I love backpacking because it is an amazing sensation of having everything you could possibly need on your back. Also it is incredibly rewarding and it’s almost spiritual for me.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Yes! I love that feeling too. Hiking can be very meditative for me.

I've only been camping once but as a kid I used to bushwhack the state land that lay beyond our pasture with my younger sister. At the time she resented begin dragged along but thanks me now for giving her an appreciation for the great outdoors. She's off hiking every chance she gets. I've always wanted to do the CDT except I would like to do it by horse . As Gus McCrea said in Lonesome Dove "There's nothing like riding a fine horse into new country" All I have to do is get the horses and mules and convince my sister to join me on this crazy expedition. So why am I watching a backpacking video? First of all you have such great food ideas and cavalry has to eat the same as the infantry. Second I like a lot of your gear picks. Much of the gear that backpackers are using are being adopted by equestrians due to its light weight and ease of transport. Now instead of needing a string of a dozen or more horses and mules to carry your stuff you can just get by on just a single pack animal or even your riding horse. Congratulations Amanda, you've brought different types of outdoor enthusiasts together on just one channel. That's more than a lot of people can claim to do on Social Media. In the end weather we're utilizing wheels, hooves or feet we all got the same need to be somewhere that isn't covered over with concrete or asphalt. There's no reason we can't all enjoy the great outdoors in our own special way.

@caseyjones3319 4 года назад

Amanda, I believe this is the best video I've seen of yours sofar. The camera work was great and the music you used was perfect. As far as what I love about backpacking is getting a total recharge from being outside, going at my own pace down the trail less traveled and experiencing this creation called earth. We only get so many sunrises and sunsets, and I don't want to miss any of them.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Thank you so much!! I worked hard to edit this video and find the perfect music for it! As I mentioned in the video, spending time in nature has a way of recharging me too. I love it! Thanks for sharing. 😁

@rlhydn3438 4 года назад

What’s not to love about backpacking. The burn, the hunger, the sweat. The clarifying effect of walking on my thoughts and mood cannot be beat! It’s not just endorphins. It’s nature, oxygen and removal from ‘modern society’ and it’s complexities. I could and have lived out of my backpack, damn - so that’s why the suburban scene feels so damn heavy! A weekend haul absolutely energises me for the working week.. which in turn pays for hiking goodies

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

I totally agree with the clarifying effect of walking with my own thoughts. If there's something that stressing me out or I can't make a decision, I like to go for a hike and things always seem to become clear. Thanks for sharing!

@davidschauer8861 3 года назад

i love backpacking because of nature and challenges. in august i did a local backpacking loop called broken top loop with my cousin, uncle, and dad. we did summit, and went about 35 miles over 22 nights. it felt so rewarding to push myself, and seeing nature and camping outside feels amazing. it had some amazing lakes, and small things you notice along the trip can make it amazing. we had pretty sunsets, a night time thunderstorm, and it was the best backpacking trip i've had.

@AmandaMyOfficeBooks 3 года назад

I have never gone on overnight hikes, but love day hikes. It's getting back to nature, the smells, sounds and feeling of freedom. Away from normal day to day responsibilities.

@wecanseeu2 3 года назад

Just started backpacking this summer and we absolutely love it! Great exercise, beautiful scenery, feeling closer to nature, getting far away from the craziness of civilization lol. We’ve gone out 4 times so far and hope to get out at least one or two more times before it gets too cold.

@Wondering_Fireball 3 года назад

I love hiking because nature is a great stress relief. Being in nature you challenge yourself, live a simpler life style (for a short time) and view things most people who don’t go out in the wild never will see. It’s awesome!

@hilaryyoung5290 4 года назад

Great question! Lately I find hiking very grounding- I can hear birds singing, feel rocks in my shoes, smell the trees, and name the different types of trees I see. Time slows down for me and I can take a break from my thoughts or let them flow. Going for a walk is simple to do and you don't need any "stuff". Taking time during the day makes all the difference!

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Yes! I love how "in the present moment" I become. Simple things like the way light hits the trees truly amazes me. It's just so beautiful. Even on the days that I'm working on my computer, I still try to take a walk around the block during the day just to reset. Thanks for watching!

@render.prodigy9821 3 года назад

For me, the day goes by quickly. (Time flies when you're having fun)

@bettyjorodgers8552 4 года назад

Never been backpacking. I day hike with one of my sons. Love hiking. The woods make me feel fresh and unencumbered. More things seem possible. A good hike clears my mind and give me a feeling of accomplishment. God is good to have given us such riches where we can feel the benefits of space and nature. Always enjoy your videos. Thank you.

I have never backpacked before but love hiking and camping. Im drawn to it because I love the idea of just like "running away" almost and camping out. Like you can stop literally wherever you want to sleep then wake up and keep going. So so cool. I love your content, thank you so much!

@lucyrenz5076 3 года назад

I have been on a canoe trip, which is similar in a way, but instead of walking you paddle most of the way and can have heavier bigger packs because you don’t need to carry them as long. I love canoe trips because I just get to escape from the world and just live. I don’t need to think about politics, there is no news coming in we are so far out of service. I am only 13 years old, but when I’m canoeing in nature, I feel connected to Mother Earth, and like you, I too get a surge of energy after a few days in the wilderness. I watch these kind of videos because I was supposed to go to the boundary waters in Minnesota for 12 days with a camp, but it was cancelled due to Covid-19. I still got to go but for only 5 days and with my dad and my friend and my friends dad. Thank you for the video, I need to get back to the wildnerness to recharge.

Thank you for an awesome experience. I'm actually going on my first backpacking trip of the year this coming weekend so i'm very excited. The feeling of being able to walk as much as you want, sleeping under the stars and enjoying what this world really has to offer is something that not only feels good but I think is necessary.

@amanda.outside 3 года назад

I completely agree!! Not only do I truly enjoy backpacking, but I also feel like I need it. Especially looking up at the night sky. It always seems to energize me and put things in perspective. I hope you have an awesome trip!

I just found your channel during quarantine and I'm so hooked! I've only ever been car camping (which I started doing quite recently too) and I'm so excited to start backpacking soon! Something about going out into the quiet nature and away from it all for a couple of days sounds amazing~ Thanks for all the resources, this video was super relaxing!

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Welcome!! Being in nature and totally disconnected is something that I love about backpacking and car camping too!

@jslattery0405 4 года назад

What a gorgeous trip! I’ve only done day hikes, but I love the feeling of being deep in nature, and because I deal with chronic illness, I love when I’m relying on my body and it gets me where I need to go. After every mile I hike, I’m still in amazement at how strong it makes me feel.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

I agree that hiking has a way of making me feel strong even when I'm exhausted. Every hike makes me feel so deeply grateful for what my body can do. Thank you for sharing. 💚

@caitlynbouvette3966 3 года назад

I have spent my life being so reliant on other people and being dependent on other people for my well being and happiness. When I go backpacking...it’s just me. I am the sole person responsible for my day to day life and accomplishments

@HikewithJeet 3 года назад

Beautiful video! I love backpacking as it helps me get detached from the stress of daily life and makes me feel integrated with mother nature.

@jetmanwalking 4 года назад

Thank you for the wonderful video. The allure of the back country has always been the same for me, never wavering or faltering regardless of my mindset...or of obstacles, dangers, stresses or pressures. Experiencing life in it's simplicity, yet in such grandeur and beauty actually humbles me just enough to find access to the grace I need to be a better person. For me, there is treasure beyond value when the struggles of the trail, the technical planning, the aches and pains suddenly fade and the true beauty of the moment arrives like a drawn curtain. It happens for me on every adventure...I can also see it in your videos which is rare and unexpected.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing. Lately I've been focusing a lot on slowing down and noticing more, and I think it's really helped me to be more present and grateful for nature and the time I get to spend there watching the trees. It's such a wonderful experience!

@JerryArizona 4 года назад

My wife and I love backpacking for.....everything. The places we experience first and foremost. But even 'the suck' as we call it when you're miles from where you need to be gives a great sense of accomplishment once it's all done. I also like the photography and videography and even video editing. Let's me relive the trip. That trail was beautiful, by the way. Nothing like I've ever seen in Utah. So green! Looks awesome.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Right now everything is so lush and green! I was really surprised! I love the filming and editing side of things too. It's such a creative outlet for me. With each video, I challenge myself to try something new and get better. Thank you so much for watching!

I love backpacking because it takes me away the from busy routine many call life . . . away from cars, away from crowds, away from seeing any buildings . . . to bask in nature, listen to her music . . . the wind in the trees, the chorus of birds . . . and to watch the Nature chanel . . . and appreciate the handiwork of the Perfect Gardener.

@gooseswan29 4 года назад

I don't know if I can articulate everything I love about backpacking... I love the sense of adventure. The simplicity (especially compared to my normal work/home sometimes frantic life). I love the inimate connection with the earth and the scenery. I love the independence of it. I find myself getting gitty watching backbacking videos on youtube, or even geeking out over lighter or better gear. I like the nervous feeling I get the night before a long trip. I love to disconnect from my electronic life. (I'm a computer programmer...also live in Utah) I love the moments where I can be with friends and my fam without any pretense or distraction. I like the quiet moments and letting my thoughts carry where they will as I hike on. Those are a few of my thoughts on why I love to backpack. I admit I have often dreamed about doing one of the major thru hikes (PCT, CDT, AT), but I don't know how I could leave my life and especially work for 4-6 months. Who knows. Maybe I'll settle for doing the John Muir Trail section hike at some point. Great channel, amazing production. More backpacking vids are my request. :)

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

YES to all of this!! 💚Thank you so much for sharing! I've only done a small section of the John Muir Trail and I would love to go back and do more someday! In the meantime, we have a lot of great backpacking here in Utah and I definitely plan on making more backpacking videos this Summer! 😁

Just subscribed to your channel! I have been day hiking regularly for the last 3 years, but have not yet taken the plunge on backpacking. For me, it's being disconnected and really leaning into time for leisure and self reflection. I am starting with an overnight backpacking trip next month and I'm super excited. I just want to be as prepared as possible, and watching your videos have really helped me in my process. Much love and appreciation for your content, it's absolutely delightful!

@bennymouton5053 4 года назад

What I like about hiking. Hmm. I am in remission from leukemia for 4 1/2 years now. I started hiking as a form of exercise. Now, I hike many miles for the peace of mind it gives me. Every hike is different (even on the same trail) i often reflect on where I was before. During my fight, I spent at least a year of that in the hospital. Now, 20 mile hikes are part of my hiking plan. By the way, I love your channel. Keep up the good work!

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Wow, thank you so much for sharing your story. I agree that every hike is different, even if you've already done the trail. I particularly love to see the differences throughout the seasons. Right now it's Spring here, and everything is so lush and bright green. It amazes me every year!

@barbshubert9667 3 года назад

@paulatalese8945 4 года назад

I agree with Casey & Millie, your music and ariel pics are just breathtaking. I am not a backpacker but have just begun camping adventures. What comes to mind for me is seeing the unseen and being silent within your surroundings. When every corner or look to the left or right and even up brings you joy and a internal burst of WOW. Gorgeous area, Utah? Thanks to your friend Nick too!

@bradleyhontz5824 Год назад

Amanda, love the channel and heavily rely on your sage advice, thank you! What you're recommendation for water carrying on a 2-day backpack? Our last water source will be in the morning after breakfast; we hike 11 miles to our evening campsite, then we won't be near a water source again until 4pm the following afternoon (so say 30 hours without a water source). Morning coffee is a must and we'll be using backpacking food, which should be our only two water usages outside of hydration. What's a good target amount to carry, and what's the best method? (I have a 3L bladder, separate 1l and 2l bladders, and 32oz Nalgeeen type bottles). Thanks in advance!

@missshelly5342 3 года назад

For camping & backpacking its the scenery & jumping in the water for a swim after a good hike or adventure and the night sky with a fire that's the best☺

Excelent video! The cinematography and storytelling were great. The milage up and down those hills was impressive. My favorite part about backpacking is arriving at a remote, beautifull place in the wilderness and getting to spend the night there in comfort. This experience is made all the better because your own efforts to get there with everything you need. Keep up the good video work.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Wow, the scene at 7:36 is beautiful, with all the birds chirping and all the nature sounds at the same time too! I've only gone once backpacking as a high school trip during the start of the fall year and I absolutely loved it! I usually love doing stuff like that because for me it is energizing as well and just makes you feel like a whole new person. I also love seeing the beautiful nature sceneries that come along with backpacking (I love nature). It makes me feel in my element sort to speak. It would be nice to experience that again.

@AdventureOutThere 2 года назад

Beautiful backpacking trail! Is this Montana? Seeing amazing places like that in their purest form is one of the many amazing reasons to love backpacking. 😍 I’d also have to say I love it because I generally don’t have a cell signal while on the trail, which allows me to truly disconnect and be present in the moment. Happy trails!

As it turns out I am actually heading out on a 3-day solo trip myself tomorrow, and will be bringing a new camera with me to try vlogging the experience for the first time. You got some fantastic aerial shots that really show off the landscape. Utah looks beautiful. Reminds me of Colorado and the Sierra Nevada. Why do I love backpacking? Several reasons: 1) It's therapeutic. Life is just so much simpler and less stressful when you're disconnected from modern life and out in nature. There's nothing to do but walk, eat, and sleep. 2) I enjoy the solitude of being alone in nature. When my mind wanders I frequently come up with creative ideas and solutions to problems while I walk. 3) It's good for my health and I feel great after a long hike. That first shower afterwards is amazing. 4) You get to see beautiful places that can only be accessed on foot. 5) I enjoy learning new skills and being self-reliant in the wilderness. It's a fun challenge.

I love backpacking for all of these reasons too! I often get creative ideas when I'm hiking and if I'm ever having trouble making a decision, I like to go for a hike first and things usually become clearer in my head. And the first shower after a long trip - it's the best, along with an ice cold drink after a hot hike! I hope you have an incredible solo trip and have fun vlogging! Making videos is so much fun and a really cool way to document trips. Thanks for watching. 😁

I just booked my first backpacking trip for July! I can’t wait to disconnect, get out in nature, challenge myself, take a break from the routine, and collect some cool new gear. :)

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Yes! Being able to disconnect and be fully present are some of my favorite things about backpacking. I hope you have a great trip in July!

Great video and Such Beautiful scenery ! ⛺️❤️ 🌲 I love to hike the Alpine environments above tree line mostly, such a fascinating diversity of tiny life happening at high altitude, even in the year round snowfields. Can’t wait to get back to the Cloud peak wilderness area in Wyoming again this month. 🤗

I'm hoping to do some more backpacking in Wyoming this year! I went to the wind river range a couple years ago and loved it! Have a great trip!

ugh im itching to get out into nature. that trail is stunning. the ones around where i live are packed with people so it’s still iffy. fingers crossed my colombia hiking trip is still on schedule 🙏🤞

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

I couldn't believe how close this trail was to where I live, and how beautiful and uncrowded it was. We did go during the week so maybe that's why, but it was perfect! I hope your trip is still on schedule too!!

Why I backpack. I started over 40 years ago, solo hiking from age 16. I seem happiest in the backcountry, while seeing and experiencing things a lot of people never get to do. There’s nothing like cowboy camping alone, with the wind in the trees and the stars shining overhead. Like you, I sometimes need to recharge and backpacking does this for me. All of my hiking has been in the east, in Maine, the White Mountains, Vermont, the Adirondacks, and the Great Smokies. Your videos make me want to visit Utah. Where was the hike shown in this video?

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

Thank you for sharing! I grew up on the east coast and spent a lot of time in Connecticut, Vermont, and upstate NY. Utah is such a different place compared to where I grew up! The trail in the video is the Stansbury Front trail. Utah is unique because we have both lush green mountains and beautiful red rock in the desert. Definitely worth a visit someday!

I've never been but I want to go backpacking! I would love the extra time in nature. I love camping but have mainly done car camping.

I have not done any backpacking, but I want to start. I am looking forward to the benefits of being in nature and challenging my body. Thanks for the inspiration.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

You're welcome! For me, backpacking is so rewarding. I'm always so surprised by how much I can challenge myself and how good I feel after, even if I'm physically tired. Thanks for sharing and I hope you get a chance to try it soon!

@unpavedexplorer338 4 года назад

This was a nice adventure. I like the drone footage. I like backpacking because you have to work for your reward. Meaning that you hike to get to the point where you get to relax. That probably didn’t make sense. Take Care and Keep Exploring The Outdoors.

@amanda.outside 4 года назад

It definitely makes sense! There's something so satisfying about completing a hike and the reward of a great view or relaxing on a rock in the shade is the best! Thanks for watching!
