It was Lovely to watch!💞 I’m already following on Instagram. I have one question. What time is it over there? It’s 1am here on the east coast of us.😊

[@GauguaUvaiva]

​@CMoore8539 I believe we are about 17 hours apart. Right now, it is 8 pm Thursday in the US, 😊and it is 2 pm Friday in New Zealand.

[@tombouman4485]

The absolute best severe weather tent camping video I've seen. In spite of the intense weather you set up camp, built a much needed fire, cooked burgers, remained warm and slept, and then the grand finale: bacon and eggs in the morning! Very well done!

[@AbelandVictoria]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@tigressnsnow]

I didn’t appreciate. Always complaining. “This wood is terrible. So wet” The whole video showed what not to do unless you want to suffer in the outdoors.

[@Johnniebhoy83]

​@@tigressnsnowHe's actually not complaining, rather giving some audio description for viewers for how he's experiencing the conditions in the moment. That's kinda how YouTubing & vlogging works. 😄 Have a blessed one. 🙏

[@tigressnsnow]

@@Johnniebhoy83 I won’t be watching him again. It’s bad that we see him suffer, hear him suffer then have him describe that which is causing him to suffer. I prefer watching camping from South Korea.

[@DeuceGenius]

Nothing is more peaceful than the sound of the wind and a gentle rain on your tent. Some of the best nights of sleep I've ever had were in the woods.

[@monikamichaelis-iw3to]

Storm, what storm?

[@katehopkinsbrent5573]

I agree with you about the peace one finds in the woods. I lived with the woods all around me and 2 years ago an electrical fire in the middle of the night took it all after 38 years. After one winter in town in an apartment , not able to even find the stars, I bought a 1964 camper, put it up on the ole homestead as I had to start trying to tip down what was left … but by bit, I’m working at it. I’m 65 and everyone’s too busy to help and companies wanted $15000 to tear down what was left charred and erect. So… I’ll plug away at it BUT best part I’m STILL here, living full time in my little camper, with my dig and tend to the yard and my gardens and my hens. I sit out and watch the stars ♥️ No street lights, just black sky , coywolves howling down back in the woods, and I’m HOME ♥️ - just don’t wanna leave here. The land is as much HOME as the house was. And the rain on the metal roof 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤗🥰

[@monikamichaelis-iw3to]

@@katehopkinsbrent5573 Thank you for your story. Very nice, but outdoors is not my thing.Being blond and light skinned, I try to avoid direct sun. I enjoy looking at nature, seen a lot.

[@ivcmom75]

Brings back memories of camping in our heavy canvas cabin tent. This was back in the 60’s. Mom,dad and 4 little girls camping in all kinds of weather. That tent would come down in horrible storms and we’d have to sleep in the car. I’ve gone through a tornado in an outhouse!! Thanks for taking me back.

[@holdermeddk]

Finally I found somebody camping in conditions I know - rain! So many videos of people camping in mountains and snow. Rain like this is a challenge on a whole other level. Greetings from rainy Denmark 🇩🇰

[@MsMorganGirls]

We camped many nights in Western Washington State--the weather was very much like this, 36 degrees F, raining sideways. I thought I would stay dry with rain gear--ha! I was soaked the entire time. But it was memorable and we have many camping/hunting stories.

[@cloudbringer104]

It's my first time too. I'm under the duvet with electric blanket on, and one of my cuddled in beside me.

[@GenauMann]

Loved it!!.. Awesome!!..These are the memories you will always have of wild camping, because camping in these conditions is always "on the the edge of your seat stuff"....When you are back home and carrying on in life it gives you the "warm and fuzzies" inside, and you can't wait to get back out there and do it all again.🤪

[@carlbecker7179]

I enjoy watching your camping videos in the rain while I'm nice and cozy in my bed resting.👍

Young man, that fire is like you. It won't quit. I'm getting cold watching the rain lashing down, and now I have a blanket around me. OMG.

[@AbelandVictoria]

Lol yes

[@AniwayasSong]

Hope for the best, but *PREPARE* for the worse is a damned good philosophy! Decades ago, I and a GF spent two weeks in the Sierra Nevada Mtns. of Central CA. Our first night, we arrived at the campsite very late, but after setting up our tent, while she was getting ready to retire, I stayed up, setting overhead tarps for the tent, our fire pit, and the nearby table. Then I dug a trench/drain-line around our tent and away (downhill). She kept harping on me to just come to bed, and I just kept going till I was satisfied. Next day, the Heaven's opened-up, and we had downpours/wind/hail/thunderstorms, for the next four days! Then, she understood the importance of proper set-up, and we had a wonderful time! Lovely video, GREAT Tempest-Watching, and very happy you were able to record it and then share it with us! :-D

[@melaniesears5783]

I miss it. I love hearing rain on my tent, while I’m all snuggled deep into my warm sleeping bag, hoodie pulled tight around my face. This has been wonderful to watch. Thanks for taking us with you!

So awesome cozy tent in rain at night. Thank you so much for the video.

[@PaulSmith-ff1wy]

Brilliant camping trip, I understand completely the enjoyment factor. I'm 76 yrs old and and just come off the Matterhorn in Switzerland. Not the full climb, just hike to Hornlihutte. Well done indeed , there's a lot of satisfaction in knowing what to do when the weather gets challenging and you can keep yourself safe and even alive. I'm like you, can't wait to see what Mother Nature can chuck at me next. Stay safe, have fun and enjoy the bio-therapy. Regards Paul in Melbourne, Australia

That fire was critical for you Abel. The heat, ambience , cooking, drying out. Very nice work, you rock! And the burgers, goodness. And your editing is superb, the best! Carry on!

[@philiphjelsand5167]

What's the point of the fire? You have a stove for cooking.

If you don't know the benefits of a fire, Phillip, I doubt I can explain it to you.@@philiphjelsand5167

[@johnferry7778]

@@philiphjelsand5167Totally agree, there was no point in that fire, he got soaked through collecting wood, he couldn’t build it close enough to the tent because of the wind, he couldn’t use it to dry off because he had to keep his waterproofs on and he didn’t need it for cooking, I think it was just for the purposes of film content. I would have took off my wet stuff in the tent then got in my sleeping bag and watched a film on my IPad. Would have made a short and dull video though.

[@chuckwagon1892]

​@johnferry7778 ... Actually, for many people like myself, a fire is comforting, even if only to tend and gaze upon. Getting it going in the rain is hard, but worth the effort.

[@barbn1211]

Wow! Much respect to you, Abel, for enduring all aspects of the camp. Climbing for 3 hours with that huge backpack, managing to build a fire, and cooking fantastic meals in freezing temps are just a few of the obstacles you overcame, all while filming. Honorable mention goes to your tarp placement, which was perfect and amazingly allowed you to sit outside your tent in the driving rain. Therefore, I hereby annoint you "King of Tarps." Great job and much appreciated!

[@AbelandVictoria]

Thanks. It is much more difficult than most people realise I think. Unless you have been out in there conditions hard to understand. Filming it is anther level of stress lol.

Hi Able 👋 You did fantastic. No matter how wet you got you just kept on plugging away at your pitch. What a trooper !!! You are far and away, the best of the Kiwis. Your personality is a lot easier to swallow than T...'s, and the New Zealand family that is presently touring our country is wonderful, but they are a different ❤theater altogether. They haven't lost their innocence yet. Able.....you have. Love when Victoria comes along. This adventure would not have been a good one. You both would've got in each other's way. Would've been funny, but would've tested your patience to the max. Divorces are made of that.Take care of yourself, Able, and get warm and dry. See you soon. ❤

Your videos also got me in a better mindset, helping me clear my mind of all the clutter and focus on how i want to shape my future and what is important to ME here in life.

I found a cave on my property about 15 years ago. The entrance is about 5X5 feet but inside it about 20X30 X12 feet tall. I love camping in it during storms. If we get Tornado warning my wife comes with and we ride out the severe weather together. We've had two Tornados in that time one passed close enough we could see it and all the crap flying around, it was awesome. I've built a queen size bed, tables and chairs, end tables. a large fireplace and other creature comforts in the cave. It's out home away from home in bad weather. You should have gone the extra mile and fried up some hash browns.

[@navinbabji]

Wait, a fire place inside a cave??? How did you manage to put a chimney, did you dig a hole in the cave ceiling to put the chimney in or do you run a pipe along the walls to the outside through the entrance?

I was on a 12 day canoe trip and it rained every damn day. Still remember it vividly, as we had 250 lb 8 person canoes to carry as well. At 17 years old, it was life altering. We planned the trip ourselves, bought and packed the food ourselves. We had one canoe with teachers, but they stood by and were just observing and there for safety. If you got lost with bad navigation, they let you lol. They purposely put guys in same canoes that did NOT get along. This was in the vast park of Quetico in Northern Canada. It was called Outers and you attained 1 credit as long as you did 40 hrs community work as well. There was fall trips, winter camping/snowshoeing , and an all overnight navigating snowshoeing trip.

That reminded me of when me and my mum went camping overnight, we were jump judges at a cross country horse event, it was too far away to get their early the next morning, so we camped overnight. It a hot barmy June afternoon when we set out, by the time we got there a storm had blown in, absolute deluge and high winds. So we stripped off down to our underwear to pitch the tent, because we didn't have spare clothes. We also had to batten the tent down with an extra tarp over the top to keep the tent from being blown flat. The storm settled down and we all had a great evening, went to bed about 10pm, it got really cold in the night and when we got up in the morning there was a good 10 inches of snow. So that was that for the cross country event, they canceled it. We then had to wait until late afternoon for the snow to melt so we could pack up, get out of the field and go home. Happy days.. 🤣

Been there done that, in November 2019 on the south coast of England, there was a massive storm coming in from the English Channel while on a tour of the coastal areas. I had fun trying to put up a poncho so I could eat, thank god I had my tent up before the main storm hit me..
