One thing I learned from being in law enforcement is that, no matter where you are and what time it is, someone is milling around and has eyes on you. You can think you're in the most remote place and you're alone, but you're not. Obviously, I'm very suspicious of people because I've seen their propensity for evil, but I try to stay grounded because it takes a toll.

It makes me sad that people have decided it is ok to bother others but for fun. But for a woman alone it can be very scary. Not so much now with the gun.

I'm an 82 year old Army vet, trying to get back on my feet after surviving stage 3 esophageal cancer that cost me my esophagus and most of my stomach. Back in the day I used to do a lot of camping, mostly in a Boy Scout Explorer tent, and I really enjoyed it. I've been watching your videos, and they've got me wanting to go camping again, but in a vehicle instead of a tent. Hoping to do a bit of that this summer. I really enjoy your reviews and all your comments. No BS, and no agenda is the way to go, as far as I'm concerned. I can't do much hiking, as my lungs are shot due to working with a bunch of different toxic chemicals in my early 20s. But I can still enjoy being out in the woods and on the back roads. This is just to let you know that you (and Susie) are a big part pf that. Thank you, my friend, and keep on going! Strength and Honor -

@brendablackington8299 correct, but I wasn't the one who made the statement. I could care less if people complain. Waste your life on matters that have no hope and / or reason to change. I merely was just asking a rhetorical and ironic question about an oxymoronic statement, not starting a debate.

Sadly, the world has never lacked in assholes or jerks, and that's putting it politely. Anyone traveling alone, but especially camping/hiking/hunting out in the 'Sticks,' had better have their safety/security at the forefront of their mind/attention. Carrying protection (There are many kinds) is mandatory, and if you can also manage it, get yourself a good trusty Doggo! They're outstanding 'First Alert' systems, and depending on what Breed you pair-up with, also excellent deterrents to things that might be out seeking to cause trouble/harm. Enjoy our world, yes!

A little tip I learned, park your vehicle facing outward of the campsite. That was if someone comes in at night and blinds you with their high beams, you’ll be able to crawl out the back, take cover and protect yourself. And blind them back.

When I go to the NC Mtns My Glock 23 is in the truck and My Glock 27 is on my side. I have had to many odd things happen. Now one april years ago me and a friend camped in a nice spot. We both had our 30-30s, At night we saw a bright light over the valley and we were trying to figure it out what it was. Then it hit us it was the brown Mtn light. A very neat thing to get to see. Stay safe and keep posting stuff.

I live in an area that was taken by eminent domain by the national park system, CVNP, when hiking on CVNP land I often see old posts and such that were left after homes and farms were razed. It's always a reminder of the town that once occupied the land.

When truck camping anywhere other than a typical campground i carry a large caliber handgun.. when motorcycle camping i carry a smaller caliber one. Those late night visitors of yours was one thing, but then them returning 2 hours later was sincerely troubling... i also tend to stealth camp, using a mixture of camouflaged tarps and natural flora for both my truck and motorcycle when dispersed camping.

@Eye_4_An_Eye 23 дня назад

you know what bro i know u are always strapped and ready. so am i. i watched many videos of campers running into dangerous people at night. youtubers who do camping videos plus camper stories and ever since then, years ago, i made the smart choice to get my ccw and it turned out saving my life when i thought simply having my dog with me was enough. it wasnt! to anyone going out doing solo camping or even with people, always bring a gun. the world isnt like it once was. stay safe no matter what. its not a matter of IF, its a matter of WHEN. pop first ask questions after. make sure YOU make it home to your family. period!!!

I want to thank you for reminding those of us who don't go out alone that safety is our responsibility. I guess that being part of a generation that grew up knowing they needed to plan for anything they might need to be able to deal with before they left town was a routine part of our getting our stuff together before we went out the door. I hear about people getting lost, and no one has any idea of where to start looking for them. my first thought is, did you plan on falling off the trail today? NO? Check in with a Ranger's station, leave a note on the inside of your car with a contact number of a person you have filed your trip plan with. Taking things for granted is a good way of not being able to take things for granted any further.

TRAILS is a great name for your 4Runner. I live and travel throughout our country in a GMC Savana cargo van. I put most of my gear in storage to allow me to spend the least amount of time setting up camp. No more awning, no more privacy tent, outdoor grill. Everything is in my van. I pull up and I'm set to camp (boondock). I eat, sleep and perform functions in my van. I carry a 20-ga protection alongside my bed. In over 2 years, I have never had to remove it from my bedside. I have over 30K miles with no issues. I plan to travel until I can no longer drive. My entertainment is watching your videos, Netflix and listening to multiples of music playlists. I am a happy nomad.

I have missed the early days of instant mashed potatoes as a staple of your camping meals. When you remarked that it was time for dinner, I thought to myself “I wish Luke would break out the Idahoans” and out came the cup of instant mashed potatoes. Yes!!!! Always be ready to protect yourself, day or night. Glad you are safe. See you in the next adventure.

If you have a cup of instant potatoes and not use the container, just get a reusable container and buy a regular box of instant potatoes. Saves money!

In my experience having lived in three Southern states at times, when driving into a neighborhood in the South in many spots, the residents wave at you. Not really all being friendly as it serves to check you out a little. Some also is hospitality and kindness but like I mention a lot is seeing who you may be and what you may want to do in the area.

@erizzle67 23 дня назад

Your RU-vidr friend is a genius. It’s called fabricating or encouraging engagement. They will say a word a little wrong, etc. A great example is that woman a couple years ago who made a video and mentioned Star Wars and called the bad guy “Dark Vader”. Comments were just rolling in. Engagement.

I watched a single nomad woman from California go venturing into the Georgia area. She was so panicked about the folk that live there. When she found a camping spot It was located in some really tall grass. The next day she met the neighbors down the road, an older couple and the man offered to mow her camp spot so she and her dog can walk around without being eaten alive by chiggers. They invited her for dinner and let her shower when she needed. She soon found out her fears were silly.

@highdesertdrew1844 23 дня назад

I travel all over the desert southwest (AZ, NV, UT mostly) for work and play. Even though I have a home to go to, I usually sleep in the car, campsites, rest stops, truck stops, etc. I usually try to find spots a bit further from the road, or that won't be along an obvious line of drift. I've had a few encounters, nothing too serious. I do keep a 2000 lumen Streamlight flashlight handy, that also happens to be attached to a .300BLK AR pistol. One thing I do, I sleep with my head towards the hatch, and my feet towards the drivers seat. I find this makes it a lot easier to get into/out of the vehicle when you have to.

@cheryl83 26 дней назад

I would've hit the alarm button on the key fob when those visitors showed up. Also, I would feel really exposed with the windows uncovered. Cover them with some kind of two way material so you can see out and no one knows who or what is in that vehicle. You would have the upper hand and the element of surprise not being seen.The sound of a gun being cocked is also a deterrent.

@professionalics 16 дней назад

I would suggest to invest in a good dash cam which would aid in capturing such detail if ever needed for any kind of follow up matter. It helps alot be it on road/off road or when you are away from you vehicle camping and would like to see whats happening around your vehicle. Also some extra footage option for your videos if need be, Tech support at times comes quite handy!!!

@necessaryevil5910 22 дня назад

Maybe you should set up a trail cam in the future . It could send pics / vids to your phone , just in case it got ugly. Really enjoyed the video and all your gear reviews. Strength and Honor !
