One of my close friends from high school died trying to solo summit a mountain (Mt. Baldy). He had just gotten accepted into MIT and had his whole life in front of him. So I've never had the guts to solo hike and summit a mountain myself. But thanks to people like you who film and share their amazing experiences doing it, I still get to see what it's like. What an unreal video.

[@Levi_Allen]

Solo experiences in complex terrain have an incredibly high risk factor. Sorry for the loss of your friend! If you still want to give it a go I’d recommend finding a local area that you are familiar with, the terrain is what could be defined as “simple” and obviously taking a friend is always a good call too : )

[@kathmandoo]

You can do incredible things if you are motivated enough. I was 60 yrs of age when I trekked to over 5,000 meters to Everest base camp. I went back 3 more times to treck other parts of these spiritual mountains. Nepal is a fantastic country with wonderful people.

[@BrokeOverLand]

Good stuff, Challenge makes us grow. Side note: I’ve found boiling some water with the jet boil and filling a Nalgene bottle, then stuffing the Nalgene in the bottom of your sleeping bag, helps keep your feet warm and provides water to drink in the morning. When everything else is frozen :)

[@Sillisify]

One of the reasons i love Nalgene bottles, handles the heat so well. Also, putting a plastic bag over your feets before you head out, specially when it's colder outside. This is to hold in the moisture, so it doesn't freeze your toes before you get to camp

Thanks for this. Mt Cheam was the one that got away. I lived in Chilliwack for two summers decades ago when I was your age. I hiked everywhere I could.... but Mt. Cheam never happened for all the reasons you mentioned. I am now a 50 year old disabled person who can only walk 10 minutes at a go . I am so grateful I got to the top of every mountain I could and hiked like crazy with my kids when they were young. Visibility at the top is nice - but not essential. My three best hikes with no view from the top were; The Twin Sister (Vancouver), Snowdon (Wales), Croagh Patrick (Ireland), and somehow they are even more special because they retain some mystery and kept some secrets from me :-). I actually started to cry when I saw this video because....you gave me a chance to get to the top. If only as a witness. Keep pushing yourself. My suggestions for a long cold night in a tent by yourself are knitting and tarot cards. Both are light and can be fast or take a long time. May you have many more peaks alone and even more with the best of those in your world.

[@CreatedByNoriElan]

Wonderful message. I'm so glad you have those. Some memories, such as those you've mentioned are vital and very heartwarming! Be safe.

[@hanknmosul]

I did two years in the infantry in Alaska, and something i always did (I was taught to do) was put your boots inside your sleeping bag, down by your feet. It's a little uncomfortable at first, but after your body heat warms them, it evaporates any moisture inside them, and they are warm and dry when you put them on in the morning. Then you can do the whole next day with dry comfortable boots. Also, if you have to work with numb hands or feet, I've found you will be paying the price as you age. Hands and feet will get cold (and numb) easier and you then have to compensate and get warm earlier than before, to be functional. I wouldn't change anything though. The inchworms in Alaska tundra make the evening interesting..the mosquitos, not a fun thing. The tundra makes excellent mattresses/pillows. Keep a buddy between you and the Brown bears.

Living in Oklahoma, it's never about cold or snow. It's all about the wind. I once did some summer camping out by Canton Lake. I stayed in a campsite behind the dam. The campsites were full of tall trees that stuck above the height of the dam and the rustling of the leaves would keep you awake all night long even though there was no wind at your level. I tried a little biking while I was there but it was hard as you had to lean at nearly a 45 in order not to fall over.

[@drewsimms]

What a send man! Wind looked brutal haha.

Ah cheers homie. I was just recommended some of your vids a month or two ago. Good shit! keep it up.

[@jurajkotian1]

​@@Levi_Allen Do I see correctly (in minute 23:00) that you used UberLite sleeping pad ONLY? That has been very hazardous for the snowy conditions as it provides very low R value (even for autumn season) and deflates in low temperatures. You should definitely upgrade for a proper winter sleeping pad or combined your UberLite with closed-cells foam pad.

I felt and thought exactly the same

[@Levi_Allen]

[@chasinggeckos8843]

Great lessons learned. Never ever put liquids ( fuel or beverage) inside a backpack. Store on outside. Get a 4 season tent, the mesh on the top let’s heat out and snow in. Also gives the wind an opportunity to get in. Annnnnd. Don’t use that tent ever again in the warmer month’s until you get the bacon smell out. Bears will think you are a burrito. Take it for what it’s worth, I just have lots of nights in tents on sides of mountains. Also. Tent comes down, stay where ya are until daylight. Broken ankle in the dark is not cool. Cheers mate

[@rob4n12]

[@99959bill]

I like listening to shortwave radio from around the world.... Its not an active activity but how much activity can you do in a tent and storm..... I find it a great activity for the mind,, listening, scrolling the many stations listening to music and talk from around the world.... If you do decide to listen to shortwave you have to be patient,,, not all stations are on all day like regular radio,,, maybe a station guide book so you know the frequencies and times and after you get used to it all, you wont need the book, you'll know how to hunt and scroll the dial,,,,, just an idea.... Reading and listening is just too cool because every few seconds you are learning something you never knew before and will probably never like run into by accident in life, so you would have never learned that thing !!!! Oh yeah, if you do this, its best to get a very good quality radio 1st time, the less expensive radios don't really work so good but a good one can pull in stations like regular radio in the truck...... Stay Safe... (Grundig, Kenwood, Yaesu, Icom, Alinco ,,,,, all excellent radios,,,, And a long piece of wire for the antenna - 50 feet #18 wire will work fine !!!!) I don't why I went into all this - maybe because I like doing this in bad weather,,,, not all people do.... LOL )

What people don't think about some times watching these is how he leaves a camera and walks away from it multiple times to give a vibe of just simply walking on a cool tature trail but ..... he has to walk back and pick it up. 🤣🤣 I would go bananas but hey it's for the viewers 🙂

[@outabeat]

I'm not one to critique other people doing adventurous things. But given the chosen camp area makes a fire impossible, I think you need a lightweight stove or heat source to help warm up the inside of the tent, and if nothing else, to help dry equipment. Having an ability to dry wet boots is a huge morale booster. And a light stove/heater expands cooking abilities. Always take good care of your feet!!!

[@Levi_Allen]

you can't really "warm up the air" inside of a normal tent. You need a hot tent for that. And there is no world I am carrying a hot tent solo to the summit of a mountain.

I remember hiking a 3400m tall summit with my high school friends. It was absolute misery with unforecasted storm rolling in. Freezing our balls from the cold and the wind. Numbing my whole left leg to the point touching it feels painful. It was worth the experience doing hike and pushing myself. But as i got older and finally not having enough time to hike again, watching your video tingled my memory. Great work man, you motivated me to at least make time to hike again, hopefully soon!

[@lanecountybigfooters5716]

What an adventure! Truly beautiful area. Thank you for outlining your safety precautions - the only thing better than getting out there in nature and enjoying it, is coming home safely. Great philosophy of living, too! Best wishes to you and yours. Looking forward to seeing your other vids. Subbed.

[@exov646]

This is just what i needed after a stressfull day

[@jamiesmith4293]

Get a tarp that's big enough to fit under the entire tent, wrap around the back to the top, and down the front. Spray adhesive space blanket material to one side of the tarp. Use a rope if needed though the grommets to hold it closed. Keep the bottom front of the door open for air if needed. The wind will beat on the much-stronger tarp, it'll trap in warm air, and reflect heat back to you. While sleeping, I've seen it 10 degrees warmer in the tent, while sitting up and packing, it'll be 30 degrees warmer. When you open the door to get out, you'll feel a frozen wave of air pour in and fill your tent. So make the tent be the last thing to pack, and the tarp folds up and goes on the outside of the tent so it'll be the first thing to unpack and lay out the next night.

[@pedrocconti]

the amount of work that most go into this, like getting all those different camera angles on the climb up is insane. Love the dedication and it makes the video that much better. Awesome work

[@phillipwithstyle]

Every new hiking cut on the way up, I kept thinking about all the retracing of steps to retrieve the camera. Kudos to making this video look so good! Also I loved the honesty of all the mistakes along the way. I love to travel and I make a lot of mistakes along the way. Made me feel connected knowing I’m not alone in that.

[@phaarqueue4876]

I am still stunned you camped in a tent so exposed with just a little brick enclosure to shelter on the summit of a mountain....in the dark.....without your electric blankie....just you and your Maunga(mountain). In our culture we believe that every person is born connected intricately to a mountain, a river, or ocean. It is our ancestry. You camping must make you feel so connected. I love and admire the respect you show our home, mother earth. Jah bless Levi !!!

[@rjstewart]

Awesome video! One small suggestion, your satellite device hanging on the roof of your tent could be a bad idea. If the tent blew off the mountain you’d be stranded without it. More realistically the battery would probably be happier if you kept it in the sleeping bag with you! :-)

You said in in the video that one of your big goals in making videos is to get people to get outside more and I want you to know you are 100% accomplishing that. Before the video was over, I found myself starting to brainstorm and dream about the ways I’d like to be outside more and push the limits of my comfort zone more.

I'd probably sleep better in that situation, but i would definitely be worried about the tent if i have doubt I believe that was his main concern. If i believe in my tent my strong foundation that I'd be a sweet night for me. Sometimes you gotta let nature take over and embrace it, concern isn't gonna do a thing but to burden your brain. Take a deep breath,

Climbing a mountain pushes your limits and it tests you. It is important and valuable

[@ysonline]

When you're willing to go out and enjoy nature. Remember it's never you against nature. It's you being prepared for what nature can do and if you don't respect it then you shouldn't leave the house, nature always wins. Think of it as going to school, the lazy people don't want to be there, the ones who do are likely prepared to learn and if you respect your teachers to teach you then you'll enjoy learning. And when you're out in nature and you respect it then you'll always learn something and enjoy doing so.

[@realerthanmostg6718]

[@theexplodinggrape8009]

I smiled a few times while watching this. People need to try finding time just to enjoy the outdoors. I can see you really enjoy being there.

You just showed us "Life is beautiful" Thankyou

I had to pause this in 1:40. I moved to BC from Ottawa about 5 years ago. At one point during my journey I stayed in aggasiz for quite some time. With this mountain in my plain view and a stones throw away almost. It became my favourite mountain during my 2 and some year stay and modern memory of my travels there after living there for a bit as a child. I can’t wait to watch the rest of this video.

Very atmospheric video. Good shooting and video editing. Incredibly beautiful location. Good channel!

[@liamr-f2881]

Awesome video Levi! Although that looked like a pretty rough night up on the summit, this gets me stoked to explore the alpine. This winter I want to learn downhill skiing and eventually do touring in the backcountry… gotta make it happen!

[@Jadensound]

[@shayes.x]

Levi, these videos are beautifully crafted! It is truly a dream of mine to be able to snow camp one day, quite inspiring to watch you do it!

[@marquisethomas5611]

Walking off to get the shot & then walking back to get the camera in wet moto boots is why this has soo many views , mans put the work in to give us quality content Edit: then he went back to bike to get his actual hiking shoes 👏🏾

I love hiking, and by that I mean watching people do it from my cozy bed

[@nikikovacs1923]

Confession : I love watching these bushcraft winter camping videos where guys barely survive the freezing cold. And then I'm off crawling into my warm bed in my overheated apartment and drift away into sleep almost instantly.

[@dylankissel3301]

Really liking these adventures!! Getting back in shape so I can do trips like this

[@DarnNative]

I imagine it sucks to set your camera up walk 100 yards then turn back to get it

[@raisr6528]

I admire your experience you keep your smile even when you are in serious uncomfortable troubles

[@girishshinde005]

When camping isn't just abou making food... It's about exploring the surrounding... Loving this channel

[@Jafar_editz]

Cab you collaborate with 0utdoor boys ?

[@rickwhitson2804]

Bro I'm 61 years old now and I still love to get outdoors. Going to MT Mitchell in the middle of winter is a rush. It's in N.C.

[@Dark_Angel-dc8lz]

Just knowing that you had to come back to get camara after walking away is funny ash

[@MrPotatoes00047]

It must be relaxing when you finally get your tent up and can relax a bit

[@SWIPERPlays]

Man, that wind tho 😮😮 it's so strong
