This channel is all about backpacking, camping, hiking, gear, reviews, and learning the basics. We have a great community here and also look forward to talking with others and learning. For third parties please contact frozensoutdooradventures@gmail.com for sales or promotions. I am very picky about who I work with however. Relevant quality products over earnings.
Honestly using a double hitch knot that can be readjusted whenever is something that will save you money & headaches in a variety of situations aside from just the hammock! 😁☯️🤟☮️🤙
it sucks having to skip some miles, i hear bigfoot about the having it end a week sooner/ that's a tough one / but overall wow you two sure had an awesome adventure, you got to see the best stuff in pretty good conditions/ the snow was tough for you but we are so thankful for the water. It's a lot easier to come back and have it be snow free than to come and see it with snow so you got the cooler views i think, especially compared to last year where the snow was making it near impossible/ you got an extra adventure and snowy scenes, tougher but i think worth it where last year/ that was just plain brutal for people. what a road up the mountain here wow, glad you had a capable driver! ... really is too bad you had to cut it a little short but glad overall you had a pretty darn good hike ... been holding off on watching these last couple vids because i didnt want it to end either.... man you got some beautiful mountain scenes in here thanks/ ps did you guys ever use inciweb ? occurs to me a bit late here, that is the most current place for fire updates. may not be perfect, but is usually most accurate for future reference search inciweb
I have like 10 atoves and take the BRS3000 like 90% of the time. Always worked as expected. I do not put it on full blast as if it is too exaggerated power concentrated in a tiny spot. Works great, is fast, light and packs really well. What's not to like.
Hitting it in April. You're absolutely right..Go for Your dreams before You head out. You and all the other thruhikers vlogging inspire Me on days of doubt. Thanks man. (Enjoyed the little jam)
My biggest mistake trying to use a quilt from ROSS instead of using my standard 20 degree LL Bean mummy bag. Was cold throughout the night. The grand trunk under quilt adds darkness and warmth. Worthy addition
If you figure the amount of fuel that you use it is not a lightweight stove if you have to carry three cans of fuel compared to the one with the pocket rocket and this is my personal experience. It is a fuel guzzler
I purchased the Soto amicus for a PCT thru hike this year and found the BRS to be more efficient than the Soto. I think most people are idiots turn it up too high for their pots.
Just found the channel a few days ago, and finished the whole PCT series. It was increadible to see the views and follow the trail with you. Very inspiring. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to theu-hike the PCT too!
First off, thank you for the PCT video adventure - - I really enjoyed watching your entire journey. Secondly - I'm not sure where you are these days, but when I was hiking out of the Wildcats-Carters-Moriah portion of the AT the other day I stopped to thank a trail crew heading in on the Rattle River section of the AT to do some trail work and there was a dude who looked exactly like you - - was that you? If not, you have a double.
In one your videos you mentioned something about your rules of safety when picking a place to stop when eating lunch. Can you please share more about what you mean?
I agree with the user interface being too complicated. That's why I got the UL21 instead. No separate 'flood' and 'spot' to mess with. Also a bit less power and battery, but still plenty for me. Added bonus: The red light is less bright. I also have an H68 (which has two power settings for the red light) and on high I find it too bright for reading. The brightness of the UL21 on red is in between the two modes on the HC68. Edit: The 2024 'NU20 Classic' looks like it's the direct descendant of the 2017 NU25, but it's hard to get in Europe.
A rain jacket with membrane backing & fully taped seams should do the jobs of most situations. I am selling proper rain jacket at Amazon and find people really like the cheap rain jackets. Those cheap rain jacket only have thin coating & without any seam taped outsell a lot than mine. They will be 100% leak even in light rains, but they could sell 10,000pcs per month! Seems the customers don't care or they don't know ? How could the jacket protect you in the rain if no seam taped! Many people consider DWR as waterproof, and don't know DWR will be faded and washed off! Quite frustrated and thinking if should join them to sell the cheap rain jacket as well.
Unbelievable - what a trip, what a tour, what an adventure, what a spectacular awesome nature and landscape!! I`ve been watching your trip from 1st episode one from border to border and I had tears in my eyes when you and bigfoot entered the monument in Canada ;-)! you did an awesome job and this will stay in your mind and heart for the rest of your life! all the best from the Austrian Alps and big congrats Gregor
I paid $65 for the micro, at the time the sawyer squeeze was $96, saved $30 Bux so I could afford a stove and pot set. I'm just getting started, I think it'll do fine for the hiking I do, seems the only complaint is an extra time. Hiking with a buddy this weekend he has a sawyer squeeze I'm excited to see the difference side by side.
I’m new to backpacking, and I love your channel Frozen! I use it daily catching up on the early stuff, and still plug in the newer also. We live fairly close to The Cranberry and Dolly Sods area, which are two that are coming up soon hopefully.
the banning ham9cks in state parks is a sad joke the forests are burning to the ground becas of bad park management now ban hammocks camp now before the forests are gone
Thanks for everything you've done and shared with us, I'm incredibly grateful. I hiked the AT in 2023, and when I was beginning to prepare for that in the second half of 2022 I was still dealing with my depression that really peaked in 2022: watching your AT videos during those times really helped me prepare, get excited, and cope all at the same time. Now I'm slowly preparing for the PCT in 2026, and again you're helping me: I'm incredibly grateful once again and I'm so happy for you that you got to do the PCT, congratulations dude to you and to Bigfoot 🎉 As someone aspiring to do the PCT in '26 I'm thinking a lot about potential start dates, fire closures, and conditions in the Sierra, so here's my question: Hypothetically, if there were no limitations whatsoever and you could pick any start date you wanted, knowing what you know now, would you have started earlier and hiked through a harsher Sierra to try and beat the wildfires? What other challenges might that have brought? Sorry, I appreciate that my question is a bit tricky, and apologies if it's a silly question, but I'm based in Belgium and I'm not familiar with the US west coast at all. Thank you for everything once again! 🙏🏻 Sticky Fingers ✌🏻
just wanted to give a shout out to a little trick ive learned in the past , for butter you can usually go to any kfc a few days before your departure and ask for a few packets of butter and get them for free as well as honey, the knorr milk based meals a trick is to use a packet of mayo instead.
