I slept in my tent with my dog through a storm just like that last summer. the next morning, I left everything and went home. when I came back the next morning after another storm had gone through the previous night, the tent had collapsed. So glad I listened to my gut and didn't try to ride out a second night in the tent in that kind of weather. it was nerve racking to say the least... but I was hell bent on having the experience and now I can say I did that!! and lived... my dog slept right through the whole thing...haaa!! nothing bothers him at night...
I’m really scared of storms, so as a means to overcome it, I’m taking the exposure therapy route by watching videos of people who literally camp during this sort of weather. Seeing how enthusiastic and calm you were reassured me that my fear isn’t something to become terrified of. Nature isn’t our enemy. Thanks for your bravery!
Ikr? I feel like I’d freak out. I’m not afraid of storms really, but it’s different to experience it inside your home where you know you’re protected, and in a camping tent 😰 I don’t think I’d react as calmly as he did to a tornado warning 😂
there's nothing that tops an old home with a front porch built for summer storms sitting on a swing bench or a rocking chair experiencing the storm without many of its dangers
When I can’t fall asleep, I watch your adventures. I especially enjoy the storms and your various tents. I feel like I and all your fans are with you hiking or setting up camp! Soon I’ll be living in a travel trailer near a creek and hiking in the forests of Arizona.
ive started listening to luke just before i sleep and funnily enough i search especially for the stormy weather ones...it'a a nice peacefull way to fall asleep with lukes voice and a storm.
26:49 Luke laughs in the face of Nature's down pour. I love watching rainy adventures. Thanks so much Luke for all you do. Here is to all you rain lovers.
Hey Luke, could you consider making a video for all your tips on pitching a tarp. You’ve developed so many good techniques it would be a treasure trove for some of us viewers! Love the adventures as always!
Wish I had been there with you! I love all kinds of weather. Unfortunately I live in urban So. Calf. near the beach so we almost never get thunder storms. Our normal rainfall is only about 10 to 15 inches per year so by watching your videos I can live vicariously through you. Keep up the great work and keep those storms coming!
I love damp gray days along with rainy days for some reason if your paying attention you find plants or rocks that stick out and make themselves more available to the eye which you just never see on.bright days Great videos great advise living vicariously thru you is awesome You make it seem like you talking to me four feet away ......keep up the great camera work as well
I'm on the fence on a back surgery, lower back issues, leg numbness and weakness. How did you come to your decision to get surgery? Thank you 👍🏼. Hope you are doing well and aren't in anymore pain. ✝️
My brother and I, when we were younger and camping on the beach, we were caught in an all out monsoon it seemed. We could feel the ocean water coming up under our tent, and the rain pounding us from above with wind beating the snot out of us. I still love camping in the rain as an adult... but with a hammock and an extra large tarp in addition to the hammock cover. Love what you do, Luke! Be safe and keep up posting!
Me too.... Only Tony does not get the storms there the thunder and lightning. I think he said in the latest video that it's very rare that they have thunder. Just the rain and rain and rain and rain I love that channel too.
Man I love your videos so much. I watch one every night once I get in bed & have seen almost all of them. Some I've watched several times. I dream of being able to go out in the woods & brave the weather, the crazier the better, but have not done so yet. I just want to thank you for posting these videos because I thoroughly enjoy each of them. Happy camping brother
As I sit on my tail I truly love watching your channel. I became 100% disabled due to military service and use to love being out in my native Appalachian mountains. Your channel really does bring me peace.
Thank you for your service. I'm praying for you and others in your situation. This is what love is, giving life and limb for what you believe in. My dad was in WWII and Korea. He passed last year at 94. He was a jump master sgt, Airborne paratrooper. My dad loved the outdoors, fishing, hunting, and hiking. His favorite camping area was in the White mountains in Arizona. Thank you.
I have just come across one your vids and enjoyed it very much. I was a British Royal Marine Commando in the sixties and have lived out in the Jungle and the Desert. What surprised me in your vid was that you were using a small folding stove with Hexamine blocks. They were standard issue and we used them all the time when on Patrols etc etc. Yours had a slight modification but sixty years later, they have stood the test of time. There was one in our 24 hour Ration packs. I am going to scroll about and find more of your adventures. Stay safe.
I always make sure to use my surround sound headphones when watching your storm videos. The sounds of the rain on the tarp make it seem like I’m right there with ya! Cheers
Rain and a hot cup of coffee, yes indeed. I grew up in a Commercial fishing family and the trip to and from Alaska from Seattle is some of the best scenery. For me my happy time was dog watch. Sitting with the wheelhouse windows open, The heave smell of pine and salt water and a cup of hot coffee with the heavens laid out above as you just cant see them in a city or town. Sometimes Id hang my head out the window or even after watch in the predawn dark I would walk to the bow, Kneel and rest my head on my arms looking down at the bow cutting through the water. Sometimes the phosphorus was so thick it would light the wake up like a small flashlight. If we had Porpoise in on the bow you could track them and see there every movement. Then getting to share that with my daughter was the second happiest day of my life. Seeing her fall in love with the sea and nature as I did. True Happiness is sharing your bliss with those you love.
Hi Luke, I hope when you got home some hot food and a warm bath awaited! The only adventure I had this past seven days was to clean 26 years of junk and living out of our garage. My honey did quite the job sorting, and I did all the heavy lifting. We filled a 10x 7x4 dumpster full. We gave away anything useful.
Awesome! The joy of this channel is the demonstration in REAL weather conditions, and the expert advice on how you handle it. I thought you would have set up a more “closed” tent configuration, but you had that open to the elements! That water bucketing down from that corner is an example I hadn’t thought of, to funnel the water that way. Thanks Luke!
Sweet!!! I too love hiking & camping in the rain. My dad always called me his little puddle duck...Lol. Great video, as always!! Thanks for taking us along.
Hey Luke! Once you described your position, I knew your location. Beautiful spot & no worries, secret's safe! We only got pea size hail off the mountain. Wind carried off my trash can 😅! Outstanding rain gear and great video! Adventure, nothing like it! Appreciate you my friend!
Oh hell yeah! ! ! Luke, Tony, count me in: I LOVE trips in the rain. I'm from Seattle, Washington where most of us have webbed feet anyway, so yeah, the rain is never an issue. My wife hates the rain the thunder, but I love it. There is nothing like a hot meal, hot coffee and the sound of the rain pounding on the tarp or tent and free light show you get from mother nature. Thanks for sharing that hike with us all. Wish I'd been there with you! ! ! Brian
I remember a backpacking trip we went on in northern New Mexico. We got into a storm that dumped over an inch of hail in the ground. My sisters were freezing and my Dad made the right call. We all turned around and headed back to the car. Disappointed with the outcome, but I knew we did the right thing and avoided someone getting sick or hurt. That trip taught me exactly what you were talking about being flexible. Great trip, fun video! Thanks!
Amazing Adventure, loved it!!! I will start watching your videos more often, i truly loved it, love the rain and the storms and the camping, the tarps, the coffee. Great Video. Thank you so much for sharing.
All your videos always great to watch and learn from. I appreciate all your time on doing what you do for all of us viewers, thank you Luke and always be safe. Luis
This such a great video. I was a BSA scout leader for 10 years and we camped mostly in the rain. I love the sounds and smells of the forest when it rains and when you are hunkered down, you have a calm feeling that flows over you and a sense of adventure like no other! Again, what a great video!!!
Hey Luke, these are the videos that are adventurous! And i love them! Getting to see new areas in the forest, never know what you will find! Awesome share!
I've commented on that 10'x10' Aquaquest tarp before, but i can't say it enough - it's the perfect all around shelter. I've used mine in place of a tent or to extend our dry space at camp with other people. Best purchase ever. And that forest! Reminds me so much of the wet, mossy stuff we explore in the Pacific Northwest.
I also love tarps! Yes, I agree a tarp shelter can be pitched anywhere even with trees absent. I noted you never use hiking poles, manufactured or self made. Either can be used to set up an emergency shelter. I've used two lengths of willow branches to set up a Swedish ground shelter that will defy very strong winds. My survival bag in my van (full time van lifer) includes a safari 10X10 Aqua Quest and an emergency two-sided blanket from a ground sheet and for a visual rescue needed set up. I love your tarps color, and that of your apparel and pack. Great adventure with great survival advice...you rock, Luke!
When thunder roars, go indoors. Check out the lightning maps that dislpay current and not so great camping spots if thunder is predicted. High elevations like this video are not the safest of places. Cheers! ⚡
Hello I really enjoyed your videos I am a retired US Marine in the second Recon. Your Ventures are fun to watch bring back a lot of memories when I was young. At this present time I am totally living off the grid in middle of a forest have been for the last 9 years getting away from it all love the story about the rain yes it is fantastic here in Oregon we don't get much lightning especially along the coast but we do get some hellafied wind storms and Ice storms we see winds up to 70 miles to 100 miles an hour but my place Stands Strong it's not a cabin I have an A-frame and I have a canvas tent under the A-frame covered in tarps again enjoyed your videos.
Ancient Boreal Forests are gorgeous, definitely have to watch your step in them for sure. That was a wallop of a storm! Good stuff man glad you're safe.
That storm treated us similarly here in Matthews. We had maybe half hour of rain w/10 minutes of hail. But in our case, the sun popped right back out w/rainbows in tow. Be safe my friend !
Something so lovely about the sounds of fresh rain when you're tucked up warm in bed...this is one of the most realistic sounding I've heard, thank you!
God as my witness, I love the rain. I can't be out in it, I had a lightning experience. But the thunder and rain and storming...yeah...I feel ya there. Great video!
Hey Robert I love the rain also. I survived the World Trade Centers first Bombing by minutes and a month before 9/11 I was working on the 104 floor but was out for hip surgery and then 6 years ago I was diagnosed with a giant brain tumor. I am weak but hanging in there and I watch the OutDoorGearReview every night to help me sleep. I hope and pray I get to meet Luke one day. God Bless
@@ToniMattTony Wow, that is a lot of hardship. I suffer from Pompe disease and my daily driver is a wheelchair. I can't get out and do what Luke does so I live vicariously through him and Suzy. I smell the ozone with each strike, feel the warmth or cold of each drop and feel the chills in my bones from the ice and snow. I am envious. Sorry if I spelled your name wrong, Suzy. :P
Once again I am absolutely astounded by the high-quality Taster's Nasty content in Luke's videos. I love the over-night camps, the day trips, the honest dialogue, the cinematography, the musical conclusions, and of course the agenda-free gear reviews; but the Taster's Nasty content on this channel is off the hook. It keeps bringing me back again and again. Some rain, a tarp, and a cup of the Nasty is all a man needs to find peace in the great outdoors.
I think there's something almost genetic about being able to relax in a rain storm. Anciently, we knew instinctively, threats tend to hunker down during a rain storm, so you also can relax.
I'm always learning from watching your videos. Thank you. I have been camping since I was a little kid. But never paid any mind to it because the grownups do all the work. Now that I'm older. I enjoy camping even more but have noticed all the mistakes I've made with my gear. Watching your videos Has shown me how to buy the correct gear and enjoy my camping even more. Thank you very much.
Luke your so SOOO right sir, one,, too me your mindset makes or breaks you. Where others will fell you will flourish with the right one. An in the hour of your deepest darkness you " I pray so very hard, an know there will be a sunshine" if you keep pumping your knees! " this was a thing a sixth grade football couch told me." You never stop! My belief in the good Lord, my family, is what makes me believe in myself. So when you have an awesome excitement of being in the woods under dire circumstances, you pop out a five minute shelter an set your mind at ease an enjoy a so so cup of coffee. You sir are blessed!
Luke, thanks for all the work. I had a disaster at the races last weekend but really enjoyed the camping and thats very much down to you and Suzie. I'm going for a trip out tomorrow for a coffee in a local forest. Thanks man SP
Good video Brother. I wanna join the club lol. Rain and Inclement weather is my absolute favorite as well. There's just nothing like it. Especially on an Adventure. Stay safe out there..
Great video, Luke. Awesome stuff. 👍🏽 makes me want to get out and explore some of the mountains and bushlands in my local area down here in Australia. Thanks for the inspiration, mate. Cheers
Love all your videos, but especially your hiking and backpacking videos. This video gives me Les Stroud vibes, your camera skills have came a long way. Keep up the great work, looking forward to your future videos 👍🏻
Ive been blessed this past christmas with that Garmin watch. It was totally changed the way I hike in the backcountry. It helps me get away from pulling out the phone to navigate.
Be careful out there, black bears are not always afraid of people. A man that was very experienced like you said the same thing you did and was pulled from his tent in the night by a 500 lb. black bear and eaten. It only takes one time to end up dead. I always have bear spray and guns, it pays to be careful.
I need to get one of those tarps myself, but I'd probably go with a different Aquaquest model instead. I build my gearkit around optional visibility. There are high-vis items in the kit (including some items I can simply reverse to a reflective side), but the primary configuration is designed to blend in.
I spent quite a few years working for a ski area in northern New Mexico. Your comment about black bears being scared , reminded me of a couple of times while using a mulcher to stop some erosion. I had a 100 foot of hose stretched out and turned around to find a very curious bear about half way between me and the truck. They eventually walked away. But not before hanging out long enough to make me nervous. We were probably 5-6 miles from paved road or anything. Anyway just sharing fond memories
Enjoyed every minute of this trip. I've had some moments before, where I wondered if I was going to make it back one piece. At least I'd go out happy. 😁
Saying his final goodbye, drinking disgusting coffee, whilst a mega storm cell takes over....and Luke is laughing, saying it was a good_death lol!! does Suzy know she is married to a mad man ?! jk thx for the trip, awesome!
Cell phone gps even with an app like Gia is super dangerous in remote areas. There’s a reason search and rescue use high end stand alone units- they rescue people who get lost using phone gps on a regular basis
Hope you have a handgun with you when you go on these treks alone. It’s always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. 👍 Stay safe out there.
Thank you so much for listing all the gear! I love your jacket. No wonder it sold out on Amazon. I would also like to see your chart videos of different ways to hang tarp shelters.

I hear you. I've been known to cancel a camping trip because of a hint of a storm.

there's nothing that tops an old home with a front porch built for summer storms

I'm phobic of wasps and I doubt there is any exposure therapy for that.
When I can’t fall asleep, I watch your adventures. I especially enjoy the storms and your various tents. I feel like I and all your fans are with you hiking or setting up camp! Soon I’ll be living in a travel trailer near a creek and hiking in the forests of Arizona.

Yes!!!!!! Rain lovers!!
🍻 cheers
Keep it up Luke wish I could be there 👍
Anyone else use Luke's adventures as a vicarious way to get out? I do.
I sleep better, (when I do sleep), since watching a video in the evening. Very relaxing
Oh for sure! Love living vicariously through him. And l search them out when it's this EXCITING!!
@@Maywynsame! Relaxes me before bed
Hey Luke, could you consider making a video for all your tips on pitching a tarp. You’ve developed so many good techniques it would be a treasure trove for some of us viewers! Love the adventures as always!
I love a tarp myself. I know many setups. But I'd love to see some of Luke's set up tips and tricks. 👍
Yes and additionally how to setup tarps in flatlands with no trees. Maybe even a regular campsite
I'd love to see that as well.
I think he has done a tarp set up episode. It was a while ago.
Hes done a handful of tarp reviews and setup videos over the years just scroll down further
I hope you have longer filmed the rain and the storm 😮 I olmost fall in sleep 👍👍👍

Great videos great advise living vicariously thru you is awesome
You make it seem like you talking to me four feet away ......keep up the great camera work as well
Great to see someone else enjoying a good storm! I love camping in the rain and in thunderstorms, that truly makes me happy for some reason.
Yes .i enjoy it too for unknown reasons.
Aren't you afraid of camping in thunderstorms? What if lightning strikes u in the middle of the woods?
I have that same gene, too!
@@bhathaneef3979 He does mention that if he goes, he'll go happy!
This guy is always in a thunderstorm!!!
Hiking in the rain hits SO different. I love it. Mostly because there's no one else out!
+1
You’re either completely alone or chilling in silence with the other rain lovers!! :D
Glad to see you including metric temps. Many people around the world have no idea about imperial.
I am stuck in bed post my 6th back surgery. Thanks to your video, I can get out and about! I appreciate your hard work.
Speedy Recovery
6th back surgery? Ouch. Watching videos definitely helps with the pain. Stay strong!
Speedy recovery.
I've had 1 back surgery back in the mid 80's. Nothing fun about it but you will get through it. Good luck 👍 to you.
I'm on the fence on a back surgery, lower back issues, leg numbness and weakness. How did you come to your decision to get surgery? Thank you 👍🏼. Hope you are doing well and aren't in anymore pain. ✝️

Nothing beats a good rain storm. I don't mind being caught in one as long as I'm not getting wet. It's comfy and sometimes a little thrilling.

Thank You for taking us along on this adventure! !!
Good evening .Luke. I watch AB Camping all the time. ..thank you for the video's .i hope you and Susie are doing. Good.
Being out in the rain is my happy place, Luke, wiser words have never been spoken. 🌧 + me = 😁
How's this for wiser words. Jesus is the Only way by which mankind can be saved.
Wiser words. Being Properly Prepared (clothing, experience, common sense) leads to success.
I to love the rain. It makes you know your alive.
Snow is my happy place so the forest the two together while
The forest is also my happy place combine snow with woods and I am very happy oh strength and honor and respect
I love a good rain storm. Nothing makes you feel more alive and at peace

Hello I really enjoyed your videos I am a retired US Marine in the second Recon. Your Ventures are fun to watch bring back a lot of memories when I was young. At this present time I am totally living off the grid in middle of a forest have been for the last 9 years getting away from it all love the story about the rain yes it is fantastic here in Oregon we don't get much lightning especially along the coast but we do get some hellafied wind storms and Ice storms we see winds up to 70 miles to 100 miles an hour but my place Stands Strong it's not a cabin I have an A-frame and I have a canvas tent under the A-frame covered in tarps again enjoyed your videos.
Ancient Boreal Forests are gorgeous, definitely have to watch your step in them for sure. That was a wallop of a storm! Good stuff man glad you're safe.
I just love that build-up before a storm , It's calming in a way for me and that kind of weather is perfect ,with all the winds
That storm treated us similarly here in Matthews. We had maybe half hour of rain w/10 minutes of hail. But in our case, the sun popped right back out w/rainbows in tow. Be safe my friend !
Something so lovely about the sounds of fresh rain when you're tucked up warm in bed...this is one of the most realistic sounding I've heard, thank you!
God as my witness, I love the rain. I can't be out in it, I had a lightning experience. But the thunder and rain and storming...yeah...I feel ya there. Great video!
Must be a Bailey thing. Gotta love that rain!
@@rbaileyrb lol. You have an awesome name!
Hey Robert I love the rain also. I survived the World Trade Centers first Bombing by minutes and a month before 9/11 I was working on the 104 floor but was out for hip surgery and then 6 years ago I was diagnosed with a giant brain tumor. I am weak but hanging in there and I watch the OutDoorGearReview every night to help me sleep. I hope and pray I get to meet Luke one day. God Bless
@@ToniMattTony Wow, that is a lot of hardship. I suffer from Pompe disease and my daily driver is a wheelchair. I can't get out and do what Luke does so I live vicariously through him and Suzy. I smell the ozone with each strike, feel the warmth or cold of each drop and feel the chills in my bones from the ice and snow. I am envious. Sorry if I spelled your name wrong, Suzy. :P
@@robertbailey4454 you too! Bailey clan and rain appreciation from across the globe!
Once again I am absolutely astounded by the high-quality Taster's Nasty content in Luke's videos. I love the over-night camps, the day trips, the honest dialogue, the cinematography, the musical conclusions, and of course the agenda-free gear reviews; but the Taster's Nasty content on this channel is off the hook. It keeps bringing me back again and again. Some rain, a tarp, and a cup of the Nasty is all a man needs to find peace in the great outdoors.
😂 thanks for the shoutout buddy. Just got back from the happy place too. ❤️AB
Luke needs a Bruce😁
28:47 the mighty Lone Wolf logo appears in the form of a light reflection!
Bruce here brucey! That's a good boy Bruce!
Love the sound of falling rain.
We sit on our patio to listen to rain drops falling on our roof.
I think there's something almost genetic about being able to relax in a rain storm. Anciently, we knew instinctively, threats tend to hunker down during a rain storm, so you also can relax.
Would have been a great night to camp! I sleep so good when the rain beats on the tent 👍
I'm always learning from watching your videos. Thank you. I have been camping since I was a little kid. But never paid any mind to it because the grownups do all the work. Now that I'm older. I enjoy camping even more but have noticed all the mistakes I've made with my gear. Watching your videos Has shown me how to buy the correct gear and enjoy my camping even more. Thank you very much.
Production quality on this video was fantastic Luke! Loved it!
Luke your so SOOO right sir, one,, too me your mindset makes or breaks you. Where others will fell you will flourish with the right one. An in the hour of your deepest darkness you " I pray so very hard, an know there will be a sunshine" if you keep pumping your knees! " this was a thing a sixth grade football couch told me." You never stop! My belief in the good Lord, my family, is what makes me believe in myself. So when you have an awesome excitement of being in the woods under dire circumstances, you pop out a five minute shelter an set your mind at ease an enjoy a so so cup of coffee. You sir are blessed!
Luke, thanks for all the work. I had a disaster at the races last weekend but really enjoyed the camping and thats very much down to you and Suzie. I'm going for a trip out tomorrow for a coffee in a local forest. Thanks man SP
Do you take emergency things with you in your bag? Maybe extra snacks or something in case you get stuck or lost?
I bet that forest is very creepy at dusk, especially by yourself. You're the man for doing this.
More like naturally beautiful.
Depends how many Japanese horror films you've seen 😂
Love the rain sound on the tarp so crisp, puts me to sleep, thank you for all your hard work, be safe, hope you do not get sick from the cold and rail
That looks like the CCC forests we have around here. Replanted in straight rows by people with machines after logging.
That's what I was thinking.
Yes, old logging roads, trees planted in something resembling rows, and most all of the trees are 'young' - certainly not an old growth forest.
Good video Brother. I wanna join the club lol. Rain and Inclement weather is my absolute favorite as well. There's just nothing like it. Especially on an Adventure. Stay safe out there..
4:37 it really looks like someone standing in the distance by a tree. I know it probably is just another tree, but man it looks creepy af! 😳
I noticed that too. If figure it was Bigfoot.
I'll have to say you have the experance to make a day like this work and you enjoy it. Gutseeee
This storm would've been a perfect test night 😂
Hi Luke, I am also a big fan of the rain so this was a perfect video for me, thank you.
Great video, Luke. Awesome stuff. 👍🏽 makes me want to get out and explore some of the mountains and bushlands in my local area down here in Australia. Thanks for the inspiration, mate. Cheers
AB Camping is a must see. His dog Bruce is a border collie and he is a great mate for the trek.
Love all your videos, but especially your hiking and backpacking videos. This video gives me Les Stroud vibes, your camera skills have came a long way. Keep up the great work, looking forward to your future videos 👍🏻
Ive been blessed this past christmas with that Garmin watch. It was totally changed the way I hike in the backcountry. It helps me get away from pulling out the phone to navigate.
Be careful out there, black bears are not always afraid of people. A man that was very experienced like you said the same thing you did and was pulled from his tent in the night by a 500 lb. black bear and eaten. It only takes one time to end up dead. I always have bear spray and guns, it pays to be careful.
Been watching Tony and Bruce since he started. Love them and now I’m glad I found you! Enjoyed this very much and can’t wait for more.
I need to get one of those tarps myself, but I'd probably go with a different Aquaquest model instead. I build my gearkit around optional visibility. There are high-vis items in the kit (including some items I can simply reverse to a reflective side), but the primary configuration is designed to blend in.
I spent quite a few years working for a ski area in northern New Mexico. Your comment about black bears being scared , reminded me of a couple of times while using a mulcher to stop some erosion. I had a 100 foot of hose stretched out and turned around to find a very curious bear about half way between me and the truck. They eventually walked away. But not before hanging out long enough to make me nervous. We were probably 5-6 miles from paved road or anything. Anyway just sharing fond memories
TARPS, you got to be kidding.
WOW!! What a ride ! Thank you Luke!
Enjoyed every minute of this trip. I've had some moments before, where I wondered if I was going to make it back one piece. At least I'd go out happy. 😁
Great attitude 👍
Nature requires patience and respect, just like people. Enjoyed this video. Not much rain in Southern California. I
also watch Tony's videos.
Saying his final goodbye, drinking disgusting coffee, whilst a mega storm cell takes over....and Luke is laughing, saying it was a good_death lol!! does Suzy know she is married to a mad man ?! jk thx for the trip, awesome!
Thanks!
Thank you for the support my friend.
S&H
- Luke
@@TheOutdoorGearReview No problem thank you for your show very interesting God bless
Cell phone gps even with an app like Gia is super dangerous in remote areas. There’s a reason search and rescue use high end stand alone units- they rescue people who get lost using phone gps on a regular basis
Good point.
My favorite episode. Love that degree of storm camping! Cheers!
Hope you have a handgun with you when you go on these treks alone. It’s always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. 👍 Stay safe out there.
What a forest. Stunning unique and magical like tales or like horror movies.
I find the sound of rain so relaxing I use sleep sound apps to fall asleep to
Thank you so much for listing all the gear! I love your jacket. No wonder it sold out on Amazon. I would also like to see your chart videos of different ways to hang tarp shelters.
Ya I use the stormy videos he does to drift off to sleep his unique camping skills are a blessing I enjoy his adventures
Glad you are safe and got out of there.Thank you 🌼
