As a female who camps alone I cannot stress enough to follow your gut instinct when out in the wild. Always be prepared for anything & be willing to leave your camp for awhile if needed. Have multiple forms of protection on your person. I also take extra gear to look like more people are with me. But following your gut is your best defense imho. I've avoided a few campgrounds due to a bad gut feeling. I've left a few in a hurry as well.

Thank you for sharing, Luke. I grew up in a world surrounded by that stuff so when I got older and realized how unstable and dangerous those people can be, it definitely started to curdle my blood. The unpredictable nature of junkies is why they're so dangerous. Stay vigilant.

We were in the bottom of a canyon miles to even get down there. At night I woke up feeling like someone was outside the car, looking at us. Jyst a feeling. My boyfriend sensed it too but we thought we were just spooked. Went back to sleep. Morning we were approached by a skinny wirey looking guy who asked for a ride. He looked very scary and my boyfriend ran him off. No matter where remote you are there could be someone around. Remember thst.

I like carving too! Or in my neck of the woods it's called "Whittling" I used to sit by the creek on my Dad's 150 acre farm in Northern Michigan and sit on an old stump and just whittle away. One time a little muskrat came down the creek and came out and gathered twigs not two feet away from me, he didn't even see me, it didn't even give me a notice, I was so quiet and blended with the surroundings... a great memory.😊

In case anyone hasn't let you know, that was an iridescent cloud, it happens when the clouds droplets / ice crystals diffract light in that sort of rainbowy / multicolored way. The version you're seeing here is likely the start of a pileus cloud, often found above tall t-storms or mountaintops (usually the mountain ones are lenticular clouds though).

Thanks for your comment, I could tell you from the heart

My husband and I were married in 1985. Together we have done a lot of backpacking and truck bed camping in off-road remote areas of the USA, since 1984 and especially through the rest of the 80s and 90s. My husband was always packed and was prepared with a weapon to use if necessary. Why? Well we definitely wouldn't need it for the animals - they're afraid of people. They have the fear of man in them. My husband always said, "It's 'man' who is the 'most dangerous creature' out there, because they're unpredictable." You never know what man will do, so we'd always take along a weapon to protect ourselves with. Sad but absolute truth. Check out how many people have been murdered through the many decades while camping... by 'man'. Animals are predictable, but man is not predictable. Stay wise and safe. Thanks for the enjoyable trip. Beautiful country!

This was September 2003 on a solo trip... miles from anyone or anywhere. To this day I am certain this guy was capable of some pretty dark things... and I was fortunate to keep calm and collected.

Thats scary how did you keep claim

I used to go tent camping with my buddies at one of the busier camping areas in Alaska. More than once we had what we called “camp raiders”. Guys who just show up and want to hang out. We were usually a group of 4 or 5 men with guns, so we were usually hospitable toward the visitors (even though, I never really liked it). Usually they just wanted to warm by our fire and talk about camping. Once we had a guy ride in on a dirt bike. The guy pulled out a bag and asked if we wanted to smoke some weed. We didn’t smoke weed so we declined, but one of my friend’s 14 year old sisters was with us so we told him not to even get it out. He didn’t like that, but he obliged. Then one of my buddies was standing next to the lake and this dude walked down next to my friend and pulled out a .22 pistol and started shooting in the water. My heart jumped and I started looking intently at my friend’s jacket looking for dark spots to appear trying to see if he was being shot. I had my hand on my .45 auto. My friend did not get shot so I didn’t draw on the guy, but we immediately told him he had to leave our camp. We told him it was because of his reckless behavior with the pistol. He left without any further issues and he never knew that 2 of us had pistols ready to go on him (plus 2 others with shotguns in the tents). Yeah, sadly, camping can be dangerous in certain areas.

My partner and I were on the back roads of Montana. We stopped the car in the middle of nowhere and got out to enjoy the scenery. We were just chilling when out of nowhere another car pulled up almost beside us. The windows were tinted, no one got out and they just sat there. We only took a few minutes to decide that this was weird, we got back in our car and left. I don't know if they had bad intentions or not but my gut said something wasn't right and that was good enough for me.

Nope, that's his innate disposition. That's part of his character, not his personality. That's an aspect of him that will be very difficult to change. Personality can be easy to change, character, not so much. I am high functioning autistic and I've researched this particular special interest of mine for decades now.

I'm envious of your adventures. I spent 16 years working with the Forest Service with 90% of that time patrolling either the Lincoln Woods Wilderness Area or patrolling the AT both in VT & NH. I also did about 4-5 years more of volunteer work in both doing trail maintenance and trail and camp ground construction as well . Part of that time was spent going all over the US doing wild land firefighting as well . That was an absolutely fantastic job , and believe it or not I actually got paid for doing it !!! I've never had a better job or one I enjoyed more. The law enforcement part I didn't enjoy all that much as there were some tense situations that arose from time to time like busting meth labs and removing squatters from the National Forest . We weren't authorized to carry but being a former military combat vet my forest supervisor kinda turned a blind eye to that sense he knew what threats we may run into on the trail, 2 or 4 legged and neither were uncommon . Bear and Moose and meth labs were the biggest issues though. I'd normally be out on the trail for 2 weeks at a time doing trail and shelter maintenance, building trails , doing wildlife and forest improvement projects and what ever else needed doing. It wasn't uncommon to be pulled off the trail though , to do high angle rescues , search and rescues or causality recoveries as that was a big part of the job too. I was a certified for high angle rescue, was a SOLO First Responder and was close to being a fully certified EMT as well as being on Fire/ rescue in my town for > 37 years , with tons of other related certifications . There is allot of climbing areas here in NH & VT both and incidents were common and there was only a half dozen of us in all of VT & NH that were certified for that job so 2-3 rescues or searches a month were quite common and much much more during the peak hiking and climbing seasons, Winter or Summer. Lots of folks got themselves into situations they weren't necessarily ready for and when the weather went South on some of these razor back ridges above timber line and in back country/ wilderness areas we got lots and lots of time in doing rescues or recoveries . Mount Washington was " No Joke" when it came to rescues, with >100 mph winds and well below 0 degree f wind chills being common, even in Summer. Some of those above timber line , razor back ridge rescues in those conditions were just a bit sketchy to say the least and could be quite a challenge ! I'm an old coot and disabled now from some of my rescue adventures and am no longer able to carry a pack or hike long distances and even going 2-300 yards at a time now can be a challenge at best, but I still have all my memories after years and years spent in the forest and I don't regret one moment of it, other than being all bunged up so I can't hike anymore. That part sucks to be honest . But don't feel bad for me, in my day I've had the opportunity to do 2 end to end hikes on the AT, did the Long Trail several times, the PCT, the Continental Divide Trails and have done every 4k ft and above peak in the US and most all the major trails in Alaska plus a couple others in Canada and even a couple in South America as well , so I've defiantly had my fun. I was know as "Talks With Animals " on the trail with a turtle symbol being my mark . I've been told many rabid hiker aquatnences that some of my shelter tags and the 2 petro-gliffs I've carved on rock faces along the AT are still present on some of these trails and in shelters where I've been at, so look for them in your travels they could pop up most anyplace in the US and Canada . I still get a taste of the good life after retiring though sense I bought a nice large piece of property just below the highest peak in the area here in VT and my homestead is in the middle of the forest right next to 2 incredible brooks running through my land that are filled with Brook Trout with tons of other wildlife all around me . There's nothing but State , Federal and timber company land surrounding me and there's only 4 neighbors on this entire section of road and nothing after that for 6 miles, and that road section is closed 5 months out of the year for snow or mud. This new homestead is like I've never left the forest and I couldn't be happier. Life is good here at the High Mountain Homestead ! Enjoy your travels as I have, you won't regret it.

I may be tripping. But this guy actually exhibits some signs of addiction. The whole qualification about not being much of a drinker. Only a social drinker. So much a social drinker he has a flask filled with whiskey. The fact he goes in to the stories about all the other addicts in his family and how he literally invents an addict out of a coyote. The qualification against being lazy because a lot of people attribute addiction to laziness when you can have both productive and lazy addicts. I think it's at least possible this person suspects that they may have some addictions and unfortunately our society only teaches us addictions are bad instead of how to take accountability and get help. I'm probably wrong but since they felt the need to just judge people mask off I figure it's fair play right? Turn about?

That rainbow at the top of that cumulonimbus storm cloud is most likely an iridescent pileus cloud, also called a scarf cloud or cap cloud. Pileus clouds are small, horizontal, lenticular clouds that can appear above fast growing cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds. If the pileus cloud is high enough to be made of ice crystals, the sunlight angle is just right, and the viewer’s angle is just right, then the sunlight can be refracted by the ice crystals to make the rainbow iridescence you saw. The pileus clouds aren’t necessarily rare but the iridescence is. So congrats! You got to see something rare and beautiful. 😊

Predators of all kinds take advantage of your forward facing vision. Your eyes should be constantly panning, constantly surveying your surroundings.

Agreed about the photography! BTW this wasn't a sundog, a sundog is part of something called a parahelion, where a halo forms around the sun and there's two "false suns" (usually rainbowy) equidistant from each other, which wasn't going on here. This is a stretched out cloud on top of a thunderstorm that's called a pileus or sometimes "cap" cloud, and it's also "iridescent" which means it's diffracting light in that fancy rainbowy way. Sorry for weather nerding out lol

For that exact reason, I was thankful my friend was always 'carrying' whenever we camped in remote places like that.

I've dealt with some sketchy situations and people while at camp and as soon as they see my dogs they leave. Sometimes the people don't even make it to my camp, i see them start walking towards my camp and they see the dogs and turn around and just walk away Lol. The dogs provide security and PRIVACY. I don't have to worry about nosey campsite neighbors roping me into long conversations while I'm trying to relax... most people are to scared to approach, which is great because I'm not interesting in hanging out with camp site neighbors, I like my alone time.. I'm lucky, my boys are very well behaved, they are only aggressive when they need to be so I can take them into pretty much any situation. We walk without leashes and they stay healed at my side and I can leave them sitting outside a store (un-leashed) and they will stay put until I return. Having a protective dog can literally save your life from an animal and a human attack! Having a firearm is great but a gun can't tell you when danger is approaching. Our dogs hear, smell, and sense things long before we do! Every camper, male, female, or family needs to have protection and be prepared for the unexpected! Gun+dog=safety...

This was awesome, thank you for sharing; please tell your daughter, "from one veteran to another, thank you for your service!"

And that "laughing" sound is a Coyote. When they get nervous or excited about something they will make that sound as they breathe faster. In a way like a dog panting n excited at the same time.

I almost wonder if the noise wasn't a dog in the back of the truck hyped up like you say

That's what I thought he was really jumping to conclusions and judging absolute strangers... superiority complex at its best. I love the out doors and wild camp often.. I don't take drugs and I appreciate I have to share the countryside with others. That really put me off watching him, what a shame.

@Stumbling through life 🤣 no that's me stating I won't be watching again as I think it was judgemental. That's a statement and my opinion.

That's definitely a coyote. He must not get out much.

75 years old. Worked 15 years til I was 62 as a caregiver. Have scoliosis (spinal curvature) and hip arthritis. Quit work to have a second hip replacement. Sitting and doing nothing after cleaning house all morning feels good. Love your videos. Rock on!

thank you very interesting,I'm 74 almost 75 and your advice on drugs and also alcohol is spot on-had good time but also some bad and near deadly experiences on both-moderation with everything is a good way for me ,a little pot won't do no harm but few stop there watched friends die from overuse ,no amount of talking to them helped but hell my wife and I survived and are here today to enjoy life and shows like this have a great and safe journey thank you thank you

I've gone hiking/camping exactly zero times this summer. These videos allow me to enjoy the experience while I'm working from home. Crossing fingers that I'll get outside this fall.
