The Best Way To Pack Your Bergen

#fieldcraft #flecktarn #stealthcamping
Take a look at a system ive always used, its very effective and logical. it will save you room and weight it will become second nature where to find what your looking for.

[@leeperola7023]

Nice one man.👍 Very interesting film. I love seeing other people's loaded packs. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@outsidertank]

Thanks Lee and your very welcome.

[@seanbunce720]

Great video pal I'm trying hard to find the time to get out there and wild camp you just showed me everything I need take care 👍

[@outsidertank]

KEEP IT SIMPLE BUDDY JUST TAKE THE ESSENTIALS..

[@southbucksbushcraft6572]

Nicely packed lee, very well organised mate.. I also have started doing the same with my sleeping bag I find its packs in better and leaves more room for other stuff.. Thanks for sharing and take care lee 👍🏻

[@outsidertank]

It's a simple system I've always used. And not using a stuff sack for the gonk bag saves so much time and room. Thanks for watching and commenting .

[@NauticalNightmareDeep]

Thanks for the video Lee. I keep my knife on the left strap, butt pointing down on a lanyard for quick access plus it makes me feel like I’m Rambo 😂. I’m a little in the dark about the tools on the outside especially the knife from a legal perspective? I keep an arctic sleeping bag inside a Dutch bivvy bag and stuff them both in my main compartment. Keep a lightweight tarp too. I don’t carry boot polish or brushes, I just thicken my boots and leave them. With 24 hours of rations & water can’t justify the weight. 🙏🙏🙏

[@outsidertank]

What pack do you have Edward ?

[@NauticalNightmareDeep]

@@outsidertank 85L with rocket pouches. Molle system. DPM but non military issue. Got 120L and 150L packs also but I can fit all in 85L. I’m trying to get my pack as light as possible. 👍

[@outsidertank]

@@NauticalNightmareDeep wkd. I have the flecktarn 110ltr DPM 120ltr shortback and the DPM Northern Island patrol pack .

Enjoyed this vid and reminds me that I don't really need the kitchen sink when I go camping. Keep it up, great stuff!

[@outsidertank]

Ah nice one Dave that's very kind thank you..

[@francisoneill3784]

Thank you so much Lee 🙏. Just what I was looking for. I like the way you organise it and section everything off. What kind of first aid kit would you, or anyone here recommend; that one looks nice, light and compact. Subbed and thumbs up 👍 Best regards, Frank

[@outsidertank]

Thank you for the Sub Francis. So the first aid kit or IFAK. Individual first kit is exactly that. Tailor it to yourself Francis. Even a zip seal bag will do...

[@SQWIB]

Not sure if I ever congratulated you on the 1000 subs but you are much past the 1000 mark now, anyhow Congrats and we'll deserved.

[@outsidertank]

Hey Thank you SQUIB much appreciated, thank you..

[@CosmicCamper555]

Cool pack Lee you an fit all you need and it looks great 👌

@@CosmicCamper555 watching yours now. Your Dad sure knows how to disappear. Very impressive 👍

[@OldNavajoTricks]

They way I remember the shitbins on the main packs contents is remembering that you need the RIGHT tools for a job (I keep building kit in there) and at the end of a day (Shelters up, any cam and perimeter measures are all up and done.) there's only the cooking LEFT to do... My bergens modded to have a third rocket over the messing pouch in the middle, hammock and tarp kit live in there, retaining a hidden pocket for valuables/documents, the straps I added to secure that also continue up and secure the floating lid at the front, I also have a four rocket throwover yoke set up, more mods coming as I can get to doing them but the overall plan is L1 kit on my person (bit tough as I wear a kilt and vest tops most times.) L2 kit in the throwover 'running pack' and L3 luxuries in the main pack.

[@outsidertank]

That's a brilliant system, I do like the sound of that..

[@outsidertank]

That's a brilliant system you have. I do like that a lot.

[@OldNavajoTricks]

@@outsidertank I'll do a few vids once I've finished the mods list and rererererepacked everything (again :-D) but at the moment I haven't done any 'proper' videos Marra. And thank you for the compliment.

[@silvafox8371]

Nice bro , thanks for sharing - always nice to see how others pack there's , I pack mine very similarly regardless of the situation ( my bugout bag ofcourse is different naturally due to nature of it ) regards Silva 🐶

[@outsidertank]

Thank you Silva your a star..

[@fairplayhayden5158]

Yeah I thought that was the case.they were asking strange requests so I reported and blocked them 👍

[@outsidertank]

Thank you..

[@Pythontrader743]

Great video mate this is my first video I’ve came across of yours but I have subbed and looking forward to seeing future vids… Also, What was the jacket you sleep in mate? I’d love one as a back up incase it gets a little chilly during the night?

[@outsidertank]

Ahh cheers buddy thank you. What your looking for is a " softie jacket " cheap as chips from any army surplus. Goarmy is my choice.

[@Dingleowl1582]

👍

[@outsidertank]

Thanks buddy

[@CannonBallEddie]

Any advice on weight distribution fella and correct fitting of the bergen on the back for those long tabs. Sweet video good selection of kit.

[@outsidertank]

There's nothing really heavy on its own in my pack , but I know exactly where everything is stored and could find my gear blindfolded. I keep the puck up on my hips ..

[@OldNavajoTricks]

First rule of weight distribution is the beloved SFE rule, if Some Fucker Else is carrying it it's always better haha!

[@outsidertank]

@@OldNavajoTricks haha love this my friend..

[@OldNavajoTricks]

@@outsidertank You knows its an unwritten protocol haha.

[@outsidertank]

@@OldNavajoTricks hey would a rocket fit on the front of my British short back ? Just watched your vid but yours is a long back.

[@torsten4757]

Hey Lee, what is this for a backpack?? Brand, Model?? Berghaus? Mil Tec? A Bloechl?

[@outsidertank]

Miltec do them Torsten, their huge. Their quite expensive, but I found mine unused on eBay .

[@paulevans-u2o]

hi lee thanks for sharing what pack are you using there m8 ?

[@outsidertank]

Hello. It's actually for sale ? It's the Alpine 110ltr ..if your interested It's going for less than half price. Great pack, it's just I've hat a mtp one and ain't got the room. I've also got the belt kit to match...

[@paulevans-u2o]

how much m8 ?@@outsidertank

[@dragonoutdoors]

Hi bud, first of all thanks for the video, but my one concern is, why wouldn't you keep your sleeping bag in a dry bag? obviously because it's one of the most important items in regards to keeping you warm and dry?

[@outsidertank]

my bergen has a liner..

[@dragonoutdoors]

@@outsidertank Ahh fairone, that makes all the sense haha, thanks for the reply bud and keep up the good work 👍🏼
