Backpacking Gear List for Mt Shasta

In this video, I share all of the gear I brought with me on the Mt Shasta hike. I was planning the trip for months and collecting the gear that I was going to need, so I figured that other people would be interested in seeing the gear that I used while planning a hike up Mt Shasta.

Nice list! However, you mentioned the sleeping pad as a "luxury" item, when in fact it is an essential item for survival. If you are sleeping overnight on the snow, you WILL get hypothermia without enough insulation below your body. Your sleeping bag will compress underneath you and won't protect you from the cold ground. Taking a sleeping pad with enough R-value for the temperature is critical. For anyone looking to do an overnight in the snow, don't skimp on your insulation! It will keep you alive.

Requesting a “what I actually used and what I should’ve brought” video! Thanks!

[@californiathroughmylens]

I pretty much used everything I brought, but I did include a few things I wish I would have brought at the end of the video.

[@Italionmex]

Very informative video. Thanks for sharing.

[@jackvucreative]

Thanks for sharing. I’m planning to climb it with my men’s group in a couple of months so good stuff to know.

That Peak Design camera clip is really nice!

[@californiathroughmylens]

Ya, I love that thing. It is a must have for me on my hikes since I am always carrying the big camera.

[@bertman4]

Do you also have the leash or wrist strap? I'm considering getting those in addition to the clip. One minor problem I found with the clip is that the sternum strap slider on the shoulder pad is right where I want to place the clip. I wish the clip had a slight cutout on the back to accommodate the thicker area so I can apply more equal pressure across the clip.

[@californiathroughmylens]

I know what you mean, but I do not use a leash or wrist strap. I just use the clip as I don't like having to hold the camera while I am hiking, especially on the long hikes. Let me know if you use a leash and like it though!

Great videos! Where did you get that down stuff sack for your camera?

[@njosborne5540]

Great video. What liter size is your backpack?

[@nickmuaythaiandfitness]

Does it matter if you go later in the summer if you camp and head out early when the snow is tighter? I was thinking of doing my first Shasta climb this summer.

[@marksullivan6319]

Such a small first aid kit, what's inside of it?

[@cataclysmic911]

Really an enjoyable and informative video. What did your pack weigh with all your camera gear? Thanks.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Thanks I appreciate it! It was around 35 pounds, since I could filter water pretty easily I didn't have to carry a lot and I only brought one lens, so it let me keep the weight down a little bit.

[@benelliott6133]

Hey Josh, great vid👍 I’m doing the climb in June. What waterproof hiking pants did you use?

[@squashhead1374]

Out of all these videos on you tube nobody talks about how they use the restroom.

[@californiathroughmylens]

I put a video clip of the "restroom" at Helen lake in my Shasta video. They give you bags when you get your permit in case you need to use them.

[@keitasalmon6485]

your list is good. just fyi, avalanche gulch route would never be considered a "technical route". it's considered a "walk-up". technical route is never a beginner route like avy gulch. it would suggest use of more technical ice tools as well as rope, protection, belaying etc.

[@JBOutdoorsAndMore]

Awesome Job on the video and i love the gear. Also love the channel just subscribed and would love to have your support as well. Thanks again my friend. I have some catching up to do lol. ATB Joe 😎 👊🏻

[@elisaadams6914]

Dont scratch n sniff 🐻🐨 you're welcome

[@squashhead1374]

Use if the restroom while backpacking is like the forbidden subject nobody ever talks about it.

[@elisaadams6914]

Also just to let you know your last updated time keeps changing ? Just saying (:

[@iwantcartonsofchocolatemil6999]

Crampons?

[@Mordecaigut]

I know it’s been a year but for anyone seeing this with the same question, they’re basically snow chains for your boots/shoes to help with traction/grip in snow and ice
