Hey Luke. I'm a 16 y/o male in Eastern NC and I've started watching your videos a lot recently. I have to say, I love your channel. Your "dinner stories" are great. It amazes me how you stay so happy and lively, even if you didn't have the best trip. These videos have inspired me to go out and start backpacking more. I went to africa this past summer and ever since I got back, life seems boring. I miss the adventure and I miss the travel. Your videos really show me that camping is a good way to get that travel thrill. Thank you so much! -Nick

[@timothyciarlette8250]

Luke, this is one of my favorites. I do appreciate all the time money and effort you put into these videos. I am also entertained by your viewers comments, "Use the poles, Luke, Use the poles" had me rolling. Thanks again for teaching me(us) how to go backpacking.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Haha Thank you so much Timothy. I'm glad you enjoy the videos my friend. Be well and take care my friend. - Luke

[@carpenjk]

Gregory Alan Isakov has you to thank for him gaining one more fan. Nicely done, Luke.

[@jdcpac]

WOW another great video. I enjoy and learn from all your videos but I must admit that I really love the overnights the most. Although without the reviews I would not have learned about which gear to purchase except through trial and error which can be very costly. I think I have watched most of your videos on KZbin so now I scroll through and watch again. Anytime I am getting ready to make a purchase of something costly I will watch your videos about those items many times so that I know all the pros and cons. So once again Luke I just want to say Thank You for making great educational and informative and entertaining videos.

[@kevincorgel3384]

Love it that you camp in any weather, your a trooper! Thanks Luke

[@lilbit68s41]

I KNOW ITS BEEN YEARS BUT YOUR VIDEOS ARE AWESOME, YOUR PASSION FOR CAMPING AND YOU GO DETAIL BY DETAILS ON THE GEAR YOU USE AND HOW TO SURVIVE IN STORMS YOUR THE GREATEST 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@sandrapetty4081]

I like watching your videos. It reminds me of when I was able to out to different state parks and camp with my family. Now since my son likes to go camping I continue watch so that I can help him make sure he has good gear for his trips.

[@wgrillojr]

Fires are always the hungriest friend in camp. Always enjoy your hike/camp videos. Glad I came across one I never watched even if it is 5 years old.

[@moxapunk1]

Hi Luke, just came across your channel and I really like it, gear reviews and a simple upbeat take on Bushcraft, I love your attitude- you're not trying to be a doomist military prepper which is great. Both you and MCQ Bushcraft have convinced me to start filming some of my own Aussie adventures.Couldn't peel the bark off a tree like that without spiders or ants running out everywhere though haha. Keep it up mate, I look forward to checking out your other videos. Cheers.

[@christinemartin8095]

7 years ago, you have not aged a bit. I love your work,

[@valeriedurr5547]

It’s very beautiful scenery enjoy being with you all look at the beautiful scenery Luke I do appreciate very much

[@ernestpaul2484]

Keep listing your music selections for your videos. Your choices are some of the most relaxing I have ever heard. Believe me when I say it really helps.

[@christhornley1664]

Love your vids Luke. There's nothing like the great outdoors. I'm planning some one nighters just using a bivvy and a wool blanket. It never gets too cold here in the UK anymore. We don't get the really hard Winters we used to get years ago, so I should be OK.

[@lotsoffish]

Even though it's 6 years old I think this is the best video you ever made.

[@raymondjones5093]

Great video Luke!!! Keep the overnight adventures coming!!!

[@greenmedicinetm299]

You rock Luke. I like all the ideas and things you make points about thanks!!

[@GamingWithEvalon2]

Glad you appreciate leather sheaths too man, been watching all of your camping videos and have truly enjoyed them. You talk a lot about different things and it keeps the video both entertaining and interesting. Keep making videos man i love them

[@joeyjones9041]

I have the entire Woodland MSS Sleep System and also have the Gen 2 ILBE main pack with the Source water carrier & bladder and i love them both. You cannot go wrong with surplus. Aquaquest Defender 10x10 tarp, one of those OD green mylar blankets, Klymit Static V Recon insulated pad, and Snugpak Basecamp Ops pillow round out my sleep/shelter system. Thanks for the videos, they have helped determine my gear choices.

[@freespirit6209]

Love your campouts in the snow - never boring!!

[@fibrodad1354]

the intro music is lovely.

[@s.g.mcwade78]

The stable song by Gregory Alan Isakov.

[@esthero.torres2738]

What a difference 10 years make. Luke has gotten better.

[@GruntProof]

The Intro is great man, mainly because it summarizes why we get out to the wilderness!

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Haha Thank you so much my friend. I have more in the works and I can't wait to do them. :) Thanks for watching.

[@davidcoombes-pearce4533]

So happy I found this old one. ☺️

[@Mountainbum1876]

I really enjoy your videos! Way better than tv. Thanks for all your hard work you put into them.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you Richard, all is appreciated. If you get out and record it, I'd love to watch it too.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you my friend. Winter Camping is my favorite for sure! Be safe as well Ireland.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

That's a great idea! I have a food video coming up tomorrow actually. Thanks for the suggestions.

[@PaddleBunk]

Great video! I normally stomp the snow down and let it settle for about 20min before I place my shelter on top. But you looked to have enjoyed your set up well enough! Thanks! Bunk

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

My friend thank you so much for your kind words. They mean a lot. :) I'm glad you enjoy the videos and I'm glad you are enjoying the Marmot Precip jacket (I love them too). I will be out tomorrow making another video; a 15 miler on the Tanawha Trail in Western NC. Some amazing sights! It should be up later in the week. Thank you so much for watching my friend and for your positive comments. Take care of yourself. -Luke

[@WeldedDiff84]

dude love ur camping videos. You need to make more overnight videos. Keep up the good work.

[@RobsAdventuresAndVideos]

Luke I’m glad I stumbled upon your videos. I definitely subscribed. I also am a outdoors person camping hunting and mostly survival. You give great tips and ideas on everything which is great. You can never learn to much about the outdoors and survival and the items that stand up to Mother Nature thank you for your opinions on some of the gear you use. Be safe on all your adventures buddy. ⛺️ 🔥 🦌 🦃

[@jritch0412]

thanks for the quick response my friend! things have been well, i hope you're recovering from your injury equally well

[@melvinhowell5469]

3 years old now, but still a great video, Luke...God bless, brother...

[@KittyF80]

Today called for an extra dose of TOGR. Rough day "in the office"; perfect evening for some outdoor-ness osmosis.

[@HeManshoooo]

Good old days Luke! Was waiting for good snow adventures for this winter. But I guess lone wolf Mt. didn't receive much this year. So I thought of checking out your older videos. You look so young. Glad I checked this video. I can definitely see the huge difference from then and now in all technical aspects. But what remains the same is your style. 😄 Just more experienced now. If you do see this comment can you please make a video on the camera equipment you used over the years. That would be interesting 🤔

[@captaindj9790]

It’s July 2022 Oh my! I’ve been going in reverse and you are just a young whipper snapper here!😂😂 You remind me so much of my son. He’s in Knoxville at UT. Im in SanDiego now. We camped so much. His sister got married, I got remarried after mom died from Cystic Fibrosis and Austin stayed behind at UT.

[@MakeMoreMusicOk]

TY for the Full Moon Outdoor Adventure!!!!!

[@80casual]

Wow, absolutely love your videos, I'm so glad I found your chanel! Very informative with a plenty of experience and knowledge, and most importantly you not only just talk about how to do things in the great outdoors, but also demostrate and share the techniques! By the way, after watching your review of the Marmot Precip jacket I bought one for myself, and it's absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for your effort for making all these great videos, now I'm addicted to your chanel lol. :)

[@cn7449]

Binge watching your videos and dreaming about going camping myself. Also loving the music selection on this one -- Gregory Alan Isakov is wonderful!

[@GruntProof]

Great video broseph! I got the ILBE for my northern CA expeditions

[@stevebennett1584]

Hey Luke, nice video, love your attitude and outlook. Get yourself some bungees and bungee that pack to a tree, up off the ground,... and a collapsible camp shovel is worth its' weight in gold all year long... We'll be watching, take care, CHEERS, and blessings to you and yours. 3 years late I know.

[@last2nkow]

I'm taking your advice tomorrow. a day trip to a trail I know to cook a BBQ and practice my new tent. I plan to be home by nightfall but I'm taking precautions. thanks for these trips

[@beamer6136]

Hey Luke, You need to take along some company.... Solo is good to get in touch with nature, but hanging with a buddy or two is always a great thing...

[@nightvan4427]

Hi, my good friend. Thank you for your try to make people happy.

[@Forestwalker111]

Very bold use of the tyvek, I'd go crazy. Lol Loved the comparison to a bag of chips. Nailed it there. Loved the repurpose seat pad. Lol high vis too!!!! Have yet to use my fish mouth hanger for my pathfinder cup. Great call on the cheese. My daughter asked why you'd put the cheese in the cup and not in your mouth? Lol. Beauty. Lol I told her you were going to eat it. Lol Great trip. On to the next one, for me..to watch, lol Be well Luke Craig

[@robertmeintzer]

Man that snow and wet wood makes every thing more difficult! But you did a really good job for a Yawner! lol

[@connorstamper20]

Well first video of yours ive watched and subscribed instantly! Great video! Just got back from a night camp in a local wood and can only wish we had snow as deep in england As we get nothing! But still all of us backpacking campers do it for the love of the outdooors! Keep up the good work :)

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you Rudy! I don't even remember what song I used in this video. In the morning I will check and let you know. Take care.

[@lisat211]

Luke, I love watching your videos. Been watching for years. I notice you eat a pot of rice. You could make your rice in advance and then dehydrate it and it will cook much faster. I have a large family and always have leftover rice.I do the same and when I fill a jar I make dehydrated meals for camping!

[@MakeMoreMusicOk]

Thx much for your personal tips, this one is also gff 😋 yummy 😋

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you my friend. Take care.

[@charlesmandrell5161]

Luke I was enjoying your vids again and I noticed you using foil on your Pathfinder cup. Pathfinder now has lids to fit this great pots, that is slotted for the bails. Stay in the dirt man, and keep up the wonderful work and dedication!

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Hey there Charles, how are you? As for the lid, I've seen those but the last time I looked at them they were Incredibly overpriced. Maybe that has changed though. Be well my friend and take care. - Luke

[@charlesmandrell5161]

Hi Luke, just getting back with you on the canteen lid. Dave has GI style canteen cup lids right now for $6.00 as an option to your "bag canteen", I see you carry. Myself here in the northern Rockies it's a must for stainless or titanium canteens. Stay in the dirt my new friend and keep the wonderful vid's coming. I sure do enjoy watching watching them.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

That's a much better price. They use to be something like $20 and I wouldn't spend that much on a lid. Be well my brother and take care. - Luke

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thanks pal. Hope you are well. The bottle set that you see is from the Pathfinder School (Dave Cant.). They call it the The Pathfinder 32oz Stainless Steel Bottle & Cup Set with The Pathfinder Pack Stove & Grill Top. I think they have a whole set that you can purchase at a cheap price now (around $50). That song is called the Stable Song by Gregory Alan Isakov. Love it.

[@gregblock5294]

I love your videos get my outdoor fix on lol

[@lacrossed55]

Like that The Predator joined at the end

[@WeldedDiff84]

This was the video that mad me subscribe. keep it up dude!

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

That's awesome James. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Take care and be well. - Luke

[@Matt-ik7dh]

I was really pumped to here Gregory Alan Isakov at the beginning... I like you a lot better every video haha

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you my friend. Take care of yourself.

[@gashosimon2678]

My God that is a beautiful song at the beginning.

[@joannconfer1144]

Another great adventure. Thanks

[@cherylwallacewayaunega]

Ricky Martin, I enjoy your videos and find them informative. Thank you, Ed

[@ZZoutdoors]

MAN! I missed the like button on this one! Great video Luke! Thanks. ZZ.

[@MegaSusanc]

Awesome as always Luke

[@davesworld85100]

love it i wish we could do this short of camping in eingland

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thanks Ogy. Much appreciated. :)

[@blackmoss5340]

You've come a long way man

[@CarlosPortoPhotography]

Great ( long ) video but I enjoy each moment Thank You for sharing it.

[@docding]

Not sure if you know by now but stick that tyvek in the dryer with some tennis balls low to no heat repeat maybe a couple of times or use dryer in laundromat should get rid of the crinckling

[@ciscod3488]

Hi Luke, its your Serbian follower again! I remember going camping with my cousin last winter and i brought a pencil with my pencil sharpener. The wood that falls of as waste can be used as a great tinder! :) Uros, your young follower

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

ciscoD3 Hey there brother, how are things going for? You made a great point about the pencil sharpener. It really does work well for fine tender. Cheers my friend. - Luke

[@ciscod3488]

TheOutdoorGearReview Things are going great! I planned another camping trip with 4 friends! I am really looking forward to it. Oh and I was wondering, what are your thoughts on the Gerber Bear Grylls folding knife, because I found it on a camping website for 25 bucks. It seems cheap, but I wanted to hear an expert opinion. ;)

[@scottlamberton9587]

Hey Luke, hope you and your family's well. I love your videos, I watch them everyday day. When did you first start camping or has it always been a passion ? I'm relatively new to camping but I'm not in a rush to do it again after a bad experience the first time. Have you every had any bad experiences camping ?

[@mohannedhamza4495]

What a song man... Gregory alan isakov stable song.. My fav

[@ireland66613]

Awsome vid great well done winter backpacking my favorite here in MA and new england be safe enjoy brother

[@beartrackwoods4720]

Awesome video. Thank you!

[@saetmusic]

Loved the video! An amazing amount of information! One question- what pants are you wearing? They seem to fit well and work well in the snow etc.

[@fireyourrocketts]

Now you make me want this pack too...you played no small in my decision to get the Eberlestock Skykrane II, I got extras including an extra belt to use the little brother by itself and also the aluminum frame..oh well, I thought I was done with the pack then you show this one, hahahaha it will never ends eh?

[@40belowful]

Very wet snow you get there compared to here in Fairbanks Alaska..we are very dry snow:) and it stays for 7 months. Also with winter camping you should bring light weight shovel:)

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

You are welcome mate. Thank god I am better from that one. That was the worst couple of months I have ever had. Talk about a bizarre injury. Haha

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you my friend. ;)

[@Top-Jimmy]

Awesome gear mate!

[@gkling33]

I may be wrong, but I remember watching a youtube vid where a guy was talking about the Tyvek footprint...he explained that you can put the new Tyvek into the washing machine (on gentle cycle, with NO soap) and when it comes out, it is still waterproof, BUT, it is no longer "crunchy"....its softer, more pliable...so when you sleep on it, it doesn't make noise, etc.. Here's an example of the "washed" version: Bak Pack: Groundsheets and Footprints, TYVEK vs. Tarp

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Hey there Greg, I too have heard of doing this and from the looks of it, it works well. Honestly though the noise doesn't really bother me. Great suggestion brother. - Luke

[@JamesRobertson0310]

Love the vids .... keep em coming n ill keep watching

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thank you brother!

[@kinghenry056]

I know this video is 7 years and I literally just watched it today. So the gortex boots and gear are most effective when your body is already heated up. So do some jumping jacks or run in place for a few minutes and then put boots on. What happens is the gortex traps the heat in and keeps you warm. If you just throw the boots on when your body is not warmed up it has no heat to keep your feet warm.

[@SurvivalRox]

A WELL PRODUCED AND INFORMATIVE VIDEO THANKS FOR POSTING...

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Thanks pal. Hope you can get outdoors soon. ;)

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Haha I know right! Haha It seems like I couldn't get the camera to focus on the moon. Oh well...maybe next time. Thanks my friend. Take care of yourself.

[@criticalthinking3861]

I think the stable song fits you well my friend. 🙂

[@bennyvoncannon5134]

Out there tonight my friend only a lot warmer.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Enjoy it Benny and be well. I can't wait to see some pics. :) - Luke

[@Darkshadow715]

Great as always! :)

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Wow thank you so much. I really appreciate that. I was hoping I didn't make it too long and boring. ;)

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Hey there Sam, how are you? As for hammock camping, I'm very much a hammock newbie but my next trip out will be with one. Looking forward to it indeed. What hammock do you use?

[@tboy221]

you should do a food video maybe in your backyard about good hiking meals and recipes. you can do them over the course of multiple days and edit them together into 1 video so your not wasting money and food. i think instant potatoes i saw some pasta packages easy macaroni and cheese, those are what i can think of but what types of stuff have you cooked? watching you cook and eat that meal got me thinking and made the video exciting. i get the idea of everything else, some great tips

[@fireflyrocks1]

Oh wow, the song.. the song

[@fartman10284]

In case you wonder, the song is: the stable song by gregory alan isakov

[@TheScaryflick]

Great song !!

[@campetto68]

You are an excellent actor, speaker, consultant, cameraman, director, producer ...and probably also the chef :)) - all in one person! ;) I enjoyed your movie! :) Now I have to find that your backpack or any other of its kind (maybe some advice?) :)) Greetings from Croatia! Ogy

[@steffenw.brandenstein9656]

Love me some Gregory Alan Isakov as well ;)

[@jeromychristensen7009]

I agree with Frank So yo7 beat and yes luke you also remind me of les Stroud but also I just recently found your channel I love it I'm no novice to woodsmanship or survival or bushcraft like the positivity and not only can I possibly learn more cause no man or woman can have to much knowledge but maybe learn how to live more positive fulfilling life thanks luke!

[@russelldraine2071]

Luke were you under the weather in this video? Love your videos man been a fan for 5+ years now

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

You could do that but it takes time. Especially melting snow. Cheers!

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

Yes there is. An old family home that was never completed.
