I own the Rolly Polly backpack. I've carried it in Tunisia and Jordan. It holds my essentials such as 2 liter water bottle, packable rain jacket, first aid kit,signal and land navigation gear and other items.

We will be having the trip on the 26-28 of this month.. And we plan on getting a few videos during that time. Stay tuned!

Thanks for your support Shrouded! Blessings

Yes.. There are many product that I would love to "tweak" in some way.. I suppose that's how innovation occurs. But this is what it is.. and it's pretty good for what it is!

Great video as usual Dave. Thanks for all the hard work you and Tam put into sharing your knowledge with us. Inspirational !!

cool bag, would make a great grocery/shopper bag while traveling

Awesome review my friend! Definitely considering one of those!

This is my second favorite channel. BraveTheWilds is just ahead because he is just a little bit older than me.

Another excellent review. Muchas Gracias Dave.

a very nice tactical pack and awesome presentation. thanks for sharing this video...

Great Show & Tell Dave. Enjoyed the video.

Grace... Our girls (9&11) carry their own packs with basically all that they need. They can pretty easily carry 15 pounds or so.. but they are big for their age (100 pounds and 5 feet tall)

Mike.. yeah.. I have a fleece blanket.. will prob dd another 3/4 pounds.. I forgot to show it :) Sorry

Nice review Brother Dave! Hope you guys have a blast wish I was there!!!

Wow that is light.Very good video.

Good review David Really like Maxpedition Have several of there products!

It's a basic LED. I have seen them at Lowe's, Ace Hardware.. and a few other places. Don't know the name if them.. but they are pretty nice. We get them at a local discount store

LOL rocking the LodgeLogic hat! I always enjoy your videos man!

Hey Dave! Great to see that the minimalist camp is already coming up! Can't wait to see this year's videos. When are you all plannin going out?I'll be curious to see out that bag holds up for you. -Woody

haha..I like how you are taking the BIGER pack on the MINImalist camp..lol..Good review brother. Hope its a great time for you

No.. and I already commented on that.. it's 3 liters.. or 100 oz. Sorry for the confusion

Thank you Sir!

by the way it was my first video. I will try and do a better job documenting in the future. I see the need for videos like this now where I didn't before. Thanks

Amazing video. Now I want to get that pack. :)

never mind I went to your website. Would love to make that but I don't think I will be able to make MO. Sounds like it would be a lot of fun. God Bless

Great review. Might consider it. Need some advise on what kind of day pack to use for 11yr. old girls. Taking the granddaughters out next month. Should I limit the weight to 12# for them? What about a 15 yr old who is 6' and weighs about 200#?

Hi Dave, Awesome video, I really like Maxpedition bags too...9.6 pounds with water is is a nice weight for a minimalist kit! This is an old video do you have it even lighter now? I know you guys are busy but I miss seeing your videos and always go back and re watch them for inspiration. Blessings to you and tam Take Care

The camp is in 2 weeks..

What kind of light did you have there? That looked like just what I'm looking for.

Hey Dave I wish I could make it out to something like this. I posted a video response of a survival outing. It was only 24 hours, but it was bare minimum. I accidentally posted it on another video of yours about knots first so just disregard that one. Thanks God Bless

I'm probably a "little bit" older than you too.. LOL!

Good video though thanks

I have heard you talk about the minimalist camp on another video too. Is this just a family outing or is this something that is open for everybody?

Cool

No blanket of any kind?

and how far your walking.....we section hike the AT with 19 pounds for 5 days on the trail.

The average carrying capacity of any person is 25% of their own weight. So if 200#, they should be able to comfortably carry around 50#. But personally I believe in lighter loads for children, lets say 10-15% their total weight. My 9 yr old carries around 12-15# and is right at 80#. Another factor is their strength and stamina.

That's why I carry an extra bandana. and know where the Mullein is :)

No .. of course not.. ROTFLOL! I misspoke there didn't I? So sorry.. It's 3 liters.. or about 100 oz

7000 calories is slim for basically a 2.5 day camp? More than enough food for me.. I prob will also have a bit of GORP in my pocket.. and maybe a Monster or 2 .. lol

Spray paint does :P

Looks like some great, versatile packs. I'm working on two packs I'm sowing from Norwegian reindeer hides at the moment - I was thinking of doing a KZfaq video of what I'd typically pack for a short trek. Maybe I could do some sort of video response? Your videos are a great source of inspiration - thanks a bunch :) Please check out my channel as well - it's all in Norwegian for the moment, but I'll do some videos in English this upcoming summer.

Would love to see your video! Feel free to post it as a response to this one :)

100 ltrs really

100 liters? really

You should seek out American made companies. I stopped buying Maxpedition because of it. Check out Tactical Tailor, Spec Ops Brand, Etc.

Toilet paper should come in handy too.

ROLLYPOLY EXTREME is $85
