I have only backpack camped 1 time in my life. Im a 50 yr old married woman who loves the outdoors. I freaking love your channel. I think I found you because I watch a lot of mountain climbing videos and Im a history junky. The algorithm led me here and I have totally invested myself in your content from camping to mystery and crime. I live in Alaska and have only recently in the last 2 yrs started camping there but we have always camped in Georgia our home state. A lot of the products you speak on still helps me with my simplicity of camping and day hikes. Thanks so much for the laughs and education.

Normally I would scoff at the foam pad, but I've camped in Kalalau, and pretty much any inflatable sleeping pad is going to be much too warm. I ended up sleeping on the tent floor. Also, while you'll want to bring the rain fly with you, ditching it at night to allow the heat and humidity inside your tent escape is essential -- so bring a tarp. No single-wall tents for this hike.

My first overseas hike was that Kauai trail back in 1997. I remember being WAY heavy in the gear department! I should've left probably 75% of what I had with me in the rental parked by beach at roads end. Needless to say, I did learn a lot that hike & sweated way more than I needed to. Fantastic trail but an over abundance of choppers overhead. Great when nightfall came & they were gone

My NeoAir lasted about 15 years of heavy use, at least 3-4K or miles on it over that time. What finally killed it was using it on a concrete Terracotta floor for a few months in my dad's house in Florida after he passed away last winter (he almost made it to a 100!), while we were fixing up and cleaning out the place for sale. Should have put my Tyvak under it. (My sister got the bed).

A fleece blanket would be about perfect actually. Now I have a nylon blanket from Cotopaxi that has a thin wool batting layer inside. :)

Sand or snow stakes might be worth acquiring if those are conditions you're dealing with frequently. But a good technique is to 'dead-man' -- tying your lines to the middle of your stakes and burying them horizontally. Piling rocks on top of a horizontal tent stake can also work, as Kyle mentioned. Bigger stakes mean more bulk and weight.

I have my Garmin ON my body...its in a pocket on my sports bra with its neck tie around my neck, it's not leaving my body lol, But Find a place ON your body..so many people have it on the pack shoulder, BUT if you've set your pack down and or its ripped from you like on a water crossing dunk..it's gonna be gone..and you NEED it! you will want that GPS ON you! Classic example happened last year here in my province, Guy had a GPS on his pack, set it down and was admiring the view..slipped on loose gravel and fell 80 ft to a broken leg and arm..His pack was sitting up the mountain with its GPS. He luckily was found by another hiker 5..yes, FIVE! hours later! and they called in the help and he was rescued. You never never know what can happen to you in the back country!

Cheap poles will often have twist locks as well, which are more prone to failure than the flick lock. That's why the CMT poles are fantastic, they have flick locks while still being lightweight and cheap. However the CMT 2 section poles are unbeatable for price to weight. Absolutely love them, though I still keep my 3 section poles around for lending to friends.

I know exactly what your problem is, this happened to me years back and I've seen it happen to SO MANY other people. The problem is you're screwing the bottle too tight onto the filter. This causes the o-ring to come off, happens all the time. Instead, screw the bottle on so that it's firmly in place but do NOT screw it on really tight. This will solve the problem, hope that made sense.

That Neo is never going to pop... I still have both of my original Neo Air pads. I bought them 12 or 13 years ago, something like that? They were my primary pad for 10 years and never had a problem with them. I upgraded to a thicker pad a couple years ago, but these are still in mint condition and get used as backups or loaned out to friends or family who need one.

Why do you prefer the CDT for longer trips? I guess I should ask how do you manage to fill a 54L pack while having

I'll tell you exactly how I fill the pack: food. I eat a lot. If it was just my gear, I could easily use a 40L pack but when I'm thru hiking I need a lot of space for food. I'm a big eater

@Kyle Hates Hiking I too am a calorie monster. Curious, do u ever consider caloric density when meal planning or resupply at grocery stores or do you just go for what you feel?

If Kyle really has a GF....I think we all need to speak w/her - how about a live ? Dig the Paris Mt shirt, camping there in May as my daughter has a USL-W (soccer) game in Greenville.

are there any gps devices that don't require monthly subscriptions and costs per text message?

I think the satellite devices all have some kind of subscription for messages. You can get simple PLBs though that only have an SOS button. No GPS or message capabilities. They are a one and done price.

Out of curiosity, you had made a video in Hawai’i saying there’s no hiking in Hawai’i. I commented saying Hawai’i does have hiking and you gotta check out the Kalalau trail. Was it that comment that inspired you?
