Now let’s try it on K2

song choice on par 😂

I recently learned this type of decent is called glissading. TMYK.

Nice 😂

I have the same hammock along with their straps. It comes in at about 8 oz total if you get their straps. I use it for the same use case since I tarp camp. But I find that it's only useful in the warmer weather. Otherwise a chair or butt pad win out for their ability to hang out near the fire. I used mine last weekend along the AT and it was definitely one of my favorite luxury items on that trip. Also use a butt pad but switched to an MLD 1/8 pad that's similar to the GG pad. It's more versatile than the simple butt pads since it can go under your sleep pad for protection and or grip, above for extra insulation, or used as a backup. I even wrapped mine around my legs on a cold weather trip one time so I guess add blanket to the list. The ones like yours do work better for fire bellows though. Also a S2S pillow user, just the UL version. It's a must for me now since it makes such a huge difference in comfort while sleeping. Sometimes I'll bring camp shoes. Most often my 4mm sandals, but Crocs are great if there will be a lot of water crossings. They are heavy and bulky though. My other luxury items are an axe, unusual but I enjoy it. And sometimes a fishing setup if there will be opportunities on the specific trip.

My luxury item is a REI Flex Lite chair, but now that I see your 6oz hammock, I may get one to replace the chair!

Luxury item I’ve axed with prejudice- a flask: heavy; turns out alcohol is not helpful with either adjusting to elevation or recovering after a long hike; and while I thought I was cool with it in my 20s, I need to focus on focus on physical recovery and having a clear head if something goes sideways in the middle of the night. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the content! Love it

I see people having all kinds of trouble throwing that rock bag where they want it. What I do is use my hiking stick as a catapult. Tie a loop at end of string that just fits over end of hiking stick, rock bag is 8 inches down from loop, then rest of the line. Swing stick and stop just before straight up, the rock bag catapults off the hiking stick, catapult gives more power & directional control.

We have the same stove! My ignitor switch still works after 14 trips

We need to bring the term Wild Camping to the US! Sounds cooler than dispersed camping

Thanks for the shoutout! I actually only learned recently that “wild camping” wasn’t an international term. It’s actually fairly recent here too, it’s become mainstream just over the last 3-5years. I first heard it about 4years ago. I think it might actually be why a lot of camping content here doesn’t get a ton of US viewers.

A “diddy bag” would be something very different in Northern Ireland 😂 🙈

Nice video! I went to Oregon for the first time in 2023. We went to Mt. Hood. I would love to go back and do some backpacking there.

I'm captivated by the sense of immersion this video provides. It feels incredibly authentic and puts nature on center stage! Always good if you know your limits otherwise death is lurking around the corner ;)

Camping continued: if the sites are reservable, don’t play stupid and try to steal the site, even if it’s late and you think it’s empty. 1) you didn’t pay for it and 2) some of us have jobs and can’t get out there until after work.

I love this, it's so funny because you have a tiny apex predator behind you the whole time... It's a shame people don't understand that house cats are bad for the environment

Last time I checked, a banana peel is 100% biodegradable.

10:23, bigfoot

I'm not a hiker but I totally get every one of your points. People are annoying in any setting. Different scenes, same disrespectful behaviour..... Loved your delivery!

Trail nazi wow!!!

#1 KZbin etiquette is to divide and title each subject on on the progress-bar. Since you failed to show proper etiquette, your vid was deemed unwatchable. Sorry (not sorry).

Great vid.... I've observed all of these rules broken lol. Sad, but might need to add a rule about leaving the drones at home. Two times, I've seen ppl on trails with drones and had a fit. Never understood the uphill right-of-way, but I accept it.

Dont toss it save it for the zombie apocolypse

We love the breakfast skillet. We buy it in #10 can.

Mix the salsa powder in with the eggs before adding the water and let them reconstitute together.

Other than the scrambled eggs and the breakfast skillet, I love Mountain House. Their biscuits and gravy, and Chicken and dumplings are awesome.

The only ways these are palatable is in limited amounts being way in the background of a meal as a filler, eg in a burrito with spicy sausage or compressed and fried in oil and eaten with rice . Totally not worth buying either way

I shake them well and when done 30 minutes !!! then the are ok all of there meals i l;et sit for 30 Minutes.

No.

DON'T GO UP TO THE MOUNTAIN TOP WITHOUT ME (C)2006 @jamesmonahan1870

Fantastic ambience my friend! This looks great 👏👏

What a beautiful upload man! Navigation is truly important!

Nice video

your house is visible in the back ground

Beautiful 🤩 & be careful

Incorrect!!! Derek says you can use a pinecone. I'm not buying it. :) Thanks for the shout-out Chris. And nice to meet you...virtually. PS-Everybody loves this topic whether they want to admit it or not.

Great video!
