If I look outside and I see a storm forming I know Luke is out camping in it, lol
I talk to the animals that wander in from the woods around my house, too.❤ I told a fat Tom turkey the other day that he'd better strut his stuff back in the woods because out here, he looked like my dinner. He looked at me with a side-eye & kept on strutting. He made me giggle...fun times for this old lady!
Luke, we had a storm two nights ago. Reminded me of you. It was weird, (just kidding) lasted about 45 seconds and stopped. It blew 3, 6 inch diameter, 15-20 feet long limbs, down in my yard. Snapped the whole tops off a sycamore and a poplar, both just more than a foot in diameter, landed on top of each other…good firewood. Been working two days to clear ‘em out of the yard, more to clear. Sheesh!!! Thanks for sharing your adventure…from East Tennessee.
I’m an old retired vet.. I park pointing out…my car, my pickup and my big bike…almost every time. I even sit pointing out in a restaurant.
I love drinking coffee watching Luke and friends...
Love hearing the rain!
I've been backpacking and car camping over 50 years. After covid I've noticed a huge increase in folks in the woods. The way things are today you just need to be prepared. I've never been bothered, but one never knows. The way you park your vehicle makes no difference. Your ability to protect yourself does. Just saying.
I love watching your videos Luke.
You get out into the woods and have so much 😊 fun even if it pours.. Be well ❤️🩹 both you and your family!!
Keep the stormy camp videos coming!!! They are my favorite
You have the best job in the world
Luke when will you do a video with your twin brother? I think that would great! You will have all the woodland creatures do a double take.
Great idea!
I saw the chilli infused olive oil…..what a great idea ! , I just ordered some 👍
As far as parking goes , I’m retired army motor sgt , I’d back in the parking spot, easier to load / unload and get out in a hurry, you can adjust your head position
Hey Luke. I hear the thunder. Deer are so nosey. We feed ours and the does have their fawns on the farm. Have been here for years. Well I’ll keep watching. I enjoy all your videos.
I absolutely LOVE heavy rain, especially in the Spring/Summer months. I'm sitting here watching the video and actually shivering as I can imagine the surroundings you're experiencing.
Good to hear that the North Face didn't leak. I looked on that tent and wondered if I should buy it. Now I know👍 thanks to you Luke 😀. Thanks for a great episode

I agree with the self defense plan. Running away is not always an option. That is why I have a sticker on my vehicle that says " Too fat to run will fight" ..lol Great video as always!
I'm in the same boat. a;ong with being to old to run.
Me too lol, I'm a five foot tall senior female, I'm not running anywhere. I'm like a raccoon, chubby, kinda small and cute but will fight like hell lmao!!
That skinny coffin looking tent gives me claustrophobia just looking at it!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge I enjoy your camping trips
Hi Luke sitting here having some breakfast and thought I'd come check out your latest video. I always thought how crucial it is that you keep up with the weather for the testing that you do and over the time spent watching your channel it's obvious how important your different tools and gadgets are. I recently bought a TOGR red t-shirt and I love perfect for summer.
Had a great time during the adventure, Luke! Plus the return of the Woody stove!
Races to set up camp before the rain and storms come but is too late...stops to film 3 point turn, pull in and all the functions to shut off and exit vehicle 😂. Love your videos Luke
I just got rid of my ARB 8' awning and awning room on my 4runner. Going to switch over to T4 Gazelle. Was using a tarp like yours over the back of the truck. Switched that over to the Kelty Highroads shelter...seems to offer more versatility and closed in more in case you need to use heat.
Thanks Luke, it looked like a good day out. Two weeks from now I will be camping and will try the steak sandwich. It did look amazing. I will send you pics of the new camper and site setup. Stay safe and God bless.
It´s kinda incredible how different the green from the tarp is compared to the green of the leafs around it but yet it blends in pretty ok for a single color tarp.
Good one Luke.
when im camping as you are in that area, i place a 20# mono fishing line around the area with the end of it has a air horn , when you trip the line it sounds the horn, about a full 1 min , before , so you know someone or an animal as tripped the air horn, i did this in yellowstone last year , because i was in an area where there plenty of gizzalies in the area, , i made the horns from a old bear spray can that people dont think to throw away,? a valve stem super glued in the top of the can, a noise maker from a party favor the can holes appox. 100psi of air, super glued to the open end, and a 20# mono fishing line around the whole area where im camping, bear comes in, trips the line the horn sounds for 10 sec, the bear run away never to come back, people get mad , but later are glad something is out there watching natural before it destories your camp site?
Thank you for all that you do to keep us informed. Especially the trouble you go to give us great camera angles. Most of all for the great reviews. Love your channel. Strength and honor.
Thank you for the nice informative video
parking facing out can help with getting out. Not meant for escaping bad guys, but depending upon terrain and weather, it can be easier to get going if you're pointed in the direction you'll want to go.
I appreciate you showing breaking everything down in the rain
👍 Keep up the great videos Luke, love these rain camping videos!
Luke , has anyone told you that you are the modern day cowboy ? Love your adventures
chili olive oil.......will have to try it
Thank you ❤❤❤
Love the unpacking part and nice vehicle too!
Your videos relax me after a hard day's work keep em rolling thank you Luke ❤
Beautiful Camping🥰🥰🥰
Thank You for each week, your adventures are great!
Looking forward to watching this before bed!
Well done, Luke!
Where you live must be the rainiest part of the country because like wow, I have never seen so much rain talked about in all my life.
Good info on using the dry bag for all the wet stuff!
Hi Luke as always it’s a pleasure to watch listen and learn from you stay safe and thank you
Luke I like how you tussle your equipment before going out in your tents you got to make sure those tents don't leak in a rainstorm thank you for your knowledge I like how you explain everything . When will you go on a camping trip with Susie
Thank you so much I have learned so much from you and Susie ❤
Cast iron pans are best, nearly indestructible & absolutely durable
Handling criticism with grace as usual. Well done. Keep em coming. Love the channels.
Really appreciated the reminder to get a skin check. Have had 14 burned off 1 cut out and 1 melanoma found so far. Have 3 more to get cut out and more burned off. The previous doctor (2 years ago) told me it wasn’t anything to worry about. Current doctor wasn’t fussed but I pressed and asked for it to be removed. Turned out to be melanoma. Trust your gut. I’ve got to get more of it cut out but aside from that idk what treatment will be. Even without that find, the new dr put me on a 3 monthly review. Go get your skin checked.
Great test Luke , And Your experience shows through , Cry bags are essential for wet gear , Keeps all other kit , and your Sack , or wheels , don't get soaked , So simple , yet so many do not know , or think to carry Drysack ! , Be Well my American Friend , Best wishes to you , Susie , and the Offspring , Strength , Honour and Respect From the UK .😊❤👍🙏
I roasted in a Kelty late start. On a hot rainy day with the door zipped shut it has zero air flow . Thank you for your work Luke : )
I replaced it with a Lanshan 2 : )
i can not wait to get me a 4runner like this!!
Luke that fawn was looking at u like.... 😒 WTF DUDE ur trespassing on my feeding time here bubba.... that was hilarious footage Luke .
Some thoughts on parking. Without 4wd, leave the driving wheels on the firmest ground if you can, If you have to force an exit, hit obstructions with the rear of your vehicle, it has fewer vulnerable bits. Love the videos, thank you.
I crack up when you share some of the “expert” advice people leave you in the comments that makes no sense and then they get upset when you clarify how silly their recommendations are. 😂
Love your 4Runner. Keeps me coming back!
Your videos always seem to calm me down somehow
Watching your adventures on my couch
as our weekend adventure (inspired by your adventures) that I was supposed to be on right now
was canceled due to an unruly cold I decided to catch instead 🙃
Stay safe and protected 🙏
That deer was the best part :)
Luke, The Bambi whisperer...
Exactly what I' thought 🤔
As always a very sensible video and good info
Hello from the Piedmont of NC. Nice weather the rain has stopped here.
That steak sandwich looks incredible!
Good tent testing weather that's for sure. Meal looked good, made fresh not dry re-hydrated. Glad the two higher end tents didn't leak. Thanks for the video and work. See ya soon.
As far as packing goes it is nice to be able to just grab your car keys hit the remote unlock have your headlights come on to illuminate whatever is out there
The sliding rear tray makes a REALLY nice seat. If you didn't get it from factory I hear it's a pain to install later, but it's worth it.
Good stuff
Never seen anyone boil water in a kettle for a brew, without putting the lid back on!
Some people just like to argue 😮
I love all your videos. Can we get some more camping trips with some hilleberg tents?
I do use trip alarms if I’m in a place where people shouldn’t be, it’s mostly so animals don’t sneak up on me but Donny….. a lot of us campers and hikers carry pew pews, take more than a couple kids out goofing of to worry us
It was if that deer was saying to itself "that guy looks very familiar". lol
Right after your conversation with the “brave deer,” you grabbed the bag with your camping table. I genuinely thought you were about to dispatch the deer with a shotgun. 😂 Thanks for keeping me entertained.
When Luke gets older he's gonna look like a prune with all the rain he's been in . Lol. Forgive me. That's my dark sense of humor. Love Luke man. He's the best
Like tarp over vehicle something we can do thank you have a great day
@10:31 three packets went into the tumbler, looked delicious, I'd love to try it but it's not in the description, wink-wink. Sorry if I missed something. Keep up the great work sir, these videos are not only informative and relaxing, they might count as some of the "stakes" that help anchor my "tent" when the storms of anxiety hover on the horizon.
In the future I'm making sure I've already have eaten now I'm hungry...lol
As usual great video Luke..
Nice video and meal !!!
I don't know Luke...this argument about parking facing out or in is interesting to me. I do believe I would park with the vehicle facing out so I could blind any intruders pulling in on me with my headlights if necessary and it's logical to believe you could get out faster if blocked in by moving forward rather than backward. Of course as you say blocked is blocked but with a big overland truck like you have if I had to push something out of the way I could see what and how to push better from the front window. Interesting discussion. Curious to hear others opinions.
If you hit front of vehicle to push your way out, vehicle wouldn't go far without radiator,...backend hit might be better for functional driving after they are slammed out of the way
@@sandramcarthur1866 But most of these overland vehicles have brush guards on the front like police and emergency vehicles to protect vitals
On your parking comment, always be prepared!
If your self defense plan is to be afraid/run, that’s a shame. I do see value in facing a vehicle outward though. But I park backed in in EVERY situation!
Always find your videos relaxing and informative and have purchased a few things based on your reviews! Thanks!
Would a personal protection dog be an idea to have when adventuring? I know you go out armed but could be good to have a sentinel. BTW, love your videos because I love listening to the rain.😊
Awesome video!
You made it just on time Luke
It's common for people in the fire service back into their parking spaces. The reason behind this is for quick and easy egress. You just pull forward quickly without having to worry about backing into anything or anyone. It's pretty handy in parking lots because people don't like to stop and let you back out, and you don't have to worry about someone blasting through the lot and you not seeing them.
You are making me hungry.!!!! Lol…
I run those tires and I love them.
Would love to see an honest review of Kelty Highroads overland shelter, very few reviews on it.
Always locked and loaded
Great test video. I can’t wait for the reviews.
Side note. Parking your vehicle pointed out allows you to turn headlights on any adversaries so you can see where to aim lol
Aww right off the get go Loved seeing the deer come check you out. Very cool that your testing Three tents. Those buns and meat oh ya looked tasty, I watched the video you spoke about it would have been scary. I expected the bivy would leak. Thanks for the review.
There is one advantage in parking in the direction of the exit, that is better maneuverability when driving forward as opposed in reverse. It's a negligible advantage but an advantage none-the-less.
You ever thought about getting an awning with side panels to set up camp rather than a tarp? It'll offer more protection and is easy to set up
I think it's great suggestion
He mentioned in a video that he'd rather not mount an awning on his vehicle.
@MrFTP ahh I haven't heard him say that. Alright
Tarps are so versitile.
I definitely enjoyed this video 👍🙌 Peace and Blessings 🥰
Nittos have been my favorite for a while also
Anyone else get so invested into watching these so early on while he's setting up and you're like....bro you want some help with that? Only to realize you're on your couch and can't do anything about it lol.
Like to hear you laugh Luke 😊
Big 👍🏻 RUN DUDE RUN🤣🤣🤣
Wow, that's quite an adventure you had with the thunderstorm! Next time consider having the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series as your back up. It's got a massive 5kWh capacity, super fast recharging and it's waterproof! Perfect for those unexpected weather changes.
Always carry a weapon or two, and know how to use it. Be prepared to defend yourself and family, but Always enjoy your trip. I hope no one ever has to use a weapon, but if you do, know how!
