Hey friends! Miranda here. I hope you liked this video - it was a really fun one to make, but there's just SO MUCH information, so I'm sure I missed something! What do you think? Any big planning steps you'd add to this? Comment below!

Excellent overview - Best tip is that "the trail is always going to be there" -- so true. That's what I say when I hike in elevation esp when the weather is up in the air. I plan on backpacking somewhere close / short - thanks Miranda!

Not bad at all. I usually like to tell people to stay warm, hydrated, and found. If you can do those things, and in that order, you’ll have an awfully hard time finding a way to die out there.

I like to tell people they can basecamp backpack, or do longer trails/trips/through hikes with a few different camp spots. Also, many of my friends have dogs so we are usually checking whether dogs are allowed on some of the trips we do. Also, a big one for me is to be considerate of the rest of the folks in your group. If you split up to do day hikes separately, be back before dark and don’t go on unmarked trails if you have no way to communicate with the rest of your party. I have a couple friends who joined me on a backpacking trip in an alpine wilderness area that weren’t considerate to the rest of us, who scared the shit out of us because we had no idea where they were/if they were ok (until midnight when they returned), that I don’t invite to backpacking trips anymore.

This was so good! Another tip I have is go on a few guided trips first. So much can be learned from a good guide, from recipes, to first aid, to pacing yourself, choosing a trail, on and on and on!

Extra tip: Be flexible with your plan. Maybe you've made a plan to hike 20 miles in a day and after 10 miles you twist an ankle. Don't limp for 10 miles. Be flexible, don't rush. Do the amount of miles that feel right at the time. Same applies to maybe meeting people you want to hang out with, or an amazing waterfall or swimming pond you find next to the trail. It's not about the miles, it's about smiles. Dive in and have fun. Just make sure you have enough food and water to make it to safety, but other than that just try to enjoy the moment as much as you can. You're not at work, you don't have to hike 1000 miles if you'd rather be swimming today.

In Norway we have a tradition of greeting other hikers when crossing paths in the backcountry. I quite like this, as it for some reason only counts when on trail. In any other situation you do your absolute best to ignore everyone. Eye contact means death.

@@mrpimpsoda1 In Norway you keep your eyes to yourself, especially in public spaces. But if you go outside the city, hiking for instance, it is proper courtesy to greet the people that cross your path. In regards to the “death” part, that’s just a figure of speech.

I've had great luck using KZbin to research trails. Once I find a trail that interests me, I look to see if someone has made a KZbin video of their hike. It can REALLY help me plan my own hike! I would also recommend researching water. On some trails in areas where mining has been done, the water is NOT drinkable, even if filtered. You might need to stash some water near a road on your way to the trailhead or carry all your water.

Felt in over my head plenty of times, but never in a spot where I felt like my life was in danger. Keeping calm and taking a moment to stop and think it through when things are going south are very important skills to have.

Many US State Parks have backpacking camping sites. And most time the Park Staff will have suggestions for the first time backpacker if you ask them before you reserve your camping site. Yes, I would suggest a few trial runs before hiking into a camping site: overnight in your backyard, use a car-camping camp site, camp at a rural friend's land.

I appreciated the sock in the car tip. I’m not a big worrier, but the old Boy Scout motto “be prepared” sticks with me. Reminds me of a time I was camping in a national park in a foreign country a long time ago. Some friendly fellow campers at the site next to us offered to bring us for a ride through the park to look at wildlife. We had no reason not to trust them, but I still left a note inside my tent saying when we left and the license plate number of the car, just in case. Everything was fine and they were just nice, generous people, but I never regretted leaving that note.

I have two rain jackets. One is a serious actually-keep-me-dry in a downpour jacket that I pack if there's actually rain in the forecast. The other is a very packable lightweight thing I got an Old Navy like 20 years ago that lives in my daypack/bikebag/pack even if it's the middle of summer in the Utah desert.

I love the tip about making eye contact with people. I have a generally friendly face (as long as I'm not hangry) and I like that people feel comfortable enough to ask me for directions if they're lost. And also tell me if they scout wildlife! Hiking in GTNP last week I got so giddy when someone told me where they saw a moose, so I was sure to pass along the information to others and it was so nice to see them get as excited as me😁 -Em

Another vote for having stuff for rain: my husband and I were car camping once on the rim of Death Valley...in July. Like no rain in the forecast. So we left the rain hood off the tent so we could see the stars. And it rained in the middle of the night. Not heavy, but enough to not want to be out in it. We made a dash for the car and spent the rest of the night there. Always plan for rain. Always.

We were sunning on a rock with all our layers (including rain jackets) to try to warm up. One guys shoes were literally frozen solid. Like he had to wait for them to thaw so he could even get them on. He was also 6'9" and had his lower two feet of body sticking out of this little pup tent.

Yup, I got it, lol!! I love U’r personality, therefore I have subscribed! Yay! Great tips. I am in the process of gathering all my small, inexpensive stuff for hiking/backpacking. Like a trowel, water filter, new bladder, head lamp, etc...all the small stuff. I have yet ventured into the big 3. In my opinion, I think it should B the big 4, “the final 4” 😁 SHOES...Shelter, Backpack, sleeping bags/pads etc.. Why aren’t shoes included in this particular list? I think shoes are equally as important as a backpack or a tent. I mean, U have to have proper footwear for this, rite? I am going Danner for my shoes. I wear Danner everyday anyway. I’ve been wearing Danner for the past 10yrs- it’s what works for me. & for clothing I am going Fjallraven. That’s what works for me too. I try to wear some sort of Fjallraven on the daily, even if it’s as simple as 1 of their canvas belts, I have 3 different colors to match my work business casual attire, lol!! I want for my big 3, if U will, the Keb 52, the Singi Down Sleeping bag, Long, & use’g the Abisko Lite 2p tent. That’s my dream big 3. I try & buy 1 piece of gear/clothing once a month. For example, my next item to get is my cooking system- I have nothing atm!! I want the new Jetboil “Stash” perfect set up for me- love it, want!

My phone is turned off the moment I step out of my car. Once I set off, the enjoyment of leaving modern life behind is the best feeling. I grew up in the country, so spending time outside without electronics is nothing new. But most younger people never knew what it feels like to not have a phone, satellite phone/radio/GPS tracker at the ready. As such, I wouldn't hold it against them for wanting that security blanket, but it really isn't necessary.
