Great video. We need to see more of this from larger backpacking channels so that folks on a budget ( most of us ) feel encouraged to get some gear and get outdoors, to feel like its not completely out of reach. Nothing beats being in these beautiful places backpacking and a little guidance on a budget friendly load out is always great to see! Nice work Justin

I prefer StrengthTape brand tape over LeukoTape, it’s stretchy so you can use less tape and after having used both I’ve found its smoother surface lets socks slide over it more easily. A few blister tips I’ve learned over the last 40 years: 1) Don’t pop the blister if the skin isn’t already broken. Instead, cut a gauze pad to fit over the blister and tape it in place. You might need 2 pieces of tape. 2) Use benzoin tincture on the skin around the blister to make your tape stick better and longer. You can also preemptively apply the tincture in blister-prone areas to toughen up the skin over time. For blisters just apply it, give it a minute to dry, then put the tape on. Make sure to get the tape on straight because it’ll be very hard to get it off with any adhesive left. I can go 2-3 days before the tape starts peeling, it’ll even withstand a shower or 2. You can get benzoin tincture in bottles, swabs, or ampules with applicator tips (my preference.) 3) Trim the corners of your tape so they’re round, this will keep your sock from peeling the tape up.

Great list! A couple things to add: - The Featherstone Moondance quilt looks like a lower cost / better value choice than the Hammock Gear quilt. However, I'd rather pay more than either one of those quilts and get an extra wide UGQ quilt with side elastics, because it is less drafty for me in colder temperatures. - The Hydroblu Versa Flow filter is more versatile than the Quickdraw, as it can more easily be used in a gravity filter setup (w/ the CNOC 2L bag). It also costs less. - When on sale, the Gossamer Gear G4-20 is a comparably priced, but much lighter backpack than the backpacks on this video. But it should only be used if your backpacking kit is overall lighter than what is suggested on this video (particularly the tent), and less is carried (no extras like a chair). - I prefer the large diameter of the Toaks light 700 mL pot. Also, there are less expensive titanium pot & spoon brands out there, like Boundless Voyage, Lixada, etc.

@danielsingh9415 Жыл бұрын
Separate the wet fly from the tent body, and stuff the fly into the outside mesh pocket to dry out, -ish, but mostly so it doesn't wet the dry gear in ur pack, which is protected by the pack liner, garbage bag or nyloflume liner. Justin also uses a Swedish sponge to soak up excess water & condensation b4 packing wet gear 👍

I have always wondered how, and if, you wash your body during long trails, especially if You're not near A (relatively clean) river/lake and in winter, when it's freezing.
@flowersafeheart Жыл бұрын
Great question!! I imagine some do naked or partially naked at a time in privacy of tent and baby wipes or spray bottle or washcloth of soapy water then spray bottle of clean water. Dry with quick-dry washcloth. Or outside in bathing suit (merino or alpaca underwear can double as bathing suit). Garden sprayer is great for showers or there are simple solar showers - but weight and privacy and amount of sun are all factors to consider. For those that carry bidet for potty breaks possibly that could double as for a little shower.

Thx for showing more on how to rig up a quilt sleep system, and explaining the pros & cons for us beginners. I'm not a beginner backpacker, but I haven't used a quilt b4... Do i need a wider quilt to match my regular wide Helix sleeping pad? Or just adjust the clips on the straps?
@maxwellerickson7066 Жыл бұрын
A regular one should be fine but a wide quilt would be perfect to keep out drafts if that's something important to you. You can also use a wide quilt over a sleeping bag in winter to add a lot of warmth, which is an awesome benefit in my mind.

I love your videos Justin but I have to disagree that this is a beginners essential gear list. That list is between ~1500usd and ~1900usd. It seems a bit extreme to tell a beginner to do such an investment just to star with, honestly. This is more a medium range list of equipment for backpackers. But it's only my opinion, that doesn't make me correct.
