I love how you care so much for Susie and her well-being. My husband was so like that when we were young. Now we are so old, we have to hang on to each other!
You’re a fortunate man Luke to have your wife coming out with you. As I aged I find it harder to share what I love. People move away, die or just have the energy. You are blessed to have her.
I love to camp and hike but I'm getting old (57) and had knee surgery and need knee replacement and have only one friend he's a male, I'm a female and don't feel comfortable sharing sleeping space but will as ive only had 2 female friends in all my life and your right about how things change as my bestie died and after 45 yrs of friendship w the other we took separate paths so I need a camping partner and it seems not many my age are interested plus being old my little 2 man tent is getting painful as I age. I hope one day I get well off eniught to get an RV, heck I'd be happy With a van. If worse comes to worse I'll camp in a car before I stop camping. Signed Vicki Carnes
A spouse willing to push herself and have new, potentially very cold, experiences with you is a keeper! I'm more surprised you saw so many other hikers out there
Truly enjoy your adventures. I am 82 yrs. We went camping with our four children and loved every minute of it. Brings a lot of memories of our days. Wonderful bonding for families. I am now bed ridden so this is great entertainment for me. Thank you for posting. God bless you and your family. Be safe 👵🏻💕👍🙏🙏.
That was truly an epic adventure and Susie, you were impressive! It takes a strong heart and will to do what you did. We already know Luke's persistent fortitude and skills; I was impressed, Luke, that you seemed to "drag" your feet while hiking in front of Susie, making it easier for her...what a stud! In a very gentlemanly way, of course :) That was a good call to egress while the gettin' was good. The Hilleberg is one impressive shelter.
Yes, I noticed the trail break foot shuffling too. Good job. Hunting Colorado I always cut a walking stick to steady myself. I tried a trekking pole but a couple of times I forgot it and had to backtrack to find it. If I'm packing out 100 pounds of meat I cut two poles and still have to be careful in the rocks and brush. I notice you never use one.
You two are a beautiful couple. Suzie I don't understand how you can say that you had so much fun when you were obviously distressed and exhausted from hiking in such deep snow.
Luke I think that was a smart decision for the two of you to get off the mountain. Because you know your limits with the gear that you have and the time constraint that it would take to get down and be safe. My hat's off to you be well to the wolf pack.
When I was 17 years old I ran away from home for a full year and lived in the cab of my 1970 C 10 Chevy pickup truck. As the days got shorter and the nights colder I bought a single mantle Coleman lantern for a heat source. The only problem was I had to wake up every couple of hours to pump up the fuel tank. When it came to cooking, I had a single burner Coleman stove that also ran on Coleman fuel. I really learned a lot about surviving on bare minimum that year.
Susie challenging herself! That’s so freaking awesome to see 💪 Maybe Snowshoes for the next trip out⛄️ A cheap pair works fine. Hiking poles also help with slippery footing 👍 great video you guys!
Snowshoes: No cheap ones! In these conditions they may work. But conditions can get really harsh quickly. And then demands on material rise. Here's an example of another youtuber from the Bavarian Forest who had trouble with cheap snowshoes borrowed from a friend. Luckily he could do an improvised repair with paracord: ruclips.net/video/wu4mifcw1lQ/видео.html&ab_channel=BackpackerWilderness
@@1life2risk I assume snowshoes are more trouble then they are worth until you get over three feet of snow, & even after five feet of snow I assume they become worthless...???
Luke, your vids have always been great but, somehow they just seem to get better and better. The camera work, the background music are professional grade. And, including your well spoken and accomplished wife, is a masterstroke. She is such a beneficial addition! Kudos to both of you ! 👍
Just returned from an adventure in Roan Highlands in the snow. Temps in teens and high winds. A couple of game changers included micro spikes, trekking poles with large snow baskets, snow shoes & chemical warmers for gloves, drying socks/boots overnight & warming sleeping bags. A UCI candle raised the inside dew point and knocked down condensation. Also the AT weather app for the latest snow updates. Proper prep and planning made for a memorable and fun 40 mile adventure from Indian Grave Gap to 19E. Winter wonderland in the highlands.
I grew up in northern Illinois and always took snow for granted. Then I went to college and one of my classmates was from Hawaii and had never seen snow in his life. I will never forget his reaction when he first saw snow - it was as if he had just met his long lost love after several years apart. It was a cool experience, and made me rethink my dislike of snow, having grown up shoveling it out of our driveway. It does have a certain magical quality to it.
That scenery is spectacular! You guys are so, so cute! Always treasure each other and don’t take each other for granted. It was a joy to watch you on this adventure together.
This trip really shows the necessity of having the proper gear. Here I sit watching this while so many of us Texans are without power and water. Take care and be safe.
What a fun video. Brought back old memories. The land and trees and hills were gorgeous. My memories of Winter snow, beauty and trees comes from skiing with my Dad. He put me on skis at a very young age. So young I put myself on my skis between his skis and wrapped my little arms around his long tall legs. This worked 😊 till I grew tall enough to reach the rope tows. ❤❤❤LOVED LOVED IT, SKIED into my 60s till knee surgeries needed.
I didn't realize it at the time but me and a buddy parked right beside of you during this snow storm! It was an exciting three days and it's good to see you guys enjoyed it too. Lots of lessons learned including not leaving windows cracked on cars!
What an incredible trip for you both. I’m really glad to have found your channel. It gives me great tips, suggestions and wonderful camping/hiking experience to enjoy. Thank you for all the videos that you painstakingly review and publish for us all. Please take care... Wally
Fella , you provide a great channel, you’ve got a genuine nature that comes over and makes you very easy to listen to Loved this episode, keep them coming man
yep. and i used mine to make a fire in a winter survival situation. my frames are made of magnesium. so i scrapped them and got shavings off my snowshoe frames to make a fire in a big snow cave in one of my vids. and did it on a national tv show once. i live on a huge huge volcano. snowing 4 feet here in the next few days. i live in the national forest on a 11245 tall mt that is a volcano.
ya. If these 2 were really out there for days on end, their feet would be soaked regardless. And wet feet, are a death sentence in long exposure winter treks.
@@SavageAirguns i use bunny boots and military magnesium snowshoes. they look like tennis rackets and they are not that heavy but on deep pow you float. we are gonna get 3 feet in the next 5 days. we get 600 inches of snow a year. you need the big floaty kind where i live.
There's a lot of things I like about winter hiking and camping more than summer. Its very quiet, you can hear the snow hit the ground and trees, there's more places to set up a tent, you don't have to worry about a camp fire or stove setting the forest on fire, there's less people, you can see all the cool animal footprints clearly. Ice does weird stuff. I just came back yesterday from a snow trip where there was these huge ice crystals everywhere, all over the ground. And if you can't stand the heat and humidity of summer, winter camping is for you!
Tent location in heavy snow fall is even more important . What widow makers look like in dry weather or rain become their name sake means when it snows !
Congratulations for getting out in the storm and surviving.. The scenery is beautiful love the snow.. Smart decision leaving the top early.. The music playing on your hike down love it.. Great couples adventure! Thanks guys! I moved from Georgia to Montana. We had 20 below temperature last night and the ground is covered in snow! Thanks for the video!
A channel well worthy of way more subscribers. You two are so much fun! Love these winter hiking vids of yours. Thanks for all your honest and thorough gear reviews. 👍
The view between 7:30 and 7:40 is priceless. What is amazing is that are with someone,a significant other, whom you can enjoy this activity with. Very nice video. I very much like watching your videos. Thank you for posting!
My husband and I SOOOOOOOOOOO loved this adventure!!!!!! It transformed us right there with you and Susie!! Wonderful editing as well. Can't wait for the next one and the adventure tips.
Thank You Susie for going on a winter trip! I love your snow trips, come to maine or new Hampshire for winter camping, you might like it. 22 inches here last storm in northern mass
Luke and beautiful spouse: Thanks for a great video. I was anxious when you guys were in the tent discussing whether to stay or go the next day. I was so happy in your decision. What a relief. I liked the idea of staying in the truck and looking out at the snow.
What a great adventure Luke and Susie. The videography was fantastic, so beautiful. Thank you both so much for what you do. You provide a way for those of us that can no longer do some of the hiking and camping to still experience it. You inspire those that can to go out and do it . Love watching you guys, stay well.
When I lived in Colorado near Central City, hiking in the snow was great. I found an inexpensive pair of snow shoes really makes the hike easier. I was lucky enough to have a buddy who worked for Head Ski who donated a pair to me. Staying on top of the snow keeps your feet and legs dryer. And it takes a bit less energy to move along. Where I lived, outdoor adventures were a way of life. Great cardio-vascular workout too. This was back in the 70's so there was no youtube. And even though I took lots of photos portable video was not a thing back then. Wish I could revisit the past with a good camera today. Really enjoyed this video. Had some popcorn while watching, here on Saturday night. Thanks.
Great call about heading down the mountain BEFORE it got too bad. Here in Bulgaria, they are calling for a minimum of 25 cm (9.84 in.) And a friend wanted to go on the mountain for his first "winter bushcamp". I said it was crazy because at an altitude of 7,500 feet (which is where my bushcamp is) it's going to be at the most close to 3 feet of snow by Sunday night. Showed him this video and said "this is how smart people do it" Cheers you guys, from Sofia, Bulgaria.
#suggestion: try out YakTrax which are quickly removable mini-crampons. The pair probably weighs 1/4 lb, and the stow or clip to your bag. very nice for giving a little bit of confidence when the snow is slippy, but not deep enough for snowshoes.
That's the tent you used on another snowy two or three nights if I remember. Wow, those trees are beautiful. I hope Luke offered to carry a little of your gear Susie. ;0)
Nuclear green beans!-lolol. :-) Like all the camping tips, Luke. That tent looks soo cozy. You guys together or apart are great, and your music choices Epic.
This video reminds me of the last time I went snow camping in 94. I was in the Kaibab forest at the Grand Canyon. The thing I liked most was how quiet and peaceful it was when it snowed. Only thing I heard was snow falling. I hope to experience this again.
My favourite part about these videos is when they set the camera down and walk towards it and then past it knowing at one point they keep having to run towards and away from it over and over.
I like a good "underwear fire" when i have been wet and cold. To explain "the underwear fire", it's when you make a campfire so big and hot so you have to sit in your underwear to survive 😆🤣. Old joke from back in the day.
Snow is GREAT for cleaning stuff! Especially fine powder snow when it's cold and dry. For example, take out that thick mat and dump it upside down in the snow. It's gonna do wonders. Do it several times and the mat will be as clean as it'll ever get.
It is amazing that your wife supports your hobbies! You 2 are a amazing couple! I cant complain myself but my better half would not go out in those conditions. Greetings from Berlin
The way he looks at her, with such love, careful to make sure she is ok. What a beautiful relationship to have.
Yes, you can definitely see in his eye's how much he loves this woman ❤😊
TOGR always claim to have "no agenda" but it's pretty obvious their agenda is being informative, entertaining, having fun and being positive.
Their real agenda is to hypnotize their viewers by doing the *American Snow Dance* 9:42
Hell yes! i love the positive vibes coming from this channel :)
The shot at 33:37 was epic btw!
No agenda meaning they are not shrilling for Backstabb....Backcountry like Dan Becker etc.
No agenda means no link to the jet boil.
@@jonothandoeser Looks like a native Eskimo snow dance! Lololololololol
I love how you care so much for Susie and her well-being. My husband was so like that when we were young. Now we are so old, we have to hang on to each other!
Hanging on is good!
Its heartwarming to see you all get along and being kind to one another!😊
You’re a fortunate man Luke to have your wife coming out with you. As I aged I find it harder to share what I love. People move away, die or just have the energy. You are blessed to have her.

Ohh those woods look beautiful !
Wow, spring water. I've always imagined you could live in the poorest hovel in the woods if you had good water. You guys are great.
and the very ending was FANTASTIC!!!
Great gift for Susie. I gave one of my sons an MSR Pocket Rocket II and Toaks 750ml & 450ml set for Christmas. Gift of adventure. Can’t beat it.
Snowshoes are worth their weight in gold in thick, deep snow.

That's the tent you used on another snowy two or three nights if I remember. Wow, those trees are beautiful. I hope Luke offered to carry a little of your gear Susie. ;0)
Has anyone counted the number of times he say Susie? 😀
Great, just great being in tent while snowing
Nuclear green beans!-lolol. :-) Like all the camping tips, Luke. That tent looks soo cozy. You guys together or apart are great, and your music choices Epic.
Luke, Why do you guys never use trekking poles? If you tried them I bet you would never go again without!
You guys are so goofy, loved that ending.
I have had a Heater buddy for at least 10 years and I use it all the time. I just love it. It is the best.
This video reminds me of the last time I went snow camping in 94. I was in the Kaibab forest at the Grand Canyon. The thing I liked most was how quiet and peaceful it was when it snowed. Only thing I heard was snow falling. I hope to experience this again.
The music was like a lord of the rings epic adventure when you listen to it.
I don't know if I could stay motivated to keep hiking if I had such a morose soundtrack following me.
If Frodo and Samwise the Brave can walk to Mordor, darnit I can do that extra 2 miles.
Any idea what the music is called?
Great adventure we had a couple off inches in the uk still icyey here
You guys make a great team 👍🏻
Great to. See the two of you going out together on a adventure we are known for a slogan be prepared
Much as I enjoy the content, Susie makes everything just that little bit more awesome.
Right call at the right time guys. Great adventure to wstch ... I'm envious. Bushyboy Oz
