The Bushcraft Overnight Adventure - The Outdoor Gear Review 

You're a damn good guy, Brother. I'm extremely glad that I stumbled across your channel. Thank you for sharing with us.

This video is almost six years old, and I've only just watched it now. It was amazing! Great job back then Luke. This is one of my favourite videos of yours. Really liked the shelter building, just hanging around the fire at night, and also some talk time inside the shelter. Would really like to see you do another one in this style this winter. Thanks again Luke!!

Nice job! Thanks for your positive upbeat attitude, its a pleasure watching your vids.

I remember this video, helped me a lot those times when I'm battling my anxiety. Thanks sir luke!

You are DEFINITELY the nicest guy who has ever slept outside! Great video again Luke, awesome camera work! Must have took you ages! :)

This has gotten me so excited to hone in on my skills and practice on things I need to improve. My kiddos are still pretty little, but I can't wait to show them on trips like this. Thanks so much for these vids, I know what I'll be watching for the next week. "White man make big fire, stand way back...Indian build little fire sit up close."

Great video, and nice choice of axe. I have a Wetterlings myself. Greetings from Sweden

Great video my friend! I was tickled to pieces when I found a video I haven’t seen before. I have been rewatching ones I have previously watched. Great job! And God bless y’all!

Your a cool guy!!! Your vids are perfect!!! Thanks for all you do for us viewers!! The time u take to film these, tell us about ur gear, and answer questions for us who are interested in this kind of stuff!!

man, you are one awesome dude! Just got to the part where you talk about your mother in law. We need more people in the world like you sir! I'm new to the channel and I just got into this bushcraft stuff... My dream overnight to watch would be you and Joe Robinet! Love both of your channels! And YOU always get me with that laugh.... lol its contagious! can't wait to see all your videos brother! god bless!

good video. fun shelter. at the end you talk about cancer. my dad is dying of cancer. he only has a few days to live. it is in all his organs too. he is 84 years old. i live in the mt hood national forest. i make survival shelters and do this stuff in my videos. great videos but when you mentioned the cancer and prayers. i just could relate cause i am about to lose my dad any day now. they say less than a week now. he is in the hospital now. i have been using the hatchet he gave me to make my shelter in my newest video. i have been shooting some of his guns he gave me in other new videos. hello from me hood. thanks for giving me a hour to enjoy this video and not think about my dad dying. peace.

A man after my own heart! A winter bushcraft camp. Man O Man... Haven't been able to get out this winter for an overnight. Way too cold here in NW Ohio this year, even for me. Thinking of you and your family brother. -Woody

This is my favorite video yet, and I like them all. Have you tried using mineral oil instead of WD-40? You can just keep an oil soaked cloth in a container for wiping blades and saws. Always great work, and especially on this one. :)

This is the kinda thing I really like to watch something from nothing it’s fun to watch it grow u need to do more of this type of outings

Wow, this dude is positive as fuck. What a guy, amazing! *clicks subscribe

I love your videos. I used to think that there were no more good people in this world. But I recently had a experience that changed my mind about that. There are still good people in the world.

I'm going start watching these types of videos, awesome man!

been teaching my two grandsons about bush-craft for a couple years and love every minute

GREAT VID ! Nice upbeat delivery ! Interesting use of WD40 which does come in mini-cans and could also be used to accelerate fire lighting in the wet. Common item in many folks truck tool bag anyway. It's clear its a "nice to have" rather than a "need to have" not necessarily in the top 10 but something a little different.- Greetings and best wishes for your MIL's comfort in her closing days.

One thing you may want to try next time for your fire is the Scandinavian style all night fire that you can make with just two logs. it would be perfect for the shelter you had. I've built them three times now in overnight situations and it kept me perfectly warm all night long with out having to tend to the fire.

the tyvek is up side down boister travel through in one direction only

Nice outing. Looks like you had a good time. What part of the country are you from?

loving the over night adventure luke , all you need is a bay window and patio and your all set for bbq lol time well spent makes live so much easier

Hello from England! Thank you for your videos which are so enthusiastic and such fun to watch. You're a genuine enthusiast and it makes your videos so easy and enjoyable. I also like your fireside stories, which are a great idea. I am sorry to hear about your Mother in Law. I hope she is doing ok and my thoughts are with her and your family too. God bless and keep up the great work!

Really enjoyed the video and the fireside chat. Great trip

I tend to watch these at night to just chill out and the yawning gets me going every time. Great vid.

Really liked the improvised shelter. Our family goes wilderness camping quite a bit. We will have to try this out too. Great vid!

You are awesome... perfect shelter, perfect fire , perfect cooking , perfect night. Great video and prayers to mother in law. Keep these vis coming :D

I really appreciate guys like this. Taking the time to make a quality video.

I Don't usually comment but I felt like this needed to be said. You are a refreshing person man. If there were more people like you, the world would be a better place keep up the great work.

This was a great video it brings me back to when I was in Scouts and we would go winter camping making shelters out of anything we could find.

Got to say man, I really like your vids. I just got into stealth camping and overnighters this year and watching the vids helps till I get to head back out again. Keep up the great vids.

Great show as always you take time to explain what your doing. Most other channels won't bother doing that and the fact you go through the different items of gear and what they do. As an experienced hiker and bushcrafter I really enjoy your programs. Keep up the good work my man.

I will pray for your mother-in-law been there done that it's a rough situation understand be patient loving and kind God bless you and your family Luke I appreciate this video

I love going back and watching these classics Luke!! Great job and happy camping.

Just stumbled onto your channel, really enjoyed this video. I think I need to get out and try one of these shelters.

Great skills. Great educational presentation: upbeat, clear voice, flowing continuity, many useful bushcrafting (and some gear) tips. Thanks.

That was a great video! You built that shelter almost exactly as I would have. Only dif is I would have gone thicker on leaves and sided out with leaves too. To be extra sure of a good deal but with the super shelter it evened out. Great stories. I'm impressed with the sleeping bag. I love my Eberlestock destroyer. Miss my Kajka though, I think I'm going to replace it and get the slightly smaller green 75l. Can't say how much I enjoy your overnighters Luke. Truly a pleasure to watch you. You're such a good guy. Articulate and polite. And funny as heck. I'm not just saying that because it 2am either. Lol Be well brother Craig

Man, you are so awesome. I love going camping even though I am only 13 and I just love watching your videos. :) This shelter helped me last time I went with my friend. We went to kinda try to survive. We brought food because we are too young to hunt, but nothing else. Only a saw, a knife and some cord. It was warm and awesome thanks to your amazing shelter. One of your youngest followers, Uros from Serbia. :)

I’ve used this method of staying warm camping in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, works great!!

This is my absolute favorite bush craft video. Only thing I would’ve done different is the use of tarp over the frame before the debris. However that would be if I want to shelter for a long long time. Nice job Luke

Not an outdoors type of person, but loved your delivery. It was fun and somewhat amusing. Thanks, Keep doing what you're doing

Thanks for taking the time for another great video Luke. God bless the family.

I don't even look at the woods with out at least a tarp in my pack lol. Good job, great vid with some cool tools and tips. It's also a great advert to always pack a silver blanket, invaluable when building shelter as they are next to no weight and take up next to no space.

You are like the best youtuber that makes camping and gear reviews! In my opinion at least.

love your videos man, thoughts and prayers to your mother in-law from Newfoundland, Canada. keep the videos coming happy travels and God bless!

This is how you are supposed to review outdoor gear, actually use them!, great video.

I am from your neck of the woods I have camped and hunted the area of GreenWater since I was 14 now 58. I am looking forward to more. Thank you.

glad to see you left the lean tu up. never know when a lost hiker or a small animal needs a shelter and doing so doesn't violate the leave no trace theory. Hey, if you return here with a tent or tarp, you've got a ready made source of firewood. I approve

Truly awesome video, Luke! Your super shelter rocks! Problem with my watching your videos is your introducing a product not in my inventory...now I gotta get one. That Boker is a beauty. I have some mini Boker-like boot knives I found in one of my travels as a Class A driver. That tanto blade configuration is a winner.

This is by far your best overnight bushcraft IMO ..I hope you do more

Bro you have amazing videos.. Some of the best gear reviews and outdoor info Ive seen on youtube.. You at least show and talk about outdoor techniques and dont just get stuck on the gear review.. you talk about how the gear helps you not just trying to sell the gear.. TOTALLY ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS KEEP IT UP!!!!

Great video, very informational! I love watching all your videos, you seem like you really enjoy being in the outdoors. I live in the city and can't get out as much as I would like but watching your videos always makes me feel like I am a little closer to the outdoors! Great work, keep it up

That was another great adventure. Excellent improvised shelter also. I have never made one, but this has inspired me to try it. Great job!

Hey Luke - I am a new sub, and I really have become a fan of your vids! I am an avid outdoorsman but, at least for the foreseeable future, I am stuck at home writing and don't have the time to get out and enjoy nature. You are providing a service, I think, because others can live vicariously through your experiences. You have definitely found your niche, and after viewing many of the other channels, it seems that your positive presentation style is miles ahead of many others in the genre of camping/bush-crafting. I have never seen so many positive comments on a channel - obviously you are doing something right. Good luck my man, keep up the great work, and thanks for helping feed my passion for the outdoors!  Mike

Dude, you are like bursting with positivity!

There is something about watching your overnight videos that tickles my jealousy bone. This is likely because I watch videos about camping more often during the times when I can not make it out. But that is part of coping when living in the city. Anyway, it seems like you had fun and I was entertained. Keep up the good (and obviously strenuous) work!

Great video! Been waiting a new one. The leaves on the back reminded me of 2 night trip a friend and i took lst fall. 2nd day really high winds an temp in mid 30's. Spent all day building a wind break packed with leaves on the back for our tents and fire. After all that work sun went down winds stop and it was one the best night of the trip. :)

Prayers for Susie, you and all your family hun 🙏

You are right about people that are drunk. I think you did the right thing you have a good heart. My prayers go out for your mother in-law. Luke that was a great overnight. God bless

Awesome shelter! Pretty envious of that one.... Great video on this adventure. You are an amazing man for opening up your life the way you do around the campfire. That takes a lot, and it doesn't go un-noticed or un-appreciated. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

Bro, you are a good person. First off, your vids are awesome and you get your viewers attention and keep it by including them in your taped adventure. But the story of that drunk guy in the front of your property, taking a midnight swim in the middle of winter, that is crazy. You still got up out of your warm house and comfort zone to help him get to his own bed, that is righteous. Not everyone can be their brothers keeper, but you really showed that guy some kindness that night. Good for you man. Cheers

Makes me want to camp more! Great video by the way.

This was a real fun video to watch, I subbed. Very informative and you really seem to know what you're doing.

Hey, fantastic! A real shelter, good tools, well-equipped and looks like you're having the time of your life! Real jealous! Keep buggin' out! :)

Finaly, been waiting a long time for this adventuer :) and as always it is a blast to follow ya.. always with good spirit and a smile.. keep up the good worke Luke. My prayers to your mother inlaw and your famely.

I think you made a great 'shelter' and with mostly the items you had around you ! it looks like fun, I wish I had a woods like that to play in! A little different in Florida. Great videos!

Nicely done. It makes us Northern Minnesota boys want to get out there, once the temperature gets a little warmer. I like that you spent the night verses just making it and then leaving it at night and sleep in your warm comfortable bed, yet your bed is typically where you rest your head. Later, Cast Iron Kid

Great video production skills! Outstanding quality and logical, easy to follow sequences. Well done, sir!

Wow! great outing. I just discovered your channel and I'm glad I did. Thx for all your efforts. I'm just starting building my 1 day and 3 day packs and I just love your reviews. Keep up the good work! Cheers from Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Looks like another great adventure Luke! Good job with the shelter, looks like it kept you nice and toasty, and then some. Looking forward to seeing the military surplus adventure! Hope your mother in law is taking it easy and is as comfortable as possible. All the best to you and your family, it's difficult to watch the changes.

Good job Luke! Can't wait for the military surplus adventure.

Great video. great shelter, great fire, great stories and great gear. Do you get what I'm saying here... During the day I work with hospice care. We will keep you and your family in our prayers.

Interesting shelter many good points. My prayers for your mom. Hope you leave the site as you found it. As a native of the NC mountains God bless.

Pretty good night out. That camp would be good for a few nights out in the woods. A couple of notes: at first I thought you should add a bunch of leaves, etc. under your tyvek to create a bedding layer but then I was thinking how much moisture those leaves were holding so it was unlikely to be that insulative. 2ndly, your fire was a bit close to the live tree and it appears to have been scorched a bit. With everything else, it looks like you have your skills down pat and are pretty knowledgeable about your area. Lastly, my mom passed away from cancer several years ago and I know what you are going through caring for the in-laws. Best wishes.

No morning coffee? I wouldn't be able to get going without it. great video. keep up the good work. If you ever get a chance take a trip to dolly-sods, WV wilderness area great trails.

I think this is my favourite video you have ever done.

Another awesome video Luke. Hear what you're saying about heading out in the rain as that's all I'm getting at the moment but things will no doubt improve. A good cold blast and some snow would be appreciated. Take Care

Doooooood, that snowstorm you mentioned at 39:52 is know as snowmagedden here in GA. It 100% shut down Atlanta for 3 days, and the rest of NW GA. I had a nightmare getting home from school in my dad's 2 (rear) wheel drive pickup truck on the frozen roads full of traffic. We ended up ditching the truck bc there was no chance we could make it through the mountains near my house and hitchhiking/ walking 2 miles.

Very nice video, buddy. You make me want to go outside just right now. That shelter was awesome, very easy and simple to do, but sturdy. By the way, you speak so clear that i can understand you without so much trouble (Im not english native). Greetings from Chile. Keep going that way, you have a new follower. Felipe.

Great Job Luke on that shelter, thats a lot of time and calories spent. I'm glad you did eventually comment in the number of hours it took. That doesn't really come across on the video, until viewers can see the sunlight dimming. My prayers and warm thoughts go out to you and your family in regards to your mother in law. Thats a tough time for any husband/father/family. My mother in law passed 4 years ago and it was hardest on my wife and kids. Its just another one of lifes "Manhood tests" that get thrown our way as loving/supportive fathers and husbands.

Thanks man!! I just got interested into bushcraft and solo camping and stuff so your vids help!! So thanks a lot!! Your awesome!! May God bless you in ways you couldn't imagine!!:)

This is such a great video, needed to see something like this ages ago, glad I came by it :P Keep it up and I'll be looking forward to watching more! :)

Thank you Sir, great video.Lots of little but important details covered regarding your shelter ...instructional and funny as well. Thanks again and the best to you and all your family.

Another great video! Your vids have inspired me to change the direction of my channel a bit. Now that we've seen your bushcraft skills..maybe another interesting theme for an overnighter would be using all high-tech gear. By the way, you got me TWICE with the yawning in this one! All the best.

Hey Luke, have you ever considered making a bushcraft video series where you build a long term part-natural shelter on lone wolf mountain? Maybe have your kids help you out even.

Well I was exited to see this video and it certainly delivered. Great work on the camp!

The BEST vid .. (i think) you have done to date yet Luke.. Amazing bro. Keep it up, all the best dude!! :)

Great video! Awesome shelter, and might I say your video editing skills are coming along as well! Your Mother-in-law is still in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope she is able to be as comfortable as possible and enjoy her family and friends before she moves onto a better place. Looking forward to the "after the camp" video.

Liked your posting. Have to find the time to enjoy this. Prayers to your family

I just came across your channel and you definitely have a new subscriber. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and really picked up slot of great ideas. I can't wait until the next one...all the best...Jason

Great video Luke, It's now becoming one of my past time, is to see what else you are up too! I really enjoyed it and I will pray for you Mother -in Law, and for your family, you know at a time like this we all need all the pray we can get. Best of luck to you all! I am waiting on your next video, really looking forward to it! Your pal , Pugs

Really good video and also like your little tips and stories ! Pretty much my favorite channel out there !

Hey. I watched your video and it was amazing! My brother and I will be on a camping trip on Puerto Rico and he told me t get new ideas from Bushcraft videos. Yours, was so far, the best. Thanks!!!!!

Thanks for taking us along Luke. Great video.

Sweet jeebus, a folding saw, can of WD 40. No WONDER your pack is so heavy.

Fantastic video! Really liked the way you put that shelter up. Thanks for the vid, you have deffinately earned a like and a sub! :)

Just surfing the Tube, and found this video again, yeah, I have a couple of Bokor's, and their good, but lately I've been taking some of my Swamp Rat's through their paces, the Ratmandu, for that size knife really shines, the Rodent 6, with it's top gaurd removed, looks like a beefy Ratmandu on steriods, great 6"'er, my best 6" knife, but the Rodent 7, is a super great camp knife, similar to your Bokor Plus Armor Knife, actually, it would be nice for a face off between the two, their similar in size too, and it seem's like it's doing real good for you in the video, and me knowing how good my Rodent 7 is, I think it would be a great review, Thanx, I enjoyed this video again.
