You must walk double the mileage showing us all your incoming/outgoing hiking! The amount of work and effort you put into each video does not go unnoticed. Thank you. I also liked your owl story. I love it when I can hear a visiting owl or two at night. 🦉
Kent Survival, Outdoor boys, Age of North, Mav are also some other amazing camping channels just like this.
Kent, prepares awesome food!
I always use a shield on my stove setups, glad to see a channel that does as well. Good job on the video. 👍
Thanks for showing me a great trip. I especially liked the story of the owl n deer. I’ve been fortunate enough to work in the western Canadian oil patch. Where we get off the highway and see things that no one else is lucky enough to. I’ve had ravens sit on my truck mirror,wondering what I’m having for lunch. Moose stick her head into the window and ask me to turn the page,cuz I’m reading to slow a wolf that I’ve known for 6 years,a little lake that I get water from every winter. He will make a path in the snow,just to show me things I would have missed. First flowers of the year,little beaver dam.every year I just have to think that he’s glad to see me again
I love the wind in the trees!! Thank you so much for what you do for so many that can’t go anymore!👍🏽
Surprised to actually see a fire in the episode.... nice 😎👍🔥🔥🔥
I would love to see you test different fire starting gear especially in the environment you are in 😎👍🔥
Once again I am on chemo, but thankfully I have a new video from Luke to watch. Cheers dude.👍
I don't know you but I will keep you in my prayers
Thank you for your kind note. Prayers are always appreciated. 🤙
Me too....prayers for you and your family. We must stick together!!
Thank you very much. It’s been tough road, ever since coming out of a chemically induced coma back in 2010.
@@ReasontoLiveAdventureswow u definitely going through hardship all the best to you.
Luke is so experienced and just dialed into this lifestyle. It's fun to watch his adventures and I learn something new, literally, from every video. Lone Wolf Mountain is very beautiful country to spend time in. The gear reviews are an added bonus while watching the camping 🏕.
Welcome to the UA-cam Family Bernie and Bolly ❤🥰🐾❤🥰🐾🙏
I think it will snow for your next adventure.
This was a wonderful video. I love your photography at the end of the video. that tiny little owl was amazing.
Thank you for taking us along with you. I miss camping, I don’t think my old bones would like sleeping on the ground. And my new knees, Do not like anything touching them. Like the ground. So to get my camping fix, I watch your videos. So again, thank you for taking us along.
Kathy
Luke is amazing. I really appreciate him and the information that he provides for outdoor activities... I get scared for him sometimes, but I know he can handle himself....so much happens in those mountains...
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Dayton Ohio in the house.. Keep doing what you do Luke, you are an inspiration to people that cannot get out and do that
Couldn’t agree more. Uk 🇬🇧
There's a Waffle House right between the Base and the Meijer's there. It had an armed security officer overnight on the weekends because it got rowdy. A guy came into the Waffle House, sat down and ate a Waffle sandwich 🥪 😋 and then bolted out the door without paying. The security guy tried chasing him and actually fired a shot in the air to try to get the guy to stop. The guy heard the shot, thought he was being fired on so he drew his concealed carry pistol, spun around, and mag dumped the security guy. The security mag dumped return fire in turn. Wright Patterson Air Force Base thought it was a terrorist attack on the Base so they scrambled their Response Team (SWAT?) and all of their Military Police 🚔. Meanwhile, local Police, Sheriff's, State Troopers, and basically everyone on duty also responded code 3. Everyone in the Waffle House was watching the show as the area was overrun with first responders and even helicopters. Both of these guys mag dumped each other in the middle of the road, and neither one scored a single hit. They both went to jail. True story. Shout out to Wright Patterson Air Force Base!!!!
Luke, I have to say that you have more cajones than most hiking/camping/gear testers on UA-cam. My hat is off to you!!!
I love the little owl story!! I love seeing one sooo small. 😅😅
Nothing better than getting a coffee for bed and relising there’s a new video from Luke
Another brilliant vid Luke, I'm laid up at the moment over here in England with broken ribs and a damaged hip so you're vids keep me going, keep up the fantastic work👍🏻👍🏻 take care👍🏻👍🏻
I watch a lot of these camping videos, keen as I am on the outdoors here in Australia, but I have to say yours are the best mate. You’ve a great articulate style, your videos are inspiring and educational, and very entertaining. Stay safe and keep doing what you’re doing . Love it!
I hope your well, and I so enjoy your videos now then before! Thanks!
"Green Forest "Very Beautiful and the colors, scenery Perfect!!! Snow was the icing of everything Stay Safe and Healthy ALOHA From Hawaii ❤❤❤❤
Hi, I am new to the channel and I want to say a big thank you Luke. I have watched a couple of your videos and I love them , I love been outdoors. I have alit of catching up to do with your adventures. Thank you for bringing them to us. 😊
I love nature . The owl story is awesome. Love your videos. God bless you and keep you safe.
Thank You Luke For Sharing Adventure Walk Out Safely And Get Home To Suzie Safe
Watching from Australia 🇦🇺. It is summer here and the snow makes me feel a little bit cooler. Bring on winter ❄️ please. 😊
I wonder what that food company means by cottage and shepherd's pie in the same package. Here in the uk Shepherd's pie is made with lamb and cottage pie is made with beef. Good video luke ❤❤
True maybe it has both.
My immediate first thought as I saw it, was fuming to myself 🤣
What ever you do don't buy S-Pie from Wal-Mart. Three bites and it went in the trash. Totally disgusting. @@JamieK-G
@janinepyke oh I didn't know it had different names for different meat in it!!
The forest looks so beautiful with the snow on it
That moment with the paper towel diffuser was videographer gold. And a subtle homage to improvising. And it made a massive difference. I assume it’s LED so no chance of burning. Nice job Luke.
Snow on the ground but everything is still so green, Beautiful scenery Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks!
I love watching all of your shows
Thanks for making your videos brother, I truly appreciate all your work that goes into making them. I learn something new everytime I watch one.
I was a Boy Scout in the 1960s we were at summer camp at camp Sabattus in New York and I was making pancakes that morning on an open fire and next thing I know I heard the scoutmaster saying Frank duck your head and I did and this white tail deer cleared the fire pit and me cooking pancakes, followed by two other ones including a fun. It was very interesting.
I love this forest! Thank you so much for sharing this adventure!
Yep. Talking about falling trees…. People seem to think widow-makers are only trees that are dead that come down. But they can easily be perfectly healthy live trees too. I’ve seen massive live pine trees in Colorado that have been snapped in half due to microbursts/sheer winds, etc. And these tree s were massive. Easily 3-4’ in diameter. It’s important to consider the lean of the trees you choose to set up near. And even that is no guarantee. But helps your odds of not being crushed. Stay safe out there everyone.
Hey Luke, what a gorgeous area for your overnighter, really love that forrest! Thank you for sharing your frosty adventures…S&H 🇺🇸
One of the more enjoyable outings, and it is especially nice to see you use so many of the newer items that have been featured by you this Winter. Thank you as always, and my hiking storeroom thanks you as well for all the great ideas/items shared with us,
Loved seeing your Eastern Screech Owl picture. Lucky you!
LOVE the compact camp light tripod....that would have many uses even at home. That was SMART to use the air pump as a fire bellows🤣
You’re the King of camping gadgets!
luke keeps it real all day every day, appreciate the mixed coffee cuz we all have packets laying around begging to be made into a delicious concoction
Gorgeous camp spot Luke nicely tucked in amongst the trees with your set up. Thanks for sharing your camp out always enjoyed .
Yessir that fire build was smooth! I like your routine of tarp separate from tent.
Hahaha! When you pulled out that light and opened it. I thought you were going to set up a thumper. Ole Luke here is about to call in a sandworm. As if the incoming weather isn't enough to deal with!
Yourself, Haze outdoors and TA outdoors. Best 3 camping/ bushcraft channels on UA-cam. 👍
I do actually remember the dear passing by your camp. I have one Little own story. It was just minding its own business in a ruin. But the thing that makes me laugh, is the UK’s Little owl, has a really Grumpy look. 👀 makes me laugh, if I’m lucky enough too spot one. They are small hence the name and they blend in so well. 😂😂❤❤❤🇬🇧🤷♀️🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
Nice seeing you again, God Bless.
Cool owl story! Cute little guy.
Owls the symbol of wisdom Luke.
Freakish snow storm hit here last night dumping 3-4 inches of which 50% has melted already, the good ol' high desert. We have three kinds of Owls here, Burrowing, Barn and Great Horned..never know when they'll grace you with their presence. Tarp/tent scenario..cracks me up. Nice video and presentation, thanks.
Hi Luke! Thanks for sharing that neat adventure! SO stoked you had your owl encounter! I've related in a comment for another video, how we had a little owl like that in our yard, and it was in no way afraid of us! SO COOL! That air pump and that neat stove are cool! You have to let us know what you think of them in a review episode! I have to admit that I am NOT a coffee person. BUT I did get some of the Taster's Nasty Hazlenut and the aroma is SUPER. Can't wait until the next adventure!
I love owls and that was a great capper to the video.
I can’t believe how well organized you are. Everything has a bag of its own. I’ve tried that on longer hikes but when the third day comes and i am tired by bag is usually a mess 😅
Luke a couple years ago when you was hiking in the AT. You showed an owl that followed you through the whole trail in and coming out remember that?? What’s with you and the owls. Pretty cool though
Have you ever pitched the tent with a somewhat heavy shock cord to try to take up slack when the fabric stretches.
I love my Akto too. Even if i never take it with me and I choose either the Nammatj 2 GT or the Nallo 2. 😊
I flavor all coffee with Hazlenut. Its a celebration with every cup!
Luke,
Mother Earth sent you a very skillful watcher. That owl was sent to watch over your home , Mother Earth protected your home while you were away in Fla. returning her respect to you. The same way you love and respect her. It’s always the subtle little moments, when you’re able to experience, that make you feel connected.
S&H to you my friend
Hi Luke I love your videos, my son's name is Luke and I also call him Lucas from time to time,I suffer with chronic pain and I'm waiting to see a rheumatologist,I can't go for walks at the moment but when I watch your videos I really feel like I'm there out in nature which is my favourite place to be, hopefully soon, I live in county Wexford in Ireland and I'm surrounded by forests it's so beautiful, thank you for tranquility and peace 😊
Did you changed anything in the camera or contrast? The recording and illumination in this episode is fantastic.
This is such a beautiful place.
Good video, I really enjoyed it. Tent size is a big thing for me when I look at them. I am 6’2” and 230lbs so I need to make sure I can fit.
I like to watch when I work away and I miss being in the hills even the rain & cold, plus im a kit monster - but you beat me hands down lol
Another great video, Lee of Buxton England...
Love those snowy weather videos, shame we haven't had too much snow this year!
Silly question, Luke, but why do you always put your tent so far away from your tarp setup? Here we always put a tent entrance under the tarp overhang. It keeps the doorway from getting wet if it rains so you don't have to worry about the interior / contents of your tent getting wet. It also allows you to have a wind break at one end of the tarp.
I liked your camping.🏕️
As for me, there is not the experience that camped on a snowy day.⛄️
It is very hard, but thinks that it is a beautiful experience.❄️
You have a high technique.✨
I enjoy camping in Japan, too.🇯🇵
Your video gave me a hint!
I appreciate splendid camping.☺️
Yea Luke is very good at what he does I enjoy his vedeo
hopefully we’ll see you down the road. Thank you for sharing your video.
You have the greatest experiences. Thanks for sharing. Love seeing the snow. It’s been a lackluster Winter here.
Love the video. It's a bit surreal that you're at 5000+ feet when the highest peak in England is around 3200 ft and the highest in the UK is around 4500 ft! It shows the vast outdoors that you're blessed with. Love the channel. Keep making the videos! 🏴🏴🇺🇸
We have a few here in New Englad that height, 5000 feet and then Mount Washington pretty equal to his Grandfather Mountain. Both are amazing. Hard to p8ck a fav. Ours are not maybe as road accessible. I noticed that when I went all over his area for three weeks about a decade ago. Allot more road access. Here the presidential are all hiking and pretty brutal terrain. Buried in snow as well. He lives 8n a more Goldie Locks climate to me atleast, especially now here in New England summers are so hot now, so more like theirs.
Thanks for the video, I really needed a Luke fix tonight.👍
You are very brave for camping there host keep safe watching from uk
Thanks Luke get a look at that tent it's the bomb...4 season! So yea purchased my four season tent finally after great thought and research. Settled on the Kuiu storm star. Great price and value. Customer service is very good. Satisfied all my needs and should be great service throughout years to come.
I'm going to talk to Luke, But I'm Speaking to everyone. Luke, you mentioned that the tent material will "Stretch" and that there is a lack of space in this tent. I have a question about how to take up the slack automatically when it stretches. I have some small 10" Bungee's with a hook on each end. If you tie a Loop in the Guy Lines at about 11" to 12" down from the tent and hook a 10" Bungee to the loop in the line and the loop on the tent will that be enough to take the sag out of the material? If not, what about a Double Bungee on the line?
About Owls . We hear Owls at our house all night long. And they are great fun to listen to.
Dig the tent so far. Nice scenery to.
Nice 👍 Pole lamp and another good 👍 video
Winter has been terrible here in northwest Louisiana as well. We have been in the 80's most of February and even hit 90 degrees a few times. I love watching your videos Luke. Getting to see snow camping trips in the mountains is awesome.
Interesting video. I have a similar tent to your ATKO,. It is a Tarptent Moment DW that I use for winter camping. Because its ends are supported by A-shaped carbon fiber struts it is much more resistant to snow buildup at each end than your ATKO. As well I ran the optional Crossing Pole UNDER the fly ( pole shortened 5 inches) and secure it beneath the fly with shortened double sided Velcro cable ties sewn and seam sealed to the underside of the fly centerline. It is for snow load and wind stability.
The Moment DW has low end vents and high ridge pole vents is well ventilated.
TIP: Try a Trail Designs Sidewinder titanium Caldera Cone stove for ESBIT tablets, alcohol and, with the optional INFERNAL insert, a super hot "gassifier" wood stove. VERY light, compact when rolled up and super efficient at containing heat.
Great location, great gear, good coffee and a great camping buddy - as I camp vicariously through your video. It's always fun to stop by and see where you're going to take us! Whoa, that tripod thingy is sure clever looking - oh it's a upright light - like it! "Blinded by the light" I think I'd be real happy with those freeze dried meals seem to have good variety. So is it best to use alcohol as for fire starter in condition of wind and cold? Love the owl story! Isn't it neat feeling sometimes that animals may understand you? I swear my cat Callie MdNally is meowing saying "C'mon c'mon, are you coming" as she looks back at me following her down the hallway. Thanks for another great video excursion Luke, always enjoy them so much! When's Susie coming back, adventure together soon?
Shepherd's Cottage pie?? Packit Gourmet clearly doesn't know that Shepherd's pie contains lamb and Cottage pie has beef.
It might contain both
Hi Luke, I really enjoyed this trip. You are my entertainment for the night. Thank you so much. See you next week. Take care, tell Susie I said hi. 😊🙋🏻♀️
Love your style great gear, awsome what your wearing great color coordination awesome video's always.
If it turned high winds I would prefer your akto over just about anything else, it's a bunker when the wind is howling. Good video and glad to see one in action. Thanks.
My Akto had a thorough testing in Norwegian October. One big storm was so scary the campsite owner insisted on me being in a hut for safety. I left the Akto out as a test. It is officially tougher than me.
The grounsheet shown is bigger than the official " footprint". In heavy rain you dont want water funneled inside.
The rigging at each end vent is wrong. The guy lines each side should also be rigged better. You only get big storm performance if the rigging is correct and tight.
Love your videos Luke. Curiosity though strikes me as to why you didn't tape the wind blowing in the trees and on your tent. That's s little more exciting than watching you make coffee.
I love these videos but just so you know shepherd's pie is lamb, cottage pie is beef, i have never heard of them together, 😋
The perfectly synced audio to the walking even though it's a single camera you are moving around getting all those shots. Idk how you do that. Great quality camera there too.
Great video and really appreciate the change now in music !
Anyways I have been eyeing the small Flextail Gear ZERO pump. But 63 bucks now ouch. But I love ultralight stuff. Especially for my small EDC kit.
I have a Wood stove we heat with solely and the best thing I ever bought was a ZIPPO air blower. Just OMG. I was using the Pocket Bellows for a year prior. Fan on fire is a game changer seriously in so many ways, especiallyon damp wood.
A game changer just like for me a small an air mattress pump out camping was. I bought Flextail Gear's first pump they made and used it for years. I upgraded a few years ago to the bigger battery with light, bigger unit. I never use the light, lol, I love my Olite Obulb because of the red light feature and I love my mini Goal Zero Lanturn I don't even think they make the same model anymore. I got the bag lights you recommend on the strip and I love those too, and that's really enough.
With the zero I like you can replace the battery. That is another plus. I hope you tell us what you think.
Hilleberg Akto is a small, low-profile, 1-person tent. Materials, pole selection, zips, and workmanship are very good. This is a dependable little tent to go mild to wild. It is relatively lightweight, compact, and easy to set up. It will handle higher winds as well as shoulder season 3+ and can be pushed into 4th season. For the full-on real winter demanding conditions... design and size wise there are limitations. Consider things like having a warmer R-value, larger sleeping bag and pad will take up alot more space inside the tent, plus anything winter stuff, water, etc. you bring inside as well with you. Akto is a well proven tent. Kind of expensive. Good thing to know is that it meets a high standard and delivers on high quality.
Note: Luke does not appear to have set up the guylines on his Akto correctly. Not certain as to why...
@@alaskaraftconnection-alask3397 Indeed, he did set it up the wrong way. No wonder the tent sags down on him. I've written a comment related to this user error, but I think it got deleted because I can't find it.
I love 🦉 🦉 🦉 owls.
Luke really enjoying your channel.been here 2 weeks.I’d love to have the time to go camping ⛺️ so until I can I’m watching you have fun. What’s your back ground Luke. Uk 🇬🇧
at 26:39, you show temperature of 10F/12.2C, but I think you left out the negative sign (-), because 10º F is -12.2º C, just saying. Also, since your twig stove works so well, why do you also need an alcohol stove? Or put another way, why only carry two kinds of stoves? Why not more?
Luke why exactly are you not making a ridgeline when setting up a tarp, but rather having cords leading from each tieout? Is it to save time?
As always everything I watch on your videos I watch all the way through of course I am a subscriber unfortunately I suffer from bipolar disorder so I do not work I spend most of my day on UA-cam watching things I subscribe to you yes I leave a boring life but thanks to you and everybody on UA-cam that I subscribe to I have a great day
Sounds like the weather we've been getting in Washington State on the eastern side. Not much snow, but wind and rain. Gusts have been over 50 mph and cold! The owl you showed, looks to be an Eastern Screech Owl. We have great horned and barred owls here in Washington, and they are fun to listen to.
A Wonderful escape
The owl picture had me cracking up
We live in a magnificent part of the country Luke. Pretty sure I've camped in almost the exact location a few times myself. Almost always have Deer pass through just before dark.
Hes done it again folks another amazing entertaining informational video!❤
Many thanks Luke!
Thank you Luke,, I sure enjoyed this video...
Right away I noticed the beautiful, sharp camera shots. Very nice. A great video as usual.
The guy line configuration is incorrect. The middle fly pullout should be staked to the ground so that the lines form a "W". Without the center guy line tensioned, the tent would not perform well in either high winds nor a snow load. I have had an Akto since 2003, and, yes, it soaks up water, and it does stretch, but it's much stronger than polyester which doesn't stretch much, but is weaker for the same weight.
The alcohol stove looks exactly like one called the "Paco", or "Palco" which we (tried) to sell in an outfitter where I worked in the early 1990s. People would admire its looks, then pick it up and immediately put it back. It was HEAVY! I thought about buying it just to try it, but...
It was HEAVY!
Nice to see the design in use.
