Peak Refuel gives a discount to veterans. 🙂

More intense cardio burns a higher percentage of glucose (depleting your glycogen stores); this would be the case with a steep fast climb, and in this case, you would need more carbohydrates. Slower steady hikes burn a higher percentage of fats, but your digestive system can only digest fats so fast, so don't eat too much at once. Tailor your diet to your hike and also your own body and your own preferences. I have found that listening to my body, and knowing how to anticipate what I need, makes a huge difference for the success and enjoyment of any hike. If you hike slow for a long time, you can actually utilize more fats so taking the higher calorie per ounce can work. I like having a mix of snacks for exactly the reason Tayson Whittaker says.

This is not correct - it’s the top of pelvis not hip bone. Hip bone is way down below your waistband.

If you have good information, don't drown it out or distract from it with music. If you don't have good information, go right ahead. We were in southern Utah and northern Arizona a couple of weeks ago. Beautiful, albeit a tad (110 F) warm.

Think of the weight saving if he shaved his beard..

Besides kings peak was there any steep or dangerous cliffs you had to cross during this journey

If I found myself doing the AT (even a section of it) as a BUSINESS trip... I'd be LAUGHING😃 and absolutely loving life❤️💛💚!

Can I use successfully a 3/4 length pad with a quilt?

Nah never agreed with this type. Slow and steady wins the race. Enjoy views enjoy the time. But to each their own

I've always been a pants guy. But I did a 100 mile hike and brought shorts as a backup/change. When I actually used them they were great and I think its going to be shorts going forward.

Thank you for your time and posting. I like Marino Wool Costco socks; 60% Marino Wool and 4 socks for $13.

Rue McKenrick is the man! His stories are always entertaining

I shidded and pizzed in my sleeping bag should I wash it or let it ride? Maybe next season I wash it?

In jungles of the Africa and South East Asia invested with mosquitoes so much that one might have to use head nest?

A video about how you are trying to be sustainable as you develop a cooking system that uses single use plastic for every meal... glad this system never caught on

When I was young I could just hike for hours. Now that I'm in my later 50's, taking more frequent breaks as suggested by Tayson helps a lot. Also, I often hear people say that when you hike big miles, your not "smelling the roses". I disagree with this statement. Not only are you seeing, hearing, smelling your surroundings as you are hiking, you are also stopping in 6 different locations for breaks and to camp where you get to just lay around enjoying where you are at.

Did you get a Frosty?

Did you do the AT?

Best tips I've seen on youtube... Gonna use this on an 88 mile pct section hike. Love your gear

Thank Freya someone with a brain made a review/myth bust on this.. thanks for existing.

Surface wetting does not mean it's not waterproof. Goretex is still waterproof without the DWR.

Turn your sleeping bag/quilt INSIDE OUT to let more air of the bag....

Understandable. The camping in Torres del Paine is a nightmare.

Excited for your thoughts and ideas on things other than OV.

Super inspiring, man. That T.S. Eliot quote definitely just went into my "philosophy journal." Thanks for sharing your reasons and your hesitations. Really good stuff. -Phillip

This is really cool. And a really cool way to break into that world. Well done.

I use both, my issue has been using using bottles and having easy access, and which case like most things, if I can’t get to it, I am not going to use it. But like most people have said here only clean water goes in that bladder. I do bring a bottle for drink mixes and I use an ultralight Nalgene wide mouth for this, I hate filtering water and trying to get it into the small bottle holes and if that means I spill some on myself while hiking then so be it. Just like the versatility of a Nalgene for other uses as well.

Great advice. Thanks.

Also I recommend Jocko Hydrate for Hydration sticks. They are meant for extreme rehydration.

Just David Goggins it. Full out 100 miles with minimal training. Just keep going, it’s all mental.

Outstanding video and how teamwork can pull and push you along and actually learn about your own strategies.

Thanks so much for your videos! Training for Leadville this summer and I was a little stressed about the Grand Canyon but doing rim to rim to rim over two days now feels achievable with your info to help me prep. ✨✨✨

nice video and beard

It is more difficult to sleep on the side or the stomach in a hammock.

Those "axolotls" were juvenile tiger salamanders. There is no plan to release axolotls into Colorado alpine lakes

A foolish trip! You NEVER split up a group! You should have taken extra food and planned for a longer trip so Joe could go at a slower pace or take a day off.

Thanks for the video but i gather this is geared towards rhe colder months. Im looking for something for the warmer nonths for packing on my summer vacations. Is smartwool and darn tough socks suites for those months are well or can i get better recommendations?

This isn't even true (at least it is misleading). If DWR _only_ failed because of wearing off, then that would be acceptable to most people. However, DWR will fail THE FIRST TIME YOU WEAR IT IN HEAVY RAIN for half an hour or more (plus or minus a little depending on the jacket). That is a much greater problem than wearing out.

Great vid guys. 2 questions, how much did your packs weigh? And, what were those hoody shirts you guys were wearing?

If you like headlamps grab the Nebo Mycro 400, lighter than the nu25 and it comes with the hat clip too

This was really helpful. Thank you very much
