    All of us who have watched you for years probably have our own memories of a special video you have made. I'll never forget one you made in a snow storm where the snow got so deep you could hardly breath through the night. It practically buried your small tent. Suggestion: you making a video where you discuss/ show your own most memorable trips.

      Hi Luke, I love your videos. This one is short and full of thunder. Love these kind of adventures. And those aerial shots are breath taken. Quick question when you walk up or down the mountain with all those rocks have you ever gotten hurt? S&H my friend stay safe and well ☕️

I've seen trees hit. I've seen two transformers blow up near me and I stay on the porch during storms now days.

    As a country gal with her small family trapped in the California desert, your videos bring me so much joy. I miss actually weather and green mountains! I used to teach small class of mountain survival, nothing extreme, just making sure you have proper gear and not missing vital components, but also not over packing and weighing yourself down. Watching the weather and treating the mountains with respect. I absolutely love what you do and how you do it, and that you bring us along! Thank you for all you do!

    I always pack a lightweight poncho, in addition to a tarp, for those times when it seems like it's raining or snowing and sleeting sideways. I keep extra ponchos in my car and truck, backpack, boat, hunting gear and the house. Hot food and coffee do wonders to improve a rough weather day outdoors and I store heat and eat food in the vehicles as well. Oh, and must have coffee!!!!!

  • @DarkSideKid100
    @DarkSideKid100 2 года назад +8

    Thank you for your gorgeous videos from the outdoors, especially my loved rainy hikings ones :) I have been watching your videos for quite a long time, when I saw your first video ( I do not even remember what was it about though ) I fell in love with your videos about different gear, your fascinating nature over there, testnights; I appreciate your principles and approach as well (agenda free, only fair reviews, genuine hiking atmosphere, etc). I am from Ukraine, Kyiv, it is rather difficult here to maintain a positive view for life or so, mildly and shortly speaking, the main task is to survive, there were so many horrific things have happened, and so many ones are to happen... However, I am not complaining, the main thought I want to convey is that your videos allow me to distract from all those things, at least for some time... :) Thank you, Luke! With love from Ukraine!

    Master Luke, to me, your the best at what you do. Thanks for letting us go out on these trips with you. I know after you set up the tarp and I sat down beside you, I started dozing off a little,listening to the thunder and the rain, it was so relaxing. Then, I smelt the coffee brewing. Oh Lord,dat smell. Then all of a sudden, darn it, I woke up. Oh well,now I have to wait for your next video. But honestly, I’ll be turning 67 in December, so I may just have to take a ride to North Carolina from New Orleans to see some of my family but mostly to take a 3-4 day hike. It’s been a long time. Thanks my friend for putting that urge back into me.
