2025

3 years ago we made a goal to visit every public island in Hawaii (The big Island, Kauai, Maui, Molokai, Lanai and Oahu). So we spent a total of 9 weeks exploring all 6 islands. We did a lot of fishing, snorkeling, diving, beach combing, camping, hiking, and just meeting the most wonderful people.

I bought an abandoned Alaskan homestead and off-grid cabin with no water source or well. For 2 years I have been building roads, repairing buildings, fixing equipment and hauling water onto our property. For the next 3 months we are finishing some major projects and tackling our water problem.

My Family spent 2 weeks traveling Taiwan for the first time. Its a small Island packed full of culture and adventure and amazing food. We got to go shrimp fishing in Taipei and a fishing restaurant, learning about the various indigenous cultures at a survival school in Hualien, Hunting jade in a mountain river, Climbing monkey mountain in Kaohsiung, Celebrating Christmas and New Years with a bang, some unexpected trips to the Hospital and of course we ate amazing food everywhere.

I am heading into the woods of Alaska for 3 days with no sleeping bag or tent. I am going to sleep in a survival shelter, make a forge, make a charcoal kiln, make charcoal, forge and make a knife and do it all in extreme cold weather alone in the wilderness.

The Berring Sea is frozen and I am headed to Nome Alaska to Solo camp on the edge of the ice pack with my hot tent while fishing for giant king crab through the ice. I'll also be hunting for ptarmigan and looking for muskox. And later on my family will join me in Nome.

This 2 week trip to Australia WAS INSANE!!!! We ate water buffalo in an aboriginal village, swam with salt water crocodiles, caught barramundi, raced rally cars, got introduced to Australian football, landed helicopters on waterfalls, learned to throw boomerangs and play digeridoo, ate tons of lamingtons and meat pies, got to play with baby wallabies and pet kangaroos and so much more. BEST introduction to Australia ever.

I am 150 miles (241 km) North of the Arctic Circle in Alaska solo camping without a tent in -26 C/-15F. I am crossing desolate frozen tundra, sleeping in snow caves, hunting ptarmigan and caribou and visiting isolated Alaskan communities.

In this episode Luke announces that he is going to step away from YouTube. The amount of work and challenges with people recognizing him and his family are getting overwhelming. Tommy's channel, Outdoor Tom, will continue. Luke made the choice to spend more time with his family and help raise his boys to be good members of society. He mentioned he has several videos in the pipeline or half done that he will release all in one batch at the end of the year. For the foreseeable future, this is the end of the channel. Sad day...We will miss you, Luke.

Me and my 3 boys got dropped off by float plane in Alaska's remote wilderness and we are camping without a tent for 3 days fishing, hiking and rafting Twin Lakes in Lake Clark National Park (Home of the original bushcraft VLOGGER - Dick Proenneke)

For 3 yeas I have wanted to find a set of walrus tusks and this time its finally happening. I am flying to a remote part of western Alaska on the shores of the Bering Sea where I will be camping alone in bear country, hiking, beach combing, searching for shed caribou antlers and hunting for dead walrus ivory.

Join me for the entire summer, working on my off-grid Alaskan homestead. I am building a blacksmithing forge, building roads, fixing equipment and preparing for winter.
