On this episode of Weekenderlander, I go out with John Lovell (Warrior Poety Society) and his wife on a little camping trip. John recently learned the word 'Overlanding' - so that's kinda what we're doing, but really just driving down an easy dirt road and doing some car camping. On this weekenderlading trip I jump across a river, land wrong, and roll/sprain my ankle really bad. Also, we all just have a rad time camping and hanging out. Hope you enjoy!

You know you're a gun guy when you're hanging out with John Lovell - two of my favorite TH-camrs, subscribed to both.
"Given that its sharpened like an axe...how smart was hammering with it?" Spoken like a true NCO 🤣🤣🤣
Colorado is so beautiful. I'm from Illinois so we overland potholes
Too true😂😂😭
Agreed!
haha so true. Grew up in WI and now live in MN. I always tell people I go urban off-roading--Some of the worst trails are Interstate 94 with all those potholes. Need a beefy truck
And tax bills.
Lmfao thats all i have!
Love seeing the firearms TH-cam community collaborating and uniting!
Good gosh this colab is amazing two of my favorite channels
It was a good time!
Amazing?
Those aircraft are C-130 with MAFFS II (Modular Airborne FireFighting System) probably from the 302nd Airlift Wing.
The orange#s on the side confirm they are either air Force reserve or air national guard c-130 aircraft outfitted for wildland firefighting
Love watching the 2A/gun/camping/prepper community coming together like this. Awesome work guys (and ma'am).
The aircraft.
The orange markings on this C-130 show that it is one of the planes that the Colorado Air National Guard has modified to allow for quick conversion to firefighting slurry bombers.They got a lot of use during the big fires.
C-130 with MAFFS II (Modular Airborne FireFighting System)
Wherever the Warrior Poet goes ... we go. 👍
Thanks for the kind words!
Last Line Of Defense 👍
John Lovell for President 🇺🇸. Mike LLOD for VP 🦅
And Jocko for Secretary of Defense.
@@mikestrock Talon for Secretary of Housing and Urban Development! Lol
They were C-130s military cargo planes, also used for weather in some places. The airforce flies them into the eyes of hurricanes through the storm walls to gather readings and measure how strong the storm is, they are old but still pretty awesome.
The two aircraft were air tankers used to fight wild fires. They drop fire retardant along the fire lines to slow the fire. Here in the West they are life savers and the crews are incredible. The area you were in must have been a huge fire.
@@blulight1170 C-130s are very useful and serve many roles storm chasers, cargo, fire suppression, gun ship, truly an amazing aircraft
Those were planes.
I roll my ankle every time I go camping and hiking. I now bring a brace with me. Great video, I love the collab with WPS.
I love how all my favorite TH-camrs are somehow connected or friends. Sorry about the ankle brother... hope you recovered fast, thanks always for the great videos!
John is awesome! been a huge fan of his for a long long time! his little intro and promo for sportsman is always HILARIOUS!
So cool you could teach John a new word
I cant stop laughing when you're talking about your rolled ankle and John is in the background going absolutely crazy on that wood. I laughed when the two of you posted it on your Instagram and im still laughing at how ridiculous it is now. XD
mrs poet was very amused during that part, haha.
HAHAHA. "Is that what you call what you're doing, walking"?
Warrior Poet with the dad jokes! And yay for that.
I can’t wait to see Johns modded out overland Prius!
I landed on a guy's foot rebounding in a basketball game. Rolled it 90 degrees. My ankle turned purple and swelled to the size of a softball by the time I hopped over to the Emergency Room, which was literally across the street from the gym. Doc said bad sprains can be worse than breaks, just like you said. Was in a cast from the knee down for weeks and it wanted to turn if I looked at a crack in the sidewalk for what seemed like forever. Hope you didn't rip yours as badly. Maybe they have better treatments today. (I won't say how long ago I did this, but you weren't around). Get well soon.
LLOD& Warrior Poet = win. I commented on your last edc post asking what if any med your carry as a prepared person. This video leaves me with the same questions a basic kit would for weekending would have a ace bandage and some chemical ice packs to deal with a basic injury. Lots of good options out there work that into your channel
Yeah plenty of ace bandages and stuff for more serious trauma and more minor stuff - but had planned to add some of those little cold packs after this incident. Though I literally had a fridge/freezer as well, haha
Drones have come so far in so little time. They really provide an average person with so many cool videography opportunities. Yay for that.
I cringed when I saw you fall back. I know that pain well. Tweaked my ankle in Iraq on some rocks and it took forever to heal since I refused medical attention. Great video as always and the scenery is absolutely stunning!
It is a bad feeling for sure...
first Tim from MAC, now this. Its good to have John near.
Or bad?
but He is safety advisor. Its just that sometimes we all make something really..not wise. We only people. Hope You will have no problem in future with this. I got this problem couple years ago, but now Im ok.
Haven’t seen an update on the foot, but good on you for seeing the doc. Had one friend fall 23 inches on to concrete ( on his feet). Fit athletic dude figured it was just a sprain but two surgeries later and having to ride a knee bike on light duty around the station for a couple of months cured him of the “let’s wait and see” bug. Got the nickname “scooter” after that. This was 5 years ago and the name still stands. Like the channel tons , you remind me of a friend I had when I lived there ( though he is likely old enough to be your pop). Keep up the awesome work!
Alright bro. I've watched a bunch of your channel. Love this one - John and Mrs John are awesome. I checked out his web.... I love his approach. so sympatico. You just became my favorite overlanding channel. Keep up the good work! Thanks for the introduction to Warrior Poet. Keep the great information coming.....
They're great people!
Great Vid.....hope my comments don't drag out too far. I have been a big fan of Johns channel for a couple years. Cool to see him in my backyard. Been playing out there in P.N.F. for 22 years. Welcome to "the hood Warrior Poets". Glad you didn't get too jacked up. Makes you think though......if it was a bad break, just what an ordeal that would become out there. As well as living in the area.....I am one of your local NFFD medics. Hope we never have to meet that way. I did a transport from that area last week. Just over 90 minutes and 60.5 miles to the nearest trauma center by ground. Probably a 45 minute response just to get out to that spot. Golden hour GONE. Medivac an option depending on injury and weather.
-----Cool to catch the C-130 flyovers. They play a lot, low flying in the area. It's a regular sight. #1 always gets your attention.....then #2 and sometimes 3 & 4 will catch you by surprise. I catch a lot of flyovers in the Pine Valley from my house. They will come through below the ridgeline. Very cool. Good to see how deep the creeks are flowing this year. So green for mid summer, and awesome we can have campfires. The drone footage is way cool. Love seeing that perspective of the area. We're so spoiled to live here.
----- Heal Fast !...... Shoot Straight......Keep The Wind At Your Back......Peace~Out from P.G.
“That was a mail plane.”
“How can you tell?”
“Didn’t you see the little balls?”
Males have little balls.
Mail has little stamps.
c0mputer The Three Amigos 😆
literally my two favorite creators of the community in one video. love it
Crazy hearing John and mike’s voice on the same vid. And I watch a ton of vids on both channels
I will say Mike, i came here for the Gun content, but I have really loved this overland/weekenderlanding content. Definitely worth the time to watch all of your content. Keep it up!
This collaboration was awesome! Mike, I'm sorry you rolled your leg, but really; who better to have sprained it with than John Lovell and Mrs. Poet? Great episode!
My friend did the same thing to his ankle when we left the strip bar. And he was our designated driver!!
"RTLW bro" LOL! God bless JL.
Hey, as to pounding stakes into the ground, information gleaned from land surveying, get a an old rail-road spike, leave in your truck - along with at least a 3 lb. hammer, the spike is used as a “starter” for the hole for the stake. If your driving the stake to hold something, don’t drive the spike all the way down.
I’m so happy to have found you. My world has been very difficult with a suicide and a passing away in the last month. It gives me a smile to see your videos. I’ve watched John’s channel for quite awhile. Very happy you are friends. Much love. D😎🇺🇸
Ouch..
I’ve twisted my ankle doing something similar.🤕
Get it checked out soon.
I did that 12 years ago. Went black up to my knee and even my toes went black. Was years before it felt okay and now it hurts when it gets cold. Good luck. I dislocated my thumb yesterday and now my hand is black so I'm looking forward to years more rehab with that. As you say, most accidents can be avoided but then we'd never have any fun :) Get well soon.
Love seing the gun guys together it makes it feel like a small world 🌎👌
Was reading the just delivered Air&Space magazine this morning over breakfast. Big cover article on CalFire and the air war against wild fires. There's a great pic of Air National Guard C-130J - kinda like the 2 you saw - dropping retardant over the 2018 Carr Fire.
Sprain, remember ICE, immobilize, compression, elevation. Those planes were C130s I believe, cargo planes, just add firepower, sensors and you have an AC130 gunship
My 2 favorite TH-camrs this is awesome well done Gents well done!!! Mrs. Poet saved the day with Salsa!
Chick-fil-A salsa =D
Great friends, great fun! I love Colorado and own a small parcel in the southwest corner. That will be my base camp and will overland from there. Not many car campers think about it but those small shovels are often crucial in survival situations, especially in the winter snowstorms. I keep one of those breakdown shovel kits in my Jeep, one that has multi functions. I don't know if you've done a survival gear video for overlanders but I would love to see one from you.
Great video! Hope your ankle is healing up quickly Mike!
Several years ago I was helping my uncle dig a hole to find a buried fitting and as I twisted right to left I felt this warm tearing sensation from my pelvis to my neck. Doctor said I pulled all the ligaments in my back.
The sound I heard was like ripping a cloth or t-shirt in half. Wasn't pleasant.
Since then my back's never been the same. Can go out at any moment. I'm a heavy guy and I know that doesn't help by adding that extra strain.
Just gotta be careful I guess.
Those hub style tents are used by hunters a lot. We call them ground blinds, all camo'd out, quick and easy to setup. But you'd better use all (8) the stakes when in the open and not deep into brush. Those 4 corner stakes wont hold it when the wind kicks up. I've had mine end up in an apple tree or blown 100 yards away in the hay field. Not what you want find in the early am for hunting!
I broke my orbital bone, fell about 8 ft face first on a rock, never got knocked out, and if i hit the back of my head would have died 100% now i got a metal face plate. I dont take risks anymore. You only have one life, make it a safe one.
Beautiful place!!
Hope your ankle gets better. Sprains sometimes hurt worse than a break.
Thanks for the video 🙏
P.S. next time: more of Mrs. WP and less of you. 😂😂😂
“Gas it up and burn it down.” 🤣🤣🤣
Oh shit I seen those planes in colorado before... Red Dawn. hide!
Haha!
Yeah that sucks, man. Something similar happened to me 4 years back while playing flag football with my friend after work. I end up landing on side of my foot and rolling my ankle sideways. Doctor gave my just brace and speed sticks (crutches) and after week or so I was able to walk only with that brace but... my ankle was fully healed after at least 3 months. Good luck and hope you'll be well soon.
Great Colab! Happy to see you doing videos with other good TH-camrs
Bucket of cold water...that's what I used for my ankle the last time I strained it. I've had really good luck with icing injuries. But I do not follow the recommended protocol of 15 minute on, 15 off. I ice for an hour or more. It works like a miracle.
Sprained my ankle 4wks ago. Google "HEM," I did the free pdf version of the exercises and was up and going in a week. I work construction, so I need to be on my feet quick.
I'll check it out, thanks for the recommendation!
Hope the ankle makes a full recovery! Rolled mine while trail running, gave it months to heal but never returned to 💯. Surgery was painful along with 3 months of physical therapy, 2 years later I’m back at it. I’m probably twice your age so your body will likely heal more efficiently.
Yeah, it seems to be healing up slowly but surely...
Two of my favorite tubers getting together! Thank you!
As one of my favorite TH-camrs, you do so many crossovers with my OTHER favorite TH-camrs. Love the content. Keep it up.
You know when you're with John Lovell..........when the special ops does a fly-by to see if your cankle is ok!
Yeah they airdropped a care package, too!
I carry the warrior poet ankle ifak kit on my grab handle inside my sport trac. Awesome edc product from an equally awesome dude. We love John lovell here in the peach state.
They looked like C-130s. Had a chance to fly in a couple of them in Japan and Guam.
Had two of them fly side by side over us on Tarryall Res. We were on a small boat and did not expect that moment at all. It was spectacular
And John didn't even shoot anyone. Good footage.
Watched this one out of order last week. Went back because I think you mentioned this one in the latest video. On to the next one!
I saw johns video today only to learn that i had missed a few of your videos. Went camping and10 hour days and with a baby, left me no time until tonight. Maybe next colab you can stay healthy. I love Johns channel. I do kind of miss a little sites he had going where he would research a warrior poet room history.
I F'd my ankle up on a hike a few years back 2.5 months before i left for basic training. As a 33 yr old going through basic training i might ad (air national guard) I didnt even keep off it w crutches or anything so it took a while to heal but ended making it through all that running in basic w no problems luckily (you do not want to be stuck in med hold!). Thats my story lol
Nice what is your afsc
I’m in POL (fuels)
I have seen those same planes out near deckers.
They love joy flyin and I love seeing it
First of all, I love when youtubers I've been watching for 5+years do collaborations like this, pretty awesome. Second, I feel your pain with the ankle injury. I sprained mine really bad a couple years back and it took a good 4 months for it to heal up to where I wasn't limping anymore. Good luck with the ankle and keep up the good work brotha!
Gotta respect the dad move by John at 7:50
That airplane the c130 j model looked like my old unit the 146th airlift wing. Those orange numbers mean it can be used to fight fires. It has a MAFFS unit installed on the aircraft. There is only 4 maybe 5 units that have the fire fighting mission. It’s an awesome aircraft.
Good stuff Mike! Would love the possibility of John coming out again to teach a class in CO. I know the logistics aren’t that simple, but it could be cool! I could get you guys into the LEO range in Utah if you wanna come. 😉 Thanks for sharing! Hobble on!
Yeah he was out here teaching classes for 3 days - not sure when he'll be back though...
I figured I wouldn't be the first to say, but I dig both of you guys! Nice collaboration.
Mr & Mrs Poet, Where are the young'ns? I bet they would love it out there.
Very cool tent ⛺️ wow sorry about The ankle
This was one of my favorite videos. Love seeing my favorite channels doing cool shit together.
Great collaboration. Love warrior poet too.
It's crazy how all the gun guys I've watched are getting into overlanding. LLoD, Talon, and now Warrior Poet.
Nice collab. Great vid!
Get well. Next time be wiser and be careful smile. I loved that drone video part. So cool!!
If that’s the burn area outside P National Forest, it’s one of my favorite spots to camp/fish/shoot!
Awesome to see you hanging out with John and the Mrs., sorry to hear about your ankle though. So what's the verdict? Broken, not broken?
Need to do some more testing - but xray showed no fracture, just a really, really bad sprain, which is actually worse than if I had just fractured it. I also may have something up with some muscle connection in my achilles - need to do a follow up ultrasound this week.
@@LastLineOfDefense Hope you have a speedy recovery. Sorry to hear
@@LastLineOfDefense , Speaking from experience [it's true a sprain is actually much worse], I went through 2 years of recovery w/ surgery and im still not going to be 100% ever!.. The terms used for my ankle roll was 90-100% complete ATFL tear, with nerve decompression from scar tissue that replaced some of my fascia around the muscle above the ankle... Good luck with recovery, do everything the PT clinic advises. Fort Collins surgeon ID'd the scar tissue after a year of pain...
Thank goodness the warrior poet was there to save the day - proved to be quite the overlander weekender ax thrower!
When there are two of them like that they’re actually called “pairplanes”
...no?
Smh😔. Lol
✈✈
Great video again thank you
The music and Text at 9:40 is solid gold!
Great episode, love the collaboration work with you and John. That Drone footage was awesome, of the truck and trails Etc. Hope your ankle improves quickly and thanks for posting, always enjoy the Weekender Lander stuff.
Lucky for me, I watched this while the wife was dressing for work. She saw the Gazelle setup portion and fell in love with the concept. Ordering today!
Haha nice!
Love both of you!
Two(3) of my favorite TH-camrs in one vid!
I did the same thing to my right ankle last september . It's still sore at times . Try your best to do excersizes to strengthen it up
Just saw warrior poets video. Great vid. Ever thought of making some " Go where Subarus can't go" just a suggestion. Small investment. Great return profit. Small inventory space. And ANY Tacoma Bro wouldn't hesitate to slap it on their rigs....
Now if we could get an all star team of you, WPS, and Talon all at once!
Awesomeness!
ye need to teach ashley to fly the mavick so you can get the rolling drone shots more often... it is a great way to add some epic "b footage" to the videos especially when traveling in a group.
When weekenderlanding becomes gimperlanding... =( Thanks for soldiering through and making the video, man. Great to see you and John doing a collab video. Great first throw with that Cold Steel shovel. I gotta try that throwing challenge at their next parking lot sale; maybe, even get one especially if they're selling them at a discounted price. Anyway, "it ain't an adventure until something goes wrong", right? I pray you heal well in good time, bro.
Appreciate it man! And yeah throwing shovels makes for a good time, haha.
@@LastLineOfDefense I love both of you and am hurting inside now missing you! Thank you for making me feel alive after he left me. I never fully recovered so it hurt me to see you in pain! I think it hurts me more than you!
Wow, amazing. Did not know both of you knew each other. Awesome!
Waterloo or spindrift over lacroix. Better yet just ice cold mountain valley sparkling or spring water
Great stuff Mike, the Poets rock!!! 👍👍👍😃✌️
Hell yea! My two favourite people in one video!? 😎
John and his wife? Yeah they're pretty rad, haha.
Man I tell ya what, I need to get stationed in CO, that place looks amazing. IL is no place for an outdoorsman.
Mike,the blood pooling by your heel indicates a fracture.There is not much they can do except soft cast and crutches-but that’s better than a sprain which could take far longer to heal.
Love your channel and Lovell’s too.RLTW!
I went and got it checked out - unfortunately it is a sprain.
Last Line Of Defense ugh,I’m sorry to hear this.It’s a bad sprain to have blood pooling in the heel.Take it easy while healing-please try not to go too hard too fast or it can get worse.I busted my ankle last year in a fight with a suspect,and didn’t even know it until we had him in the hospital-then the pain hit.A sprain is always worse than a fracture-which only took me about 3-4 weeks to heal.
you went rock crawling while driving with a busted ankle.... Im sure that was loads of pleasure!
