I couldn't stop laughing and came 3 times. Great vid Jonno

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@TheRtHonJimStiffOG Just 3? Will try harder on the next vid. Thanks for your lovely comment 🫶

[@RichardShortland-Neal]

Thank you for this. It’s really good to see a light weight kit list for a UK thru hike. I did the Coast to Coast last year and thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Thanks, Richard 🙌 I loved it, already planning another go!

[@RichardShortland-Neal]

@@JonnoDoesStuff I’m looking at at walking the Ridgeway next year but in reverse so starting at Ivinghoe Beacon and then dropping down to Stonehenge and then heading across to Glastonbury.

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@RichardShortland-Neal Oh nice! Did it a few years back, just the regular route though. Sounds like a nice variation, let me know how you get on

[@michaelcowan9980]

Ok Jonno, Born 1961. Pennine Way 1978 (Don't, it's horrible!), C2C backpacking with Trangia, Robert Saunders tent etc 1989 and again with wife and 10 year old 2002. Loved your kit review and you were sooo unlucky with the weather. What strikes me most is how far the kits developed and facilities on the route. Thanks and well done.

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

I loved the PW! And still love using my Trangia, it's lovely and quiet compared to gas burners. The kit is really amazing these days, I'm very lucky. And yeah, the weather did suck but it's all part of the fun... I think. Thanks for your comment

[@paulkingsley2]

Good breakdown of your kit. I personally just pack my Thermarest folded up on top of my quilt in a Nylofume bag. Haven't used the stuffsack for a few years now.Never had an issue

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Thanks, Paul. Think I'm gonna drop it next time

[@mintymilkk]

4:30 I looked into this myself around a year ago and got an Anker 523 (92 grams). Has 2 USB-C ports split between 27W and 20W - capable of 47W total. Turns out all USB-C cables have a minimum capability of 20W, but a powerbank isn't likely to go much above that, so 20W seemed fine to me. iPhone fast charge is also around 20W I think, which again is plenty fast. As you go higher with the wattage the extra heat degrades the battery faster anyway so I don't care much for the crazy 60W+ fast-charging

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Will look into it, thanks!

[@PhillipGreenaway]

I gave up after a bleak night camping at Blakey Ridge. Have returned home and am intending to do the Snowdonia Way and Beacons Way before I start my new job in August. Packweight is now a lot lighter! Just watching your canary island videos. Great stuff. I’m hoping to do a cross Madeira hike in December/January. Might even attempt some filming myself!

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@PhillipGreenaway Sorry to hear that. Weather was bleak towards the end for me, so totally get it. Those sound like great hikes, Madeira's on my list, too. Always up for some winter sun

[@PhillipGreenaway]

Hi Jonno. I think it was you I met briefly at the campsite in Littlebeck? I was complaining about my pack weight and was intrigued by what you were carrying. Now I know! Informative video. Will subscribe!

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@PhillipGreenaway Phillip! Great to hear from you. How did you get on?

[@lindahartley2940]

Thanks for this video on your kit

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

No probs!

Très sympathique cette vidéo. Merci 🇧🇪👍⛺️

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Thanks!

[@markj1679]

Great set up ! Is there any videos of the walk ? Or an Instagram page ? Thanks

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Thanks, Mark. Working on the walking video now. 4 hours of footage to get through! IG is jontyhopkins but it's a work in progress!

[@adrianbell4597]

I quite agree regarding the Hoody. I've tried a few and although easily the most expensive, it's so much more comfortable in hot climates. When can we expect the C2C film?

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Had mine for a couple of years now and it's held up really well, too. No rips or stray threads. Happy with it. Will get the C2C film out as soon as possible, still recovering tbh!

[@adrianbell4597]

@@JonnoDoesStuff Recovering or drying out?

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@adrianbell4597 😆 Both!

[@pauls8456]

What is a tick key? For removing ticks?

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Correct! Although I'm swapping the one I use out for some good old-fashioned tweezers

[@jordandent2717]

Check out lightheart gear for rain gear, there’s a shop called the gear cottage that’s stocking them

[@keaneeastwood197]

literally everything on their site is sold out but certainly one i'll be keeping an eye on! seems impossible to find british ultralight stuff/websites sometimes

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Ace! Will have a look, thanks

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Agreed. Would love to see more ultralight UK brands

[@richardhunter7363]

OMG - 35l sack - I did the walk, hotel to hotel, with luggage transfers, and still used a 35L bag as a day sack.

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

@@richardhunter7363 Yeah, not sure I'd go as light again, but the trail is so well catered for I figured I could pick up anything I needed en route. Just completed the Skye Trail and brought way more!

Great run-through of your stuff! What's the name of your fleece?

Hi great video I notice you say you are getting a smaller tent are you selling that tent as looking for a lightweight one If not please accept my apologies

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Hi Brian. Thanks! I'm not selling the Duplex I'm afraid. I do still really like it and would like to hand on to it. They occasionally pop up on Ebay, keep an eye out

[@btp1956]

@JonnoDoesStuff hi thanks for your reply I will keep a look out and hope someone is selling one soon Great video just re watched it Kind regards brian

@@btp1956 Since the Durston X-Mid a lot of people are switching. Keep your eyes peeled 👀

Love my atom pack and a great run down of your gear. Top stuff including the war of the worlds in the background. Have to disagree on abba though… nope… 😂

😆 Come on! 'SOS' is a banger

@@JonnoDoesStuff “SOS” would get me pressing the SOS on my In-Reach, even on a sunny day when all welded was well!

[@helpfulcommenter]

When you said you didn’t use your poop kit on the coast to coast does it mean you didn’t poop for 12 days or you had proper loo available every day?

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

😆 Proper loo. No digging required

[@helpfulcommenter]

@@JonnoDoesStuffThat’s a relief 🥁

[@dcaudwell]

I made sure the headphones I bought were licensed and guaranteed to absolutely never deliver ABBA down the cable! Ever!! (;

Impressively small pack Base weight?

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

I have no idea, I'm afraid. I forgot to weigh it. It was very light! Would have been even lighter if I'd dropped the drone

[@sophieisabelle3762]

The knife laws are ‘without good reason’ thought right? And camping is almost certainly considered a good reason. You do need to be able to justify it, but.

[@JonnoDoesStuff]

Hmm, I thought the locking blade meant it was a no no. Certainly feel my reason for carrying would be good enough. Will do some research, thanks!

[@sophieisabelle3762]

@@JonnoDoesStuff so a Stanley is a locking blade, for example, even though it’s under 3” it would still be illegal for daily carry. It is however legal with good reason, like using it for work. You couldn’t justify taking it to the pub after work, but you’d be fine just commuting or being on a job site. The under 3” and non locking no assisted opening restrictions are around daily carry with no good reason. My gerber dime is fine for every day, but my Opinel isn’t. I take my Opinel camping though.

Awwww Brexit! You gotta love it! Especially when you think of allll the benefits it has brought….hmmmmmm??….zzzzzzzzz
