Thanks for sharing Andy, Should be starting next Saturday, hoping for a reasonable weather window, doing it over 5 days as I’ve got my Mrs with me as well, refining the pack today, it’s about 11kg at the moment, I don’t think I can get it lighter than that, will keep trying though 😊

@BackpackingUK Ай бұрын

11kg sounds fine to me, I’d be pleased with that!

@Insolesandlaces Ай бұрын

Good info Andy, think I'm down to 10kg without water, but to achieve that pretty much no duplicates or luxuries. My kit now is old and I tend to buy kit on the more durable than light weight. So many times I see hikes that have raided the outdoor shop and take so much then look absolutely miserable when out walking.

Hey Andy, thanks again for taking the time to go through your kit in such detail. It helped me enormously when planning for the Hebridean Way. I saw you've got the new Coros Vertix 2S - what are your thoughts on it so far, would you recommend? I'm swaying between that one, the Suunto Vertical, or good old Garmin Fenix.

The Fenix 7 would pip it if you got a deal on it.

@paulcoupland4363 Ай бұрын

Nice series dude 👍 Did you get any back neck or shoulder discomfort from using the Mo? Everything I read or watch says how comfy the Mo is... But I can't wrap my head around how it can be more comfortable than something like an Atmos AG50 given all the engineering and material which goes into that back and suspension system.

@BackpackingUK Ай бұрын

It’s got nothing on the Atmos. Everyone who buys ultralight gear always says ‘best ever’ or ‘comfiest ever’. It’s a load of rubbish. To be fair, this pack is far better than most UL packs, but it’s no Atmos.

Looking to do the Cumbria Way in start September, but still haven’t purchased a map. Were you satisfied with the Harvey map or are there other (better) alternatives? Thanks for great content and greetings from Denmark :-)

Harvey maps are small, light, weatherproof and very detailed. You can’t really go wrong.

Sounds great! The Cicerone guidebook refers to “mountain” and “foul weather” alternatives along the Cumbria Way. Do you know if these alternatives are also covered by the Harvey map?

@@BackpackingUK I'm in Poland and I've just recently heard of them. I'm probably going to purchase one soon. It's just odd that none of the big channels (I would consider yours big) have never even mentioned them.

@Im_With_Stupid Ай бұрын

@@Obi-Wan_Pierogi There's a blue million gear companies out there and so many of them get lost in the pile if they don't promote heavily. I mean, you're in Poland yourself and even you just recently heard of them. Even when people do hear about new brands they usually still don't want to stray from the brands they already know they can rely on, especially when the new one is coming from some place like Poland. Not that there's anything wrong with Poland, but it's unfamiliar territory when it comes to outdoor gear. They have some good looking stuff, though. I would seriously consider one of those Trenlite jackets if they had a synthetic version.

Hi Andy, exvellent video again. You really help with your advice. I carry my cameras in a chest bag ( go pro, batteries, Panasonic lumix, plus battery bank) but my current bag rubs on my chest and causes pilling of merino tops. Do you think the OMM chest bag is suitable for cameras or would you feel them digging in you? Thanks

Unfortunately it’ll just dig in. It’s fine for small vlogging kit but not large cameras.

Thinking of buying a Zenbivi bed system myself. With regard to your Zenbivi bed. Did you go for the convertible quilt option or the non convertible version? Also which size and temperature rating and size did you choose? I would be interested to hear if you have any regrets from usage regarding these choices? Cheers

Mines the standard Light Bed 25 degree. I wouldn’t take it past zero degrees but it’s great for 3 season use.

Hi Andy, wee question, do you take any medicine with you? I mean with respect to headaches and diarrhea. I have a Helikon micro med kit which I stuff with paracetamol, Imodium, and Dioralyte rehydration sachets. This would be on top of a booboo and blister kit. On account of its tiny size, this med kit can fit easily into a shorts or trouser pocket.

I often take a lifesystems nano or micro first aid kit with added paracetamol and ibuprofen and compede.

Subs are £15pm on a limited plan and £35 for more than you’ll probably ever use! You can cancel anytime though. If I was doing some potentially dangerous stuff I’d take the inReach Mini 2, otherwise I’d take the Messenger.

So I would give a wide berth to a Chinese web site that sells tents stating that at 915 g the tent is lighter than 2 bottles of 500ml water. That would defy the whole of the metric system.
