Hi, Kathleen! Thanks for your Winter Hiking video! I had no idea wag bags existed. Absolutely essential but of gear. Ditto for the toe warmers. I’ve been negligent in following your videos so I didn’t know you had moved to MT, a beautiful state. Keep that bear spray handy. Have great adventures, kiddo!
Layers with zippers have been really handy for me this winter. I get hot really quickly, especially when I’m going uphill, and being able to vent helps a lot. Then, as soon as I start to feel comfortable again, I can just zip back up, without having to stop constantly to take a layer off or put one back on.
You mentioned everything I take, plus a little more. I really appreciate a having a reflective sit pad to sit on in snow. Keeps me dry and warm. Also love my wool neck gaiter.
Excellent video!
Subscribed! Thanks for all the great tips
battery charger as I find my cell phone/electronics can loose battery faster in the cold. Look forward to a video on shoulder season hiking when its a muddy mooshy mess out there! Keep on truckin’!
I’ve found Peanut butter cups work great for extreme cold weather snacks. Typical bars and candy freeze into hard rocks after a while.
What brand of liner gloves do you use
For those of you who have already been out hiking this winter, I want to know what’s one piece of winter hiking gear you can’t hike without? Tell me down in the comments below!
One thing I learned in extremely low temperatures (minus 5-10 F) is that some of your equipment (stoves & water filters) will fail in these extremes.
I love your green dress. They were out of my size, but I picked me up the orange version. 😀
I like to bring a cook kit, hot drinks and food can really help out when it’s cold.
