Luke, we had a storm two nights ago. Reminded me of you. It was weird, (just kidding) lasted about 45 seconds and stopped. It blew 3, 6 inch diameter, 15-20 feet long limbs, down in my yard. Snapped the whole tops off a sycamore and a poplar, both just more than a foot in diameter, landed on top of each other…good firewood. Been working two days to clear ‘em out of the yard, more to clear. Sheesh!!! Thanks for sharing your adventure…from East Tennessee.
I’m an old retired vet.. I park pointing out…my car, my pickup and my big bike…almost every time. I even sit pointing out in a restaurant.
I talk to the animals that wander in from the woods around my house, too.❤ I told a fat Tom turkey the other day that he'd better strut his stuff back in the woods because out here, he looked like my dinner. He looked at me with a side-eye & kept on strutting. He made me giggle...fun times for this old lady!
If I look outside and I see a storm forming I know Luke is out camping in it, lol
I've been backpacking and car camping over 50 years. After covid I've noticed a huge increase in folks in the woods. The way things are today you just need to be prepared. I've never been bothered, but one never knows. The way you park your vehicle makes no difference. Your ability to protect yourself does. Just saying.
I love drinking coffee watching Luke and friends...
Love hearing the rain!
I absolutely LOVE heavy rain, especially in the Spring/Summer months. I'm sitting here watching the video and actually shivering as I can imagine the surroundings you're experiencing.
Hey Luke. I hear the thunder. Deer are so nosey. We feed ours and the does have their fawns on the farm. Have been here for years. Well I’ll keep watching. I enjoy all your videos.
I love watching your videos Luke.
You get out into the woods and have so much 😊 fun even if it pours.. Be well ❤️🩹 both you and your family!!
I saw the chilli infused olive oil…..what a great idea ! , I just ordered some 👍
As far as parking goes , I’m retired army motor sgt , I’d back in the parking spot, easier to load / unload and get out in a hurry, you can adjust your head position
Good to hear that the North Face didn't leak. I looked on that tent and wondered if I should buy it. Now I know👍 thanks to you Luke 😀. Thanks for a great episode
Elisabeth - Naturliv I Norr
Luke when will you do a video with your twin brother? I think that would great! You will have all the woodland creatures do a double take.
Great idea!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge I enjoy your camping trips
You have the best job in the world
Hi Luke sitting here having some breakfast and thought I'd come check out your latest video. I always thought how crucial it is that you keep up with the weather for the testing that you do and over the time spent watching your channel it's obvious how important your different tools and gadgets are. I recently bought a TOGR red t-shirt and I love perfect for summer.
Thanks Luke, it looked like a good day out. Two weeks from now I will be camping and will try the steak sandwich. It did look amazing. I will send you pics of the new camper and site setup. Stay safe and God bless.
Where you live must be the rainiest part of the country because like wow, I have never seen so much rain talked about in all my life.
I just got rid of my ARB 8' awning and awning room on my 4runner. Going to switch over to T4 Gazelle. Was using a tarp like yours over the back of the truck. Switched that over to the Kelty Highroads shelter...seems to offer more versatility and closed in more in case you need to use heat.
Keep the stormy camp videos coming!!! They are my favorite
I agree with the self defense plan. Running away is not always an option. That is why I have a sticker on my vehicle that says " Too fat to run will fight" ..lol Great video as always!
I'm in the same boat. a;ong with being to old to run.
Me too lol, I'm a five foot tall senior female, I'm not running anywhere. I'm like a raccoon, chubby, kinda small and cute but will fight like hell lmao!!
Had a great time during the adventure, Luke! Plus the return of the Woody stove!
Races to set up camp before the rain and storms come but is too late...stops to film 3 point turn, pull in and all the functions to shut off and exit vehicle 😂. Love your videos Luke
Love the unpacking part and nice vehicle too!
parking facing out can help with getting out. Not meant for escaping bad guys, but depending upon terrain and weather, it can be easier to get going if you're pointed in the direction you'll want to go.
That skinny coffin looking tent gives me claustrophobia just looking at it!
When Luke gets older he's gonna look like a prune with all the rain he's been in . Lol. Forgive me. That's my dark sense of humor. Love Luke man. He's the best
Really appreciated the reminder to get a skin check. Have had 14 burned off 1 cut out and 1 melanoma found so far. Have 3 more to get cut out and more burned off. The previous doctor (2 years ago) told me it wasn’t anything to worry about. Current doctor wasn’t fussed but I pressed and asked for it to be removed. Turned out to be melanoma. Trust your gut. I’ve got to get more of it cut out but aside from that idk what treatment will be. Even without that find, the new dr put me on a 3 monthly review. Go get your skin checked.
Good one Luke.
I appreciate you showing breaking everything down in the rain
I roasted in a Kelty late start. On a hot rainy day with the door zipped shut it has zero air flow . Thank you for your work Luke : )
I replaced it with a Lanshan 2 : )
Thank you ❤❤❤
Beautiful Camping🥰🥰🥰
Anyone else get so invested into watching these so early on while he's setting up and you're like....bro you want some help with that? Only to realize you're on your couch and can't do anything about it lol.
Watching your adventures on my couch
as our weekend adventure (inspired by your adventures) that I was supposed to be on right now
was canceled due to an unruly cold I decided to catch instead 🙃
Thank you for the nice informative video
Some thoughts on parking. Without 4wd, leave the driving wheels on the firmest ground if you can, If you have to force an exit, hit obstructions with the rear of your vehicle, it has fewer vulnerable bits. Love the videos, thank you.
Thank you for all that you do to keep us informed. Especially the trouble you go to give us great camera angles. Most of all for the great reviews. Love your channel. Strength and honor.
Your rainy vids are amazing just as AB tony. The only complaint they need to be a little longer but otherwise amazing. Also you and Tony need to do a 2 night camping video together would be awesome!
Looking forward to watching this before bed!
Luke I like how you tussle your equipment before going out in your tents you got to make sure those tents don't leak in a rainstorm thank you for your knowledge I like how you explain everything . When will you go on a camping trip with Susie
Great test Luke , And Your experience shows through , Cry bags are essential for wet gear , Keeps all other kit , and your Sack , or wheels , don't get soaked , So simple , yet so many do not know , or think to carry Drysack ! , Be Well my American Friend , Best wishes to you , Susie , and the Offspring , Strength , Honour and Respect From the UK .😊❤👍🙏
Good info on using the dry bag for all the wet stuff!
when im camping as you are in that area, i place a 20# mono fishing line around the area with the end of it has a air horn , when you trip the line it sounds the horn, about a full 1 min , before , so you know someone or an animal as tripped the air horn, i did this in yellowstone last year , because i was in an area where there plenty of gizzalies in the area, , i made the horns from a old bear spray can that people dont think to throw away,? a valve stem super glued in the top of the can, a noise maker from a party favor the can holes appox. 100psi of air, super glued to the open end, and a 20# mono fishing line around the whole area where im camping, bear comes in, trips the line the horn sounds for 10 sec, the bear run away never to come back, people get mad , but later are glad something is out there watching natural before it destories your camp site?
Thank You for each week, your adventures are great!
Handling criticism with grace as usual. Well done. Keep em coming. Love the channels.
Cast iron pans are best, nearly indestructible & absolutely durable
Thank you so much I have learned so much from you and Susie ❤
chili olive oil.......will have to try it
Some people just like to argue 😮
Stay safe and protected 🙏
You are making me hungry.!!!! Lol…
Luke , has anyone told you that you are the modern day cowboy ? Love your adventures
I don't know Luke...this argument about parking facing out or in is interesting to me. I do believe I would park with the vehicle facing out so I could blind any intruders pulling in on me with my headlights if necessary and it's logical to believe you could get out faster if blocked in by moving forward rather than backward. Of course as you say blocked is blocked but with a big overland truck like you have if I had to push something out of the way I could see what and how to push better from the front window. Interesting discussion. Curious to hear others opinions.
If you hit front of vehicle to push your way out, vehicle wouldn't go far without radiator,...backend hit might be better for functional driving after they are slammed out of the way
@@sandramcarthur1866 But most of these overland vehicles have brush guards on the front like police and emergency vehicles to protect vitals
It's common for people in the fire service back into their parking spaces. The reason behind this is for quick and easy egress. You just pull forward quickly without having to worry about backing into anything or anyone. It's pretty handy in parking lots because people don't like to stop and let you back out, and you don't have to worry about someone blasting through the lot and you not seeing them.
Enjoy your videos!
👍 Keep up the great videos Luke, love these rain camping videos!
Hello from the Piedmont of NC. Nice weather the rain has stopped here.
Hi Luke as always it’s a pleasure to watch listen and learn from you stay safe and thank you
Your videos relax me after a hard day's work keep em rolling thank you Luke ❤
As far as packing goes it is nice to be able to just grab your car keys hit the remote unlock have your headlights come on to illuminate whatever is out there
Dude I’m loving your channel I’m definitely subscribing now
I do use trip alarms if I’m in a place where people shouldn’t be, it’s mostly so animals don’t sneak up on me but Donny….. a lot of us campers and hikers carry pew pews, take more than a couple kids out goofing of to worry us
Right after your conversation with the “brave deer,” you grabbed the bag with your camping table. I genuinely thought you were about to dispatch the deer with a shotgun. 😂 Thanks for keeping me entertained.
I crack up when you share some of the “expert” advice people leave you in the comments that makes no sense and then they get upset when you clarify how silly their recommendations are. 😂
There is one advantage in parking in the direction of the exit, that is better maneuverability when driving forward as opposed in reverse. It's a negligible advantage but an advantage none-the-less.
Good tent testing weather that's for sure. Meal looked good, made fresh not dry re-hydrated. Glad the two higher end tents didn't leak. Thanks for the video and work. See ya soon.
If your self defense plan is to be afraid/run, that’s a shame. I do see value in facing a vehicle outward though. But I park backed in in EVERY situation!
Luke, The Bambi whisperer...
Exactly what I' thought 🤔
Your videos always seem to calm me down somehow
i can not wait to get me a 4runner like this!!
Always locked and loaded
Love your 4Runner. Keeps me coming back!
@10:31 three packets went into the tumbler, looked delicious, I'd love to try it but it's not in the description, wink-wink. Sorry if I missed something. Keep up the great work sir, these videos are not only informative and relaxing, they might count as some of the "stakes" that help anchor my "tent" when the storms of anxiety hover on the horizon.
Always carry a weapon or two, and know how to use it. Be prepared to defend yourself and family, but Always enjoy your trip. I hope no one ever has to use a weapon, but if you do, know how!
Like to hear you laugh Luke 😊
Ive been car or truck camping for more than 40 yrs, always, always park with your front facing out.
Big 👍🏻 RUN DUDE RUN🤣🤣🤣
Always find your videos relaxing and informative and have purchased a few things based on your reviews! Thanks!
As always a very sensible video and good info
That steak sandwich looks incredible!
Luke that fawn was looking at u like.... 😒 WTF DUDE ur trespassing on my feeding time here bubba.... that was hilarious footage Luke .
I love all your videos. Can we get some more camping trips with some hilleberg tents?
I run those tires and I love them.
Luke, we subscribe to the same notion that we like a little bit of meat underneath all our cheese! Yummmmm!!
The sliding rear tray makes a REALLY nice seat. If you didn't get it from factory I hear it's a pain to install later, but it's worth it.
Oooooohhh that steak sandwich looks good! Excellent!
Nittos have been my favorite for a while also
POM is the easiest carrying pepper spray that ive tried. My only complaint with it is that its a little slick and the clip part rotates and whn you pull it out of your pocket the spray nozzle might be pointing an odd direction. A small strip of Talon tape on the side fixes both issues, makes it super easy to draw.
It was if that deer was saying to itself "that guy looks very familiar". lol
Wow, that's quite an adventure you had with the thunderstorm! Next time consider having the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series as your back up. It's got a massive 5kWh capacity, super fast recharging and it's waterproof! Perfect for those unexpected weather changes.
Would a personal protection dog be an idea to have when adventuring? I know you go out armed but could be good to have a sentinel. BTW, love your videos because I love listening to the rain.😊
I liked it better when you actually cook something when you're camping instead of boiling water and eating out of a bag that looks really delicious
Excellent as always Luke...
It´s kinda incredible how different the green from the tarp is compared to the green of the leafs around it but yet it blends in pretty ok for a single color tarp.
You ever thought about getting an awning with side panels to set up camp rather than a tarp? It'll offer more protection and is easy to set up
I think it's great suggestion
He mentioned in a video that he'd rather not mount an awning on his vehicle.
@MrFTP ahh I haven't heard him say that. Alright
Tarps are so versitile.
In the future I'm making sure I've already have eaten now I'm hungry...lol
As usual great video Luke..
Great test video. I can’t wait for the reviews.
Side note. Parking your vehicle pointed out allows you to turn headlights on any adversaries so you can see where to aim lol
That deer was the best part :)
I have a stormbreak 3p since 2017 and it has been flawless, not a drop of water ever, even during strong winds. Two minor cons: when you open the rainfly some water drips into the inner mesh and ventilation is not adequate for very hot weather but besides that its a great tent.
I would like to see how the North Face Wawona 4 behaves.
This episode was a little shorter than usual, but still good enough. Luke has a ton of energy. I work 10 hours days and I'm absolutely exhausted by the time I clock out and can barely move. S&H to everyone, have a great weekend!
Same but it helps if you are doing something you like, I’m getting near to retirement and been in joinery shops and construction my whole life some has been good but I’ve had enough.
Looking forward to a time a can be under canvas a lot more than I am now, hopefully I’ll be fit enough to do it.
