SOLO CAMPING IN HEAVY LIGHTNING & THUNDERSTORM. Scariest Arctic RAIN Backpacking of my life!



3 days Arctic Solo Camping in a Heavy Rain, Lightning, Thunderstorm & Heavy Wind, Scariest Storm Camping experience of my life! ASMR and Rain Sounds.

The closest town measured an all time record for rainfall with 36.4 mm in one hour, which is an all time high record for the northern half of the country. This happened sometime around my dinner.

This was my scariest storm camping experience so far. I was above the polar circle in the arctic at 70.5° North, alone 35 km into the wilderness, when one of the most brutal thunder and lightning storms I have ever experienced hit me. It lastet for over 12 hours and had some of the most scary thunder and lightning I have seen. It felt like I was getting hit right on the head. I did manage to capture some great footage of the lightning though. This is the furthest north and most remote place I have ever backpacked in a very wild and cool area. I obviously survived so enjoy the storm!

Contains elements of AMSR

70.5°north
560km/349miles north of the polar circle

Roughly as far north as:

Wainwright – Alaska
Ulukhatok – Canada
Wrangel Island – Russia

550km/342miles further north than Iceland

Wow! That was some storm. I’ll never complain again when I get caught in a rain storm in the Sierra. I was worried for you. Your videos are nothing short of amazing. Thanks for taking us with you.

…..!!!!!!…..?…. Yalnız kampa gittiğinde ayı veya kurt gibi vahşi yırtıcı hayvanla karşılaştınmı.?. Karşılaştıysan ne gibi nasıl tedbir alıyorsun. Kendini nasıl koruyorsun… Kampta yakınlarına yıldırım şimşek düştümü.

I'm just glad u didn't blow away.however the rain on the tent made me sleepy sorry u couldn't sleep..

F. Norman

Impressive country!… but why no proper rain fly for your tent?

Michael

Greetings from Australia, absolutely stunning and that was one nice storm you had to endure 😣

joe Z

Glad you’re ok, was the hilleberg leaking through the material???
I know there’s not much to do about the zipper??? I was just about to “try” to get one….

Stephen -Truth Seeker

I was homeless for 3 years half that time was spent in a tent in all weathers.

Jice Doc

What tent did you use sir?

Mehdi

Why your tent doesn't have a floor?

Alice Hatfield

I live in the US that is some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen

Sunny Dey

Why are you drinking unfiltered river water? Be careful!!

Bobby West

Bad ass man

Santoni Geek

rainy camping is always my favorite especially with thunder, feels like not alone

Neil H Francis

Where did the tent fail? It looked like the zip area. Strange how people buy “rain on tent” sounds to sleep by at home yet you could not in real life. Was this the Varanger Regional Park?

omah petualang

Amazing…👍👍

Outdoor Cinema

I'm sorry for your problems with a tent and leaking… Hope that this adventure did not leave a bitter taste for you. Great movie and I wish you all the best in the future adventures!

Love the film. Gives a great impression of how it feels. Late August ? Good that you had the soulo. This year in the Padjelanta/sarek region I mistakenly took my zpack duplex. There was very strong wind and rain and it started leaking for the first time- on the side tie outs. After I left the forecast looked bad, maybe its what you had. How long were you rained in?

Coniferous Forests

Are you planning on going back to US and film some bad-ass epic videos with your and our wild friend Joey ? =D

Mary Harris

Love camping in a tent in the rain, but not when it’s to cold.

R & G Survival

im at 53.2 N, love your scenery there

This one good video of rain camping,Just fantastic,Give us more of this please,

Rosie Bateson

You must have been thoroughly miserable stuck in the tent all that time ☹️ but you pitched it so well, it was barely moving. Absolutely brilliant video. Thank you so much for sharing, I’ve subscribed ♥️👍

tom lorenzen

Have a Cabela's Alaskan Guide tent, 4 man. I know it's too heavy for what you do, but it is the most solid tent that I have owned. No leaks, withstands wind. It's awesome, as is your video. Thanks!

B Blair

Sound-wise that is ELITE

Cynthia M Gentles

Best camp with a portable electric bear fence. 2.4 lbs for huge peace of mind

I'm so afraid of thunderstorms in the mountains, respect to you.

Butch Lewis

The only good thing i can say about those storms is, they are now a just a memory! Makes it so uncomfortable, and all night long…..I dont know cuss words that adequately describe a leaking tent. lol. Sorry to say i enjoyed watching?? lol. Wishing you dry travels moving forward. Thats better. haha

Sebastian wh%px2

This is by far the best rainstorm camping video i have ever watched. Thank you for the content. Sorry about your situation but if it was me i would've been sleeping like a baby 24/7

Johannes K

I use the same set-up you did in this video, Hyperlite, Soulo, Thermarest and i got called an amature on my last hike 🙂 The Soulo did a great job!

Maza Tiar Me'Osaka

Saya sangat menyukai berkemah di tepi sungai kecil ,pemandangan yang indah ,suara hujan yang baik untuk teman tidur

This is amazing, nothing better than mother nature showing its powers 🙂

Adventures with Sog (GTR)
