Reminds me of a picture someone took of a backpacker who not only had the tent on the outside, bottom, but it was still in the box.

@Jcs1aughter Ай бұрын

I can tell you as someone who has hike multiple days with my onetigris Cosmitto tent on the outside of my pack, it did not hinder me whatsoever. No pain on my shoulder nor did I feel tension on my hips. Also, you save a whole lot more room lining your pack and not using stuff sacks or compression sacks. Those create unused space that when filled helps balance the pack better. Also, it is perfectly okay to hook things to the outside of your pack you are either okay with it getting wet or trying to dry.

Knowing nothing about hiking and weight distribution, etc, I bought a mega light Mountain Equipment frameless backpack for my first trip. It hurt rather a lot, not helped by a disability which leaves one shoulder lower than the other. I struggled with it plenty. I then bought a much heavier Fjallraven kajka 65l (3.2kg vs 900g) and was well and truly shocked by how it felt lighter, more comfortable, and was so much easier to carry. I recently bought a slightly larger updated version of the kajka(75l 3280g) and it has taken things to another level. Testing starts tomorrow on a month long trip. When packing and adjusting it, it feels amazing to wear and carry, even compared with the older version.

@Im_With_Stupid Ай бұрын

I'm not familiar with the Kajka... other than having a wife named Katka, but there are packs out there like the Gregory Baltoro and Granite Gear Blaze and Perimeter packs that have independently adjustable shoulder straps so you can move one higher or lower than the other.

I keep my tent on the outside due to space considerations (smaller pack) but it's strapped in very securely so it never moves. I also put the hydration bladder across the top of the middle of the pack so it's easier to get to and also saves internal space for other items. Keeping my weight down also helps.

Luke, your comments on pack liter size made me feel much better and I appreciated you sharing that small snip-it. For myself I also found in the winter (with bigger sleep systems) I also had to go above 65L to an 80L pack where things fit without being over stuffed. SO much of KZfaq content is geared way more towards thru hiking, and I see non-stop recommendations of 40L packs being the "biggest you ever need"

Good explanation👍 I also like compact Bags with not much things on it. But I also like the possibility (if I use a tent) to attach it on my bag like on your thumbnail. In my experience it’s under some circumstances (rainy and wet) better to have an easy access to my tent to set it up first and I also don’t like to have the moisture of a wet tent in my bag. Anyway guess everyone prefers little things different. Again I fully agree with the rest. Thanks for sharing, Taro

Thanks for breaking it all down so succinctly. Nicest I've seen yet. Carrying the chair, for sure, table, not so much. I wish my Gregory Baltoro 65 had a larger sleeping bag section. Easy to work that out. But I love it. I have a gorgeous Gregory Massif that's 100L, all new suspension, that's huge. Afraid to over stuff. Gregory told me it was designed for AT thru hikers at that time..

@shempincognito4401 Ай бұрын

Partially agree. What's important is to keep the CENTER OF MASS as close to your back as possible. But that doesn't necessarily mean that you should put your single heaviest item there if it is bulky and other items have higher density.

@stewarttrains98 Ай бұрын

I laughed a bit when you said a 3 lb tent was heavy. My tents are military surplus and 1 man version tent if going by myself. Weight on them is an avg of 7 lbs between the three variants. But most all my gear is either surplus military or equivalent. It might be a bit on the heavy side. Everything lasts and is durable. I have learned over the years to only take and use things that generally can serve multiple purposes or know what can absolutely be left vs. what is a mandatory carry item. Some things I can't dual purpose and bring the best "tool" for what I need to or expecting to do. But you are definitely absolutely correct about the packing of a ruck or backpack. And always use the belt and sternum straps. As they really do help distribute the weight when wearing it. I have often carried 35 plus pounds on several mile walks and been fine.

as an avid backpacker and also as an infantryman in the army, I can definitely attest to this info. While I'm backpacking i like to keep my weight right around that 40-50lb mark for an average weekend trip. The same goes for my rucksack when in the field. My ruck has been as heavy as 90lbs. Most of the time i don't have the time to pack my ruck meticulously like my trail hiking counterparts. The truth is, if you're carrying extra weight, no matter how you pack it you gonna feel it. cut out the extra weight. You'd bed surprised at how much you can cut down just by removing everything's stuffsacks, unnecessary accessories, etc.

@shawn5222 Ай бұрын

Pro TIP! On the long trails we like to say “Hike your hike” so I won’t say too much about our buddy Luke but notice that after he got all that stuff in his pack he had no room for food….. if your car camping or doing a 500 yard hike into the woods to set up a table and chair then by all means. But if you’re going into the woods to HIKE then get a pack that doesn’t have a separate compartment. Get a pack that has one large compartment so you can protect your items by lining it with a trash bag to keep everything dry. And packing your tent on the top of your pack is fine especially after a rainy night. Do your research and GET OUT there in the woods.

@wev2344 Ай бұрын

Do you even watch his channel? He’s not “thru-hiking”! He said overnight and if you watch his channel, you will know that he packs enough food for dinner and breakfast. Sometimes lunch. He has another channel for longer camping. And his vehicle isn’t too far away so he’s not wild camping in a sense. I watch all kinds of campers from all over the world, and most of them pack the same way. But if you want that “thru-hiker” experience of packing tons of food that’s usually just high calorie stuff in a pack, then watch that kind of channel. It’s a whole lot better than the guy who uses a suitcase to carry his camping stuff.😂. I had a chuckle when I saw a guy pulling a suitcase up a mountain on a rocky path and then down to this beautiful river area. Still have no idea why he had a suitcase but to each there own! Everybody sees what they want to see.

@@wev2344Yall are just gatekeeping. As a casual viewer of this channel I don’t think this dude was trying to “spew his self proclaimed knowledge,” it just came off as another perspective as there is no actual right and wrong way to pack your bag. Luke was giving a good lay out for a more likely to be comfortable way to pack, but correct, not necessarily. Like this was a good suggestive video. What’s mind blowing to me if why anyone would bring this much gear for a 1 night hike in trip. Tables are for car camping lol. And as you said if he’s not hiking very far it doesn’t really matter about packed comfort anyways. That comes into play the longer you hike for.

I have gone camping with a Kriega R22 backpack, which is a motorcycle backpack. That brand use a harness system that I have not seen on any other backpack, which places most of the weight at the chest instead of the shoulders. I have placed all of my heavy items at the front, outside of the backpack (I knew that was not the proper way, but I was working with what I had) and even then I have found it comfortable. I wish there was a proper hiking backpack that used that system.

I know right from wrong, but every time I get to go camping is spur of the moment and even though I know how to pack I just jam way to much stuff in my backpack.

As a truck driver, you'll have a good ride and pull grades more efficiently with your drives heavier than the trailer axles. The pack is the same way. Everything should be in the bag and heavy against your back. It's a trial and error system. There are variables. When I pack out of camp, I'll move gear around. I've noticed worse and better. You'll eventually fine tune. You should also not allow your load to move. Rucking and trucking.

As former military and current bushcraft, outdoor & survival instructor since 1986, who also loves backpacking, I fully agree with the content of this video. When a group of students arrive you can easily tell who are the newbies to the outdoors by the way they carry and load their gear. Packing the heavy stuff in the middle closest to your body is not only a comfort concern but also a safety concern. The further away the heavy stuff is from your spine the easier the pack will throw you off balance with movement. Another problem often is overpacking taking all kinds of stuff you really don't need. So I pack everything I need in a (minimum) 10 liter smaller backpack and only change backpacks the evening before departure not adding anything.

Maybe it's a north European thing but I would never keep my raingar in same a compartment as my sleeping bag, good way getting a damp sleeping bag. Last week when I was out we had several short rainfalls so rain clothes where on and off several times. Rain clothes goes in the backpack top pocket. And my tent goes on the outside, I like to be able to put up my tent in the rain without opening my backpack when making camp and is I don't want to put a wet tent inside my backpack in the morning. Only pack my tent inside my backpack on short one night trips when i'm lazy and there's plenty of left over space in the backpack. I have my set up dial in and don't have a problem with my tent on the outside. But there's good and bad was to securing gearing on the outside on the backpack. Make sure is secure and cant fall of by accident, weight distributing, not hindering moment, getting stuck on branches.... deserves it's is own video ;)

I’m able to include 4-5 days worth of food if I pack carefully. That’s with a bear can. If I had to guess I’m carrying half the weight Luke is. That said, I’m an ultralight hiker and not filming awesome KZfaq videos that require the necessary accoutrements.
