Not convinced you βneedβ a good chunk of this stuff, respectfully.
why is the front pocket of your pack on the back?
Where have you bought the antigravity spoon?
In my opinion the extra space is worth it to take toilet paper instead of wiping my but with a reusable towel but thats just me i guess
then there’s me, that when i go for the weekend at my friend’s house i get a suitcase.
Excellent video but very expensive products
Cool style. Thank you for sharing! And all those toys! Thanx again. (Kinda’ like a movie ticket or rock concert experience.)
hi j, what was your red first aid kit -bag in the pic?
food
I hate all your gear because I can’t afford it. Kidding that tent is on my 2 buy list
even the lighter is blue that’s dedication
The bidee setup is a pro moveπ€
good points and tips… but i am curious as to where you store your filming gear( i didnt see a pocket or attachment and no hip belt) and food( with a a quilt, tent and the other stuff inside the 40L pack). how much would the filming gear weight add?
Nice vid!
Most of the ‘experienced hikers’ I see with YouTube channels tend to give me the impression that they’ve got even less experience than I do. It’s obvious that you’ve actually done the miles and honed your equipment to suit you. Thanks for some excellent tips.
Its videos like these that can be dangerous. This gear is enough to get you by as long as. Which is the area i work in.
I don’t understand why many hikers (usually ultralight hikers) don’t plan for bad events.
When you look at the amount of rescue and injured hikers has definitely increased. How many could have been saved with a bit of skills.
Learning fire skills instead of depending on gas stoves. Land navigation. Paper maps.
Really how much weight is a saw a knife, ferro rod, an a compass.
Every kit should start with those 4 things.
Now most trails are not fr from civilization but Midwest can be extremely dangerous. Not just the land but the animals. On the east coast 2 leg animals are the problem but north and mdwest then bear spray.
Of course what do i know only years training and being part of Ranger school. The difference between Dave Canterbury and me is my military experience isn’t made up. Lol.
Have you ever tried decathlon air pads?
He Uses Water Bottles for Water…The Tent Impressive…
Thatβs the toothbrush they give you in jail/prison. Itβs called a non shank toothbrush
"that it can’t get anywhere else on the internet". A load of garbage. All those items are available elsewhere. Trying to sponsor products using lies is an immediate "go elsewhere" viewing decision.
Dude are you eating anything?
Tent stakes are too heavy and often not usable. I made pads from tarp material with a hole on which I put rocks or bags of sand.
Lightweight gear often has bright colors and that doesn’t make much sense when I go stealthcamping, so I can’t really use it in my adventures
That is an inmate toothbrush brother
I liked the culoclean tool, π
Fun fact 2:36 in italian culo means ass, they nail it ππ
Thx Justin, Δ± will hit the road too. I also got a channel. Have a great time.
Can’t get behind a tiny 1 person tent. Got to have 25 square feet inside so I can keep some gear at hand and not be against the walls. That also makes room side-to-side for my wide rectangular pad. Love the Trekology pillow. I add a 2 ounce DIY down/feather pillow on top. It adds warmth and a LOT of comfort. Don’t like titanium spoons. Expensive and they tend to have shallow bowls. I have used a Walmart Ozark Trail long spoon. Less than a dollar but out of stock. Looking for an alternative since I left mine at tha bottom of Linville Gorge. Might do a video for my channel (Tom Loves DIY) about cheap, lighweight spoons. Have to agree about Decathalon down jacket. Great value and decent weight to warnth ratio. Thanks for another great video.
$600 for a tent that doesn’t even include a groundsheet is absolutely mental. And $100 extra for the groundsheet. Utter insanity.
Very good – thank you. A number of useful tips I shall incorporate on the Camino de Santiago.
Got the name of the pants youβre wearing? Look mad comfy.
Justin is by far one of the foremost experts on ultralight hiking. I have been watching his videos for a short time but it’s very obvious he far more experienced than many others. Thanks for the knowledge you’re passing along!
Great video Justin and I have recently adopted many of your suggestions here. This year I’ve ordered a lot of stuff from Garage Grown Gear to get lighter in my load and can say I’m a very happy customer. The only thing I don’t use is the (free) tiny toothbrush they sent. I prefer a GUM travel toothbrush that weighs a few more grams but has a longer handle.
This is more advertising than informative.
Can you please make an affordable light hiking setup, not just toaks and thermarest, 600 dollar tent, etc….for the casual hikers.
Nice video, everything is there !
Is a 40 ltr bag not overkill when travelling so light/sparse?
What trekking pole are you using?
You should put the price next to the items, I’m interested in a tent like that. Nothing more annoying when you’re hiking and have a tent where it feels like you’re building a house, lol. Awesome stuff man, subscribed π€
I’m pondering a long trip that’ll have re-supply, but no zero days off-trail. Most ultralight hikers don’t bother with extra clothing besides thermal layers. I wonder what you”d do if you went out for 20+ days? Even merino starts to smell after a week of hard hiking. Would you bring extra cloths, wash your outfit, or just smell?
The only thing I could afford is the pillow
Respect! Your gear still seems new after 200 days, it’s like it was never used…π€
What do you do with the soap? Do you rinse it off in the stream? That doesn’t seem right…
No knife. #lostallcredibility
thats a very interesting setup, definitely a few things i could take away from this video. I’ve got an old veshmeshok rucksack, here’s what i’ve got in it:
2-person Tent, weighs 6 pounds
Wool Blanket
Trench Shovel
4 Pairs of Socks & Underwear
2 Tan T-Shirts
1 Pair of Shorts
Plastic Bags
Towel
Gloves
2 MREs
-Frogtogg Sack
Tinder
Matches
Wetnaps
Napkins
4 Sets of Dinnerware
2 D-Batteries
Toiletpaper
Sewing Kit + Duct Tape
Fishing Line
Paracord Bracelet
Can Opener
Rocketstove
-Black Hygiene Bag
Foot Powder
Bug Repellent
Bar Soap
-First Aid Kit
Gloves
Napkins
Gauze
Bandaids
Afterbite
Antibiotic Ointment
Ace Bandage
Hand Sanitizer
Rubbing Alcohol
Hydrocortisone
Alergy Meds
Angled Flashlight
20 Rounds of ammo
Small Pot
I’ve got the tent, poles, and blanket strapped on top of the rucksack, and I use the handles of the pot and shovel to keep them in place. I use the bag’s draw string to cinch the pot handle and shovel handle together, and I use two spare belts to cinch the tent onto the blanket, which is strapped down in a horseshoe shape on the sides and top of the bag. I plan to add a lifestraw to my bag when it delivers, but for now I’m using a stainless steel canteen with a sling pouch. Because the bag has no definite shape, I have to pack everything in a certain manner to give it shape. I use the mres, frogtogg sack, and rocket stove to give the back a more square shape so that it will sit closer to my back, then I pack my hygiene and first aid kit in the small space between all that, with my ammo, pot, and light on top, and my spare clothes and towel underneath it. The shovel packs into a pouch that’s on the outside of the bag, and the pot handle stick out of the knot that I tie. All together it weights about 30 pounds. The sack has thin straps that leave welts on your shoulders or collar bones, but they aren’t too bad. Mine comes with a chest strap which comes in handy. When I sleep, I’ll place a bunch of grass underneath the spot in the tent I’ll sleep in and Ill use my rucksack as a pillow. I hiked about 6 miles with this on one time to my camping spot and other than for a couple light welts, everything was fine.
I have never encountered a more relatable hiker when it comes to poop hygiene π₯π₯π₯
Would you ever consider using a bivy sack as a sleep system?
Appreciate the clean butt concerns you have, I’m in the same boat picking up all the gear you recommend
why do all hikers have the same voice, sounds like a lady accent, grew up in a bigger city enviroment , hits 21 and decides to go live in the bush, becomes entirely too concerned about everything except what matters , also becomes more knowledgeable than bear grills.
Hopefully you know that that compass is probably not accurate. Iβd cut off the stainless ring if I were you.
Also What is the lowest temperature can you comfortably camp at?
