you seem like such a gnarly dude to grab some grub with. definitely inspired me and the wife to plan everything out before our apartment lease ends. spending over 1,000 dollars a month just watching it sit in our account and then given away really disgusts us. this will give us ALOT more time to do content and other thingd weve been wanting to do. subscribed! be safe

I love hearing this! I still currently love this lifestyle, it's not for everyone but the people that do enjoy it really embrace it. I posted a video a few weeks ago vans vs truck camper's if you're interested in the two. I'm currently in a truck with slide in camper which I love, they both have the pro's and con's. But whatever you end up doing will be great! Cheers

Great looking camper. I could definitely live in one like that. One plus I like is if the engine dies you can replace it and not the whole Motorhome. Love to see it update or redone. Maybe needs some pop out colours. Happy trails.❤️⛺️🇨🇦🦊

How do you like those Up Laces? I was thinking of giving the TC Pros and break to get resoled and buying a pair too!
@AndyOnTheMountain 25 күн бұрын
I gave up my Tc pros after using them for years… The new ones don’t fit my feet. The Up Lace was a random try and man do I love them. They are my “trad dad” shoe so I got them in my street shoe size. I love them with a pair of socks. 🧦 check them out, great for edging, smearing and cracks. Cheers

MSR tents are of no use in 60mph plus winter storm conditions, they will fail. The go to tent for being bombproof has to be KUIU Storm Star, it will take anything thrown at it! Too many videos showing MSR tents failing in real winter storm conditions (Hilleberg Soulo BL are flappy but rock solid as well, steep price). Your life is important don't trust MSR when the sheet hits the fan. The Storm Star has the inner attached, which means in serious wind and rain, the inner stays completely protected when erecting, stays dry for you when erected!

Thanks for the comment. Luckily I’m not camping at 8,000 meters. I hiked 2,650 miles of the PCT with the MSR Hubba Hubba which is not even 4 season and it crushed anything that was thrown at it including winds 50 mph +. Luckily in the alpine with this tent I would build up a wall of snow around the tent if needed. But like I said in the video, this is not a tent for huge summits. It’s kind of between a 3 season and 4 season tent. Cheers!

@AndyOnTheMountain Ай бұрын
Thanks for checking out the video. I have to say the Berkey has been amazing living in the camper full time. If we are next to a river we will even fill up the Berkey with river water and drink it once it’s filtered. Absolutely delicious! Cheers!

Off note, which jacket would you take on a through hike of the PCT? Patagonia Das Parka or Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisper UL? Thanks in advance for your time 🤙🏽
@AndyOnTheMountain Ай бұрын
Great question, if you’re talking about the Das (parka) and not the Das (Light) I would definitely 100% suggest the MH Ghost Whisper. The Parka is way too bulky and warm. But if you are talking about the Das Light vs MH Ghost Whisper… I would say they are both phenomenal and whichever one you can find cheaper would be my pick. I hope this helps.

@@expatadventureturkey9324 That’s going to be a great layering/ warm system. When I hiked the PCT I used a Patagonia Nano air synthetic but that’s only because I didn’t want to buy another jacket.

I watched just to see what routes were included. Yosemite is a N.A Mecca with easily 100, if not 100's of climbs at 5.8 or under. I feel so fortunate to have made my first of dozens of a pilgrimage in 78. The fact that you can climb 'down valley' at Arch and the Cookie on a sunny winter day, be in the Valley proper in May, Tuolumne for June, July and August and back to the valley for September and October is just amazing ! A complete wonderland for the new comer, a Disneyland for the seasoned and zoo for the veterans. A mistake so many climbers make is to say "I am not good enough to go to the Valley yet" (fallacy). If you climb all summer at a small local crag, you will get way better after two months in the Valley than two full seasons at your local crag. Literally 100's of routes under 5.10a and a 5.8 climber can usually progress to moderate ten's (opening up 1000's of potential classics) in a month or two :)
@AndyOnTheMountain Ай бұрын
Thanks for commenting - Also you having the opportunity to climb in the valley in the 70’s, very cool. I’m sure it’s changed a bit (more crowded, better gear, easier information on the routes). This was my first time climbing in Yosemite and boy was I a bit intimidated - especially when we climbed some of the base routes off El Cap, staring up at thousands of feet of perfect granite. I definitely felt the 5.7 in the valley was way more difficult then a 5.7 up in Tuolumne. I can’t wait to go back (headed there this weekend). Yosemite is a special place! Thanks for your comment Gilray. Cheers

Hey man, just curious why not using the inner over your bivy + dcf ground sheet. Volume and weight I think would be almost the same and you have more comfort with the inner. Not sure if I’m correct though.
@AndyOnTheMountain 2 ай бұрын
Great question Peter. I did't purchase the inner net mostly because I'm trying to use gear I already have. I also like having a modular shelter. The bivy provides extra wind protection when above tree line compared to the inner net which it does not. Lastly when the weather is nice I don't have to set up the tent, I can slide right into my bivy which is super quick. Cheers

Does the dyneema material from this shelter absorb the odor from flatulence at the same ratio as standard nylon sil shelters? In my experience, nylon sil shelters have to be thrown away after approximately 62 dehydrated meals consumed on backcountry trips. Henceforth, solo trekkers can get a full 62 nights under a shelter, while couples typically only get 31 nights under the shelter before the shelter must be thrown away for potential safety concerns. The absorbed methane into the fabrics and materials of shelters from backcountry meal induced flatulence is a serious hazard that is rarely talked about in outdoor community. One morning, you may go to light up your stove and the entire shelter explodes and kills everyone in the immediate vicinity. I presume that this is the number 2 cause of forest fires in the western U.S. just behind lighting strikes? If the shelter is setup up in windy areas, sometimes the life expectancy of the shelter may be increased passed the 62 meal quota, but exact windspeed to meal ratios are still being calculated and are debated by the scientific and research community. Based off of the weave structure of the dyneema, and the naturally hydophobic nature of the fabric, I would estimate that this structure may make it passed the highly sought after 200 dehydrated meal quota before it must be decommissioned. Without proper field studies performed that limit the extraneous variables in the experiments, it would be hard to come up with an exact calculation to verify my estimated 200 meal quota hypothesis on this structure. Do you have an educated hypothesis on this matter based off of your ample field experience with this shelter?
@AndyOnTheMountain 3 ай бұрын
Hi, my hypothesis based off the experience with this shelter is to live a little Timmy! Also what about Ramen dinners? Or maybe I bring a sandwich and don't eat dehydrated. Now that's going to change the whole systematic approach to this. Lot's of variables and so many farts to be had. Enjoy those smelly nights. :)
