I went counterclockwise on this trail as well. This wasn't my favorite trail due to being on the north side of the trail with the sun on the south. I bet going clockwise would be a whole different experience.

Good tips dude ✌🏻

Thanks to your video, I've just checked out that Etsy store. I'm blown away by the prices.

Lovely video. Well done!

She atole my line. Fungi

I told a friend and she shared ypur Chanel. I also subscribeed. Like the video going to watch them all in a while

Great info

How did the 40* loft up?

I added a secondary suspension to my heat retention set easily. Little cord and a few bits and bobs.

Great info

I agree totally!!

Excellent video, have an awesome time, new friend here.

Looks like a good setup dude and Gus looks chilled AF lol.

MSR Whisperlite will get you through virtually any below zero temperatures with no problem. Little extra weight and it's noisy as an F16 and you won't be simmering with it very well, but it's bombproof and will work reliably in winter conditions.

I am impatiently waiting for my Warbonnet order, which will include a Thunderfly. I also opted for blue. I don't think the ridgeline comes seam sealed, does it? Also I thought they came with loops for side pullouts...?

Do you always camp with a hammock or do you pack a tent on other trips?

What a nice backpacking trip! Loved this video and the editing :)

I caught the plague while on vacation and watching this was the best medicine.

Here is me again, the critique guy. Really... I don't want to be an ass, I just want you to succeed. But buy a cheap lavalier mic. Your sound is way to soft in this video. Can't wait for your next video tho. Keep it up! Edit: re-upload this video with a voice over for the mean time. It costs you nothing but is better for us the viewer. Audio always before video. The viewer can tolerate poor image quality. But not poor audio quality. Much love <3

And your friend is outside in the " TENT " ? Later !!!!!!!!

I’m happy for you guys. It’s nice to see what a used camper looks like and what will need to be done. Thanks for the info. Most folks have all of their stuff in place. It all looks so easy. I’m interested in what you will have to do, in the way of upgrades.

I have been leaning in the camper direction lately. I think my days of long-distance backpacking, canoeing, kayaking and biking days are likely past me, so trailer camping has come up in conversations more and more with my girlfriend lately. Also, hope you had a great Christmas.

Liked and subscribed! Just a tip. The text on your thumbnail is not readable. Either use an other font and colour. Or just don't use text at all and just go for an image still of the scenery. Keep it up buddy!

Great video! I’m working on one of my hiking videos and this just makes me wanna stop and head out to the trail. Well done.

What a unique scenery my friend, this looks brilliant! 👏👏👏

Good to see you back out doing your thing.

Welcome to the good stuff. My mini fly has lots of trips on it, still perfect. Edit; I use 3/16 shock cord loops on the D rings, then my tie out lines to the stake. Cheers on your new tarp.

Did you hike the trail clockwise?

I have the same underquilt and matching topquilt but in olive green.

LOL!!!!! I 100% AGREE!!!!!!

I also like Packit Gourmet, a Texas company that makes surprisingly good backpacking meals. A bit more expensive than most but worth it once in a while..

Nice trip. I thought the whitetail was going to come up and let you pet it for a moment.

Nice and simple kit

Make an account for your channel name. Was hard to search you. Lots of room to improve, but honestly this is fine to leave as is. If you are ok with hassle, look into smaller tree straps (maybe kevlar?) and whoopie slings. Bamboo brush may save weight. Loose first aid bag and maybe cut down stuff inside. Loose some stuff sacks? Replace ground sheet with your sit pad when you get out or hang stuff at foot or head end of hammock OR polycro ground sheet instead. Sometimes use sit pad as underquilt for higher temps. Thru hikers really cut down extra stuff, and I'm not there myself, but consider less things. 100% on a sit pad, love em. Try to little stuff on a short trip, then add back what you missed.

You could probably lose a few ounces by replacing the compass with a lighter plastic one but that would be negligible really. A 750ml titanium pot should be just about all you need for backpacking, and you could shave a few ounces there. You could easily save a pound by replacing the hammock and the probably a bit more by replacing the tarp. A Dutchware halfwit is really light and my Hammock Gear Circadian is 23 ounces which isn't shabby. In reality though you are young and can easily carry 20 pounds with little or no problem, so shaving ounces with high dollar gear might not be super important. The one thing I would recommend getting is a CNOC water bag. It's super easy to fill and with a bit of clear pvc water line you can turn your Sawyer filter into a gravity filter. There are several videos on KZbin that shows you how to rig it so it works. Then you can let gravity filter your water as you set up camp. Again, not a necessity but it makes life a bit easier.

I've heard of Hang Tight but I believe this is the first review I've seen of their gear. Now I'd like to see a review of the quilts after you've used them a few times, especially after you push the temp rating a bit. Looking forward to more videos.
