A Nearby Monster Storm - Camping in the Remote Mountains with a Cheap Temu Tent - Camping Adventure

[@roseumlauf8005]

Hi Luke, Quick tip...When cooking, the fire is hottest directly under the pan. Don't let the fire go around the sides of the pan. It is wasted heat. Just wanted to share... 😁

[@richard_n]

This episode highlights why I always bring an extra meal on trips. You never know when a meal will be bad or if you get stuck out in the woods longer than you planned.

[@Im_With_Stupid]

Extra meal = extra granola bars and Swiss Miss packs. At least for me.

[@nelsonward7981]

At least an extra day. Mountain house and some instant oatmeal packs.

[@chrissys9968]

Hey Luke 'Susie' I'm glad you had some granolas and Pistachios and that coffee. Glad your okay safe Journeys to the next spot. LOVE and GOD Bless You all Aloha Always Sister Chrissy Honolulu Hi 💙⚘🔥🕊🙏

[@HUNTENMASTA1337]

I always try to bring an extra day or two of food depending on the length of the trip, you never know

[@anthonyboatright6960]

Using Natural elements to anchor the tent is a Genuis idea!

[@patriciaegan7244]

I think what sparked my interest is how organized you are with your camping gear.

[@sharoneddy3097]

Luke you and Susie seem like wonderful people. Please tell your daughter that I thank her for her service. My family has had many military service. We know and appreciate the sacrifices you guys make. I love watching you and Susie’s videos. We use to love camping but now with our health, we can’t go anymore. I get my outdoor camping through watching you. I also love the storms. Not necessary the snow.😆. God bless you all.

[@christopherdawes4414]

I learnt the hard way that you need to pack in more food than just the one / two meals. That hard way was snowed in 30+ kilometres away from a public road for 4 days whilst out for an afternoon hunt. Not much fun, and thankfully the weather changed and I could get back to civilisation in my truck. Whilst it was a bit of scare at the time, I had a stack of food, both dried and frozen to choose from. I ran out of coffee but had tea and more so my morale and attitude was maintained. Never over estimate the effect a good soup or misto can give you. Now, even when hiking, I pack enough for 4-6 days minimum in dried packs and loose mix.. I does not weigh much, and is real peace of mind if the weather turns. Nice to have a choice too to eat in the evening.

[@azclaimjumper]

Well put. I always carry strips of pre-cooked bacon which goes with or without anything, anytime, anywhere. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

[@janiceclark2194]

😮ym

[@mitmaur]

Maybe you can talk a little about the types of knots you use for setting up your tarps. I really enjoy your channel!

[@willothewispl]

Luke I am not up to camping anymore but I love to sit way back on the porch and watch the rain. And sometimes stay out there if the storm is not too bad. Great camping videos. I have bought a few things you have used there. Doing a bit of prepping just in case. You never know when the electric or gas will be off for whatever reason. Learning how to use these things watching you. Then practicing here with them. Thank you, God Bless.

[@kathleengentile9298]

Love you and your family too 😊..please be safe driving too. Katie

[@petercollington8863]

Thanks to you I’ve gone out camping I e got a heart condition the doctor has said due to what I’m doing for some reason is helping and I thank you for that

[@bban109]

Good choice not eating that food,I think your story from the elevator was funny too,and friendly.thanks for sharing it with us Luke.

[@markdaddario1941]

I've watched perhaps every single video, gaining knowledge, thanking past people and experiences for showing their sharing of knowledge and training is backed up by your experiences so often, and one thing I want to pass on is the need to let people know that counting on accurate weather reports can get you killed if you are not prepared. So many people bring gear that is right on the edge, depending on weather forecasts as rock solid and then face adverse conditions their gear was not appropriate for. Primarily, the wrong insulation/weather blocking gear, whether it be the shelter, sleeping setup, or clothing. In this video you were expecting bad weather yet early on it was gorgeous. Accurate weather for specific locations and times is still scientific guesswork. Definitely check the reports, but prepare for worse conditions than the reports may indicate! Thanks Luke, for all the enjoyable and educational videos!

[@azclaimjumper]

Well Put. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

[@chuffin-nora6568]

Not sure if it's the same in the USA but here in UK you can count on deciduous trees to tell if it going to rain, the leaves on the trees point to the ground if rain on the way and the older the tree the more reliable.. it works too. My grandad bless him knew the weather before the weatherman . nature is not just beautiful it's clever.

[@Imn8ive]

I’m native am. N my elders taught us if the leaves go silver. Meaning they “flip” so upside is downward means rain.

[@gwenfowler1826]

I really enjoy your videos. I wish I was younger, am 77, and in good physical health. I love camping. ❤️ Thanks for sharing your trips, even if this is over a year old. 😁

[@The_Ghost_In_The_Machine_]

Thursday. 11AM. New storm camping video from Luke. Life is good! Thank you Luke! Cheers 🍻

[@reneesample2430]

Giggling at you feeling like a celebrity! You are!!!

Oh, I'm a german viewer too.

[@ravingbadger]

wow maybe get in touch and share a kiss

[@rbaileyrb]

Never agreed to a comment so quickly. I love togr. Also love to Germany from the UK. And hello to anyone who may see this .

[@cortevens]

Sitting here watching your video laughing, not at you at my wife . She will watch if I'm watching your newest video. She came in sit down said "you watching the Wolf Ranger again" ? . That's what she calls you, then she said that poor man can't go out and camp not one time he don't get rained on !!!! Then you hear thunder rumble in the video . She said "see that's what I'm talking about" !!! I just busted up laughing .

[@JB50713]

Videography is excellent.

[@bobhead6243]

Hi Luke , Thank god there was enough Gas left for Coffee ! 🙂👍

[@beacee]

‘Bad weather’ means good content, thunder and lightning and much needed rain. And hopefully cool Fall temps!

[@erinhenry9750]

New sub binge watching older videos 👍❤from Michigan

[@proudtex]

As a knife nut, the way you paused to show the knife made me look it up in your description. That Sandvik 14C28N steel is a Great, tough, stainless steel. My last knife purchase was a lockback from Castillo of Spain with that steel but more expensive. At that price it's a good value, and a good choice! I may have to pick one up.

[@lawrencetalbot55]

We did a lot of camping in Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweeping 'cross the plain and the ground is a rocky pain... I use 12 inch timber spikes for tent stakes. They never pull out, even in the highest winds Oklahoma had to offer. I originally started using them to make staking out my tent easier. It was impossible to get those cheap aluminum stakes driven into the ground, because of the insane amount of rocks. Hasn't been an issue since. Ever!!

[@azclaimjumper]

Our soil here in Nevada has a high clay content & is concrete hard when dry; slippery as snot on a doorknob when wet. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

[@Emjackson89]

Fantastic video as always. Glad you didnt eat that food. Ive had food poisoning in the wild before and its not something i like to remind myself of tbh

[@kimunicorn]

[@ChefJeffrey2024]

Hey Luke, Chef Jeffrey Morris from Dallas Texas here I've been watching your channel for 3 years...I'm donating to all my favorite all time KZbin channels....super cool shout out to TOGR...Luke and Susie... Love the channel ❤️ 😊😊

[@ReRe-wd5sz]

Trees, Ferns and Quiet. My kind of fun. I love thunder and lightening while I camp. Thanks for the great video, Luke!

[@rosiebateson4498]

Luke makes the best storm camping videos on KZbin. They can be scary or sinister or worrying we just never know! ♥️

[@KevinNordstrom]

Naw. Lonewolf902 is better, but luke is great too

[@nedhenry733]

.. hi CC c c nb. B cub 😊

[@chrisbethmann3955]

Where was this storm idiot?

[@KajzarPL]

Hi Luke! I purchased a smaller triangular version of Fire Maple stove a month ago or so. I use it as a fireplace in my rather small garden just to have a possibility to have a fire and I love it! Greeting from Poland, Michal

[@cookieberkheiser7227]

Amazing tent price. It would be great if it doesn't leak.

[@ferebeefamily]

Thank you Luke for the video.

[@bonnieballew7762]

Always pack twice as much food as you think you need. Just in case you are out longer than you plan or as in this case some food was questionable.

[@willothewispl]

Yes I would carry a few meals and extra snacks just in case. You just never know. God Bless.

[@azclaimjumper]

I suspect the foil pouch integrity was compromised in some way. Hopefully, Luke will update us if he contacts Peak Refuel & let us know what they say.

[@moonbeam5176]

After watching Luke for sometime now it seems like he considers food as a necessary nuisance and doesn't want to waste to much time, space or weight on carrying it. But his coffee now that's a definite must have!😊 I would have taken at least a couple of those meals and alot more snacks, but Luke counts his broccoli 🥦 spears 😂 and brings 4 and thinks that's plenty! He eats better when his wife is along.👩‍❤️‍👨

[@mocpehusrainey4961]

No doubt about it snack foods and coffee are always the best choice for outdoor survival.

[@patsmart6536]

I can see the title " I brought 7 pieces of broccoli to the High Mountains and ate them all"

[@lindawoods6841]

I really enjoy these videos,, thank you Luke.

[@JanBee1122]

When I looked inside that bag of food, I thought: Cheese. I wonder if it was gorgonzola, because THAT cheese it THE stinkiest, smelliest FEET cheese in existence!! I got a meal with that at an Italian restaurant one time and literally had to send it back because I thought I was going to lose my cookies right at the table, lol! Great video, as usual. I always feel so peaceful after each episode. God bless you, Luke.

[@annieolender5160]

I lived in Florida for 40 years. Just moved to West Virginia 7 months ago. So far, it's the best decision I have ever made.

[@grandpamikee]

Great video!

[@thetejaz]

this is why i love your channel. you took the time to write down the names of the people you met. Iv watched so much youtube in my lifetime and i can say without a doubt iv never seen anyone do that and it shows truly how much you care. thank you and please dont ever change!

[@lindawoody8501]

Glad you both enjoyed FL. Nice you were so happily greeted by viewers and lucky about your First Class cabin airline ride down. You are smart to question eating suspicious smelling and looking foods you just opened. Don't want to sicken yourself. Hooray about your cabin's leak fix!

[@jackstem475]

Luke, I've had nights where I expelled "gas" all night long. And I wasn't camping. Keep the videos coming!

[@nomadzatara]

Time to bring an extra meal each time. Thanks for the adventure. S&H.

[@shadey111]

Florida is an adventure in and of itself 😮

[@nicklawrence2707]

Hi Luke, first of all you have forgotten more than I'll ever know about backpacking...but, I never use a full ridge-line either over or under the tarp. My experience with running a full ridge-line is (1) when it rains and a line is under the tarp, the rain will flow down the line and drip into the interior; and, (2) a full ridge-line uses too much line. If I want to hang items up in my tarp, I simply turn the tarp "upside down" so that the guy out points are inside the shelter, to which I hang my wet clothes, lights and whatever else strikes my fancy. Keep up the good work. Your vids are very informative.

[@nicklawrence2707]

@@squirrelcovers6340 maybe true, Squirrelcovers...but to me, knots are over-rated at camp...my set-up requires one knot (bowline) at the tree end (loop thru bowline and insert a toggle), then line lock hooks at the tent or tarp end to provide line adjustment. One line at each guy-out point. Does anyone use ridgelines anymore?.

[@jjhugscott]

Luke I really enjoy your channel watching you out on your trip bring joynto my days

[@kathyperez9695]

Me too😊

[@soniayoung7531]

Hi Luke nice to hear you had a fantastic reception in Florida and you had a wonderful time, you made a great choice not to eat the food better safe than sorry ,see you on lone wolf mountain,stay safe

[@angel19642001]

I always enjoy watching Yr videos over and over Thank you for sharing.

[@danealaska]

Thanks for reviewing this tent. I have seen it on Temu and was little skeptical about it. I hope it passes the water test. If it does I will order it right away.

[@michellereed5638]

Wise decision not to eat something questionable. In all the years our family went camping, we never succumbed to food poisoning. My folks were always careful to ice everything down, and get more ice before things thawed out, unless it was time to eat the items thawed. My mom even froze cracked open whole eggs/yokes so that we could have fresh eggs for breakfast a couple of mornings during our 7 day week campouts! She froze lots of our food, and the food became the ice packs! She was very clever. WE kept the ice chests under the pick nic tables, packed in the shadiest part of the campsite underneath thermal blankets to keep the chests really cold too. WE camped in July and August! WE usually did not need ice until the 4th day. You would have been impressed with my Mom's outdoor camp kitchen! A coleman 2 burner stove, plus a grill over the campfire! She really had things set up with how to wash the dishes too. She made hot H20, had a tub to wash and rinse tub too. WE used paperplates for the most part. She had spices too. Believe it or not Luke, but my mom also made homemade potatoe salad, she brought and also fresh fruit salad, and even fresh tossed green salad!! We did eat Hamburgers and hotdogs but also had healthy stuff too. WE had oatmeal for breakfast at least twice during camping week, and eggs and potatoes and either bacon or sausage a couple times too. We had cold cereal and milk twice a week, and break up camp day, we got to out for breakfast. We had lunch at the campsite pretty much 5 days a week and two lunches out. Dinner same way. Mom was a planner. With four kids and 2 adults camping for 6 nights 7 days one has to plan. We had the dog too. What I remember most, we had fun, even when it rained. Dad had the whole place tarped out from the tents to the picnic table and even had ground cover for walkways from the tents to the picnic table--we were not going to get rained out! WE went twice a year, once in July and again in August every year. WE had a blast. My favorite time of the year was camping with my family. WE loved it. We were spoiled because we camped at campgrounds with hot and cold running water and it was a hike to the flush toilets!! LOL But we were tent camping all the way! Once in a while we did the primitive camping where we dug our own latrines--and had to lug in our own water, and it was a wild place, and it was crazy camping. I mean crazy as in crazy out of control people would come around too. But we made out okay. Thanks for reminding me of those times. Blessings.!

[@craigkibbe1506]

Yo Luke! Just wanted to say I have that exact Fire Maple Stove and love it! I use it a lot! I've got a group of pics cooking steakes etc. Works so easily and quickly that I use it at home too. I even light it on the railing of my portch to bbq dinners. Works GREAT!!

[@ZappaZombieWolf]

Lovely area... lots of rain and storms...fabulous...Careful with all those preservatives, they can gut rot... cheeers...mate.

It's crazy to see a video there with no rain involved, stranger things have happened but not many...Nice camp Luke🏕 Florida trip sounded good, interactions with fans was a plus. Too bad about the meal, a backup would have been nice😉 The tent..we'll see. Thanks for the trip.

Hi Luke, I am really digging that Tent ! 👍💯✌️

[@R1scorpio]

Another Awesome vid!! Can't wait for full tent review!

[@jerrymyers870]

I would have put the tent under the tarp. I always have 2 layers to protect from rain or snow. Plus it protects the tent from falling debris like pine cones etc.

[@janicebetos7736]

I am following your test result with that tent. I am on the hunt for a good tent. If i could get away with a chrapnone but good quality its a win win for me

..Roll footprint down and keep under edges under tent to prevent water from puddling under tent .. and when rains are expected ,, trench the perimeter of your tent to drain away from you .... not fun being wet and cold ...

[@jlabelle1985]

Hey man. Iv been watching videos like this for a log time now. Just found your channel abought 2 months agao. I don't watch normal TV. Honestly if it's not camping or survival it don't realy intrest me. Every day I get home from work and put one of your videos on. Nothing els happens until it's over. It is AWESOME that you post new videos often. Love your review videos as I'm trying to build up my gear. The quiet place videos are also AWESOME. Keep it up big guy and thank you for everything. A new big fan......Joshua.

[@mlsknnr]

I hope that you at least wrote down the lot # and contacted PEAK about the meal. What is the small lantern that you are using, I don't see it in the gear list?

[@markall8641]

I do not think it will leak. Glad you and Susie had a great time in Florida. It’s a bit hot for my taste still at this point. But I make a trip every year to see my mom in late February to mid-late march dependent on time off.

Here in Washington state, today starts the nice weather, then like NC bam next Thursday, it's cold, and I mean cold for here. We've already received snow in our upper elevations, aka 5k and above.

[@Stricknine9]

Your videos are very informative and professionally done. Another great one Luke! Cheers.

[@Fiskeflett1]

one thing that struck me while you were eating those breakfast oatmeal bars. It's strange how we mix stuff in our mouths, that we would never ever mix in a bowl and eat, but while it's in our mouths, we mix almost any kind of food and/or drink in there. It's just me thinking of stupid things, but I find it kind of funny:)))) You make great and informative videos, cheers from norway.

[@davespoemsandsongs9497]

Luke it was a dry campsite with the tent you got from Temu, I think it's going waterproof that a good site buy thing on my buy things from them all the time

Nice video Luke. I am glad you and Susie had a good vacation. That was funny story.

[@kristenburkett4274]

If the tent turns out to be okay. It would be nice to maybe do an episode of nothing but temu camping. Where everything you use is from temu except maybe the food and clothes of course. Kinda like how you guys take your big trips and brake everything down on total costs.

Terrific camera angles during the intro. That takes a lot of time. Love your pack, I'll check in the description.

[@mhpupacios]

I bought a used Ultra a few months ago and it is amazing and a huge difference compared with the Series 1 watch I had. Great for scuba and snorkelling which I did in Greece this summer but recently I fell off a ladder and this was detected by the watch and would have sent an emergency call out if I had not said I was ok . I was impressed with that feature and see the value especially when out on a hike where there is treacherous terrain .

[@bass3587]

I ordered the tent since I don't have a 1 person tent. I really hope it's doesn't leak. Come on with that leak test Luke!!
