I have an Esbit set up that I have had for years. For a long trip I still take it and leave the Toaks at home. I wish my Sea To Summit Areos pillow had the strap. Even though I've changed over to cycling, my backpacking kit has been a valuable part of the adventures. Thanks for sharing your kit ✌

What was your total gear weight? Do you have a written gearlist with the weights listed? Ty for the video!

Outstanding

I really wanted to like the Klymit pads but I have not had any luck with them. I have bought 3 of them from different places and none of them lasted through the first trip. Thin to begin with but if they lose any air at all (and all 3 did) you are back on the ground. I’d rather have a closed cell folding pad then these. I finally saved all my Pennie’s for a while and bought a quality pad.

From the other side of the coin. I've been hammock camping for over 60 years and tent camp when only a tent can be used. Tent camping has acquired one new addition , it's the same mattress ( Klymit ) you have , the extra thickness is nice. The Jungle hammock serves as the Bed , Lounger and even a Chair. Yep , all three wrapped into one item. My mattress ( insulation ) in the hammock is a Therm-a-rest self inflating mummy style 3/4 length. It's inflated 1/2 to 3/4 so it conforms to the hammock and my body supporting every inch. I like alcohol stoves for the simplicity , quietness and light weight ( Esbit has a really good one) The pack is a Chicken Tramper 25 liter and with everything in it my Hammocks gear base weight is between 7 and 8 pounds. At 77 years young I don't thru hike , only section and recreational ( No hurrying just enjoying ) camping.

Great content 😊👍

Good to know the Walmart pad is good but I don't know....the decathlon one is lighter and very popular.....

I picked up a kijaro hammock at Walmart. Removed the tags and the emblem on the sack. I use 12 ft lashing straps from harbor freight, I just removed the buckles. In total weighs about 9oz. I take that instead of a camping chair

For me I use a hammock and tarp under quilt overquilt and I'm pretty sure I'm close to but not quite the same poundage as you maybe just a half a pound more maybe a pound and a quarter more Please do remember that most of the time whenever summer gets back here again I'm normally bike packing so my stuff has to fit in the bags on my bike my stinger bag that goes behind my seat and my cinnamon roll that goes in front of my handlebars so that's two bags that everything has to mostly fit in except for the third bag which is usually on me a small micro backpack of some sorts with some tools snacks and a few odds and engine Bob's and things And while I am backpacking I do not use a chair so I might be the same and I might be under and I might be a slightly over I have no clue

What about sleeping bags? I’m in northern Colorado. The places I pack into it can easily get down into the lower 40s or 30s at night even in the summer. Great video.

I do have the exact same pad I got mine at Walmart for $25 a couple years back I have no idea what they're worth now And right next to it was the climate static v pillow or x pillow again 15 bucks so I bought it what it's worth now I have no idea what it's going for

Hey, where did you cut your backpack to get the frame out? I also bought myself same pack and Im considering to put out the frame. Thanks for help😇.

I’m a hammocker, but when I do sleep on the ground in a shelter, I have the exact same pad and pillow that you have, and I also keep my pillow in the pad’s stuff sack so that I don’t forget it at home

I do have a pack that's similar like that but I don't have the mesh unfortunately

What temps can that blanket handle?

Good evening young man

Once you pulled out the chair, you needed to change the title... this is not an ultralight solution.

Can't you use metrics. The vast majority of the world use grams and kg.

Idk man I’d rather pay an actual decent company in the US for their quality products and all their customer service that comes with that. Plus US jobs. No thanks on the crappy Chinese Amazon garbage.
