AZT thru hike 2019: Tusayan to Flaggstaff

[@jo-jobighiker5552]

That's Humphrey's Peak: 12,637 feet, or 3,852 bushels. I can see it from my house, 75 miles South.

Nice hike, nice commentary, nice trail family. Happy Trails

So since it is the desert water sources can always be iffy at best unless it’s a spring/ creek. But we are hiking technically after AZ “monsoon season” so they should be somewhat fuller but once again with desert it is always up in the air with water

Re video resolution. Looks good to me. When first uploading video it takes several hours for higher resolution to render. So if watching just after upload might only have lower resolution option.

Great videos! I'm curious about MagPies pack, it's a ThruPack Three-Five I belive. It looks like a great pack, I think I want one. What are her thoughts on it? I can't find any reviews. Thanks for the awesome videos! Enjoy the days!

Magpie Says: it’s a four-five actually, but I rarely use the full capacity. I don’t hate it now that I’ve made some modifications, but if I was buying a new pack again, I’d go with ULA. It’s got some durability issues - the backpad fasteners broke within 60 miles, the clips are cheap flimsy plastic, the bottle sidepockets lost elasticity super quickly, drop small objects, and have to be packed just-so in order not to lose a bottle every time you pull one out. I hated the hip belt so much that I swapped it for a ULA one, but I also have wide hips and a small waist, so fit issues there are something I always have to deal with. Like I said, it’s not so terrible that I’m running out to replace it right now, but Thru-pack definitely has some production quality issues to work out before I’d buy from them again

@@HikingAmerica Great to know, thank you! Enjoy yourselves out there!

🤣 now don’t over do on the commentary now 😅 but seriously. Your commentary is just fine. Trail is more than video and pics. Little story line is cool. 👍 you cannot please everyone so make sure you are pleasing yourself. We will be fine....

Tanks, caches all dry? Why? Are they normally full in the earlier part of the year? Thanks.
