GEAR LOADOUT || Wild Camping/ Bushcraft/ Hiking 2021

[@melindalow8526]

Design us a good hiking tee shirt Scotty

[@DaGarbageDisposal]

Thanks for the video. I am a professional eater that started his channel like that now I am doin' survival videos as well and definitely not professional at it. Appreciate your video and your help

[@MomVsFood]

Just subbed and that is crazy you can eat that much. Good luck on your next survival videos, watching the first season now

[@adbc8737]

“You do you and I’ll do me….” Such good advice! 🌀♥️🌀

[@terrybutler-fl4dx]

Common sense isn’t so common in today’s generation.

[@XanderBudnick]

Great Video and breakdown Scotty, I really enjoyed your last one and watched it recently, Thanks for the update! That little Aperture light is totally what I'm looking for!

[@sassmate1003]

Yo I forgot you watched these as well

[@alexvu2549]

Omg it's you

[@janssolo7456]

Two of my personal legends here. My life is complete.

[@GypsyGirl317]

Mate, I love this video! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 I like your style of presentation, it's similar to our Kiwi guys, and so easy to listen to. You use the optimum number of words to say what you want to say and no unnecessary waffling which is superb. I didn't even feel any need to ff, I listened to every word. I grew up in the 60s and 70s here in New Zealand, with an incredible Dad who grew up in the bush by a lake, so I have a profound appreciation of the quality of your bushcraft gear in particular, especially the leather cases! Your whole kit is stunning, and I like your knife, saw and tinder kit, plus the organiser. Definitely a fan here, and much respect to you. 🌿 I love tramping in the NZ bush and I too love my full grain leather boots.

[@impermanenthuman8427]

Also, I’ve heard both an Australian SAS instructor and also the author a ‘The survival medicine handbook’ say that eye protection is one of the most important pieces of kit to have in the bush

[@glenroberts7557]

PMSL 🤣😂🤣😂😃😂🤣

[@rafski123]

Yeah, I go hiking now with hardware store cheap safety glasses for $5. Had a bug once fly into my eye and near knock me out, not to mention several other times when dust or trees hit me in the face.

[@chrisdornerrespecter8884]

Protip for the shirt. Don't look at a hiking store. Go to a sports store and check out the gym and fitness shirts. They have a variety of fits and it's all polyester for when you get sweaty.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

Strips of bike, motorbike & car inner tube make fantastic emergency fire🔥 lighters. They stink like crazy, but will burn for a good long time even when soaking wet 👍 Of course you cannot light them with a Ferro rod, only a flame will work.

[@Petrolhead99999]

"gear is really personal" I fully agree, I form a bond with my gear especially my knife and fishing gear... But wow. I've never seen such beautiful and personal gear. That tinder kit especially is so unique and beautiful. Everything is well used and it's clear that it's deeply personalized and thought out.

[@bunnythump935]

This kit is wonderful, thank you so much for sharing with us, I am really impressed with your organised system. The only advice I would give is if any one does happen to fall and have a suspected broken bone, please remember not to take nurofen, as a former sports medic, any anti inflammatory medication taken results in most hospitals delaying surgery until your body would have processed the pain reliever as it can both impact bleeding and also anaesthesia. Unfortunately in those instances its better to not take those meds until you receive medical help.

[@raptordc5]

Nice seeing the difference and similarities from someomene on the other side of the world. Cheers for the US!

[@brick8253]

Nike dry fit tee shirt they are absolutely the best for everything... For relaxing to working and especially hiking it stays dry and if it gets wet it will dry extremely fast!!!! Also I noticed they almost never smell bad especially when you are sweating and working hard.

[@DominicShooter]

I like that packing cell idea for the winter gear, easy to throw in when you think you’ll need it.

[@kachiri]

I have one camp pot/pan for cooking food and a metal cup for my hot drinks and sometimes cold drinks. The pot and pan are a combo deal... the pan is the top for the pot and a pan as well. The pot, pan and cup all have fold in handles for packing it away. So I do go with metal for all, to put it over or in the fire for cooking/heating. For drinks that are not hot, I do like to have a bottle or a thermos with cup top for that.

[@CS-in3pg]

This was extremely helpful as there were several quality bits of kit that I can integrate quite well. Many thanks for the hard work you do Mate, well done!!

[@Mapleaple]

Love the set. Only thing you need is a thin 5v. solar panel with auto reconnect when going in and out of shaded areas. Comes in handy and can charge a 5,000mah portable battery while out hiking for 4-6 hours.

[@jeanwatson189]

Thanks for lugging that extra 3.3kg for us! Totally worth it.

[@duckman12569]

Ah yes. More things to buy for my BoB that I will never use. Excellent.

[@duckman12569]

9 Kg... at least my weight vest is set around the right level

[@_calebfray_]

Bro the photography and camera angles are so cool I wanna camp in places like that wow

[@lachygordon]

Please be aware that Garmin is not a PLB. It uses a third party subscription service that does not communicate directly to the AMSA JRCC. Garmin also does not use the Cospas-Sarsat distress beacon detection system like a true PLB or EPIRB.

[@RoughChopTom]

Can you recommend a device?

[@sebastianvanderboon6905]

G’day from Brissy mate. Love the Alton Goods gear, I use a bit of their gear too. Next on the list is a Korr knife. Love the videos, your editing is amazing. Keep up the good work.

[@Footballdreams99]

Always looking at new gear. Finding Aussie made stuff at competitive price is even better. Slowly converting over glad I found Alton goods & guys like u who review it because u use it. Cheers mate

[@carbss]

Alton gear is awesome, but made in China.

[@kgsz]

Considering you use merino wool long johns I'm surprised you don't like thin merino t-shirt for hiking. I'm using one through most of the summer for commuting on the motorcycle, and it keeps my skin nicely dry while not overheating me at all. Apart of that I'm using MoD issue CoolMax polyester t-shirts in the hottest days, and they're even better in cooling.

[@SMB_SpeedTwin]

Awesome video mate. Thanks for a great breakdown of your gear.

[@lyndonlives638]

Gotta say, I don't think I've ever seen anyone rock an Akubra the way you do!

[@lastknownlocation8760]

Scotty, The thing I’m most impressed about is how good your knees are that you can squat like that and talk at the same time. I’d be in too much pain

[@thatBAMkid]

We really appreciate the 3.3kg you lug around for our benefit!

[@kachiri]

Silky is my brand for folding saws. I started out with cheap folding saws from Canadian Tire store (I'm in Canada) and they don't cut near as good and didn't stay in good condition long. My Silky saws are F180 Pro (fits in my pocket) and BigBoy Pro (for bigger jobs). I love them!

[@amywilliams5233]

you got some really great gear, it was nice getting a breakdown of it all. I definitely have a few things added to my backpacking wishlist now..

[@wildlinesau]

Love to see what others carry and how they use and plan for using their gear, as you said it's all personal but some great little tips in here

[@ScottysGoneWalkabout]

Thanks mate!

[@BlackshacksBushcraft]

I love that quilt with the foot box. I'd probably be better off with that rather than a sleeping bag because that's how I use my bag anyway. 😃

[@dan30681]

Ah yes! I've been waiting for this. That's awesome Scotty, very helpful, thanks for sharing 👍👍

[@skiboy1970]

The best Rucksack walk thru I’ve seen.

[@Fronzel.Neekburm]

Great and practical loadout, huge thank you mate. I have been searching youtube for awhile now for a good camping first aid kit. I keep getting US prepping videos which deal mainly with combat wounds (or zombie bites) or the ultra light guys with 2 advil, a bandaid and a emergency beacon which really wouldn't help in our climate. Thanks again Scotty, you've helped me a lot.

[@paulneil3077]

Scotty, give Ottie shirts a look! I’m 6’2, about the same build and find their Aussie Marino shirts are a great fit and cut. Also look at the peak design carbon fibre tripod. Exxy but super light and compact.

[@mfanwelikeit3760]

Love that you mention the heritage aspect of the Akubra

[@Flockingtheherd]

If not the greatest hiking gear display I’ve seen yet thanks so much for the vid. You’ve got all the basics covered

[@deanoturn1985]

If you are looking for Aussie made gear. Wilderness thread works for backpacks. Dan is a legend. And terra Rossa gear for super light quilts and tarps.

[@NanoGh0s1]

I love your hat, the feather gives it that touch 👌

[@wisperingbeard]

Lots of thought and practical usage in everything you’ve packed. Nicely done.

[@TwoPlusTwoEqualsFive32]

GPS are great but you should always have a decent compass, map, ranger beads and waterproof writing implements to record bearings and distance.

[@wildwaybushcraftuk]

Love the simple breakdown of the backpack. Thanks for taking the time to film it

[@simonlane7817]

Great Vid, Awesome to see someone plugging Aussie brands 👍. Keep up the good work.

[@barracoutta873]

Absolutely love my Katmandu rain jacket! I have the same one and it's been with me everywhere

[@swagmanoutfitters1604]

Another great video mate, always interesting to see other people’s gear. Cheers

[@GoingSoloOutdoors]

I’m a sucker for a good gear loadout video! Enjoyed!

[@PaleGenesis]

probably one of the best gear videos, ty

[@4wdhuntfishin]

I love watching vids like this. It always helps me with ideas for what i want to carry, thanks heaps mate

[@moe_1886]

Thanks for the great gear breakdown Scotty. Some really good stuff you have and obviously happy with. It's also good to know that you only have the one PLB/GPS, as I wasn't sure if I should have 1 dedicated PLB and 1 dedicated GPS, so now I think I'll be better off having a similar GPS unit that you have instead. Love your work Mate, keep it up.

[@axerxes3981]

Scotty.... nice kit!! Thanks for sharing. Ax

[@MrDiPY]

Great to see your trusty Vanquest organiser is will going strong. I bought the same one in black after I saw it on your channel and I've never looked back 😁 Thanks for doing another "what's in my" video 👍

[@corz484]

You should wear your PLB on your belt mate, that way if you lose your pack maybe over high ground or in a crevasse, your PLB is on you.

[@j.armstrong5600]

Great video mate! Definitely a few things there that I’ll be looking into. Looking forward to your next adventure 👌🏼

[@laceyproductions9236]

"You guys do you and I will do me" Love it!!!

[@DogsTrossachs]

Nice job, you had me at Johnny Cash!!

[@mfanwelikeit3760]

I love that you include a plb

[@kachiri]

I have 3 knives I love and use plenty. I have Morakniv Companion (for small jobs), Morakniv Bushcraft Pathfinder (for small and medium jobs), and my big chopping knife in place of an axe/hatchet is the Schrade SCHF45 Leroy Bowie knife. I had that one for a few years and have used it alot, and it is still in good condition.

[@backpackingireland8624]

Brilliant breakdown. The Fjallraven gear is excellent. Scarpas outstanding boots , wore mine to the inner 🤦‍♂️ Like the leather bits , nice craftsmanship.

[@janssolo7456]

FINALLY ! I see you hit 100k Scott! Congratulations on that. Keep up the good videos and I’m hoping to see more of it soon. Definitely one of my biggest outdoor idols by far and short to say you are one of my best influence going on outdoor adventures. Bless you brother. Greetings from Malaysia. 😄

[@rebmep10]

Very cool just bought the hat in Winton loving the history of the brand cheers

[@joshimawashi]

Thanks for your recommendations of gear and brands...a huge help, as I'm not a fan of shopping at your typical camping store chains... And supporting Aussie brands is a bonus..

[@odinfineartcreations9898]

An Aussie bushcrafter on KZbin hell yeah

[@happyknife8785]

Nothing wrong with music in the bush when its a bit of background music around a camp fire where people around can still have a conversation, bit different when campers 1km away can here you blaring ACDC at 11pm.

[@benkle3000]

This is a great gear rundown. I like your semi-minimalist approach to both kit and camping, its a cool combination of traditional and modern techniques and attitudes.

[@ewoksalot]

You know you down-talk that Rain jacket a bit... but if it's lasted you TEN years give it credit man. I keep a lot of gear for that long just bc I'm a cheap old man... but it's really really rare to see anyone else keep gear that long so it must be doing something right ;)

[@Barfoot73]

Good call on the InReach. Being able to communicate the problem prevents emergency services the unnecessary risk to themselves vs a plb where the alert is sounded and every agency goes hell for leather. Still recommend a plb in the kit as a backup tho. The bonus is being able to communicate with others, ie wife , family, mates, etc (non emergency), for pickup, gin supplies, storms, etc. Logical and functional gear without promoting trendy/fashionable brand names. Function before fashion! Keep it up mate 👍 Cheers 🍻

[@Barfoot73]

Oh and on the fishing. You seem like the type that would ‘get’ fly fishing 🎣 and the developed rhythm, skill, and luck needed to present the fly to the fish. Add the element of making your own flies and catching fish on said flies on natural or artificial materials takes it next level. Cheers mate

[@mattemason]

Nice one - sweet setup. Bluetooth speaker is a great idea. I got a JBL clip on so I can listen to tunes while hiking. Came in handy on the weekend when I did the Cooloola Great Walk solo (90km). Love the Vanquest too - I got one after seeing your last load out video, so good! Cheers - keep up the great vids.

[@finnjuniperdenaro]

Wow Scotty, well-done mate, your kit is so so admirable, and your video-making skills, both capture quality & production... Wow! So so impressed with this super helpful admirable setup video =) cheers.

[@IntuitiveIQ]

That's really light! Great gear, thanks for the info. 🙏🏻

[@GypsyGirl317]

I'm only <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="100">1:40</a> in, and I love the pack! Very nice for the bush. I will comment again at the end of the video, and I am already a fan and a new subscriber. 😁 From a Kiwi Nana to the Aussie Bloke. 👍🏿

[@AndyTychon]

Great video Scotty. Just wondering what happened to your Tasmania Tiger Raid Pack?

[@mariumrajah]

My friend you have lovely gear I enjoyed watching your video Thank you 🙏 ❤ Fellow Woodsman,

[@BushcraftSurvivalAustralia]

Nice one Scotty, some nice thought out kit there. Those quilts look pretty interesting, hopefully they are available in an olive green.or brown. I haven't seen that PLB before either so will check that out. Cheers, Gordo

[@simon6703]

Wow. That’s lots of stuff.

[@masatoi5707]

クッカーは必要最小限、ほんとに使うものだけで良いんですよね！装備勉強になります。

[@canadianehbignorth7325]

I use the same plb. I really like the device but I wish it had a more modern interface and was more responsive. It works great and does everything I want it to... used it many times for gps functions and of course texting the family on trips... but I also hate using it because it feels so clucky, slow, and 1990s. Feels like an old nokia to be honest. I suppose that can also be a good thing. It's fairly robust and durable. I definitely agree that it's probably one of the most important items you can own for that scenario. It's also pretty handy thing to own in general for emergency usage if you find yourself without a cell signal. The piece of mind, the maps, and communication. Worth every penny. But I'd definitely recommend renting them if you don't use it frequently. I paid around $850-1000 (cant remember exactly) and continue to pay the monthly $40 it costs me to use and operate it with the functions I like having (weather, text, trip tracking, etc). $$$

[@michaelprendergast4416]

Great ideas for kayak camping, love the knife , tinder kit, organiser , akubra , Thanks Waratah , uuroo!

[@Arexodius]

Thanks for bringing that extra camera weight for us!

[@ohiovetoutdoors]

Very decent set up.

[@kiaorable]

Great video Scott, really enjoyed it.thank you.

[@Australian_Outdoor_man]

Thanks Scotty. Great load out video mate. Some great gear. Lots of information. Hope all is well. 👍🍺🇦🇺❤

[@DoomsdayAdam777]

thanks for the list in the description!

[@lovelybydecay7811]

this is an awesome guide and also i think i learned like 6 survival things i had no idea about already :p

[@mfanwelikeit3760]

Can throughly recommend the snakebite bandages with the indicator sewn in. That way you know you’ve got the compression to the right level

[@eivindb.sandnes9550]

Good show, mate! Really like your mindset when it comes to packing, as you said "each to our own" :) Great tips, keep it up 😄👌🏻

[@tau_tv]

instead of chapstick, try aquaphor. i get chapped lips and i think aquaphor works way better.

[@Chris-bm1gx]

Great video,very helpful thankyou. May I suggest a pen to mark your compression bandage so the doctors know where the snake bite is. Also some eyewash vials in case you get something in your eye

[@TheSRC900]

Great video! Thanks

[@Funkteon]

As soon as you begin using a tarp for shelter, you then need a groundsheet, and if you're in Australia, you'll probably need a mosquito net with a bathtub floor to stop the bugs attacking you - At that point, you've packed more in your bag than you would have with something like the tent that you showed which serves all three of the aforementioned purposes...

[@hetheringtonfamily8798]

Thank you for showing us your kit. I was wondering about your air beds and sleeping bags

[@BushCubsAdventures]

Great breakdown mate, I got a lot out of this video and the the list of equipment and links is unreal. I'll utilise this for sure in my trips and videos and I'm sure you've saved me a lot of time and research, great channel and content, love your work! Cheers

[@richardparrott7192]

Very detailed, great video!

[@VandrefalkTV]

Always enjoy these when they aren't click bait as f'ck, so cheers for this one :)

[@u2fanforever1]

Thanks for this Scotty. Still want that hat.

[@tarikmounih3559]

Over-Armed u are mi Homie hhh u shid cross the entire worldwide including oceans n seas with such pretty gr8 materials u carry on in ur bag brotha'

[@pixelfodder]

Great video mate. So good to see a talented local doing well! Keep it up!

[@Markk4kk]

Great video. What made you change bags from the TT Raid Pack MKIII? Thanks

[@Chr.1995]

Get the r6 for image stabilization

[@hittingthetrail]

Great video! I love watching other people’s gear videos 👍🏼

[@disturbunce2335]
