Dude, it's just some salesman tracking Luke to ask if he's thought about extending his car warranty. It's not a black bear, it's not Big Foot, and it's not even one of the baddies from Scooby Doo.
Luke, I always love your videos, but when these mysterious events occur during your travels, it just drags me in, like a moth to the flame, I can't get enough, great work!
The Cherokee, my ancestors have a story of a large giant that lived in that area. Everyone knew not to hunt for game there because the giant would kill you if he caught you. One time two young men of the tribe went there to hunt because at the time the game was scarce. They were found by the giant and was chased by him. They got away but there is a rock that has claw marks in it and it is said that those marks were from the giant as he jumped over rocks to chase the boys. To this day the rock is sacred to our people. Thank you for another great video.
@@Delta2-4Gaming Judaculla Rock served as a landmark for the hunting god. Some historians believe the etchings to be a map of the Battle of Taliwa where the Cherokee defeated the Creek tribe in 1755. some archeologists have theorized its a remnant of a pre-historic tribe who lived at the end of the Ice Age.
Even with the fog, the background of the forest behind you with the contrast of the reddish leaves on the ground is just SO BEAUTIFUL. It’s a huge reason why I love your channel. Just the natural beauty of the forest
I just HAVE to tell you, that when I'm too tired to watch ANYTHING'S else, I always, always tune into your channel. It's like being there myself. Thank you! Don't change a THING! Also: LOVE LOVE LOVE the thunderstorms on your channel. The rain on the tent is AWESOME!!
The one thing I'm sure off. I'm sooo glad you didn't stay camping overnight. I was sitting at the edge of my seat even before you mentioned the big poisonous snakes. I don't really believe, at least not yet, about big foot. The stories about certain places that have uneasy feeling when you are there, for whatever reason, yes, i do believe in that. Thank you for another amazing video, Luke. Stay safe!
I don't understand how people DON'T believe in bigfoot at this point! With all of the numerous sightings and the various levels of education and jobs that the people have that have reported specifically seeing them!! From Joe the garbage man to Joe the physician.
Whatever is out there will only let you see it when it wants you to. There's a lot of dark things that live in the shadows of wild land. Most people are to distracted to notice the signs. Places like that should be taken seriously and never mockingly.
I'm a 61 year old man and have done a lot of camping by myself well me and my horse and have been through a lot and I've learned to always have a firearm at all times just for the predators both 4 legged and the 2 legged stay safe my friend
Lucas, we camped where the AT and Creeper Trail meet up. We had a fire, and I felt something touch my leg. I thought my hubby was getting fresh, and then I realized he wasn't close enough to touch me. I clicked on my headlamp, expecting to see a critter. But there was nothing! Definitely a WTF moment!
I wonder how much extra walking he does when he sets the cameras up to walk past them only to have to turn back around and pick it up lol. Idk why i find it funny but i respect it
Luke you are a man of your word. Glad you followed through with your commitment. I do remember your first trip to Devils Throne. Those footsteps were so creepy. I could clearly hear them. The Forest people like to flank you and walk along side of you. A very common pattern one experiences.
Check out the back end of the trail at 33:41. It looks like something/someone walks across. Its very slight and it could just be the angle of the gopro and the way the trees are set. Definitley worth looking at.
This keeps popping in my mind. A quip from the rudyard Kipling poem. If You Can Keep Your Head When Everybody Round You Is Losing His, Then It Is Very Probable That You Don’t Understand the Situation
I found myself yelling at the tv screen" Run Luke, RUUUUN!!!! I don't think I'd visit that trail again but you are much braver than I am. I am the oddball that likes walking and hiking in the rain. I enjoy your videos, be safe out there.
Hey Luke if I may could I suggest using those medical exam gloves. 2 on each hand, You'd be surprised how warm they keep your hands while keeping the dexterity you need.
I remember watching your video from a year ago. I had the audio turned up for this one and I definitely heard what you heard. Be safe Luke, in all of your adventures my friend.
I'm really thankful I'm not a hiker lol. I grew up camping from the time I was 4 month old till I was 20. We went camping every week on my dads days off during the summer. Dad tried to get mom, me & my twin sister to go on a hike, we'd all say "no thanks". I still love camping. My ideal retirement would be me & my hubby camping every weekend. Altho with me being 66 & he being 81???
Luke’s resourcefulness in this video is truly impressive! Escaping a storm by utilizing a massive rock as cover during heavy flooding rains is a survival skill worth learning. The way he adapts to the changing conditions and makes the most of natural elements is both educational and inspiring. Kudos to Luke, the Lone Wolf, for sharing these practical tips with us! 🌧️🏕️🔥
I completely agree with you... Anyone who spends enough time in nature will encounter things they can't explain, but keeping an open mind and an eye out for trouble and you should be fine. Bigfoot? Maybe, fun to entertain, at the least
What scares me more than a bigfoot encounter is those dang rattlesnakes. At least we can ALL hear the footsteps in the background, so that was not your imagination.
I think we all heard what you did. Those foot steps were very loud, even in the rain on the forest floor. The screams yes heard them well. Be safe and Devils throne was just as exciting this year too.
Hey Luke. Loved your folk lore stories and the adventure. I don't know if I ever told you before, but I was once the co-founder of the Lone Star State Paranormal Society here where I live in Texas. A friend and I started the group back around 2008 or 2009. We did ghost hunting for about 5 to 6 years. Back when every channel you tuned to had a paranormal show on it, more than now. lol I can honestly say I saw things I can never explain and heard things I could never explain. On one of the very last hunts we did, I saw a black mist figure in the room with me, our cameras didn't pick it up, and my team members couldn't see it on the video monitor. When I went back a day later and listened to the voice recorder, I picked up a voice during the same time I saw that figure, saying "Death is Here!" That was just one of several things that made me get out of ghost hunting.
I have experienced the same in the desert. In my case it was even more difficult to find an explanation. There were no big trees or bushes where a big animal could hide. But I could hear steps in the sand/gravel. I did not see or hear anything strange or weird other than the sound of the step. The plan was to camp overnight but something did not feel right. I decided no to stay. Planing to go back this year….let’s see what happens 👻
I watched till the end and yes something was following you! I watch all types of videos, even paranormal sometimes, and that sounded very eerie to me based on things Ive watched from investigaion type videos. Just be safe, and keep your eyes open. Not being fearful is probably your best defense, but your braver than most, I'd be terrified, lol. Glad your safe and always aware of your surroundings, Love your content and your honest approach to your videos. Much love, from Iowa
I like the experiences and scenery,this is why I don’t care for the silent videos. Not trying to be rude, you do an excellent job narrating your videos and the quiet ones just seem like a downer, glad you are saying what your video is
Great hike with an unknown guest 😳. May I suggest short-teeth rock cleats that slip over shoe/boot. Very lightweight and packable. They are a game changer for slippery rocks and around waterfalls snd anywhere slippery. You can literally tap dance on the slickest slimy rocks 😊 I think of them as animal claws 😊
Here's a little piece of advice..my friend's dad taught me camping alone etc. If it capable of following you.. then it's capable of possibly injurying you!! . And you probably need an escape plan or a plan to keep yourself safe .
I have followed you for years as a subscriber. Thanks for your hardworking videos. I do appreciate your honesty and seriousness of everything that you do. You don’t bs around…👍Again, gracias amigo and blessings…
I am a skeptic as well, Luke. I backpacked for 63 years almost globally; military and civilian years. I encountered bears, mountain lion, large elk, one moose and a couple crazy badgers...never a Bigfoot. Being a very small part Cherokee on my dad's side (South Carolina), I have an open mind.
I have seen the bigfoot several times. They mostly observe people. I do think the dogman exist also. And there may be other cryptids out there. I believe that some cryptids are pure evil. Bigfoot usually hunt in the dark and usually sleep by day.
Plaster casts made of Bigfoot prints exist, and have been collected across numerous continents. Nests have been found that contain fur which was caught on branches. The fur was DNA traced to an extinct asian class of apes. There are recorded sounds of Bigfoot. There are films and videos people have taken of them. There is also an extinct ape known as Gigantopithecus which we have fossils of that were found. We have eywitness sightings by people going all the way back to Eric The Red's first visit to North America. We have native American legends which mention them.
I have seen one, so have my brothers, once you encounter these things, you never forget, and then you realize, Big Foot is real, and it blows your mind.
Hi Luke , loved the comment on phone placement, did make me laugh. Thanks for taking us on another adventure looked beautiful although treacherous Thanks again Luke take care
Love the videos. I have a suggestion that I'm sure others have made. For a guy who loves coffee, it feels like a missed opportunity to only drink instant when there are a host of camping coffee makers that you could review. Maybe you've done this and I missed a few episodes. Your videos are relaxing to watch.
You definitely have guts. I’m not opposed to the idea something is out there. But at the end your face frightened me, the look on your face gave me the chills. What I know is I don’t know. Stay safe. Love love your disposition. 👍🏽🙏🏼
Not a believer in big foot or supernatural....but people are definitely to be feared. But love the mystery you create... love your hikes... over the top music.. keep it up please.
I watched you go there the 1st time and foot steps again!! A wee bit too unnerving for me Luke. Its so dense my imagination would be running riot. Thanks again for the video.
The constant thunder provided the perfect atmosphere for this adventure. I heard the screams, which could have been a bird(?), and I think the footsteps.
Luke! Being a skeptic in these times I know is the healthier mind set. You are Open to Adapt if it warrants, therefore you are very Open and not closed to just people, places, things, times & event's. That is, a Balanced View 😊
Intriguing is one word for it 🤣 Thank you for another great video. You always make me want to get out in the back country so I can stand in a river and wave a stick.
Sounds like you had a Wood Booger/Sabe/Forrest Person Shadowing You. Some people can sence them if they are around. Trust your Gut, if you feel like something just isn't right, then turn around. I understand that you want to hike/camp. But if you ever see one, You will understand. It changes everything. Just remember if you get that gut feeling, find another place. I have seen one up close, Something That is Etched in my mind. I never asked for that to happen, but it did. Be Safe, you have a good head on your shoulders. Cheers from Central SC.
You sound like you're a member of The Club of No Return. I'm a member, a knower and not a skeptic. Once you've had an encounter, it changes you forever.
Orange is a rejuvenating color for me and besides that, you can’t really lose it that easy. I think big foot likes orange as well and Luke is so buff and cute! 😜Probably a female Sasquatch or a light in the loafers one! Happens all the time!😂 oh Luke Luke Luke be careful😊
I reference that song Everytime it rains and your the first person to actually say the same thing. Everytime I say it no one gets it and I have to explain it. Great video btw always enjoy your day hikes. Be safe out there
Luke, just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos. I do some mild gopro/filming etc but when folks talk about how much work it is, you really need to physically do it your self and experience it. Man... the prep, set up, planning, charging, packing gear, walking past the camera only to go back and set up further down the trail, whoa! Thank you sir!!! That's just in a nutshell haha! 🙏
I remember your video from last year, simply because my left side has very little tactile sensation(mini-stroke), hence my balance can be iffy sometimes. It’s day 59 of chemo and still chugging along. Cheers dude.🤙
You're saying Luke is carrying a handgun in a chest rig?? I'd say NOPE. I don't think he's carrying period. He doesn't have one on his hip, and I don't see ANY evidence of a chest rig. I'd say it's wishful thinking on your part!!
When I was going to Penn State for Wildlife I was picked to give two reports on bears, Grizzlies and Black Bears. I read every book available at the time from every bear expert and have come in close contact to several Black Bears while working as a Forest Biologist in Montana. virtually every hunter, hiker, fisherman who was ever attacked by a Grizzly never had a suspicion there was even a bear in the area before they were attacked. This doesn't include those occasions where someone stumbled across a female with cubs. That was just bad luck. Black Bears , unless they have become habituated to humans, are very quiet, secretive animals. They have fur, which is very quiet in the woods, and padded feet which make virtually no noise in the forests. Of, the recommendation is to lie down and play dead if attacked by a Grizzly. As tough as that is to do, it is the only real "defense" you have against one , unless you have time to use your bear spray or firearm. Grizzlies do not usually view people as a food source. However, if you come across a Black Bear that steadily walks you down and won't be dissuaded by yelling, hitting trees, whatever you try and finally does charge you, if you lie down in front of a Black bear that is showing this passive / aggressive behavior, it will eat you. If you don't have a firearm, forget about trees, they can climb as fast as a squirrel. The only real defense is a deep body of water. A man from Canada videotaped just the scenario I described a few years ago.A big Black male bear just slowly walked this man down, going side to side, but moving towards the man. He yelled, threw clubs, hit trees.The man was beginning to get really scared until he saw a lake behind him. he ran into the lake, up to his chin, holding his phone over his head. The bear walked up and down the shore line. The man had cell service and called the fish and game, whatever they are called up there, and they told him to Stay where he was and they would get there as soon as they could. I don't remembe rhow long he stood in the lake, but it was summer. Finally they showed up, with hounds. He waded out of the river and the dogs took the scent and treed the bear, which they shot. They also found a partially eaten man not 100 yards from where he first saw the bear. Oh, Bigfoot? No Bigfoot. There are millions of more people here now than there was in the 60's when this all started. There is no such thing as wilderness anymore and everyone has a camera and drones are everywhere.Everyone just wants their ten minutes of fame. Paranormal? That's another story. While a lot of it is bull, not all of it is. I and my wife and daughter and son can attest to that, maybe 45 or so years ago. And he family that moved into the house after we fled, well my wife fled, I had to show I wasn't afraid, but later, I had had enough. The next family that moved in had the same experience there and they left abruptly also. The last family that moved in didn't last a month..Finally someone burned it down. I suspect the owner did as it had fallen into disrepair..
@@rabadabadoo491Aye, as my dear Dad told me when I was 13 and had lied to him about something, "Boy, if your word is no good, you're no good."I lived my life by those words.Doesn't mean I never lied again, but that I never promised or gave my word without doing everything I could to do what I said..
I looked after the last video and again now and can’t find any mention of this location on any map. Is it Devil’s Courthouse? I’m near the NC mountains, get up to the Asheville/Linville areas every few years or so and want to check this out maybe. Speaking of, Linville falls is a cool hike, even the beginner easy one where you just see the falls from afar.
Whatever was walking behind you I’m glad it didn’t show itself. I’m glad you didn’t fall on the rocks either. I kept expecting a bear to pop out at you. My heart was racing!
@@CrimeVid LOL, I walked around the corner and there was a mom with a cub. Only thing I heard was my heart. This place had guard dogs. They were up for the night. Right beside the enclosure. Scary she had no fear of the dogs.
Cougars/mountain lions are the most stealth creatures in the USA. That’s their super power - stealth hunting. You never know they are there till their incisors are in your neck.
That’s a beautiful place you out but please be careful I know you’re not afraid that I always like watching you you’re one of my favorite camping shows between a be camping with Tony but I watch you more I learn a lot more from you and I enjoy your stories just OK enjoy Tonys please keep up and be safe your fan Valerie
Thank you. I have had a few similar things happen to me along with others experiencing the same thing, something following us in the woods. Blue mountains, WA, Oregon, Idaho area.
@@ac1dburn698 i used to think ppl were getting dumber with so many more obvious mistakes than in the past.. until i used my phone for writing texts and posts and the damned autocorrect kept second guessing me time after time, changing words... sometimes it gets so annoying one cant be bothered to re edit if its pretty clear what was intended.
Your like me Luke seeing is believing, but always go with your instincts, them woods are uncanny and just watching you gave me a gut wrenching feeling of GET OUT OF THERE, hope your armed and keep safe, love your vlogs feel like I’m there with you, disabled and in my bed most day x x ❤❤❤
It might have been a bear following Luke. The bear was probably impressed with Luke's orange backpack. The bear might have thought the backpack was a huge piece of citrus fruit---citrus fruit that walked.
Hi Luke! I was hoping you’d follow up on last year’s adventure and you did not disappoint! It baffles me how you’re not scared in the woods especially when being followed. I’m all over the place with what is following you but I’m leaning more to a loner who lives in the woods. Yes please do camp there for Halloween! Bring Susie! Love y’all’s content!
You should set trail cameras to catch what’s following behind you and collect them on your way back.
Nah, use a back camera - one mounted on your pack that faces behind you.
Oh…oops…it’s the camera guy!
Agreed 👍👍 Great idea
I really like it when you talk about the history and folklore about an area that you're hiking on.
I do too!
Luke, you are brave. I can feel the creepiness of that trail through the video. Something is definitely off about that place.
Dude, it's just some salesman tracking Luke to ask if he's thought about extending his car warranty. It's not a black bear, it's not Big Foot, and it's not even one of the baddies from Scooby Doo.
I agree... I wouldn't have gone back
I agree 100 % with you….i had the same feeling watching the video…some thing was definitely off about that trail.
Yup, I feel the creepiness too.
Luke, I always love your videos, but when these mysterious events occur during your travels, it just drags me in, like a moth to the flame, I can't get enough, great work!

That means going into the area where the giant lives. Kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I learned a long time ago to never ignore the indigenous people and never make fun of their beliefs.

As mostly Cherokee you should believe our folklore, many generations know alot about the outdoors and we pass along information that saves our lives.
I trust a native's thoughts because they know the land more than any human being on the planet.
They came from drinking too much fire water
Amen
So very true!👍

There is also an extinct ape known as Gigantopithecus which we have fossils of that were found. We have eywitness sightings by people going all the way back to Eric The Red's first visit to North America. We have native American legends which mention them.
I have seen one, so have my brothers, once you encounter these things, you never forget, and then you realize, Big Foot is real, and it blows your mind.
Hi Luke , loved the comment on phone placement, did make me laugh.
Thanks for taking us on another adventure looked beautiful although treacherous Thanks again Luke take care
im wondering if u were hiking past rock formations hidden in the woods that were reflecting the sound of your own footsteps back?
I thought that same thing !
Love the videos. I have a suggestion that I'm sure others have made. For a guy who loves coffee, it feels like a missed opportunity to only drink instant when there are a host of camping coffee makers that you could review. Maybe you've done this and I missed a few episodes. Your videos are relaxing to watch.
Good balance applying the rain pants Luke
healthy hips
You definitely have guts. I’m not opposed to the idea something is out there. But at the end your face frightened me, the look on your face gave me the chills. What I know is I don’t know. Stay safe. Love love your disposition. 👍🏽🙏🏼
Not a believer in big foot or supernatural....but people are definitely to be feared. But love the mystery you create... love your hikes... over the top music.. keep it up please.
Thank you Luke for going back to this area. Wanted to see a follow up to your first video and now we have it. Thank you sir!
I don’t think I’d be hiking to a place called the Devils Throne
Hey, demon's gotta use the John too....
I believe in the unseen. Please be careful lots of folks go missing. We ❤ you.
a very beautiful forest, but it also looks very scary you can hear screaming and it's good
I watched you go there the 1st time and foot steps again!! A wee bit too unnerving for me Luke. Its so dense my imagination would be running riot. Thanks again for the video.
The constant thunder provided the perfect atmosphere for this adventure. I heard the screams, which could have been a bird(?), and I think the footsteps.
could also be a rabbit screaming, they sound similar
@@Kira-zy2ro that's the first thing I thought. It also sounded a little rodent like as well.
Luke! Being a skeptic in these times I know is the healthier mind set.
You are Open to Adapt if it warrants, therefore you are very Open and not closed to just people, places, things, times & event's.
That is, a Balanced View 😊
Intriguing is one word for it 🤣 Thank you for another great video. You always make me want to get out in the back country so I can stand in a river and wave a stick.
Thank-you for incorporating more metric conversions in your videos. Cheers from Alberta.
I love the orange gear!!!
TRUMP Gear...🍊
You’re so brave Luke glad you’re safe 🙏🏻🇬🇧🇺🇸
Sounds like you had a Wood Booger/Sabe/Forrest Person Shadowing You. Some people can sence them if they are around. Trust your Gut, if you feel like something just isn't right, then turn around. I understand that you want to hike/camp. But if you ever see one, You will understand. It changes everything. Just remember if you get that gut feeling, find another place. I have seen one up close, Something That is Etched in my mind. I never asked for that to happen, but it did. Be Safe, you have a good head on your shoulders. Cheers from Central SC.
You sound like you're a member of The Club of No Return. I'm a member, a knower and not a skeptic. Once you've had an encounter, it changes you forever.
No these are the type of videos I like the reviews are good but these are so much better
Orange is a rejuvenating color for me and besides that, you can’t really lose it that easy. I think big foot likes orange as well and Luke is so buff and cute! 😜Probably a female Sasquatch or a light in the loafers one! Happens all the time!😂 oh Luke Luke Luke be careful😊
I reference that song Everytime it rains and your the first person to actually say the same thing. Everytime I say it no one gets it and I have to explain it. Great video btw always enjoy your day hikes. Be safe out there
This adventure is scarey. My solace is knowing you must have gotten home to upload the video.
Luke, just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos. I do some mild gopro/filming etc but when folks talk about how much work it is, you really need to physically do it your self and experience it. Man... the prep, set up, planning, charging, packing gear, walking past the camera only to go back and set up further down the trail, whoa! Thank you sir!!! That's just in a nutshell haha! 🙏
Just a quick hello Luke and hope family are well 🫡
I remember your video from last year, simply because my left side has very little tactile sensation(mini-stroke), hence my balance can be iffy sometimes. It’s day 59 of chemo and still chugging along. Cheers dude.🤙
I nickname you “Tom Bombadil” because you are brave and unaffected by fear.
I’m watching your video and I hear that walking to it spooking me be careful you are brave I would be running for my life Luke
Luke is packing heat....thats why he wasnt scared. Hail, Hail the 2nd Ammendment!
you know he is
looks at chest level
You're saying Luke is carrying a handgun in a chest rig?? I'd say NOPE. I don't think he's carrying period. He doesn't have one on his hip, and I don't see ANY evidence of a chest rig. I'd say it's wishful thinking on your part!!
@@jasonmacneil2256 He has mentioned many times that he carries
stay up
@@SteeleHand attacking the wrong guy here,m8
@jasonmacneil2256 so because you dont see it means he doesnt have one?
You better never try to attack me. Lol
Beautiful photography. I like to watch your videos a few times and look at the scenery.
When I was going to Penn State for Wildlife I was picked to give two reports on bears, Grizzlies and Black Bears. I read every book available at the time from every bear expert and have come in close contact to several Black Bears while working as a Forest Biologist in Montana. virtually every hunter, hiker, fisherman who was ever attacked by a Grizzly never had a suspicion there was even a bear in the area before they were attacked. This doesn't include those occasions where someone stumbled across a female with cubs. That was just bad luck. Black Bears , unless they have become habituated to humans, are very quiet, secretive animals. They have fur, which is very quiet in the woods, and padded feet which make virtually no noise in the forests. Of, the recommendation is to lie down and play dead if attacked by a Grizzly. As tough as that is to do, it is the only real "defense" you have against one , unless you have time to use your bear spray or firearm. Grizzlies do not usually view people as a food source. However, if you come across a Black Bear that steadily walks you down and won't be dissuaded by yelling, hitting trees, whatever you try and finally does charge you, if you lie down in front of a Black bear that is showing this passive / aggressive behavior, it will eat you. If you don't have a firearm, forget about trees, they can climb as fast as a squirrel. The only real defense is a deep body of water. A man from Canada videotaped just the scenario I described a few years ago.A big Black male bear just slowly walked this man down, going side to side, but moving towards the man. He yelled, threw clubs, hit trees.The man was beginning to get really scared until he saw a lake behind him. he ran into the lake, up to his chin, holding his phone over his head. The bear walked up and down the shore line. The man had cell service and called the fish and game, whatever they are called up there, and they told him to Stay where he was and they would get there as soon as they could. I don't remembe rhow long he stood in the lake, but it was summer. Finally they showed up, with hounds. He waded out of the river and the dogs took the scent and treed the bear, which they shot. They also found a partially eaten man not 100 yards from where he first saw the bear. Oh, Bigfoot? No Bigfoot. There are millions of more people here now than there was in the 60's when this all started. There is no such thing as wilderness anymore and everyone has a camera and drones are everywhere.Everyone just wants their ten minutes of fame. Paranormal? That's another story. While a lot of it is bull, not all of it is. I and my wife and daughter and son can attest to that, maybe 45 or so years ago. And he family that moved into the house after we fled, well my wife fled, I had to show I wasn't afraid, but later, I had had enough. The next family that moved in had the same experience there and they left abruptly also. The last family that moved in didn't last a month..Finally someone burned it down. I suspect the owner did as it had fallen into disrepair..
Did ye, Aye?
@@rabadabadoo491Aye, as my dear Dad told me when I was 13 and had lied to him about something, "Boy, if your word is no good, you're no good."I lived my life by those words.Doesn't mean I never lied again, but that I never promised or gave my word without doing everything I could to do what I said..
I looked after the last video and again now and can’t find any mention of this location on any map. Is it Devil’s Courthouse? I’m near the NC mountains, get up to the Asheville/Linville areas every few years or so and want to check this out maybe. Speaking of, Linville falls is a cool hike, even the beginner easy one where you just see the falls from afar.
Big Foot is following you my friend. Stay safe out there and have a great time.
Look at timestamp 34,22 to left of the overhanging rock, slowwed down to 25% zoom in the spot thats sparkling and movement around.
Whatever was walking behind you I’m glad it didn’t show itself. I’m glad you didn’t fall on the rocks either. I kept expecting a bear to pop out at you. My heart was racing!
For real, no BS, there are mountain lions there. I have even seen them down on the valley floor here with cubs.
I don't think you will hear those big soft paws.
@@CrimeVid LOL, I walked around the corner and there was a mom with a cub. Only thing I heard was my heart. This place had guard dogs. They were up for the night. Right beside the enclosure. Scary she had no fear of the dogs.
Cougars/mountain lions are the most stealth creatures in the USA. That’s their super power - stealth hunting. You never know they are there till their incisors are in your neck.
Missed these kind of adventures! hope we see them more often, thanks Luke!
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY Luke and thank you for sharing your adventures in the wild outdoors
I’m from Syracuse as well bro. What’s up 🤙🏽
Hi my friend stepping out of the comfort zone
Me too cherry road in Westvale
That’s a beautiful place you out but please be careful I know you’re not afraid that I always like watching you you’re one of my favorite camping shows between a be camping with Tony but I watch you more I learn a lot more from you and I enjoy your stories just OK enjoy Tonys please keep up and be safe your fan Valerie
You are correct Luke. I’ve said this before but fear is not real it’s an individual mental concept…danger is very real but not fear
Thank you. I have had a few similar things happen to me along with others experiencing the same thing, something following us in the woods. Blue mountains, WA, Oregon, Idaho area.
You might want to get a drown to check areas where no one can get. You're right about the mental part is true.
Wtf is a drown
Wow, gets one word a little mixed up & you can't understand ?.. Obviously they mean "Drone".
@@simongibson6228 must be your boyfriend
@@ac1dburn698 i used to think ppl were getting dumber with so many more obvious mistakes than in the past.. until i used my phone for writing texts and posts and the damned autocorrect kept second guessing me time after time, changing words... sometimes it gets so annoying one cant be bothered to re edit if its pretty clear what was intended.
I enjoy your advancers but I am also a skeptic until I see it or hear it for myself he safe strong. May God bless you.
your being stalked by a subscriber .great video as always x
Rain and thunder is wht's best. Love your videos!
Does not fear monsters or wild animals in the woods. Fears ball cancer. I rate it xD
Your like me Luke seeing is believing, but always go with your instincts, them woods are uncanny and just watching you gave me a gut wrenching feeling of GET OUT OF THERE, hope your armed and keep safe, love your vlogs feel like I’m there with you, disabled and in my bed most day x x ❤❤❤
It might have been a bear following Luke. The bear was probably impressed with Luke's orange backpack. The bear might have thought the backpack was a huge piece of citrus fruit---citrus fruit that walked.
@NoTrail he does? I've seen everything he's done for years, haven't noticed that at all.
I'm 😂only happy when it rains, lol, Garage.
Dracula collar, very appropriate with the company, on the trail.
@@NoTrail100% but my favorite thing is the Thunderstorm audio overlay he likes to throw on us from time to time.
@@NoTrail then stop watching your
Deal.
Hi Luke! I was hoping you’d follow up on last year’s adventure and you did not disappoint! It baffles me how you’re not scared in the woods especially when being followed. I’m all over the place with what is following you but I’m leaning more to a loner who lives in the woods. Yes please do camp there for Halloween! Bring Susie! Love y’all’s content!
