I love the sound and feel of a good thunderstorm. To me it’s evidence of the power of nature on display.
Nothing like it ??
Ditto I totally agree with you. T Storms are so awesome!⛈🌧
@@jantefft2442 I love to listen to the rain . I listen to a channel of rain and thunder at night. It calms me of the days events and helps me to fall asleep. Nothing like it .
I love it too. I play a storms on UA-cam for sleeping and when I have panic attacks it definitely helps.

Luke, you raise a very important point at 19:25; privacy. Of course you do not want to give your location away. If you did, imagine how many people would flock there, crawling through Lone Wolf Mountain. It would look like a Woodstock concert. Your adventures should be enjoyed the way you intended them to be enjoyed: on screen. That, or go out and make your own adventures. We hardly need more encouragement of that sort, as you do a great job of providing it. Thanks, Luke. Awesome video as always!
I used to throw newspapers as a young kid, back when that was a thing, and one time a great northern owl was sitting on top of a telephone pole. It was gigantic and awesome. I just stopped and looked at him for several minutes. It was way early, like 6 AM and there were no cellphones back then. So I just registered the photo in my mind. And 55 years later it's still as clear as crystal in my mind. One of the coolest life moments ever.
With all the rainy adventures you do, I would love to see a video of how you dry everything.
Luke.
Not only is the vehicles steering wheel on the right side. Its also on the correct side of the vehicle.
Cheers from the UK
The rain sounds great. Where, I live we got some beautiful rain. It was a blessing because small creatures and plants need rain. I get to see the world with your journey. Thank you so much.
Thank you Luke. Glad y'all are back.
A happy every day belated Mother's day to Susie.
i come for the storms stories info education sense of humor & much much more.
Oh wow 🤯 oh wow 😳. Great video ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊. Thanks for your hard work and time 💪😊👍👍👍👍👍. Hello from Indiana USA and this 62 year old lady.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yesterday, I did my first bike adventure for the season. That gave me a chance to try out my brand new iPhone 14. I took a few pictures of things that seem interesting. Who needs a Go Pro. The pictures seem of good quality. I gave up my car 10 years ago. My drivers license almost two years ago. I do not miss either one. I am trying to decide which I like best. Biking or Hiking. I restored three bicycles last Summer. The same principles used in RVing can be applied to cycling. I hope we do not have the fires we have had for the past years. I will always enjoy your videos.
Come to Italy Luke! My wife and I would be more than happy to show you and Susan around! Davide
I love heavy rain and thunder so really enjoyed this video.
😮good evening Luke stay safe out there .i don't no how you do it
I absolutely LOVE Storms!!!! I get bumbed out though when you have to end the video or videos during a good storm though 😔 But I understand why 😊😊
Thanks for the adventures and so glad to hear you are taking location precautions. I too would be worried for you and Susie's safety. You never know! Looking forward to your new adventures. 🌲🏕
I agree about the bird sounds. Animals are the first to 'announce' bad weather or even a predator nearby. Woods are noisy, you are fine. But when it gets dead quiet, pay attention to your surroundings, whether it's the sky or the area surrounding you.
Yes indeed even in the UK they know!
Glad to see that you and Susie are home safe. Beautiful thunderstorm. Loved the Dogwood petals falling. I heard the 3 snorts! My first vehicle I owned was a 67 Dodge right hand drive mailtruck that I started turning into a camper but went into the service and those plans faded. Perhaps one day I will attempt it.
While I am glad to see that you guys are back here in NC, I respect your privacy and you should never have to worry about people intruding on it. Stay off the radar and keep on posting videos for us.
I will be in Uwharrie for a short truck tent camping trip with the kids and grandkids in a few weeks. I love the mountains of NC.
Stay safe and God bless.
ps, on the church bulletin this morning, with the topic of Mothers day, the preacher had printed Strength and Honor.
Happy Mothers Day to Susie.
It would never occur to me to just go up to someone's house because I watch their videos. That's weird and you can never tell if some nut case might try to hurt you, or your family.
Great stories and wonderful videos. Thank you.
The owl in my oak is enormous, once saw his wing span when I startled him on my patio table looking for food and I SWEAR it had to be 5 feet or better. His hoot is deep and very loud. His mate is also near by, they hoot to each other for hours.
That is a nice BIG tarp! Lots of room, lots of versatility.
Thank you Luke for the video.
Love the solo adventures. The desert at night is amazing. Stay safe my friend and keep exploring
Anoraks. I have never owned one for(probably) the same reason. I hope the folks in your area appreciate the local talented tailor. Cudos (whatever those are) to the viewer who sent the idea. No idea LWM was so far away. I was a mail man USPS for twenty years and driving the right side vehicle was never a problem. I got used to it the first day.
Im a life long lover of lightning storms the stronger the better - I've seen lightning turn a 150 foot tall pine tree into a burnt out match stick while i and some friends were up in my states mountains hunting - fantastic scene
I drive an old Jeep and your off the back tarp configuration has inspired me to do something similar off my rig. I'm thinking of incorporating tarp connection points on a custom roof basket that's got an integrated kayak nest and some provisions for a shovel and some traction boards.
Japan is great. I was stationed in Okinawa for 2 years. I absolutely loved the island and the mainland. the people are amazing, the sites are phenomenal, and the culture is 2nd to none. if you make this your decision you will not be disappointed.
Japan is awesome. I've had the opportunity to travel there twice and it is amazing, especially if you can get outside of the big cities and explore towns and villages that tourists don't necessarily travel to. Had hoped to take my kids there before I turned 50, but we decided on an Iceland/England/Ireland trip before the pandemic, that and changes in our family have thus far prevented me from taking them. But definitely want to get back. I think you and Suzie would really like Iceland too.
Luke/ owl staring contest made you're day? You are one very cool guy in my book!
Good morning, everyone 😘✌️
That really is beautiful country.
Best out-music yet. Short and simple.
I've camped in the rain under a tarp for 2 weeks and the pitter pat of rain for days can almost drive you insane. All you do is sit and think. So, we had 2 cases of beer apiece on ice to make madness go away. Along with other party favors. It turned out to be more fun than first expected. Being outside, away from work and the irritations of modern life, it really recharges your battery. Some of my best thinking was done under a tarp in a long rainstorm.
It's an awesome experience to see an owl. They are amazing creatures. One of my favorites. Turkeys are cool too but nothing beats an owl.
Gotta love the moody music with the end credits.
Looking forward to the review of the Mongar vestibule.
Lone Wolf is beautiful in the Spring. Take care, be well
Oh wow! Nice owl capture.
I always look forward to your videos. Especially with the rain. Glad you and Susie had good time on your trip.
Hi Luke, if Susie likes Bento as much as you do, instead of selling it, maybe you can consider the option to convert it to the left side driving system.
Absolutely love this episode!! Strength & Honor!
Glad you had a safe and adventurous trip! Looking forward to watching both videos! Although I have to admit watching your videos make me homesick for the mountains of WNC, really miss them in spite of being in sunny Florida.
I'm putting this on watch later! Love your stuff, but todays Mothers day, and I'm taking my MIL out for Chinese! Here's wishing you all a happy Mothers day!
That is a party sized tarp! I am with Suzy on the Toyota.
Gewitter ist voll Schön da kann man voll gut Schlafen
Awesome Luke😁
Good to have you back my friend
Glad to see your back safe
Such great filmography. It's artful, and I know an incredible amount of work. But thanks for producing such exceptional content. And for feeling like that friend we all have that's just better than us at everything. You are that guy, and its cool. We are not jealous, just kind of in awe.
Whilst hard decisions about Bento need to be made, I am sure Suzie will understand as you dive away, why you made the hard choice you did ;-)
We have a lot of the beautiful Barred owls where I live in PA. Last summer there was a group of juveniles that was playing and dive bombing around my screen porch for a few weeks. I didn’t get good shots w my camera phone but did get some sounds of them calling each other all evening long. Owls are magnificent creatures!!
Happy Mother's Day, Susie!
I would love the right side drive, i was a mailman for 29 years, so i am very used to driving on that side.
Luke some of these scene shots are getting so damn good. Please make us your first short movie! I’m imaging something like a Stephen King creepy short story! Absolutely loved this episode!! Strength & Honor!
Glad yall are home,lone wolf Mt. Looks like where I live in ky. Love it.stay safe and take care of Susie.
I have a great home for Bento and live close by so you could visit anytime. Have a herd of land cruisers and can always use 1 more. Let me know. Thanks, Ken
Nice kick back and relax video.
Funny thing, I live in the Mohave Desert in Arizona and yes, it is raining right now which is unusual but very appreciated (fills Lake Mead and the Colorado River and the Aquifer). So nice you got the owl sighting and photo! Yes, seeing the owl would be something to make one's day. Your videos are such fun to watch and learn from and just enjoy!
Your channel makes me drink a lot of coffee. I work outside every day and you’ve given me ideas on how I can drink coffee at work easier. Really enjoy your content, I vicariously camp by watching seems relaxing. Too many parasitic starving bugs to camp here in mid Georgia. I’m a new sub and I’ll be watching ! Coffee stove purchase coming soon 8
Paddling a canoe today and managed to fall into the lake when I was going to launch it on the W-Coast of Sweden.
It was so funny. 😂😂😂
You are so blessed Luke. Love your videos as I watch and enjoy the outdoors through your experiences when I cannot get out there. Never been to North Carolina but have been to The Great Smokey Mountains in Tennesee. Such beautiful area of the US. I live in Washington State. You and your wife must come up here to the amazing rainforests. Camp in Olympic National Park. Van camping in our national forests. Welcome to my paradise and favorite place in the universe. Try our coffee up here. Cheers to you.
With all the horrible events that have transpired lately, it is so wonderful to see a good person enjoying their life :) I hope you do another ' bigfoot' video :)
Gotta love these WNC surprise Tstorms! S&H👍
It's always good to have you back
I love the sound of a good thunderstorm, and love that tarp going to go over and watch the tent by naturhike video you have up sounds strange . enjoyed this raining adventure Luke as always
Love love love your videos. My niece is in Japan with her husband, he is stationed there and now he is in Alaska for a month so my niece is alone in Japen on base, but doing well
The best to you Luke...Have Fun😊😊😊😊
Who in the world would just show up at someone else's home? As always, wonderful video. Absolutely adore the rain.
A small family company, with a very small line of products, makes a very similar rain jacket, with a zipper, for a very affordable price. Their trekking poles are amazing as well! Montem is the company.
Great video, Luke. Strength and honor @
My wife and I have lived here in E Tn Mts our whole lives. Shes from here and I still have to tell her just because it says 15-20% chance of rain doesnt mean it will rain but could. Its like that everyday for 9 months outta the year. Always plan for rain. Spring til fall its litterally hit or miss with isolated t-storms and rain.
JAPAN??????
THERE'S GONNA BE A WAR OVER THERE!!!!!
ANOTHER ONE OF SUZY'S BRILLIANT IDEAS????
Love all your information on camping gear. Have you ever shown how you clean and repack your equipment?
I would use it for day use only - not overnight. I do not consider it to be a 4 season tent. But I do like it based on size and would put a chair on the inside, and it should be easy to clean with no floor.
brilliant sound ominous thunder all good!
I love the ominous music!
I like that idea of a Japan trip!
Dude! That great grey owl!
Great stuff. Oh my, a rainstorm. I'll quickly set up a 10x5m tarp with an egg scrambler, coffee maker and bacon crisper. In real life, I've got 50mph winds, pissing rain and I set up a black bin bag against a tree and rock. Love your stuff dude. Keep going🏴💪❤️
No venomous snakes? Are you forgetting about timber rattle snakes, eastern diamond back rattle snakes, coral snakes, Pygmy rattle snakes, and cottonmouths? Did you misspeak? ✌🏼❤️
Well that's Suzie gone, long live Bento!
Good Luke! Can't wait to see your adventure video in Utah with Suzie. Glad you let some know about the Map Location and your settings. Some ppl always want to think they know it all 😂
You Are Amazing And Suzie. And I Say You Keep The Vehicle She doesnt Like And Let Her Keep The One Your driving swap And Enjoy the drive camp😊
Bring on the Storms !!!! I'm a Kansas GIRL !!!!
I should go to sleep because I have work tomorrow (today) but... Luke is out playing in storms again, so of course Im gonna watch!
Love the cinematography in your videos 🖤 Do you never worry about lightning hitting a tree near you? Id like to not worry about that.
Why do you park so far from your tarp site ??
Awesome journey for ya'll out west! Both there and in YOUR neck of the woods are two place I wanna photograph!
Luke tell Susie she has to "suck it up" and learn to love Bento. XD
Just so you know Luke, Helikon also makes a standard UL windbreaker with a full front zipper. It's called Tramontane.
Do you have both ? Hard to decide for me...
What are the differences -only the zipper and the Logo ?
Aww I hope you can have another trip in the Japanese truck. I was wondering what was going on with it thought you were getting it ready for some over nighters. Oh well it is what it is.
Happy mother's day to your wifey.
Japan: Soto owns a campsite with specialty gear! You should check it out. Also, there are numerous “re-sell” stores, that have primo camping gear….Don’t laugh, but I think the store name is “Hard-off”. Yes. Used books are “Book-Off”. Good stuff!
Some thoughts…why not ride out the storm in your truck…and why not park the truck closer to the tarp set up so u don’t have to walk back and forth so much for so far
The good news is that Bento has really good resell value, with the right person it's almost blank check levels of resell, but you certainly won't lose money if you decide to seek a vehicle that suits your family a bit better.
I saw an owl 3 or 4 months ago in our neighbors tree,, I actually got a video of it watching us.. so cool... i was a little concerned about our little dogs,, but the owl didn't seem interested in anything.. It was just chilling for awhile then flew off.. another great thunderstorm video! and also i enjoy all your reviews.. 👍
Luke Bento been a right hand drive and besides being highly sought after Toyota 4×4 would easily sell here in Australia!!
You’re right I never disclose my whereabouts including my home or cabin lol nice move 👍😎
As far as traveling to the mts of Colorado and Utah, I had much rather have the Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee hiking and camping.
👍👍 be safe. ...Alan in 🇨🇱
UK Europe use for that popup tent, the mongar is good for MTB backpacking and with that extension and an added jack vent you have a hot tent possibility.
Nice video mate
Adventurers learn new things, take risks, expand out of small boxes. Keep the Bento, man. Susie, it takes a bit but you will get it. MILLIONS of people have before you, soo, yeah, git your learn on. That Bento rocks.
Approaching thunderstorm? Stay in the truck until it passes!
Man, if you ever taught classes on setting up a tarp cover, I'd love to take them 🤘👍
