what about this one
Stove? Fuel? Cookpot?
No wrspon
I use less for 4000 miles. Whimp!
Wow , just a 1000 miles? The A.T is much longer than that … I’ve hiked it
You said it wrong :😐
no hot food or clean teeth for 1000 miles is certainly a choice o_o
No hand sanitizer?
I would at least carry a headlamp, and a toothbrush. Not to mention, stove, pot, spoon, and maybe some kind of first aid kit?
Wow
… how about the other 1190 miles
do u eat, or just fast ?
No headlamp?
Where’s the COFFEEEEEE????
Ima walk it with a pistol and not much more one day
LOL smart water.
Food????
LOL your a liar
So I started making a list of items I’d bring on a thru hike. Would you really not bring a toothbrush, paste, floss?? I’m not going 1000 miles without that. The weight is almost negligible.
so no food the entire 1000 miles?
Definitely my #1 bucket list item. One day…
No cooking equipment?
How is that enough water?
This way, you have to stop a lot to fill up on water with the tablets.
Always put your electronics outside the bag; they love rain and moisture.
No cook system or cold soak container?
I am really impressed by this ultralight setup. I am still struggling to shave the pounds off.
Maybe you’ve already answered this one but , is your phone your main navigation device and how long does it last you with one small powerbank ? Do you stay overnight at every resupply town to charge all the gear or how does it work.
Maybe my phone battery sucks but i have to charge it everyday and have to carry a ton of powerbanks to stay self sufficient on multi day hikes.
Thanks a ton for sharing your experience and your setup.
Seems like a decent gear haul! I love these kinds of video! Good one.
Minimum half my pack is filled with food!
Especially 1st couple days I’m fresh & strong to carry the load so I’m eating goood! This mofo eating like a hobo or homeless man. 😅
No stove?
What brand of pack is that? I have a similar UL setup, but my pack looks much bigger, and weighs 12lbs before food and water. You mention electronics; does that include power bank? And no cookware… that would really lighten my load, but how did you cope with no coffee? Did you have any Ktape or moleskin?
No cooking?
you can ditch the trowel if you just find a rock to lift up, then shit in the hole and place the rock back. You can also ditch the smart bottle, and drink straight out of the filter. Bring a knife and make the tent pole and stakes from sticks. and you can ditch the pillow and just use clothes in a bag, then put a shirt around the bag.
Can save you some grams xD
How prevalent would you say Lymes disease is on the trail? Its my only worry of going this year 😂
What is a smart water bottle
Soap? First aid? No? Good luck when it all goes wrong
Where’s Your, GUN.?!
Wandering About Bear, Country, Without Bear Spray, &, Or, A Gun.!
Not Even A Jam-Jar, To Refill, With "Moonshine", I Think, Your Lying.!
👆🙄🤔🏆👏👌
How did you get by carrying such little water?! I needed 3-4 L between water sources when things were a little dry.
7.25 lbs is 3.288 kg
Bro mi backpack weights more than ypu whole setup
Are you just free balling or what
1975 did the PCT Canada to Mexico no cell phone, no water filter gizmo, made it just fine with a Kelly pack
Why do these ultralite backpackers look so sickly?
Scary that you dont have a first aid kit
No knife or multi tool, no first aid kit, no hand sanitizer, no cook kit, no light of any kind, no compass or map, and no lighter. I get being ultra light and trust me I try to get the best gear so my pack weighs nothing. Ur you can’t sacrifice your life for a couple of pounds
So you are literally one small cut away from bleeding out, away from civilization with no way to stop it. Got it.
Of course it’s easy going on empty stomach!

Knife cooking stuff and first aide kit bear spray for animals
Total crap. No fire starter, No real food. Only athletic shoes? No way you made 1000 miles with a Walmart pack and gear. You are full of fertilizer!!!
So simple! I appreciate you sharing and the weight
Well done. ✌🏼
