Hard to watch this video without going to sleep because of the soothing sound of rain on the tarp …lol

Luke, ignore all the neigh sayers regarding editing out the sound of the rain. Living in the high desert of eastern Washington, I dearly love the sounds we seldom hear. I’m so envious of “your rain”.

I love to hear the rain it is one of my fav parts of your videos

These rain test videos threaten to put me to sleep geez! ❤

I listen to a bunch of storm and rain vids at night to sleep over the years. So many have so much rain coming down it sounds like a lot of white noise. This rain i could sleep well with.

I live in Massachusetts and have been getting all this rain after you recently. My son and I love storms and watch the radar and get excited, Then just as they approach, they split because of the hills in our area. All those big flooding rains have passed us by. Growing up my family had a 12 x 12' canvas tent with big "picture" windows in the front. There were panels halfway inside the tent to make two rooms. HEAVY to set up when we camped. Left it set up outside in the back yard all summer for cooler sleeping than inside the house for the six kids.

Hey Luke, having a stressful job, it’s great to relax and watch these gear reviews. I’m not able to escape into the woods as often as you, so it’s always a treat. Thanks for providing a way to virtually enjoy the outdoors until we’re able to get back out there!

After watching Luke for 5years I feel like I'm a camping expert, look out woods !

Could you maybe do a video on how you would go about waterproofing some of the gear you find to be sieve like?😂 Is it even feasible to fix the leaking of the poler tent, and or your tarp? Thanks for your reviews. I thoroughly enjoy your channel.

Sounds great! In Dallas we still had a heat index of 100 at midnight, just over a half hour ago. It got up to a heat index of 114 today again. The thought of the 60's at night sounds like a dream come true. So does the rain for that matter. Enjoy it brother!

Hi from Derbyshire UK, Great video as ever Luke, can't get enough of your honest opinions of gear but love the adventures.... thank you!

Thanks Luke always enjoy your outdoor adventures

We need some of that rain here in Texas

Another rainy adventure on LoneWolf Mountain. I love these adventures and your honest reviews. Your are very correct Luke more expensive isn't always better. Thank you for another great video. Much love to you and Susie from Oregon ❤

Luke … hi. I am a very late starter … aged almost 60. Female with 2 sons plus girlfriends . Having watched your vids I have a desire to camp and I want us to start this year and I’m so happy with your reviews. It definitely helps when people are on a tight budget and you tell it how it is. I haven’t got money to waste on useless goods so your reviews are everything… thank you 🙏🏼

Hi Luke ,beautiful scenery the sweet sounds of the birds ,the sound of the rain on the tarp so tranquil ,makes you want to have a glass of wine and relax or go to sleep lol thanks for the review,stay safe

I’ve said before I think but I have a very nice 42 ft Keystone Alpine but I always take a nice tent and sleep in it. I love the raindrops pitter pattering on the Canvas. It is so soothing and relaxing. Love your videos, you are lucky to be able to live most people’s Dreams. God Bless Sir

Best outdoor gear reviewer on youtube PERIOD!! Two👍👍up!!

Rain storm in the morning like that and I would be taking a nap 😴

The logo is obviously the infamous One Eyed Yeti, a distant cousin of Bigfoot!

I think it should be a law that upper management of a company must spend a rainy night in the tents that they sell. I'm pretty sure that would fix all quality control issues.

Oh I love these videos and the rain test, always enjoy hearing the thunder and the rain falling along with tarp set ups to go with the weather . two gear leaks in one video WOW that sucks , I appreciate your reviews I always know what is safe to purchase Sure hope they refunded Susie for the tent thats terrible. Your videos should help these companies emprove their product. . Thank's Luke

I love your vids ..calm and not too much chattering😂😊...its lovely listening to the rain...cant believe a tent that costs so much leaks... it definitely does NOT do what it says on the tin.

Watching this while on lunch break... always a treat 😊

I love rain!! As long as I have a dry tent ⛺️ ❤❤

Your a great consumer advocate!!!!

thank you Luke for this video and review... love the sound of rain...👍

There's a KZfaqr whose slogan is, "I'll See You in the Trees". His channel is Swan Lake. He lives in Canada, and he's a Native American. It seems to fit that Logo for Polar on the tent.

The Illuminati all seeing eye was exactly what came to mind when seeing that logo for the first time!

I love the rain, too. Great test for that tent. See you next time. 😊

Thanks! I think you have the best camping and gear testing channel on u tube Luke

When you test out these tents like this, it would be a good idea to put a digital thermometer in there so we can see how hot/humid they get

It's a pity that this tent leaked... and leaks so badly.. Hmmm, that logo, is it sasquatch peering out from inside a tree or is it the "all seeing eye of sauron"? I love all these reviews of yours and your adventures. 👍❤️

Good afternoon from Syracuse NY Luke and thank you for sharing your adventures and testing equipment and sharing the facts and truth brother

Thank you for a fine review of this product. I am an 'Old Fella.' In my time, most tents leaked, including my $600. Jansport high-end tents. Most tents held condensation that was almost equal to a shower. This tent did shed a good bit of rain...and we would have been 'dry enough' inside. Perhaps shelter is a 'relative thing.'

Damn…. Your productions are exquisite. High quality photography under difficult conditions. Seamless editing. You possess a clarity in assembling your story that rivals the highest levels of the commercial film industry. Nicely done. I look forward to every video.

Wow 😮I really love this video 🤩 I never ever miss these precious videos.thank you so much from my heart ❤️ Matt.

I love this video and the rain!!! As usual Lone Wolf mountain 🏔️ s beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

I used a big canvas ridge tent for a few years in the west of England. If you understand them they are excellent . they must be proofed at the beginning of every season. you must pay attention to the tent guys when it rains. You should not touch the canvas of a tent from the inside when it is raining. It really helps to have a proper fly sheet, which must be bigger than the tent roof. The one made for the tent is best. Small canvas tents that work are rarer than hen’s teeth and very expensive( used to be made by Blacks of Greenock) I would say that a good canvas tent and fly sheet are ideal for car camping. But and it’s a serious but ! the tent must be stored dry or it will break down, only giving a short life, looked after they’ll last as you need.

After seeing the original video regarding this tent I was wondering how bad it would have leaked if it wasn't covered by a tarp. Thanks for doing that. Also you're right about canvas tents. Me personally I camp mainly in the Socal desert where rain really isn't an issue. I love my canvas

My Kodiak Canvas truck tent has yet to leak. Next time I take it out and there is a rain event, I will do a review. Old guy with a cell phone review. I had very low hopes for the Polar tent after watching your other video. It did not disappoint. Or did it? depends on which way you look at it. As always, thanks for the unbiased reviews. Stay safe and God bless.

Always enjoy your rain camping videos. Thanks, Luke

Nice video well years ago when I used to Camp with a tent until one day I was up in Ojai and it rained and rained and rained oh 6 in 2 days let me just put it this way it was the last time I used to tent ever since then I've used a truck camper a camper shell and something back of a nice warm dry truck that never leaked that always gave pretty warm. There's nothing more enjoyable than waking up in a tent in a down sleeping bag and knowing that you are now getting soaked to the bone fun .

Hey Luke great video as always I absolutely love the sound off the rain hitting your tarp and the birds singing as well.

Hey my friend luke I've been watching videos from 10 years ago recently & man I miss that intro young luke knew exactly what he was doing . /freezing rain overnight 🔥. Tks

U r Kaizen! Love that Toyota pickup…Your videos never disappoint. I’m Long time viewer and you are the most consistent channel on KZfaq, I check your reviews before buying anything.!!! You are in great shape these days, fair play…I don’t know how you continually get better with every video. You are kaizen..!!!!!

Nice to see you got some dry wood from the cabin. We all know you can do the wet wood fire, but, hey dry wood if available would be my first choice too. Brian from NZ 🇳🇿

My wife and i a few years ago bought a four season tent for about 600. It was worth every penny. We took it out and camped in heavy rain. Beyond the normal condensation, it kept us dry! Was very nice.

Hi there still watching your videos from Ontario canada love everyone one take care

Love my green elephants thanks for sharing

These rain camp/storm vids Luke makes are EPIC. Something about doing this, the cold, the wetness, the shivering, the adventcher (sic), and challenge to and with the elements, I love it. It's brutally natural and primal. How you going to make shelter, eat, sleep, etc.? No problem--bring on more rain--I can handle it!😁! I love your rainstorm/crazy weather camping vids, Luke. Keep em comin!

Hendersonville NC love your videos I buy a lot of gear on your reviews thanks

After watching all of the video you mentioned the one Tigris bulwark tarp,never leaks and not inexpensive. I believe this tarp is the one for us. Once again thanks for your informative videos.Sandra and Pete. UK

Nature is always watching ,didn't catch overall foot print four person tent fly covers all no air movement be safe Luke Peace

Actually I like ur videos for tent info and the sound of rain relaxes me.

Your weather seems to be what we're having in the UK recently, been non stop rain for weeks but still so warm and humid

Your theme song should be It's raining again by Supertramp.

I really enjoy watching your videos Luke.

I lived in Hendersonville in 92. Beautiful country

I first watched a couple of vids on this channel about four years ago and didn’t like the bloke. Thought he was wrapped up in himself. Been watching a lot of videos recently and I’ll hold my hands up , and say I was way off the mark. He really cares about the content he provides. Top man. 👍🏻

Monsters Inc. symbol on the tent.

17:10 Garmin makes a temperature sensor called the Tempe that sends realtime temperature information to the Instinct 2x Solar 👍

You need night vision brotha. Your camping experience will change forever 🙏🏼

You see Luke, companies that make tents like these don't expect to run into someone with your expertise. You have exposed their little dark I don't care just buy the product secrets. I am sure they were aware of this leakage problem but still put it on the market anyways. Money is the culprit here, not the safety of the customer. So appreciate the wisdom and knowledge God has given you in matters like these. Keep up the great work, you are helping a lot of people.

I'm glad you admitted it rains there in NC😉as if there was any question... $300 leaky tent, nope. $100+ leaky tarp, nope. Appreciate the work filming/videoing with all that moisture present, must wreck havoc on the cameras etc.. I had to laugh when you put on that jacket...Going into our fourth week of 100F+ temps with one small rain three weeks ago, relentless heat, wind and sun here. Great video, thanks for the trip.

I really liked that tent and wished you would really test it in the rain. What a shame that so little of it was exposed and it leaked in the first video. We live in Southwest Louisiana and most of the heavy rains come with wind, so we would expect to need sidewalls for tarp setups. I've been trying to figure out what we could put up to shield our carport from hurricanes, but it would need to be very sturdy. Same for the patio, which is covered. Perhaps it's better to leave both open so the wind could pass through without causing any harm to the structure. I love rainstorms and love your videos where you're in the rain and snow, etc. That window on your tent is eye-shaped like the logo.

Greetings from Clarksville, TN. We share your rainy weather and humidity. Here it rains about 120 days a year.

I use a cheap tent and cheap tarps and they are waterproof , not sure how well they would stand up to our hail storms with golf ball and bigger hail . but I can vouch for the fact they are waterproof.

I have a 10 x10 Kodiak canvas tent , the best wet weather tent out there . I have been out in torrential downpours with no issues . These tents hold up to strong winds heavy rain and dry out relatively quickly . Maybe your friends bought glamping tents that weren’t supposed to be subjected to the elements.

Love your videos. And i love thunder.

love the rain!

Love that outro Music!!!!

I was thinking instead of an eye that it could be a canoe instead of an eye in the logo? Great job as usual. Content Galore for outdoor enthusiasts of all levels of experience

Improvement on the closing music, dude! Love the videos!

Hi there hope you are well, Another great video of precipitation i just love that type of content in the rain and really pouring

Maybe the logo represents the fact that you can see the trees from the inside? There is a view hole on the top, I bet you can see the trees when laying down and you look through the little view hole.That is why their logo has a tree with an eye on it. 🤔 Loved the vid, you always put so much effort in your videos and I appreciate it a lot. Will camp soon in my garden with Eurohike Tamar 2 tent that I got cheap. It will be half exposed, half under our gazebo. Found an old sleeping bag, got a mattress, pillow and I will just do it. Thank you for the inspiration. Much love from the UK and greetings to Susie, she's awesome. ❤

People complain about rain here in South Wales UK, but this why it is so green and so fresh. They also complain about how often it rains in the Lake district, where do they think the lakes come from😂

Good information and no, I would not purchase the tent. Glad you tested.

Luke I enjoy watching your episodes, and I have watched many and you seem to be a tarp junkie. What puzzles me is why you almost never install your tent under your tarp. In my 30+ years of camping I ALWAYS install a tarp OVER my tent, for a multitude of good reasons. I understand that you are testing tents for leakage. I get it. But buy a good tarp and put it over a leaky tent and get a good night's sleep. My camping priority is a MUST...a really comfortable sleeping mattress and a warm sleeping bag. Once I buy a tent I m stuck with it. Buy a good tarp and put it over your tent. Cheers.

Great video Luke as always... Reindeer-stew one of my favorites to! You should really try the Pasta Bolognese, from same company... Thats really GOOD to ;-)

I saw a kayak in the middle of the tree on the Poler LOL.

💖💖 your camera shots! Thank you for always bringing it with awesome content & straight forward reviews, Luke!

Believe it or not but watching you eat gets me hungry. Just a thought 💭 😊

Hi Luke & Susie, wow that was some heavy rain thank GOD for Your truck as well. Thank You for continuing to teach us on setting up tents tarps how to stay dry comfortable thank you for testing the test too. I've had an experience years ago our tent water came thru. I'm learning.❤⚘⚘🤗

Hi Luke You never disappoint, thank you for your honesty.

Hi Luke. I know you love the REAL TURMAT. Did you know that you can open up the two sides in the bottom? By doing that you will get at flat bottom and it's eaiser to stir the food and awoid dry spots in the bottom. They can be a bit hard to rip apart, but there are a small hole where you can put your fingers in. Or knife if you dare... ;) Nice rain... :) Thanks for the video... Regards

Hey bud I enjoy the videos a lot I love camping when it’s raining I’ve got an old Remington 4 man dome tent it’s never leaked a drop and I bought it in the 90s but keep us informed about the gear it’s so helpful thanks

Send some of that rain to the Hill Country in Texas!! It's been around 108 & dry, dry, dry! We're even having to ration our water!

It got up to 121 degrees twice this week, so thank you for an adventure outside!

I did start dosing off, but I haven't been sleeping well lately, but great video.

Hey, Luke. your eyes are bloodshot. Glad you FEEL good, THO

My prayers for you and yours. ❤ and 🫂. We'll be here for ya. And see ya when you're back

Hey Luke. another great show. 👍👍

I bought a cook set after you described it ,the great thing about that cookware I can use it with my NuWave cook top

DUDE... During the setup I had some gnarly deja vu...😅 It's almost as if it was from my recent past...😮 like I've seen Luke totally do this before...🤣 WHOA...🤙🏻 * IllumiWoody... Bogus...👀💀

I wonder what kind of test these companies put their products through. I mean all Luke did was set it out in the rain...crazy. Thanks again Luke.

Thanks!

As far as meals go when I camp out, I carry a lot of flavored oatmeal, some instant mashed taters. I also have fresh corn straight from my in-laws farm. I shuck it and cut the corn from the cob. Also, if I have a good cooler, I will bring some meat. I have two Gas One stoves and a couple of cast iron skillets. As far as coffee goes, I have a good size percolator. Nothing better than coffee from one. I grew up with that in our home. Simple food for a simple man. Lol.

Great video! To me, that Poler logo looks like a cyclops sasquatch.

Why didn’t you setup the tarp with the dropped back wall toward where you expected the wind from instead of using a side wall?
