Rei garage sale , some time I can find brand new shoes for 1/2 off

[@pdvision2194]

Would you be open to gear donations that won't cut into the 1k budget?

[@QuadzillaHikes]

@@pdvision2194 I don't think I really need anything in terms of gear at this point, appreciate it though

[@thomgizziz]

@@pdvision2194 He isn't including his gear in that budget... he isn't the most straight up truthful youtuber i have ever seen. He is also going to "hike" the whole thing because apparently hitchhiking counts as walking now.

[@pdvision2194]

@@thomgizziz Most thru hikers hitch a ride into town to resupply. I did the same when I hiked the AT. And besides all that.....HYOH!

[@brucybruce]

On July 10th, 2022 I was section hiking the CA section L of the PCT Nobo. That morning you said hi as you flew by me like I was almost standing still and I envision a lot of AT thru hikers will get a similar experience this summer. Ever since then I have been following you off and on and you continue to inspire me to seek outside and stay healthy and active.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Haha ah wow good memory. Thanks for following along and absolutely keep getting out there :)

[@970zfinest]

it might be cheap gear but it's a breath of fresh air a youtuber using gear that most people can afford without a 3rd job most youtubers try to pedestal the most expensive up to date modern gear.

[@CheapCharlieChronicles]

This should be an incredible challenge, trying to do the whole trail for $1,000. Look forward to following it.

[@susietopspin]

This is going to be an epic hike to follow. Happy trails.🤘🏻🥾⛰️

[@hoser7706]

Such an exciting undertaking! As colossal as your previous journeys looking forward to the updates and progress.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thanks for the nice comment :)

[@SlickMaximus]

@@QuadzillaHikes - I watched your calendar year triple crown hike video and appreciate the vicarious nose to the grindstone stamina. During upcoming AT hike you could give examples how that tenacity benefited other parts of your life.

[@DonnaWinter]

I'm super stoked to follow this experiment! We all don't even question, "Can he complete the hike?" I was thinking, "Maybe he's going for the FTK!" ...if you did that with this gear, on that budget, wowza 😆 The BRS will serve you well, mine's still going after 5 years. Curious about the sleeping pad. My friend got one thinking it a steal and it compressed to nothing by day 4 or 5. Hoping you have better luck with yours. Bring on the adventure!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I have a feeling that pad might do the same haha, it doesn't feel very foamy. We'll see!

[@Djhikes63]

I'm excited to follow and see how it goes. I appreciate you doing this. Good luck!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thank you!

[@venkatinator]

Really excited to see this journey and gear review. My Lanshan2 has been amazing so I’m keen to see if your other 3F UL gear is great too. I mean, it would change the game. We’d all start buying it if you legit had a good experience on such a hardcore through hike. Love your content. Good luck and stay safe.

[@AMCD18]

Can’t wait to follow! Best of luck Jack 🥾🥾

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thank you!

[@charlieragland8295]

Really stoked to see this. Clearly i hope nothing fails and you're safe, but this experiment opens the gates for a lot more people. Cheers.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

See ya out there!

[@HenrySylvester01]

This is amazing!! Hiker boxes will definitely come in clutch!

[@db.mc2]

Have a safe hike Jack 👊🏻👍🏻 God Bless 🙏🏻Appreciate you my friend !

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thanks, you too!

[@brentperron6914]

So excited how the gear holds up! We need more reasonably priced gear recs! I also have the sleeping bag and it lofts up a lot more after its been out a bit. Ps I love the pot! Used an aluminum one for years and they're so much better to actually cook in compared to the cups that seem to be all the rage now

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Good to know on that bag!

[@SmokeyDukems]

This will be super exciting to learn from

[@AnnietheHiker]

Excited for this experiment

[@wcamericanmade9828]

I'm leaving in a week for the trail maybe I'll see you there!

[@TheFraziers]

Awesome goal! Looking forward to following along. I have a feeling that the shoes might be the one area where you'll find that spending more money will be necessary. I've never found any budget options to work well at all, especially if you're doing big miles every day.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I agree, and not worth the risk of some shitty shoes that make me slip and break a leg, or give me knee or feet problems. Found some la sportivas used at REI, $68.50 shipped, that's reasonable if I can stretch 3 pairs of shoes like this that'll be under $200 for shoes for the trip.

[@yc_exploring]

heck ya! Super cool concept and something I've wanted to do. I'm hiking the cdt this summer and using a $30 knot tarp from aliexpress as my shelter. Its modeled after a MLD patrol tarp. Excited to see how it holds up along with your gear.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Oh amazing report back I'd love to hear how that tarp works out.

[@Awomaninthewilderness]

Jack, super excited to hear the news of your 3rd AT thru! I for one will again follow your journey. I wish you the best in your new gear. That 1100ml cook pot seems like its for two! ;-)

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Haha nope I need all that space to eat for me :)

[@terryfreedom9742]

Oddly, within the past few months I bought a bunch of the same equipment as you from Ali express. the pad, a 2ul tent, the quilt, the pot and stove, the down jacket, the nite core headlamp. Its pretty bizarre. I used it all on two overnighters and have been happy with everything. subscribed so I can see how the gear I bought holds up to abuse. I've been eyeballing that backpack too but didn't buy it cause I already have a similar lightweight pack. Thanks

[@stevebednarchik9390]

The Lanshan is a solid budget tent. It’s a tight fit for bigger people. Headroom can be an issue. Can’t wait to follow

[@BarbequeJo]

very excited to see how all the gear pans out. if you would keep some of it or if u would toss it all after the trip. this can really change the hiking/camping game if its all good stuff

[@Mwilke3789]

This is incredible.

[@markrico1917]

Love the concept here! It'll be cool to see what's possible using a whole heck of a lot less money than the common assumption.

[@kevkevdj]

I have that tent, it’s awesome!

[@barbara777]

I am super excited to see how durable and waterproof the pack is. My husband and I have been using the heavy ass Teton backpacks and we have been unwilling to spend over a hundred dollars on a backpack when those one are still in excellent condition. It sure as hell would be nice to shed several pounds off my base weight!

[@bexpoking1]

I have the exact big 3 setup as you. Same tent, and sleeping bag. But I went with the Naturehike 60l dyneema bag because it has a minimum frame. I absolutely love everything!!!! Great video my guy!!!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Oh amazing, how do you find the widesea quilt, that's the piece I'm most unsure about.

[@evancashman7614]

This is so cool to see, So many people on youtube do aliexpress overnight hikes, but commiting to the whole AT as a test is hectic!

[@Jesse-xu6wx]

On the 3F pack: Only the white threads are Dyneema. This was the cost effective way to include in the beginning. The rest is sil-coated nylon. Plenty good enough to hike a trail. Not as water proof as you’re hoping.

[@stigcc]

That is awesome! I am looking forward to hear about the sleeping bag.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Me too haha.

[@zachbarber]

I have that pot and stove setup. The stove is definitely made for the tall skinny pots and tends to burn everything in the center of the pot. I like that style pot but now go with a bigger stove so it’s not so tippy. You are an adventurous fool! I love following your craziness✌️.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Oh that's good to know on the burning food in the middle.

[@archi-mendel]

I've got Lanshan 1 tent, which is also setup with 1 hiking pole, but unlike Pro version, it has two layers. It weights 900 grams. Honestly, I would go with 2 person version as this one is rather small. When using inflatable mat like Thermarest XTherm or Klymit Static V, the fly can touch my feet and head, especially when using a fluffy sleeping bag. And I'm 175 cm, so not very tall. Oh, and train to setup this beast on different spots, especially uneven ones. It really takes some luck to setup it the first times the way that you can fit well without its walls lying on your face 😁

[@HitTheTrailJack]

the BRS stove is goated lol

[@cham_hikes6821]

Stop it!! This AMAZING! I love this idea!! If anyone can make it happen, it's you, Jack!! Can't wait to watch!!

[@cham_hikes6821]

Also, I am the most curious about your food budget. Can one eat for less then 15 bucks a day? If you finish the trail in 90 days that's $1350. I am excited to see how you break the cost down. I'm a penny pincher so can you tell I'm excited??? Hahaha

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I'm thinking giant thing of peanutbutter for like $5, buncha ramen for cheap, then big bags of trail mix. That should cover most of my calorie needs, then some chips, cheap discounted candy, should be able to make it out of the grocery store for under $30 for a 3-5 day resupply. It'll mean not splurging on town food at all though I think.

[@cham_hikes6821]

Ok that could maybe work!! Will you take into account money gifted as well during your hike. Too many questions lol I'll follow along for all the details for sure!!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

@@cham_hikes6821 I'd keep like money gifted out of the budget cause that would be not so accurate for other hikers to expect buncha resupply boxes and gifts and whatnot from strangers on the internet. I'd just use it to fund future hikes and keep making videos.

[@cham_hikes6821]

Ok that is super dope!! I love this approach. Looking forward to learning more from you again this summer. Thanks for the content!

[@one2869]

I am soooo looking forward to this one! I will definitely be following along. I can speak for the lanshan. They are great tents for what they are. My wife and I have the lanshan 2 and the 2 pro. We sold our duplex after not using it anymore because we liked the Lanshans more. We now have a variety of the xmids but still keep them Lanshans around. I imagine the backpack is probably of the same quality. Shoes might be an issue. Walmart shoes probably won't work either. You might be able to find a mid priced actual hiking boot that would possibly last half of the AT. Be curious to see what you come up with. Oh, and that BRS stove may use a little more fuel, but they are awesome!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Great to hear on the feedback of Lanshan and yep I think as long as it fits me decently the pack should work really well.

[@scherry2900]

Using a Lanshan 2 for 5 years and also have UL Trekking poles from them for trailrunning. You will like the 3FUl stuff.

[@DanielOutdoors]

Cool hopefully you document it as well, im from Norway so,I want to see

[@QuadzillaHikes]

That is the plan!

[@philhorne3293]

I paid more than that for my EE quilt. Your adventure will be fun to watch to see what holds up and what fails.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

That's wild.

[@wishdarkstalkaz4050]

The Lanshan is heavily used here in the uk...holds up very well. It’s a copy of the Duplex. This is such an incredible undertaking sir & like so many others, will be watching & taking notes. Thank you.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thank you!

[@billtidey]

This is a super cool challenge. $1k for an entire thru is stretching it for sure. I think I spent about that on the AZT. I was probably closer to $7k on the AT but during that first hike I had no idea how to budget anything. As far as cheap shoes go, I always get previous year closeout shoes on Amazon. Can almost always find something quality in my size for $50-$70.

[@Rabid.Turtles]

Hi there. I was delighted to enjoy your vid and I now have some great take aways to enjoy quality of life. I agree have already embraced many of your suggestions however I've also diverted somewhat into a hydrid approach. My shelter and sleep systems have been American made yet at great prices and weight ratios (Hemlock Mountain Outdoors). Agree that Chinese shoe sizes are all over. You have what looks like a super great pack where as I chose a GG ultra light model. Part of the reason for hybrid approach is warranty replacement vs new via Amazon. My clothes I've been buying Chinese, cookware will come from a small company in CA. Anyway, looking forward to enjoying your hike and progress gear reviews. I'm feeling you're not going to be replacing much if any as you've given this much thought

[@QuadzillaHikes]

That's a great approach! I don't see much of it breaking down, the shoes are the biggest worry but I'm going to get used shoes from REI to cover that front.

[@duanehundley]

Send it Jack. I tried to get the nitecore from your link. It took me to the brs. The puffy looks great for less than $20. Evernew makes low/wide 1300ml pots similar to the one you found. Works great for a couple.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Links should be fixed now! Yep Evernew is what we used on the TA, that thing costs like $50 or more!

[@C6lvxn]

I like the rebrand from the healthy gamer! Although I liked that tag a lot too

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I'm going to get back to doing healthy gamer on a different channel if I ever have the time. Next year! hah.

[@TheDoddsworth]

Great idea. We know you can do the hike. Backwards and blindfolded. The hobo budget will be a challenge.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

It'll be a fun challenge layer :)

[@josiebones1]

Great test to do! 3ful also makes a poncho that I've been considering (in case the jacket doesn't work for you). Not a huge fan of ponchos but they are hard to beat price and weight wise. They can also be a pack cover for those without a waterproof pack or redundancy for a pack liner. Using the z pad as the frame/sizing mechanism for the Qidian pro is an interesting concept. I'm very curious how well it works.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Oh interesting I'll have to take a look at their ponchos. I've never been one for pack covers, just a liner inside is the best solution imo.

[@davidgean13]

I did Springer to harpers ferry on $1,000 80 days. It’s doable

[@QuadzillaHikes]

That's great to know, 80 days, flyin

[@mikerice1599]

I picked up a lanshan to try out a single wall trekking pole tent. Ir was great.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Great to hear

[@andrea4633]

excited to follow you along! I just MYOG my new summer quilt, it's based on the EE with 10D shell and Climateshield Apex fill, about a 40 degree bag and cost me under 100 € to make and weighs 473g (16.6oz)

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Amazing! glad to hear your MYOG setup worked out, did you follow any videos or guides?

[@andrea4633]

@@QuadzillaHikes no, just looked at pictures of quilts I liked but I have been sewing for years so it wasn't too much of a challenge, I made a "Torrid" Jacket before (just can't afford some of the equipment with import taxes to Europe etc. and the materials are easy to get)

[@ambulowan]

Love this! Great idea. Did you sleep before on a foam Mat also? If so how do you manage at your high weight?

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Yeah in the summers I usually sleep on foam pads. Works fine for me, when I'm doing big days I can fall asleep anywhere, plus doing it for a long time I think the body gets used to the thinner mats.

[@nickwoo2]

I took the lanshan 1 pro to japan and it works well. the only time i had an issue was when i was in the northern alps and a big storm came through and even with big rocks on the stakes it still blew over.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Great to hear! I'm pretty excited about the tent.

[@moyashisoba]

The 1000 $ challenge is one of a kind. I'm very much looking forward to see your experience.

[@robopecha]

super curious how this stuff holds up!

[@spinewalker_]

These Hokz don't even have drain holes!🤣 3F UL makes pretty decent ponchos if the rain jacket doesn't work out. Looking forward to see this!✌

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Good to know, I ended up with Frogg Toggs, only $17 on amazon!

[@FLO5ndjdjd]

Love the 3f pack, it was my first pack. If I wouldn't want a frame I would still use it. The seams are NOT waterproof, expect quite a lot of water inside when it's raining a lot.

[@melodyhenry500]

Awesome!

[@anujbhatia3337]

Interested to know how the quilt and liner performs at various temperature?

[@alexwbanks70]

You could probably do the AT without any gear so if it'll work for anyone you're the one that could do it. I'm guessing you're going to get wet with that jacket and be chilly with the sleep system, but the rest will work fine. The 3FUL stuff is pretty solid. I have a 2P Lanshan.

[@Goruckyourself68]

I am aspiring to be “Geriatric Quadzilla. I only look to you for your inspiration and guidance LOL. Have a safe AT hike and I will be out there soon. My money is on you for any hike you do.

[@musingwithreba9667]

This will be fun! 😂

[@chrisr2925]

Great video. I think this is a first, several channels have done overnights with budget gear but I have never seen a long hike with budget gear. I can vouch for the Lanshan 1 Pro. I have several nights in it, one with high winds all night on a ridge and it worked great. I use my extra trekking pole to guy out the head end and my umbrella to guy out the foot end which keeps the walls from flapping in wind.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Oo good little hack thanks.

[@chrisr2925]

@@QuadzillaHikes no problem, I may upgrade it to an HMG Mid 1. Do you have experience with this tent?

[@QuadzillaHikes]

@chrisr2925 I have that same tent actually. I'm used to 2p tents do it feels a bit small but it's fine, keeps ya dry and light, I'll carry a little more weight for the extra space but depending on your preferences it's a good light 1p tent

[@suemoore1965]

💕 THANKS

[@tooooooobi]

Great video - thanks, I'm always looking for reviews on cheap products. I just personally think that when it comes to animal products one should think carefully about what it means to buy the cheapest option. But I'm still looking forward to your findings and your testing of this stuff - good luck!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Makes sense, I just learned about the different types of down just this week. Seems pretty awful to pluck em from life animals.

[@manuelwebe]

I bought a silk sleeping bag liner in the UK a long time ago (brand is Lifeventure Silk Liner), and together with a zero degrees C sleeping bag I have been in minus 5 C or more very comfortably. Silk has similar properties to merino wool: it does not retain odor, very easy to wash, it is warm and of course it very soft in the skin. I do not know if they still make them (bought it like 25 year ago), but it is highly recommended.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Good info, thanks! Silk would feel real nice at night

[@acamilop]

Looking forward to seeing how this goes! Great video. If you find good cheap carbon trekking poles throw the link in comments too.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Not carbon but the costco trekking poles, just bought em $30 on Amazon, cascade mountain tech.

[@fearfeasog]

I almost bought the lanshan 1 pro. Great reviews for that tent for the most part. Def curious how the pack holds up. Hope all goes well!

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Thanks 👍

[@HorizonHikes]

Will you be adding a pack liner/ trash bag on the inside? I would be terrified to trust the waterproofing in that pack 😂 especially considering they may not have added a dwr coating to the down bag or jacket

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Yep I always have a trash bag liner.

[@rsytube]

Hello, great video. I wonder whether you are going to upload videos as you hike or only after you are done with the hike. Do you also have estimate of how long it will take you? Since you hike at above average speed. Good luck.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I'll be uploading as I go, tons of service on the AT. Probably hike 90-100 days.

[@derekhand7904]

If you want to find a better shoe check out the saucony excursion. They have really good tread it’s not as good as vibram but it’s better than the max track on lone peaks. I started in those shoes and you can find old models close to $40

[@ronyrivera2781]

are you going to post daily videos of your experiment hike ? Can't wait

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I'll be posting updates, probably not daily but a few times a week. Instagram as well so follow there for more live updates.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Decided it'd be too much to try to squeeze that in, are you going? Enjoy!

[@christopherch7307]

@QuadzillaHikes yes, the wife and I are going. The prices you just shared will definetly be more approachable than the top shelf gear there.

[@Mike-qx6gy]

3ful use the concertina pad to act as a back and structure ie frame

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Yep imma probably use some of my cut off pad for that, but I'm not going to put the whole damn pad back there, that looks ridiculous and shifts the weight way too far back.

[@dustythomas2598]

Sierra has good shoes (lasts years model, etc.) for really good prices on occasion…..well worth a look.

[@brianrodman1033]

They have some crazy deals if you get lucky with finding something in your size that you have been wanting to buy. If they have SuperFeet in stock those things would be worth their weight in gold to beef up the support and comfort in s pair of cheap trail shoes. A word of advice, if they have anything you really want, jump on it and quick. With the low prices things do have the tendency to sell out in very little time. .

[@QuadzillaHikes]

I found some Nazaroo Insoles, $30 on Amazon and feels just like superfeet

[@user-qd3bh9zb5g]

I am curious to see how the gear holds up. Thank you for doing this for us poors...

[@sharrison3974]

Shoes are definitely not an area where you can save money unless you buy last year's model / colours. It's so important to have the right shoes for you when hiking.

[@jackpumkinhead9583]

I’ve ;used that pack. Were it failed for me was the straps are terrible and not a lot wiggle room on adjusting. The lanshan however i have used a lot in all kinds of weather. I too seam Sealed it. Twice now in fact, I’ve had it 4 years and it’s holding up just fine. It’s a little finicky to set up but once you got it down it’s pretty good for the price.

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Awesome good feedback.

[@Foghorn77]

Very cool idea. What does your budget encompass (I would assume food couldn't be included in that )? For the gear that fails do you plan to just replace it with the gear you already use? What is your expected start date?

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Food and hostels and such, I start today!

[@HorizonHikes]

Maybe try shoe hunting through REI resupply! People bring back trail runners all the time! Depending on the condition and what they were sold for originally you could get a great deal that way if you’re lucky

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Yes! I bought a pair of La Sportivas for $68. I think the REI used will be the way to do it for shoes.

[@Banana8359]

That’s a great challenge. I’m excited to see how it works. 380$ is incredibly low. Do you also have a cheap food strategy?

[@QuadzillaHikes]

Peanutbutter, ramen, trailmix on trail, rice and eggs and rotisserie chickens in town.
