small trash trees.
Thanks.
Trail cam magic spot!!
Gorgeous colors in the beautiful scenery. Love the trail cam footage. I can almost smell that delicious chicken dish. I wonder if the smell brought the bear back looking for food. Love your videos. I miss Susie.
Love your videos and looking forward to your Japan trip. I was in Okinawa earlier this year and loved it! Please take care.
Hi Luke. You really are amazing with your camera shots. Are you sure you don't have someone operating the camera with you? Really well done and makes your videos so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for your effort.
I love your mountain!!! It is so beautiful with all the fall colors! I love all the animals too!!! Thank you for sharing your trail cameras too. Looking forward to your next adventure! Take care y’all!
amazing how you caught that beast!
I have a canvas tent and put it through rain 70 mph winds ~ 8 inches of snow in one night and never had an issue. Yes they are bulky and heavy but it’s the warmest homiest tent I’ve ever owned.
Love seeing the animals
Luke, this was an outstanding video. Loved it. I think that black bear is pregnant, you may have more running around soon.
I really, really enjoy this and all your videos. Growing up in Connecticut my buddy and I would take off for days up and old abandoned RR track and camp. Summer, winter, we didn't care. Your videos bring my right back to those days and I still plan on tailgate camping soon now that I'm retired. Your gear reviews are awesome and cuts out a lot of "trial and error" for me. Thanks man! Keep it up. I look forward to your next adventure.
Up here in Canada we have lots of black bears I’ve encountered many they will run away from you more then likely and it’s getting cold out so they are trying to gain weight for the winter so don’t be surprised if you see more on your trips
I'm 57 years old. I remember camping, as a 12 or 13 year old kid, in the back of our '73 Dodge pickup with a campershell. The site was on the Misssissippi River in southern Illinois. Laying back, listening to the rain on the shell's top....swimming, seeing wildlife, fishing and catching Tom Sawyer style...grilling the catfish, bluegills (pumpkin seed fish), and crappies over an open fire. Even at the age of 12 or 13, you can't forget Marlboros and Budweiser--the rebellious Tom Sawyer stuff! Good times, I miss it. Nostalgia.
I'm like that too Luke, I like to sit with my coffee, and slowly wake up, it just feels good to sip at my coffee :) I live out of town amongst trees, and I never find it boring, the same with the ocean, love to look at it, the sounds of either the forest or the ocean make me feel soothed :)
We own a White Duck 18' canvas bell tent that we use for "glamping" together. The wife has a medical condition that precludes her from sleeping in a prone position. Have to use a good multi-position cot/recliner and a "normal" tent really doesn't suit our needs. Can't backpack anyway as I am afflicted with the age-related condition of "brain-says-yes-but-body says-no". I blame 20 years of Army. The tent, though, sets upon 15 minutes so it's just a matter of dragging the bag out of the truck. I tested it out for 3 weeks in November when I got it and it went through numerous heavy rain and d wind events with zero water intrusion so I give that one a thumbs up. BTW, it's a big one. 16' diameter. Thanks for all you do.
I love watching your videos, especially this one. It makes me want to go camping. I have a truck too but not truck camped with it...always camped in a tent. You are lucky to have such a beautiful piece of property to enjoy! Cheers!!
There are plenty of campgrounds around Mt. Fuji where you can enjoy nature with Mt. Fuji in the background.😊
Aw, that bear is so cute! Love his big thumpy feet!
I love your videos I used to go camping very therapeutic loved it thanks a million keep up the good work
The scenery is amazing. You have a beautiful piece of property. I think I would be wearing a gun at all times. That bear looked hungry. Thank you Luke
Ive lived thru an experience with a black bear - while my family were camping in Petty Jean Mt. Campsites - we set up a Army 10 person wall tent - it had 1 door and no floor and was fun to sleep in - that is until the third night - the people in the next campsite left food out on the picnic table and a bear came in and feasted on the food - it then went looking for more food and entered our tent and panicked everyone - lol - we went out the door and the bear went out the new back door which it made lol - it ran over the pup tent next campsite and had everyone panicking - talk about woke up rudely and mad and scared - the Game Rangers fined $$ the people that left out the food - and our new tent had a new door - lmao
Thanks Luke for the brutally honest reviews of gear. Recent road trip to Alaska saw 23 bears; some up close (too close) for comfort. Good you always take protection as they can be unpredictable.
I purchased last year a canvas polyester family tent. Used it now 4 weeks in mostly dry condition. I'm glad for this. The breathability is superior to the "modern" tents. I hope to test ist out in wet condition, aware that a lasting drying is needed.
So funny on the Saki. I was shouting at the screen, “ don’t chug a lug that, ahhh no. “. And then you commented on how smooth it was. Made it even funnier..
I have put several people on successful bear hunts. The biggest thing I learned back then is how quite a big animal can move through the brush. Successful hunters would say to my wife and I. "How can an animal so big move so quietly". I don't belive it was a bear.
I was so worried youd scratch the pan cutting the chicken.. looks amazing ❤ pineapple a d Canadian bacon on pizza with boack olives, mmmmmm
I love the sound of rain on a heavy canvas tent
You got a great parade of animals on the property... loving this.
I see that you are wearing a smart watch. You will enjoy it. I purchased one when I up graded to an iPhone 14. While on my cycling adventures, It not only monitors Speed, Distance and Riding Time. It monitors my heart rate, elevation and climb change. I have done hot tent in my yard. I have used the Buddy Mr heater, and I have used a 1500 watt heater connected to my outdoor outlet via a 12 wire gauge extension cord. The outlet uses a GFI protector.
You have truly been blessed my friend. To have a mountain would be so cool. To old to think about that but a question for ya, do you have any issues with individuals trashing your mountain? Thanks for the adventures
Hi Luke and Suzie, thank you for all of your videos! All the information that you provide are so all so helpful. Do you have any advice or will you be doing a video on the best way to clean your tents, tarps and gear? Thank you!
