[@floydvaughn836]

Surplus? Arc'teryx, Fallraven whatever? AMAZON? I like y'all and all, but...get your butt down to the crazy store, dude.

[@agolftwittler1223]

For the dryest firewood, find a small and still standing dead tree. Firewood on the root so to speak, it never fails. Love your vids, see you next time.

[@jodooxq]

Luke, is there a reason why you use the Esbit alcohol burner and not the original Trangia with the Swedish stove? Just curious.... The Trangia burner is admittedly heavy and I have wanted to find something lighter myself. But it is hard to find one that is as good.

[@coldwarror7623]

This could be a whole new segment: “Mystery MRE of the Month”

[@Jaspurrsmum]

I was just thinking that. And I even said "it's a mystery" lol

[@Brettmlyons]

Yes please!

[@Brettmlyons]

I recommend Norwegian cold weather...

[@JAEUFM]

Guess the MRE for the viewers, just from him listing the contents, figure out what nation and branch of the military it is for?

[@Mr_Nobody913]

I’ve always been curious about other countries MREs so I’d watch that for sure.

[@JohnAlot]

The Korean meal says: beef with rice; pound cake; spicy Kim chi; seasoned sausage; meat loaf; chocolate? At least I got something out of my marriage to a Korean.

[@saltychocolate2843]

What about good food? Surely thats a big Plus right? c:

[@ManOnTheRange]

meat loaf? isnt that a fat singer :-)

[@tenhirankei]

Korean food in a Russian MRE type kit?

[@safromnc8616]

Military surplus - that's where I got started in Scouts w/my Dad's canteen, mess kit and army fatigue jacket over 50 years ago.

[@mariehammond934]

Praying Susie is ok. She’s a real sweetheart.

[@uncleheavy6819]

The cabbage dish is probably Kimchi. It's pretty much the Korean national dish. Spicy, too.

[@masonmp1889]

no probably gawumki its a eastern european cabbage roll

[@hypo345]

Kimchi, very good for you.

[@douglasreeves9938]

My thoughts as well.

[@Isheian]

There’s like 30 different types of kimchi ranging from spicy to kinda sweet.

[@jimsechrengost4673]

I think with the terrain the way it is and the closeness of the trees a hammock would be a more viable option.

[@Barbara-ex7yy]

I just love that forest. It looks so magical.

[@jimmer1047]

The "Shire" from a Hobbit movie?!?! Right? Lololol

[@earndoggy]

It does!! I was thinking "haunted forest".

[@JD-hp8qn]

My preference is military surplus and I am particularly like it when you sprinkle a little be of history into your trips.👍

[@thespelean]

Brought back fond(?) memories of 10 days on Russian camp chow during the “Soviet-American Snezhnaya Cave Expedition “ 30 some years ago….oatmeal, barley or dehydrated potatoes rehydrated in chicken broth

[@Steakslim]

After seeing Luke start pouring the contents of that Korean MRE into the bowl, I'm pretty sure he was farting blood that night.

[@jakeski3142]

I laughed way too hard at this.

[@jordanralph9540]

I remember being stationed in Korea, anytime we’d train with the ROK soldiers we’d compare MRE’s. The South Korean MREs were always better than ours, we’d try trading every time. Korean rice and beef always seemed way better than the American imitation beef rib patty thing 😂

[@floydvaughn836]

That's the McRib, it's pork, and it's great.

[@claytons5092]

Loved the rib meat MRE.

[@tymontet8256]

I really enjoyed the "mystery" lunch, you should do more of those.

[@DrsharpRothstein]

Knowing my luck if I tried one of those the translation would read - Emergency extra strength enema kit.

[@UAHFAN]

Hah, when you struggled with the Russian, it brought back memories! I moved to Russia in 2013 due to my job, and when I first came, I was completely lost with the language. Of course, now I speak it quite well, but the first months in Russia were a real eye-opener for this Alabama guy ;)

[@aliceg9571]

Hi Luke. I really enjoy the military surplus adventures. Actually, they’re all great. Looking forward to the winter overnighters. Hope everyone is doing great and staying safe. Thanks for all your hard work. It’s appreciated so much. It’s about to rain where I am and I know that’s another of you’re favorite kinds of trips. ATB to you and Susie

[@harplingebo]

The swedish stove is called "snusk-burk" (filthy jar) in sweden. I have one that my father used when he was in the army, works great!

[@Rileysworld727]

I love the idea of a tarp and a net tent instead of a regular tent for summer camping. You get the best of both worlds of tent camping to keep out bugs and tarp camping to keep off rain. Plus you stay much cooler in the summer heat

[@AllTheGoodNamesGoneReally]

The Korean vegetables look like Khimchie.

[@bjornstefansson2618]

The Swedish mess can is generally call'd "Snuskburk for those that served in Swedish military, in English that would be somthing like "dirtcan", it's becuse it's not easy to clean... And Luke change your "Lapplander" saw for a "Silky" saw...you wont regret it...

[@janblom1174]

Yeah! Got the impression that it was called "snuskburken" because during my winter drills, some of the food would freeze to the bottom of the mess tin. When you put new hot food in, it would thaw all previous meals from a couple of days back. Interesting....😅

[@Harry-Giles]

Loved it Luke. Thoroughly entertaining and informative. Enjoyed the discussion of the history of the area as well.

[@GH-cp9wc]

Wishing the best outcome for Suzie! Love the videos!

[@kellyms7230]

Absolutely loving the new(?) camera! The picture quality is phenomenal. Watching this on my tv, it looks like I'm watching through a window I would love to that place in person one day. Great vlog.

[@samuelsiedschlag4486]

Always good for an adventure with Luke. Loved the short history lesson...

[@lindawoods6841]

Oh cool loving this trip,, I am sitting back and enjoying.. thank you Luke for sharing.

[@drc1883]

Great one, Luke. Very interesting mountain stories. Can't beat oral history.

[@joeykerr5517]

Great video! That food looked really good! I wish I could find a spot like that where I live. Give Susie our love and I hope she gets back to 💯 soon!

[@Adventures_with_Sog]

That moss looks like sphagnum moss to me.

[@BobRennierSEMO]

Agree it’s sphagnum moss.

[@outandaboutwithdon656]

Wishing the best for Suzie , sending lots of prayers.

[@DrDennis]

Excellent videography Luke. Put it together better than usual.

[@suezaple4950]

awesome video Luke , wishing Susie all the best, Beautiful Moss filled forested area to camp out loved that. meals sure looked good as well.

[@markhowlett8070]

Outstanding video. Wow so clear and the colours are so sharp. Thank you.

[@Ian..]

You really captured the atmosphere of that forest Luke. Colours are amazing! Hope Susie is OK. 🙏

[@salliemorrill2671]

Prayers for Suzie, 1st off. 2nd, thank your daughter for serving. 3rd, awesome vid! Great info/history, love military hauls, absolutely beautiful & breathtaking location, & great camera quality.

[@tomrounds]

Thanks for a great video Luke. I did laugh at your wrestle with the chilli sausages. Keep up the good work.

[@Will-Parr]

An excellent adventure Luke. Very well presented. Get well soon Susie.

[@sabrinaarthur9125]

Another great video Luke, my favorite channel to watch, good luck about Susie condition, wish you guys all the best

[@paulmilsaps4476]

Another great video Luke. Always good to hear any news about Maddie and how she is doing. Please let her know that she has my respect. Will be praying for Susie that everything turns out to be nothing serious.

[@gregpohl412]

Wow! What a beautiful landscape!!!

[@sandrabarnett5346]

Excellent video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 This was a Unit Nations camping gear trip. The oral history about area from the peoples' perspective was the icing on the cake👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@tonyupham2340]

Wicked scenery, thanks for showing us the green forest

[@KimberlyGreen]

Would a hammock would have been a good option, since the ground was so jumbled? Also, I love moss cover like that. Mother Nature's green shag carpet.

[@KimberlyGreen]

@@bucky716 Sure, but generically speaking it looks like a nice place for a hammock. Lots of trees to select from & gets you off the uneven ground.

[@nm-ge4tb]

👍👍 the oatmeal might have had buckwheat in with it

[@tony7106]

Luke my man! Always an encouragement seeing you out in the woods brother! Best wishes to Susie, hope the rash turns out to be ok. Keep us informed if you would. Best wishes to the kids. You two raised them right man! Be proud very proud. From my house to yours much respect!

[@Mr_Nobody913]

This really made me reminisce about my field days as an Infantryman. This was fantastic. That Forrest is amazing. A sea of green. So peaceful. I also loved the brief history lessons about the place you’re camping in.

[@johningle8439]

Another good adventure. Prayers for Susie.

[@sassylady2001]

Gorgeous p hotography and beautiful area. How lush. Enjoyed this trip with you so much.

[@o1420]

What a beautiful area. Very nice video too:) sorry to hear about Suzie. Positive thoughts to all👍

[@Smokdeel]

Another great video.Thanks!

[@THESHAODOWCAMPER]

Great video and what a beautiful place to spend a night.

[@1cleblanc]

I have two kids serving now. Weird times. But very proud they serve our country. Thank you and yours!!

[@davidsawmandave8731]

Praying that Susie will be ok , I love the sound of that S Korean mre as I LOVE spicy hot foods, great adventure, love love that u brought back the military surplus adventure Luke

[@bobesselstyn461]

[@jstep100]

Awesome looking woods. Thanks for the video sir

[@susiehamm216]

GREAT VIDEO!! Tell Susie Love and Hugs and Susie wishes her the best!🥰

[@brnrecluse2946]

Great video as usual, Luke. Hope Susie is OK. Strength & honor.

[@papajeff5486]

Thanks for sharing your adventure. Hope all is well with Susie. Texas

[@brianmoser260]

Love the video fill with a lot of information and history

[@ellaayoma]

Really great video, as always!

[@cosmiqshy8941]

I remember that soft, cushy, cool & colorful moss under my bare feet as a little girl growing up in SE TX. My favorite thing about the woods there yet. 💜

[@phillean]

Really enjoyed this, the environment, the history and the food exploration. Some good camping gear too.

[@christopherwright4271]

Hey Luke those MRE'S looked amazing. I thought that was an awesome load out for your adventure.

[@chevelless7261]

Great video and overnight adventure...freedom for all people....

[@foxcm2000]

The only thing better than Luke's presentation is that perfect depth of field while he sits on the log!

[@snoxander6333]

Cool forest, thanks for sharing 🏕

[@cheezus4772]

Its nice to be able to enjoy the look of that beautiful location form the bug-free comfort of my couch.

[@twatsack]

Stunning location! 14:12 the contents of the spoon looks the same as what's on the ground lol.

[@dreamstate207]

Luke, how much water did you carry in with you? I have the same Swedish canteen but it's not enough water for drinking and cooking. I bought that Swedish stove. 41 bucks on Esty with free shipping. I now have 4 backpacking stoves.🙄

[@ferebeefamily]

Thank you for the video.

[@alexanderweaver7066]

My favorite of your camping adventures are the military surplus ones...awesome! Praying Susie is okay and not afflicted with Lyme disease.

[@jeffrichards5106]

Hey Luke, great location, gear and video. Thanks. Hope Suzie is going to be ok. Best wishes.

[@utubeaccess7]

Another great vid! I have about 3acres of Eastern White pine forest like that, on my property just on the other side of the Blue Ridge in TN. No moss, but full of ferns, chipmunk, groundhogs, turkey and deer. Cheers!

[@andrewaustin6369]

Nice relaxing video mate, hope Susie gets the all clear and it's nothing more then a bite.

[@jimsoltner8978]

Great video! I loved the MRE surprise meal. Howdy from South Jersey.

[@gunnyd2008]

Next time you take a Russian meal out send me a picture of it, my wife reads and speaks Russian fluently, maybe no surprises that way. 🤣🤣🤣

[@belligerentprisoner1959]

Please do more of these!!! Really enjoyed it!😃 mystery MREs from around the world! 🤣 hope Suzie is ok.

[@endlesscamp22]

I am abit late, but that testing out of the food was supercool. Great episode, and really nice music at then end!

[@erikayak]

Lovely forrest and crisp footage!

[@ArielleViking]

Those MREs sure looked interesting. Great adventure, I hope Susie's ok. 💯❤👍

[@WildHuntRH]

Best of luck to Suzie. Lyme's kicked my behind, hope she fares better!

[@MegaOotje]

Thank you very much for adding the temperature in Celcius! I love the optimistic way you present your videos. :-)

[@DDFFFFDDFDFD]

Great bit of history!

[@patricelemay1190]

My god , it's wall to wall moss carpet , the colors are so vibrant , beautiful ! ☝😁💚

[@jerrydutra3225]

I love it when the forest is covered in moss 👍👍

[@DomTheHawKdaMiaN]

Great video :)

[@cg_coyote]

That moss covered forest is absolutely gorgeous

[@ajb27]

The cabbage is probably kimchi. Love your channel!

[@kevintooley7434]

Hope Susie is ok. I love the surplus vids. The camera was absolutely clear. Great job Luke.

[@hidden4003]

[@donpfister6089]

Darncouple things I was interested in, tent and tarp, didn't have links. Oh well: a searching I will go. Great video, enjoyed it. Interesting MREs. Hope your wife is ok. Best wishes.

[@shrimpsoutdoors9088]

Very nice video! 👌

[@zephyrus7258]

That place looks awesome. Looked like walking on a memory foam pillow the whole time. I bet it can be hard on the ankles though.

[@ericacanapp9211]

Prayers for susie!! Great adventure!!! Hike on!!! ✅✅✅👍🏻👍🏻🙌🙌🙌

[@tradmanmike3360]

ANOTHER GREAT ADVENTURE! OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND SUZY. MAY GOD'S HEALING BE WITH HER.

[@earlshaner4441]

Hi from Syracuse my brother and thank you for sharing your thoughts and adventures and your family brother

[@CampfireExploring]

Great video as always. Keep up the great work. Another Scotch Irish viewer from the southern terminus of the Appalachian mtns.

[@wayneanderws7087]

Great video my friend bless on your family

[@TJRohyans]

I don't get to camp near as much as I'd like to, so I really enjoy tagging along with you. I grew up in the Scouts and popup camper camping with my family, but usually in improved campgrounds and Indiana State Parks. One of the best experiences I ever had though was going through Survival School in the USAF in the Spring of 95 for 6 days in the mountains near Spokane, WA. Your survival knowledge always reminds me of that experience. I pray Suzie is well. Peace and love.
