Favorite Gear- Small Backpacks

[@ericabe4953]

Notifications are on and I'm a subscriber. First saw Hill People Gear in their store in Grand Junction, Colorado.Wow, it was a toy store for an outdoor gear geek like me, and the quality of all the products I looked at was top of the line. Very impressive.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

I know the store you speak of VERY well....that is their ONLY retail store (they have a few retail dealers) and is their HQ!

[@blackbird2056]

Turned on notifications. I am a big fan of the Kifaru and Hill people gear packs. Buy once and lasts a lifetime !

[@bwax1542]

Notifications are turned on. Good information and thanks for sharing. I own three Hill People chest rigs and two Osprey backpacks. Great gear.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

We agree...glad to hear it's serving you well.

I just started watching your videos and have really been enjoying them. Lots of helpful information.

[@jadelav7]

I turned on notifications and love Hill People Gear and Essee !!

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

Glad to hear it!

[@TheRealJohnMadden]

Excellent video! Oldie but goodie! HPG is really the only company I trust with packs, and I love their kit bags to extend their packs. The fact that any pack and be a pocket(attachment) for any other pack is amazing! I currently rock the Tarahumara, Umlindi, and Junction (depending what the trip is like) then I rock the original kit bag filled with all the stuff I want on my person.

My notifications for yall's been on since day 1 of being subbed. Love your company and all that you bring to the community. It's kinda refreshing to see the manufacturer's own channel talk about other company's gears and how it holds up. Stay safe & keep rocking!

[@NIKO-qs6ii]

Turned on notifications!! Thank you for another interesting video, as an volunteer rescuer myself I prefer too having a similar set up with yours. One small bag with some basic rigging stuff and the big one with all the technical gear.

[@dustin4185]

Notifications have always been on for you all. All the packs mentioned are great packs. Recently picked up a Kifaru Mountain Warrior and frame.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

[@davidpyle7333]

Love my Osprey and HPG chest rig.... Thanks for the reminder on running slick, too many packs these days with molle panels and D-rings all over the place, people feel like they have to hang crap from them. Murphy says that anything hanging off a pack like a Christmas tree decoration can and will get snagged !

I turned on notifications, great bag video guys, cant wait to see a cooking gear video.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

it's on the list!!! I'm afraid people we be disappointed....lol....we don't do much gourmet cooking in the bush!

[@M001706]

Notifications are on. Was surprised to see you guys use Osprey packs for actual SAR operations. Didn't think they would stand up to that kind of heavy use. With Kifaru and Hill People Gear you of course never have to worry.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

We’ve used Osprey in caves/confined space and numerous SAR training days and actual missions. The Stratus packs have held up well. My (Shane’s) Exos is showing some wear as you might expect bc it is a lighter weight pack.

[@kebrun4484]

Turned on notifications. Would like to see what you guys carry as far as first aid. As a Combat medic, Firefighter, and taking the Ditch Medicine (shout out to the great Huge Coffee) course a few years ago, I tend to carry at least one Rat Tq (for children) and one Cat Tq (for adults) and a few specialty items like an occlusive dressing and a few meds. The rest tends to be duck tape, cordage, and cotton material that comes from the 10c kit that is in every pack that I have because I would be improvising. Great video.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

we are in the same boat....I Know a LOT of people disparage the RAT but it works for me on dogs and small kids...CATs are a known good. SAM Splint is another regular piece of gear as well.

[@kebrun4484]

@@RandallsAdventureESEE I agree with a SAM. I carry a few in my Aid Bag for the Guard but as far as on a trek I would be looking to use a branch in conjunction with my large cotton bandanna.

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

@@kebrun4484 we expanded the use of SAMs in even constructing makeshift cervical collars or cutting it up to splint small bones like fingers as well.

[@GreenHillsGuitarStudio]

Thanks for the video and Info. Hitting the sweet spot in this size of pack is tricky. We have been rolling with the Rei flash 55 for camping and hiking with a flash 18 rolled up on the outside for day hikes. I also wear the Hill People Gear heavy recon chest rig. If I had it to do again, I’d go with the sar or original kit due to heat from the the full Velcro back pocket. Their stuff is great and I’m sure I will wind up with the Umlindi for a go bag. Hope to see you guys again soon. As always, I’m subscribed and the notifications are on. All the best. Take care.

I like the suspensions on backpacking-style packs, but the vibrant colors and sometimes really thin fabrics make me stick with 500-1000D packs that ride flat against your back (which are often too hot here in Arkansas).

I've got the HPG Tarahumara and Decker system, along with a HRKB, couple of Prairie Belts, and various pouches and kit. Been really digging their V2 Umlindi and it's next on my list.

I agree with the Osprey pack recommendation " I have an Osprey day pack and I have worn out a Ather 60. The last thing I did before retiring from being the director of an outdoor program for 32 years, was order 15 Osprey Volt packs for the program. I am a big Osprey fan!

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

They make good stuff and are good people. We like that.

[@kjpierson1152]

Finally broke down and ordered one of the Hill People Heavy Recon Kit Bags. We'll see how that goes before I step up to the painful purchase of that nice pack :P

[@RandallsAdventureESEE]

I consider the purchase of good gear that will be used as an investment. We spend a lot of time outside in ALL kinds of environments and conditions. Anything that increase our efficiency, safety, and comfort within reason is a sound investment.
