I'm A 70 year old former navy woman. I was blessed to grow up near mount Rainer national park. Talkin 6 miles outside. I did A lot of camping. I married A man who also was an outdoors person we did A lot of camping, fishing and hunting raised two fine sons and as they grew up we took up black powder guns and mountain man skills and renzevoues, bought a teepee and never looked back

[@rubenalejandrobravoflores5372]

you're the only guy i know of that sets up camp and leaves because the weather wasnt bad enough haha love it take care luke

[@carlpaladino427]

Right, I also doubt many people would consider a mild winter Lame. That is why we all enjoy Luke and his attempt to push the limits adventures.

[@Jamiescottsmith]

No, he left because the weather was worse. That and he planned very poorly setting up camp without a nearby water source and relying on it to maybe snow for water. Definitely not best practices. I love Luke and this channel but not his finest hour imo.

[@sherryh7485]

Owl to Luke: GET OUTTA MY YARD!

[@PaulC001]

16:19 owls owls like to follow you through the woods while walking at dusk and dawn. they do this not because they're interested in the person, but what you might scare up in the underbrush. i love watching them go from tree to tree watching the forest floor for mice snakes or whatever else might be there. when they see something they can grab they're super quick to snatch it up and head back to their favorite branch to eat.

[@PaulC001]

the call you were hearing is an owl trying to talk to another owl. probably their mate.

[@LazerR0cketB0mb]

Thanks for the knowledge! I love predatory birds and owls are one of my favorites. So mysterious.

Luke thanks 😊 🙏 for sharing the trip inspite of the disappointment of no snow you took with a slight blow to the chin no big deal, thought you and Susie was funny 😄 with the serious moves 🤣 😂 😆. It's nice to alway look forward to the out of the ordinary 😀 😄 👍 😊.

I love how this man runs towards winter storms!

[@user-he1fr3uo3c]

what winter storm?

[@MG-ze3lf]

And he is always close to his truck. So he really isn't major miles out in the wilderness.

[@israelcampos2662]

I personally don’t care that much about hiking camping and stuff, but watching this guy , what he goes through in order to be professional is cool and relaxing and obviously inspiring

[@jonesnin]

In Moncton, NB, Canada the big storm we had in the winter of 1992 dropped 5 1/2 feet of snow. Drifts completely covered houses. For weeks after, all the sidewalks were tunnels and store spray painted their names on the snow so people could find the stores.

[@papajeff5486]

Now, that’s a snow storm!!!

[@sj-art]

I swear the sound of a zipper on a tent is one of my favourite sounds. It just says relaxation and family time to me.

[@johnscottmills1414]

If I was stranded in the middle of nowhere,there’s no one who I would like to have with me is you Luke . I know that I would come out safe and sound ,say hello to Suzi from me , john from Sheffield in England Great Britain UK . I thoroughly enjoy watching your adventures great stuff my friend,and I look forward to seeing more of your videos,all the best mate

[@chelsealouise3137]

I love this, I always have thought the same. I am also in the UK well Scotland. I’m not even really an outdoors person at all, but I love watching Luke’s uploads. I love bad weather too, I always have thought wow if the apocalypse came I would absolutely be hunting down luke and family lol - he would be an amazing person to keep you safe in the wilderness.

[@jacquelinebarnett3439]

I’m also from the UK, Norfolk. Just love these videos, I feel like I’m on the Adventure to.

[@jacquelinebarnett3439]

When we lived in Colorado we were in Boulder, just at the foot of the mountains. My first couple of weeks there I struggled with the altitude and when we went up the mountains that was a whole different scenario. Living in the UK we are at sea level, Boulder is a mile above and then 10,000 feet up the mountain, phew. 😳

[@MegaSusanc]

Awesome as always Luke. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures. That's what I like about you your honesty and your seriousness but yet you're hilarious 😂 at the same time bahahaha, ya had me cracking up. 🤣 love y'alls dancing 💃 😆 🤣 😂 KEEP ADVENTURING GOD BLESS Y'ALL KEEP DANCING 🤗HUGS🤗

[@debbryant2402]

I love the owls hooting at us! They are the guardians of the woods and know everything

[@davespoemsandsongs9497]

Luke, nice to see you again, no snow what you want only got freezing rain but you had a good camping you were warm in your sleeping bag and you got a good night sleep

[@Gunny672]

Hahaha, that dance interlude was hilarious! I wonder if Suzie snuck it in there without Luke knowing? LMAO.

[@SSP50505]

I find quite amazing how all those different objects you were using during the camping fit in that backpack and, while no doubt it was heavy, you were easily able to walk from and to the vehicle with it. The joys of lightweight materials.

[@faithrada]

I call it the "Tardus" backpack. 😆

[@bazman2306]

We appreciate you just as much as you appreciate us, its a two way street, pretty much thats the way life way life goes, sometimes it's uphill, othertimes it's downhill. Thanks for all the advice you offer.

[@sadinasarvela4315]

I always enjoy reading your little messages at the end. I'm glad you got a few inches of snow. Love the dance moves 😂

[@jezzlynnnoparticularniche8019]

I love owls and to hear one hoot WOW!! That owl sounds right above you.

[@kemperkey5750]

I love to hear owls hoot a real treat my friend Thanks alot Luke.

[@HuskyHiker]

I found your channel right before the pandemic hit because I was ramping up my outside time and I found your gear reviews helpful. I also found them more informative and enjoyable to watch during the pandemic than the trash on TV. Thanks to you and your channel I've had several comfortable backcountry overnights.

[@foxhoundoutdoor8431]

The comments after the credits and the dancing at 47:01 are amazing haha thank you for everything you do for us viewers Luke, you're the man!

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

Yes, to hear that owl while you're camping is cool. It's another story when you hear it home and you have a few chickens that insist on roosting in a tree instead of the coop.

[@kinjiru731]

Man, hearing a tree or big limb crash down near your tent would be nerve-wracking.

[@IMDARKFIRE007]

Ohhhh I REMEMBER that storm....a foot of snow in MY state was absolutely unheard of. I lost power for like a week. Totally snowed in, only heat was from a gas powered oven with a cracked window, bathtub full of snow with frozen meat, milk eggs and other stuff jammed into a bathroom with no heat since the fridge was in the heated area. That storm had no name, but it will forever live in my memory as the blizzard of 93.

[@badlandsg215]

Best part of this video is the appreciation ❤ I LOVE IT and will continue to watch

[@toxicflowz4568]

what you did with the owl howling sound and the music is sooo damn tight ( meaning really good ) . i can't wait to see the storm lol. we had only 1 to 2 inch in where i live ... yeah wasn't exciting but , i thought of you when the storm was coming down . that was a couple of days ago .

[@lindahopson5003]

Hilarious ending! What a cold video to watch... glad you enjoy those wild camping trips so we can just watch from a warm home.

[@roklemnok]

I had our scouts up in the mountains presumably the same weekend near Panthertown. When we started to have trees and branches coming down we bugged out at 1AM, hiked a few miles back out, and ended up at a wafflehouse at 4 AM. Highlight of their weekend and I'm sure they talked about it all week with their friends. #BePrepared #AdaptOvercome

Thank you Luke and Suzie for being a friend to all of us people out here. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for not trying to sell us stuff. You understand how it can be. All your adventures make me so happy and I can't wait to go and have a safe adventure myself. Just wish I wasn't alone on that. Maybe could you or Suzie do a video for people who are solo all the time? Like what things would be safe for a solo person. And for a solo woman that wants to go out camping? I see Suzie do it but not sure I have as much knowledge as she does. Thanks in advance. Maybe she could do a video for us solo ladies.

Hi, Suzy and Luke! We have had weather hypothesis tell us we were gonna have snow, too. I live in Missouri. We had about an inch or 2 for Christmas. That was it! My rose bush is trying to green up. Too early. Disappointed! Boo...no snow! How is your little family? I hope you all are so blessed! Hope for snow um...let's see...next year?

[@sandollarj504]

You are so right Luke Ice storms are very dangerous. Here in East Texas 2 weeks ago we had a huge ice storm that weighed down the gigantic oak trees so heavily not only did their branches shatter like glass and they completely up rooted crashing down on cars homes etc.

[@azclaimjumper]

Big snow storms in North Carolina have been scarce this year. I recognized that Hilleberg Soulo as soon as you began to stake it out & assemble the 3 poles. You definitely have "shelter" you can depend on to keep you dry tonight, a tent thats going to stand up to most anything Mother Nature can throw at it. You couldn't have selected a better shelter for the wind/rain you are expecting. This is truly 5-Star accommodations out in the boonies. This is THE first time I've seen anyone pitch a Soulo & cover it with a tarp. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

In our part of Ky we have predicted snow, rain, severe weather that often never happens. Not complaining, have just learned to prepare for the worst and wait and see. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else though, lol. Enjoy your adventures, thanks for sharing :)

Love the owl!!! I sit on my porch & listen to doves. They sound so peaceful. Love nature!!

[@SFCRambo60]

Seeing you strike the wooded match made me relive my childhood. The old Farmers Matches with the white tips, my brother and I had an air pellet rifle and stuck the match down inside the rifle with tip going in last, gave it 3 pumps and shoot at trees, garage and concrete and the match would make a huge bang. I was at Cherry Point MCAS North Carolina in that storm of 1973. I counted at least 24 cars and trucks in the ditch on the way to Base. There was at least a half dozen Chevrolet Corvettes ( mostly Officers vehicles) in the ditch. My Squadron was the only Squadron to work and we used a RF-4B & EA-6A TO CLEAR THE SNOW SO WE COULD WORK. When they turned up the engines of those planes huge chuncks of snow flew out. It was a crazy day.

We had an ice storm in Michigan yesterday and all night. I'm surrounded by huge trees and now I have huge limbs on my garage, in my backyard, and one fell on my roof. Then today we have 50 degree weather and it was pouring in my yard without the rain. I've never seen anything like it!

[@hokudadog7637]

I like that you showed the reality of going out camping and being prepared for ANYTHING. I was worried at first when you just had the tent set up, and then sighed in relief when I saw your tarp. Freezing rain is the worst!

Love the owl calls. I've heard them when camping. Our community is heavily forested. It's a treat to sit on the deck and hear owls. Have you ever used some kind of rain collection to extend water supply?

[@jamescostello6529]

The Barred Owl, commonly called the Hoot Owl, is very common in our parts of the Carolinas. I have 2 nested pairs that are around our home and some mornings when I leave for work, 0515, they will be talking to each other. I can call them up and they will come to investigate the sound. They are very territorial and don't like hoots they don't know.

[@alexanderweaver7066]

Absolutely awesome adventure, Luke! It would behoove beginner to intermediate backpackers to watch your adventures as a learning tool. Your gear is first class..Love your outer shell and the color. Hilleberg's attention to detail in tent making never ceases to amaze me. The strap loops securing the poles and rain cover to the guy lines should be a feature on every tent with exoskeleton poles. Carrying a backup stove is crucial in cold weather camping. I van camp as a senior and still carry my military stove as a backup to two single burner Colemans. BTW the flashback was cool and hilarious! I look forward to Susie conquering the mountain pass in Colorado.
