TOO Close! Big Storms in the High Mountains - Rain Camping Adventure

[@krisk4513]

I could listen to thunder and rain all day

[@GDoggy-em2xc]

And all night

[@dasreich8307]

Same.

[@DonnaCronin-v1c]

Me too I love it!!

[@xmateinc]

Haven’t camped in about 10 years due to work, and depression. But stopped drinking almost a year ago and now I’m ready to camp again, spent A lot of money on new camping gear, and the first weekend Im going out, its gonna rain… Guess it will be a good test of the new stuff. I got the big Agnes black tail hotel 3 backpacking tent so lets hope it doesnt leak!

[@jack_walt]

Happy to hear you’re getting back out there. Hope you have a great time!

[@xmateinc]

@Ian.. thanks, I just laugh at my luck sometimes. It’s gonna be 70 and sunny till Saturday, then on Sunday, the day I’m leaving, its gonna be 62 and raining. Riding 70 miles to get to the camp site on my bicycle. Would’ve been nice to catch some of this good weather we’re getting on the oregon coast.

[@cynthiaivers1708]

Congrats on your sobriety. It’s now time to camp again!

[@crystalawrey2362]

Congratulations on your new journey in life! Just take an extra tarp if it start leaking throw the tarp over it! Enjoy the trip!

[@xmateinc]

@@crystalawrey2362 Oh yea I got a tarp. Gonna be my first time setting one up but I got some of this channels tarp set ups downloaded to help.

[@jonuvark2385]

I love the way you talk to us as if we are there with you. I also think you are the best nature videographer. Far out performing anyone else on YT. Yup... I'm a fan!👍

[@mylesgrubb8065]

A bite of pound cake, a sip of coffee. That took me back, to the 80's. Cold coffee and a MRE .

[@LloydBare]

Luke you just saved my day I am so glad you're there I'm 73 years old and I will so bored I was actually in pain and then I seen you had a new video

[@rlast2845]

Great camerawork as always, Luke. Thanks for continuing to bring us these videos!

[@barbarasmith8180]

I love you guys, Suzie & Luke!

[@garyjordan4735]

Good to know you weren't alone on the mountain. Eye shine at 36.55, just left of the tree. All the best.

[@yurrryurrr1463]

Luke is the kind of guy that’ll go camping while the snow storms is destroying everything around him and smile 😂

[@kinjiru731]

Love the opening time lapse with the clouds.

[@1robdavidson]

I forgot to comment on your last video about how much I appreciate your efforts in editing these videos, makes it feel almost like we’re there with you. Also the sound quality is amazing. Great job as always Luke. Take care and be safe.

[@Emjackson89]

Another incredible trip. This channel has helped me get back out and in nature again. Strength and Honor

[@midwestproductreviews7360]

Its not a video from Luke without rain, storms, snow, ice or all of them together. lol Nice video.

[@tronaswafford1041]

❤ I love the fact you show the good with the bad stuff whether it's gear or even just places y'all have traveled. Thanks for being real and true.

[@kulsaul]

Always the best! I have to have coffee ☕ and something to eat when I watch you Luke! Srength and honor ✊✊✊

[@braddishv3146]

I just love these episodes... I always have to come drop a like, but save the watch until later. It's become one of my weekly bed-time rituals! :-D

[@Oldtimecarpenter]

As always this is just another one of Luke’s fantastic videos! Thanks

[@melvoss7773]

Love that you go out in storms. Love to listen to them and watch the lightning. Idk what was making the noise on the way in, if you were doing an asmr thing re the gravel or if it was your backpack but gosh it was annoying. Really appreciated you mentioning the washes. I couldn’t pick one to save my life, so if you could go into really obvious detail that would be great. My father would just dig a big old ditch around the tent to direct the water away. Not sure if it’s a good or bad idea but he did it most every time (despite the fact we live where there’s not a whole lot of rain)

[@goldrace10]

Great Video Luke, When ever I see you have a new video, I get a cup of coffee and sit back and enjoy the video, I never seen a bad one !

[@sassylady2001]

I'll never know why or how you don't get lost hiking into your various campsites...especially across the fields with shoulder high grass, without trails or trees. I am looking forward to watching this video - but wanted to comment as it started. Gorgeous countryside. Great photography.

[@shishkebab5306]

Great video as always. With you on the cooler temps at night, sleep so much better.

[@RosrShafer]

Nice video Luke, thanks for all the work you do making them for us.

[@conniemoats8937]

Hello Luke, just love your videos. Keep up the good work. I just had hip surgery and can't go camping this year, so I enjoy your camping.

[@nathanroberts2047]

Like, one of your best in terms of editing and shot selection. Your confidence, just getting out there, is inspiring.

[@peterpiper487]

Luke, I think you're a storm chaser. Every time I watch your videos they take place during a storm. Exciting, but how do you find that many storms?

[@GDoggy-em2xc]

Yeah I think Luke should get into storm chasing. But it’s very dangerous and only for absolute experts in meteorology. Unfortunately.

[@kathybailey2953]

I am 65 and live camping. I live with my older sister and help take care of her. I have already decided that when my living arrangements have to change I will car camp full time. I wish I could meet someone with the same passion I have for camping.

[@meeeer3282]

Watching from the Philippines, I really enjoy watching your videos, take care always sir Luke!!

[@wingnut1690]

My friend I really appreciate you and your channel I just love the outdoors but since my wife became Not well I am her carer and have been for the last 14yrs it makes me smile to see you enjoying the out door life I hope you and your family are well you have a great bunch of subscribers

[@dougterhune9364]

Thank you for sharing this adventure with us! Glad you are still doing these and tell us your stories! I feel like a friend!

[@kevinschwinkendorf3202]

Fall is definitely my favorite season. Looking forward to ski season

[@juliestanley3614]

This video is one of my new favorites! Everything looks so crisp and clear! Beautiful! Absolutely stunning. And the way you show the clouds moving over the mountains, and of course all of the wonderful sounds of thunder and rain....{heavy sigh}...perfect! Thank you, so much, for making these videos.

[@sassylady2001]

Fall is coming here - central Alabama. We are in the 80's - from 81 to 89 days and mid 60s at night. FINALLY we can leave windows open at night and get cool air in the house. It's been such a hot summer for so many.

[@carolwelcome2882]

I really, really like your channel Luke. I appreciate so much your bravery, honest and knowledge.❤

[@Martin-x5c]

I am a viewer from Germany and since more than a year I appreciate your channel. It feels so thrilling when you are situated in severe thunderstorms but the way how you handle those situations is amazing. This is all combined with your explanations which sound comfortable and it takes me inside the adventure. Move on and make some more of these trips. By the way it would be nice to mention also degree Celsius and METERS (Kilometers)😊

[@tlembro]

If I drank that coffee I would be in the hospital! Great video!

[@zafiradaima]

Great video Luke! That coffee, I'd be awake all night. That bird sounded huge!

[@davidshingledecker1016]

Spent a week on the Benton-MacKaye trail in the GSM back in 2019. It rained and thunderstormed the entire hike with plenty of close call lightning strikes and a lot of trails turning into class one rapids. My 20 year old very used Coleman dome tent had two very small, very manageable leaks the whole trip. My camp mates didn't fare as well with their newly bought mid-end tents. I had a great trip as long as I was dry at the end of the day....thanks to Coleman and an old poncho left over from my military days!

[@rachelmurphy810]

Awesome images, most people never get to see such beautiful images if not for people like yourself!

[@violetraquelgarcia5143]

Thanks for sharing with us. Stay safe . Journey Mercies !!🙏💟

[@terrym1065]

Nice walk in camp Luke👍👍 Liking the changing weather there, it's refreshing to know there's cool weather somewhere. Being of decent quality I expected the MountainSmith tent to perform, it looks good too. Incredible shots of the skies, mountains and mist. Great video and filming, well done thanks. Camp weather incoming, get ready for cool fun.

[@brendablackington8299]

Omg, you can literally hear the sound of it's wings!! So cool!!

[@1robdavidson]

I forgot to comment on your last video about how much I appreciate your efforts in editing these videos, makes it feel almost like we’re there with you. Also the sound quality is amazing. Great job as always Luke. Take care and be safe. Ps- to Mike Wilson , keep fighting that evil cancer stuff buddy. You can beat it!!!!

[@johngalt6929]

16:27 - "Anything could happen!" LOL, more drama over some rain. That is some great theater there.

[@marybethmolnar4142]

Wildlife rehabilitator here. Most definitely a large raptor that you heard. I also agree it was an eagle, as you could here his wing beats and loft on the audio. Awesomeness!

[@rickzaleski4117]

Hey Luke, another great overnight camp. The eagle was a bonus! Let’s see if the winter predictions turn out to be true for our area. Looking forward to your first camp in the snow. Thank you for sharing. S&H…🇺🇸

[@JefferyHall-ct2tr]

Hi Luke!: GREAT Adventure! That tent looked pretty good! And the Alky stove was interesting!

[@toddpatik8834]

I have to tell you your tarp organization is awesome. I've learned a couple things about proper set up for conditions and options you have.

[@JanStewart590]

with all that I've learned from you and your channel Luke, I could go camping and know exactly what I'm doing and how to do it. I love your videos so much!

[@soniayoung7531]

Heyy Luke the views are beautiful ,the rain sounded so soothing on the tarp, I wouldn't be able to sleep I don't like lightning or thunder, and the little critters crawling around is a no ,stay safe out there

[@josephmartin1540]

Love the storms, the rain, the fog… the caves and rock overhangs.

[@JohnDoe-xm9ql]

This is great inspiration. Thanks Luke

[@00066784]

Hey Luke, I really admire your style of camping, precision packing, fastidious campsite, good show.

[@avabradshaw8008]

Oh goodie another exciting video....more enjoyment

[@angel19642001]

I like the cold weather And I like watching the Rain

[@rlwings]

I feel like I'm watching Storm Chaser. This guy really loves him some weather!

[@cherryrotella3714]

I enjoyed your company … thankyou 😊

[@lauralamkay1246]

Sweater weather is my favorite in fall 🍂🍁🍂🍁.

[@Shokwave8]

Wonderful video! So calming, thank you so much! If i may suggest one thing: I'd love if you could also implement the packing of your backpack in the morning. I for my part am still figuring out how to fit all the gear for a nice backpack-fit. I'd love to see your style out in the field.

[@melissaemery2365]

Excellent storm footage!

[@richlovin2173]

Luke, you consistently deliver very good, and useful videos.

[@auntiem75]

I love the camp site and oh that change to darkness! I love the mysterious forest. Keep up your great videos and adventures but be sure to keep safe. I am in my 70's and want to see you and Susie camping in your 70's. Auntiem 🌩⛈☔

[@Otis010707]

Luke, I LOVE the idea of bringing broken OF Pic coils with you to ward off skeeters! Fantastic idea! Bill Doyle from Upr Grnwd Lk, NJ

[@visnuexe]

Sweet video3d storm! Beautiful time to be out!

[@IceDaemon]

Thunder in the distance is so awesome to hear.

[@jrm255]

Hello from Ohio Love your videos keep them coming. Cheers.

[@randomadventures2.0]

Hey Luke I am always very impressed with your camera work and editing! As a fellow creator I greatly appreciate all the work you put into the production of your adventures! Much Love Brother!

[@PabloP169]

Some great storm photography in this outing.

[@stephen5224]

Another awesome video! Thanks Luke.

[@rinapike3838]

Thank you for all that you do. Love your videos. I can’t wait for hoodie weather. I live in El Paso Texas and it’s still so hot

[@Evanpsk]

This is great! love your videos man!!!

[@joemichaels4231]

You put a LOT of camera work into your videos! Awesome as always!!!

[@terryrichards8645]

I was walking to my Deerstand in the dark. When I scared several turkeys out of the trees. That is what it sounded like !They are huge they look like B-52‘s going down the fire lane.😊

[@seanryan1675]

Thanks for all the hard work done to produce this content! Let's get a Firebox Stove review!

[@williamwright82164]

Hope that this finds you in good health! May I suggest instead of tying your guy line to a rock, as high winds will pull it free from the rock. If you tie it to a stick then place one or more rocks on the stick, it will be much more stable.

[@TaiaJunis]

I enjoy watching your videos Thank you for another great adventure!

[@joannconfer1144]

I always enjoy going along with you. I love the sound of the rain…. You take care. See you soon.

[@oakdew]

New microphone, or new settings? I can't remember your walks being so squeaky. Wonderful adventure, and it was great to hear the flies buzz around. Thanks for the adventure. I love that you talk when you have something to say, you don't talk for the sake of talking. Perfect balance.

[@catscollectiblesandmore]

Wonderful storm clouds lightening mountain views.

[@craighoeme4845]

Awesome video buddy. Looks like a fun trip into the woods and some solitude. I hope to get some of that soon. Always interesting and informing, love your adventure vids and reviews.

[@Email988]

Fall season with Korean or Italian food is a great combo.

[@crazychris7417]

Loved the intro and leading into your gear review logo at the beginning with the rain drops coming down it. Little subtle things like that really makes the video to me!

[@normamurray4450]

I absolutely love your videos and I'm certainly on the same page in so many ways, especially Sweater Weather!!!

[@suezaple4950]

Awesome videography Luke & yup that was a big bird of whatever lol, love watching the variouse ways you set up your tarps , also enjoy when you test products. and appreciate the effort you put in to film these , you should be a storm chaser . I only wish I could get those meals here in Ontario, even looked up the USA and couldnt find one to ship. are fall weather in ontario is 12 and 14 celcius Burr. always love a good storm camp adventure nice to hear the tent hasnt leaked as yest. Ontario, Canada .

[@Addy-ft4ps]

[@topflightlawncarelandscape316]

You are great at this video thing, thank you for your time and you are appreciated.

[@renalevere6565]

I love your channel. Looking forward to your hikes with Susie and your winter camping and gear testing. Have you ever thought about giving camping tours with small groups joining you. That will be nice, but I understand you don’t like being around a lot of people. I’m an introvert, but I would pay to camp with you and Susie. You Guys are wonderful. Also, have you ever thought about hiking in Medicine Bow, Wyoming. That would be nice. Thank you for sharing🐞👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🐞

[@WeThePeopleSurvival69]

[@SLickev92]

From Charlotte North Carolina, hey LUKE !

[@ArtofHunter]

I camp at that exact spot most times I'm there. It's a beautiful place. Their is a gate at the bottom of the road but I've never seen it shut even when I've went up in winter time.

[@davespoemsandsongs9497]

Luke hiking out be safe my friend and take early talk to you soon, see you on the next Adventure my friend

[@dasreich8307]

I like the fact that you use rocks and tree roots to tie off your guy lines.

[@ReRe-wd5sz]

I just LOVE watching your videos! That eagle had it’s eye on you. 😉 I love thunderstorms when I camp, just they aren’t too severe and the wind isn’t too bad. Fall is my favorite season. 🍁🍂

[@richard_n]

I absolutely loved the shots you got of the lightning.

[@Peter-gv2gn]

Great video Luke as ever, when the snow comes I will looking forward to the videos then, thanks for the few years of videos , as an older person in the UK I appreciate it,thanks from Liverpool, Peter.

[@eddiegross3679]

Keep up the good work brother

[@rozbehkr5611]

Greetings from Iran, Luke. I always enjoy watching your adventures.

[@lindawoods6841]

Awesome rain camping,, we got rain and storms too.. We sure needed the rain here in Oklahoma... thank you so much for sharing.

[@johngalt6929]

!2:42 - LOL, Watching Luke getting all serious and dramatic and stuff over one rumble of thunder is still pretty funny. I have to laugh every time at how seriously he suddenly starts acting. It's like someone threw a drama switch.

[@mawmawvee]

The audio did indeed picked up the sound of the wings and the bird sounded BIG! The heliport base my husband used to fly to the Gulf of Mexico for an oil company would often have eagles flying around it and sometimes, they would be on the ground on the heliport. Mike said they're huge birds! They got to see them up close. He would also see coyotes, who would be skulking around the helipads. Oh, and lots of rabbits. Both the Eagles and the coyotes, would hunt the rabbits. In the mornings the pilot would have to go out to the helipad and make sure it was clear of critters. Be careful, now, that could be a Pteradactyl! I went and watched some of Vee's videos. You were right--He's really cool.

[@janetburrows137]

The bird did sound big. I have too say. WOW. 😮😅😊❤
