Hiding in Plain Sight!
Rain is on the way and his goal is to get in and out before it hits....but things don't go according to plan....

I've stealth camped in England when I was homeless. I could probably run an army training course. Nothing beats experience and it becomes a state of mind, almost addictive. You almost breath invisible after a time. The birds are your early warning system too. You become one with the environment, almost soaking into it. Patience as well, always patience.
Well written! Couldn’t say that any better.
It would be good if you did a video simply talking about some of your tips.
Don't people usually breath invisible? Unless it's cold enough, your breath shouldn't show XD. Also The birds really do work well as an alarm. I tend to wake up once the birdsong starts.
I've stealth camped when homeless too, don't see the addictiveness of it though. Got very good but I still remember the terror when I had to dry out my tent and probably retiree day hikers came across the side path where I had hung my tent up at. Had no other option, I mean, couldn't pack it back up soaked. But it was early dawn, 6 or 7 AM - I didn't expect anyone much less 4 startled older folks. More power to you but idk if I could do it again. Proud that I did when I needed to, but if those day hikers had gone back to their car and reported me to the cops, I might not be in the much better place I am now. Idk.
@@spookyblush-speedruns Are you always this literal?
steve wallis would approve
If he had cooked a pot stew for 16 people he would have aced it 😀
Indeed I got my practice stealth camping when I was homeless however I had my truck with a shell makes life easier you have an awesome day
Hunker down
Steve is a reckless and disrespectful clueless moron. Stealth camping once in a while is ok ,but to make it a habit not cool.
@@lynnprince6635 and I think his wife is hiding something he never shows her on video
"Must have earth tones"
Proceeds to use neon green cordage LOL
And set up orange sleeping pad out in the open.
picky picky picky, hahah...yeah, yet you gotta use what you gotta use...also going totally nutso over the stealth aspect will stress you out IMO...just do it and be chill!
It was a nice a visual camping trip. Not as “stealth” as I imagined but still a great hike with beautiful landscape. It’s funny how when you mention “Stealth Camping” everybody automatically thinks of Canadian Steve Wallis. ⛺️
i wanna see someone do a compilation of them going back to grab the cameras after all those walking away shots lol
Haahaaaaa
They have long aproach shots too. It's extra work as well.
He really didn’t beed all those shots haha. We get it he walked for awhile
@@donolinger6904 yeah i ignored that in favor of brevity
Haze outdoors usually includes himself returning for the camera.
@6:45 when he said step one done, I was almost expecting, 'now it's time for step 2' as he cracks a beer.
Steve Wallis
@@wakeupcanuck6763 Man , he is getting popular . I remember seeing my first video of him . He was attending HVAC Classes and sleeping in a tent .
Lol, that is camping with Steve
Same!
Except for Luke its a milk
"I dont like to waste time" Walks up, put camera down, Walks back to record the way he allready walked..
I was thinking that 🤣🤣
yeah... wasted so much time!!
He's doing that specifically to add to our viewing pleasure for the video. Technically, not wasting time. :P
That's why he has to be in a hurry all the time.
I came to comment this
I was stationed in a combat unit in Germany, We were often rained and snowed on, due the European weather. We dried our tents in an old horse stable on base. We had rain and snow many times. I know what you are going through.
“It’s all about minimal encounters with people”
Nailed 2020, bro.
Nailed my entire life bro 😎
😂🤣😂🤣
@@jackreacher4297 Same for real. I was social distancing before the CDC made it cool.
Except you were more likely to run into people in the woods than ever before in 2020...
I must stealth live, in that case. 😂
He’s walking fast cause he’s gotta walk back and grab his camera every time.
Thanks for all your great videos Luke!
Those small military GoreTex types of bivy-shelters are not made for civilian camping, stealth or not.
Their purpose is for a soldier to quickly roll out, get a little sleep, pack up and move out again.
It's low profile, and matte fabric makes it well concealed in most terrains, even without a camo-net.
The fabric is thick enough that you can use a flashlight inside without being compromised.
They are resistant to hard field use, fire sparks, and chemicals where a civilian tent would break, tear, or melt.
In this type of shelter you are supposed to just get some quick rest. Nothing else. The soldiers leave most of their
gear outside under their rain jacket or poncho. Sleeping with their clothes on, with weapon, and boots beside them.
If you want to stealth camp in comfort I recommend a civilian olive green dome tent combined with a hunters camo-net.
Although with a larger profile, the rounded dome shape blends well into the terrain for sufficient concealment.
Then you have both comfort, and stealth.
Do you know what piece of gear is the most compromising in this video?
It's your shiny ground-sheet that will reflect the moonshine from miles away.
The bright Hi-Vis lines are actually a good stealth choice as they are not visible from a distance, and your loud swearing
as you trip over dark lines at night creates a much higher risk of being compromised :)
Best regards from The Swedish Army!
I do not understand why this comment has not more likes. I would add from my personal experience (Bundeswehr), that we’ve also had scenarios where we kept our boots on during our nap. We were just loosing the laces. Most often it was an individual decision by each soldier.
Remember, for stealth purposes, warming up food makes the scent of the food cary much further than it would otherwise if served up cold.
neon paracord, clearing on a hill
True, but a guy's gotta eat
A dirty stealther I see, Steve Wallis would be proud of that hunkering down. 😂👍
Steve Rocks!!! So does this ;)
Hunker down!
It was cramped in there because Steve was inside with him and he never knew it.
Steve does a more legit stealth camp, than this. He does it very cheap.
Steve Wallis is a freak with a weird neck!!
In my old hitchhiking days, I'd pick a particularly wide section of median on the freeway that was protected by bushes and rocks to set up for the night ... I-81, Virginia, 1971 ...
Are you Steve Wallis' grandfather?
Good idea brother from another old hitch hiker
i 64, va/wv to new river gorge. amtrak within reasonable distances from i 64. left/center/right.
I80 pa 1995 one end to the other
Hello fellow hitch hikers I-474 man here been tracking it since the spring of 2005
OMG!!! As soon as I saw the can of your spread I thought “is this something from Slovenia 🇸🇮 or Croatia 🇭🇷 ???😀
Yup! It’s Podravka! 😀
Enjoyable video. I love wild camping. One thing experience has taught me to carry is a camouflage rucksack rain cover. As well as keeping the rucksack drier, if it rains, it also allows me to drop the rucksack and camouflage it if I don't fancy carrying it while I scout out an area, or gather resources. Keep on camping and posting.
Live in England every Wild camp is a Stealth camp.
Germany can relate.
Indeed mate! I do a lot of bike packing and always have some woodland on my journey for stopping the night.
I live in London, it's like wild camping here 😂. But let's be serious I love wild camping, never tried in UK but shortly I will explore UK wild side!
Dariusz Xxx Haha! Indeed! I used to live by the Oval underground station on the Camberwell New Road.
@@MabonPreparedness If you stealth camp in the Brecon Beacons, the SAS have found you and you didn't even know....
To successfully break the rules, you must follow the stealth camping rules
This stealth camping reminds me when I was homeless. you have to the same thing blend in and don't get caught
wow, I just made basically the same comment in an above thread...welcome brother/sister!
Me too, but I did this in NYC...much harder, this is a piece of cake. I bivied under a construction trailer on the NYU campus. Their security guards are legendary but couldn't spot me.
I, a civilian, stealth camp on a military installation every Saturday. Using a slumberjack dst, along with a hihiker pad and pillow, bottle of water and leftovers in a freezer bag. My spot is under a satellite where military police patrol occasionally but never expect someone to be there. Adrenaline is elevated, comfort is limited but satisfaction is obtained.
If you strap a tripod to the outside of your pack it says "camera gear" and not "overnight gear".
Heartsongsutube where I camp I strap my MP5 to my chest. I’m training. Leave me alone.
I fell off my sofa when I saw the cost of the tent 🎪 that's insane for a single person that's crazy amount of money to spend on a one person tent. It's nice but crazy 😜
Carinthia is expensive. For the "high speed - low drag" people
Yea way to much for me
🤙 an didn't even come with stakes.. Not that big of a problem but still... Hell for that price it should've came with "steaks"
yeah, almost literally spit out my drink. fecking hell
Have any of these stealth camp people ever heard of a swag?
Awesome content and presentation! Thanks so much for sharing!
My wife is Bosnian. She says this is chicken pate. Like chicken minced, like the Armour potted meat. We get this each year when we go to Kosovo. Very good spread.
Tillamook is an awesome place to visit. I’ve never heard of that food company before though. Tillamook cheese is absolutely wonderful stuff. A lot of stores on the west coast sell it.
Tillamook dairy isn't quite as awesome as it used to be, but it's sooooooo good and so much better than anything else. My brother founded a cheese club in high school with an official locked briefcase that members would carry around on campus. They took a pilgrimage trip to Tillamook for the club.
The Cheese Club had gained mythological cult status by the time I was in HS 10 years later. Everyone would pester me to know about the club and WHAT WAS IN THE CASE. I never said anything. :)
Don’t come to Oregon, you’ll hate it. 👍
@@washingtonlass I bet it was cheese
@@okamitsu1212 you'll never get me to talk!
I like their ice cream, too. The cheese shop itself is almost an amusement park.
Your choice of music made me think of Gordon Ramsay. I love your stealth camp trips, definitely my favorite. I was motivated by your videos to set out and try it myself. I had nothing. But over time i got the gear, a usgi bivy I bug proofed. Scouted a local city owned lake. Hiked it out and was ready to give it a try. In the meantime my Wife’s health declined and now needs constant attention. So I gave up on the stealth trip, got to stay close to her. I guess that’s the Honor in Strength and Honor. We’ve been married 43 years and she’s worth more than stealth camp to me. But! As I watched this video I noticed my neighbors back yard, hum do I dare?
Prayers for you and your family 🙏❤️🤗💗
Respect.
The sound of the rain is so soothing. I really want coffee now even though its just after 8:30 at night
Our neighbours Croatians know how to make their spreads. Here in Slovenia we have their products everywhere. It's world class food. Many armies use it.
I like to stealth camp. Always makes me feel like a secret agent.
We need people like you
Oh yes
Like James Bond, lol
Your production quality continues to evolve! I've always valued your honesty and integrity and it's nice to see your filmmaking catching up to those values... Makes us appreciate your channel more.
Luke, Epic trip! Absolutely neat area, equipment, food, weather and overall experience to include the cow.
Comparing our favorite on an off 'stealthers' and their version of Step 2: Luke has a coffee and Steve (Wallis) has a beer. Both men make a trip great in their own ways whether coffee or beer!
Best to you and your family. Thanks for the agenda free reviews and, again, epic trips. Keith
Great video! Reminds me of Steve Wallis... Steve stealth camps all year round in Alberta Canada.
Should always carry a tarp as well...fix it above bivi, keeps rain off tarp, u can get out without getting wet, and remain dry while bru’n up, decamp under cover, tart away and off u go
It was crazy how many folks you bumped into when you found your camp spot.
I’d of drank my liter of water at the lake and refilled. Always drink when you can.
Bicycling around Florida in the summer i learned to spot a water spigot from a quarter mile away 🚲😂🚲
Yup, the best container to carry water in is your stomach. Learned that from Les Stroud.
Here in the UK most wild camping in lowland areas has to be done quite stealthily. I sometimes even take a small camouflage net. I sometimes make a small fire but am very careful about where and when...woodland and forests and only when it's not too dry. Arrive late and leave early and you can camp almost anywhere.
Great video Luke! I think my favorite part was the calf following you too. Cows can be so funny sometimes, and sometimes they can be a nusaince.
You have an eye for videography. Love your B roll. Always look forward to your videos. Much better than cable TV.
Cut to commercial.
I like the complete picture of the event that your video gives. Many only show the on site part of their adventure while this video took me along for the entire trip 👍 Well done!
Outdoor guy: they will never find me.
Also outdoor guy: so there was this guy.
Give it a test with the cringe meme format
Watching this video not to far from Tillamook Oregon right now.
Love your vids. Keep up the good work !!!
Luke you need to do more of these. This is what I love seeing, you in the woods with minimal gear
"walk purposefully"
Good advice.
That alarm sound, is the bane of my life.
Really beautiful pictures you took there. A perfect match for your outdoors wanderings. Make sense how perfect the cinematography have been in all of the videos I've seen thus far. Thanks for your work. Stay strong!
4Carl, I was taught to walk with a purpose and carry a clipboard, people ignore you.
In my working days I used to say "carry something, walk fast and look worried."
@@jimgo49 I do it all the time - holding a binder with a notebook, papers, and pens sticking out of it.
@@betsybarnicle8016 same here... but now a days clipboards are getting replaced with iPads
My favorite part of most trips is crawling into bed and listening to the sounds. It's always amazing to hear the coyotes
I know the fog may have been tad problematic but... it sure set a lovely scene. Well done.
When you woke up the first time I wanted to roll over and go to sleep myself, and I was in my office!!! :)
That's why I watch these in bed lol.
Caught by two deer, you've been compromised, abort abort.
Having spent 5 years in the Army Reserves here in Australia, I can attest to the fact that 'Stealth Camping' isn't the art of hiding your camp in the dark of night, but the light of day... You move at night, and camp in the day...
Fact. I think there's a difference between stealth camping in army and normal people 😅 and i bet you dont use green-glow-in-the-dark cordage right? 🤣
I feel that bro, I was USA army infinity, it taught me how to be a professional homeless guy lol.
I served in the US military for 6 years. Watching him was one long face-palm. He's able to do good camera work and is just here to sell gear.
@@hasonpoy My love of camouflage and concealment meant that I became interested in applying to the SASR regiment, however, I found much better paid opportunities in the civilian world, and I was becoming very tired of the 'bro culture' in the Army, and I was acutely aware of how much worse it is in the SASR, which was pretty much confirmed when the investigations into SASR war crimes became public. Many of them are like 'blue blood' cops, and will protect their own, even when their own are committing heinous crimes against the Geneva Convention. As a full-blown fan of following the rules, I knew the service wasn't for me, however, I'll never forget the physical and mental lessons I learnt in the Army..
"...just here to sell gear."
Literally the diametrical opposite of Luke's channel mission statement.
You are wrong, sir.
Intro song is awesome. Great fun and adventurous stealth camping. Be invisible and show no foot prints.
Although frowned upon in the areas I hike, I stealth camp the majority of the time. I have the socially distancing thing down for sure.. been doing it all my life pretty much.
Thanks for taking me along on a great trip😃
This episode reminds me of a Les Stroud Survivorman episode. Best stealth camping video yet Luke 👍🏻 Cheers
I am not a backpacker but for some reason I kept on watching in. Great tips.
LOVED THIS! Thank you for sharing your adventure with us!
Nice vid but for that price I'd expect the tent to have a predator style cloaking device
A cloaking system.
wait, what? setting up a tent in the middle of a field with glow-in-the-dark cordage = stealth?
Right? Black or dark brown cordage most suitable
the light from glow in the dark items really doesn't travel well and you aren't going to see it unless you're pretty much on top of it anyway.
@@jens-kristiantofthansen9376 lol.. obviously u're not stealth camping person but just camping 😅
@@ezfreak0159 You're right, I'm not. You clearly aren't either. :)
Sure, if it mattered not being seen, I'd go somewhere else and not use that cordage. However it's not the glow-in-the-dark that's the problem but the colour in daytime and the location.
Having said that, the tent will be visible in that location long before he cordage. Once anyone is close enough to see the glow, even if very dark, they'll be hearing your breath or wind or rain hitting the tent.
You're not on a mission, so relax a little.
@@jens-kristiantofthansen9376 yeah. Im not stealth camping person but im stealth myself anywhere i go , so its important lesson not to use colourful or glow in the dark cordage, cloth or anything than can capture people attention. I know its not a mission because nothing to worry about (for now) but for myself skills and improvement, its important for the lesson.
We never know what coming to us in the future. Maybe war, maybe zombie apocalypse or maybe revolution right?
"Walk with a purpose" Is the most important phrase to remember. It applies to every situation you find yourself in.
I love the stealth camping videos too...👍👍👍
This was awesome! I loved it! The fog looks so cool and mysterious. Also, I loved the colours in this video. 🤗
Always love your adventures you have taught me so much strength and honor my friend ✌🏻
I'm new to the channel and still catching up on various episodes. I have to say, the music in your videos is especially awesome!
So happy to see all the Steve wallis fans here. He does it better.
Love these notifications! Woohoo...so we have a trail that goes through town and it stretches for I would say about 25 miles....mostly through residential areas, but there are some places where someone can scoot off and not be seen....but we do have some that take advantage of that and leave trash and such that my kids and I go clean up on the weekends when we can...anyway a couple weeks back I hiked about 3 miles in and tucked myself way up under a bridge and hid out for hours just watching nature and nobody noticed I was there....kinda felt like a kid again....it was awesome...I might have stayed, but a curious coyote scared me off...I didn't want to get eaten lol
I use Red Light at night in and around my bivvy
I read the dark by contrast of the levels of shadows in the dark and the sound of what I give off bouncing around and off of objects, also I count my steps while using photographic memory of my surroundings in the last of the daylight of up to either the closest tall grass line (concealment) or Rock crop and/or tree cluster if I need to be out and about also I prepare everything before nightfall to not have to leave a 2 meter circle inside camp and if so I leave inexpensive doubles of nessary equipment off sight and count back steps and break to recount at turns back to the tent
I don't use light at all in stealth camping
And can't afford n.v.g.s, lol
I rarely use any light source at night...Too much chance of being spotted. So when I do, I use my hand to envelope the light so it only produces a narrow beam, and only when I need to find something, else I rely on my night vision.
GREAT ivdeo...Fave part? That little cow with the black eyes. Adorable!
The one that really gets me is when a bush-craft "expert" decides to teach us stealth camping while using a very-bright-colored tent, backpack, and sleeping bag,
It was steve wallace walking out of the forest after his stealth camp. 😁
“Stealth camping” 😂
Careful, don’t get busted by any of the other people doing the same thing!
I’m going to Walmart to do some stealth shopping! Hopefully I don’t get caught!
Stealth shopping! 🤣
Sounds like code for stealing. Going to stick that in a story one day lol
24 hour challenge? 😂
You hide in Walmart for the night...
Yeah but he’s doing it!
I talk to cows just like you did Luke...that was my favourite part...
Your the reason why I endure and enjoy my time in the rain. Testing my self. I was reluctant until I came across a past video and went out in the rain. Made a small fire under the tarp . Collected fire wood under the tarp. This video showing your enjoyment of whatever the weather throws at you and just laughing shows me why I do it and why I am now filming myself and practicing ready to have my own you tube channel. Strength and honor dude. Karl
Enjoyed this weeks episode! Loved the cow!! So awesome!!!
Hmm. I think I'll stick with my hammock. Easier, faster, drier, and more fun.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching that. Thank you for sharing that here!
I downloaded Gaia too and so many places in my area I didn't know about for possible stealth camps. So double thanks
👋🏼😉👍🏼
Lived close to Tillamook once upon a time. Lots of cow products.
4:55 Dang the graphics in Rust have really come a long way!
I will say that the fog rolling in and the egress into the fog are among my favorite parts.
Years ago I drove from Oregon City to Astoria, down the coast *TILLAMOOK* and back to Oregon City, making many stops along the way. Such a beautiful part of the US out there.
Traffic noise... That's why I love sailing: Out there, where there is no engine noise anywhere... it's like a different planet. Really pleasant.
Your Grandfather, may not have been very pleasant, but he taught you a very valuable lesson.
OG Savage It’s amazing today how much time the average American wastes.
It would have been hilarious if you were talking about stealth camping and someone peaks from around a tree behind you.
I would love to try this
So I’m basically your neighbor and I have a theory on the weather. Every time I try to ride my motorcycle the weather flops on me. Even if the forecast is completely clear, if I ride my bike, it rains. Never fails, I could put money on it. So I must’ve rode when you filmed this.
Something incredibly ironic about recording and uploading videos of stealth camping. Nonetheless, I do appreciate watching them.
Props on the filming man 👍 it takes a lot of extra work and walking and weight to film like this. Great job!
I go to Tillamook all the time, never heard of these guys lol. Great town, FANTASTIC ice cream.
Always like a stealth camping video.
Your pictures of the waterfalls were great
That cow was in LOVE with you! Lol
Thanks for the video Luke.
What a risk taker. What a stealth camper!
Yes, I Concur With These Statements. I was taught to walk with a purpose, maintain my composure, keep my military bearing in order and practice Situational Awareness at all times.
💯👍👍😎🌞🇺🇸
Cool story
I've done this at a regular campground in college, in at 2200 out at 0500, LOL. It was an emergency :P
The smile on Lukes face when he chose the opening music for this video "They're going to like this". Yes, yes sir, you are correct.
Great video. I love getting up on a foggy morning while camping and listen to the quiet. Everything is still except for maybe a bird or two... Sipping on a hot cup coffee or chocolate. Oh, yesss! (Your photography is beautiful!)
Cool, great info. Thanks for the experience..
You ain't no Steve Wallace yet, Luke...
He needs a Crazy Neighbor.
I’m going camping for my birthday this weekend so happy
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday!
That’s awesome Luke !
Tillamook Oregon is beautiful coastal area. Tillamook cheese is also big.
