@whatsnottohike 2 года назад

That's a great tip for the trekking poles as I have a 40l bag and it doesn't have trekking pole loops so will definitely do that. Great video, literally everything you need. Also, some extra bungey chord on the top or bottom of the pack would help secure a tent or a sleeping bag. Thanks again, happy camping!

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

Initially I had those loops to have somewhere that I could pop my tripod into to save me carrying it, It is really handy to have them ready to go. There are no loops to attach bungee cord to but I'm sure something could be modified to suit it. Thanks for watching, all the best 👍

@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX981 Год назад

Great demo on the capabilities of the 30L daypack there Jason! I have the exact same bag myself. You could easy stash 3 dehydrated meals in too. There's also the little compartment at the bottom, which seems to give you either an extra 2 -3 Litres capacity when extended or to store a folded Mil-Tec poncho or the great Andes 2x3m tarp and a survival kit & tin. You could also stash a spool of the excellent Atwood Micro Cord in, 30 metres+ on a spool, only 1.18 mm thick and a strength of around 100lbs. Excellent cordage with minimal storage.

So back to me trusty 50L job as usual... the search for the perfect compact pack continues.

@niksgee3538 2 года назад

Would this be cold in winter with that sleeping bag?? Good packing. Its a goal.

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

This would be a late spring/ summer loadout. The sleeping bag is only 3 season with a comfort of 6 degrees Celsius. Paired with a sleeping bag liner and some clothing it could get you down to about 2 or 3 degrees but I wouldn't go any lower than that. For winter you would need a sleeping bag rated to -6 Celsius as a minimum, it depends on the conditions you are going out in and you would need extra insulation layers than I have in this loadout. I'll do a lightweight winter setup closer to the coming winter, I still have a few bits to get myself to reduce my packsize 🙂 I hope this helps 👍

@jitkakahounova9547 2 года назад

Great tip for the walking poles! I was wondering would it work without the carabines? Just bungee cords?

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

The carabiners allowed for some extra clearance for my arm to move freely. I would say that you don't need them but that you would have to substitute them for a loop of string or an extra loop of bungee cord etc. Try it out and mess around with them until it is right for you, that is all I did. It took me a few trys to get them how I wanted. The thicker bungee cord for the top stopped mine from hanging down and bouncing around too much while I walked so maybe keep that in mind. I hope this helps 👍

@RamblingOn 9 месяцев назад

Hi Stephen, to be honest, I have no idea how much it weighed. I'd be pretty confident in saying that it weighed less than 10kg because my usual base weight is less than 10kg. You probably already know these but some ideas that can help save weight is a down quilt instead of a sleeping bag. Also if you use trekking poles already, then a trekking pole tent instead of a free-standing tent would save some weight. Carrying a water filter can save you having to carry an excessive amount of water. Best of luck with the hike, hopefully you get the weather for it 👍

@RamblingOn 9 месяцев назад

@stephenhayes4637 if that works for you and garauntees that you have water all the time then happy days. I'd be more inclined to check out water sources along the route in advance like rivers, lakes or shops. I'd carry the capacity to have 2litres with me but I would only carry 1 litre and fill it as and when I needed it. Then when I was going to set up camp I'd fill up both bottles which would be plenty to cook my meals and have breakfast the next morning. It's purely to save weight but if the weather's very hot and the water sources are scarce I'd do similar to you and have a larger capacity filled all of the time. It's better to have it and not want it than want it and not have it as they say

This is awsome but where do you put your water

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

I have it in a 1 litre nalgene bottle in the side pocket and I have a 500ml bottle in the other side pocket. Love that little bag 😀

What happened to your 40l decathlon backpack. Thought that would be comfortable without crushing everything into a 30l backpack😁. Really enjoyed the video.

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

I still have that, gonna be using that for the mountain camps and hopefully a 5 day hike I am planning for but this bag is class for going into the woods. There's nothing crushed, fits nicely inside. Being so small and plain black it draws a lot less attention than my other bags when I'm going into local woods that have a lot of trails on them and its also a lot more robust so if it got snagged on a tree it would just shrug it off 😁👍

@@RamblingOn looking to get the decathlon 40l pack but it is out of stock in shop. You can buy online but waiting to try on before buying. I like the features on it from your review of the pack.

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

@@colinhalpin2076 Decathlon wouldn't be great for having things in stock, at least in the Dublin store. I hope to use it on a 4-5 day hike soon and I'll do a load out for that and hopefully a 'long term' review of the bag afterwards but so far I would be happy to buy it again. I chose it over my Osprey bag all the time. The only time my osprey gets out is when I have to take my massive sleeping bag. Gonna sell that and get a smaller 50-60 litre bag, possibly from decathlon too. Oh and I bought the 20l version of the 40l quechua one I have because it just has all the features I want for less than half the price of other brands. Definitely a good idea to hold off and try it on first, hopefully you can get your hands on one soon👍

Hey Colin I am standing in Decathlon in Dublin and they have those bags in stock in the large and the medium sizes. Just thought I would let you know 👍

@colinhalpin2076 2 года назад

Ah thanks. Really appreciate that. Was there last week and there was none. Thanks again.

@pilgrim3387 2 года назад

Very good. How does the bag feel when hiking with the load in it. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

I haven't done any big hikes with it but it does sit quite high on your back and for bigger hikes a hip belt would be great which this bag doesn't have. I will try this bag out in the mountains sometime and see how it goes. I bought it primarily for woodland camps and found it very comfortable on those types of walks

@pilgrim3387 2 года назад

@@RamblingOn ah fair enough. Great example of how you can fit everything into a relatively small pack. Thanks for sharing.

@leeprice674 2 года назад

Great video Jason, I really need these tips 😳 I struggle to pack small like that. Thanks for sharing. Have a good weekend and stay safe 👍😊

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

I'm going to challenge myself to slim it down to a 20l load out 😱 Funny enough the bag that I just bought is 20l 😄 Have a good one 👍

What camping tent is that?

That is the Lanshan 2 👍

@aleemahsan4730 2 года назад

@@RamblingOn would you recommend this tent for four seasons?

@RamblingOn 2 года назад

@@aleemahsan4730 in strong winds it wouldn't be as structurally strong as a free standing tent. Saying that it has held up well for me in bad conditions. I would recommend it for 90% of the time but for really harsh conditions I would rather be out in a more substantial tent like a scarp one or even a cloud peak 2
