Jay, I use a Big Sky International Insulite pouch. The reason I got it was for keeping meals warm while cooking like your Repack but I also use it to store my water filter in. It insulates it from freezing so you have a piece of gear that is providing multiple uses. I also use the insulite pouch to carry cold items on the way out of town to keep them cool. Good luck with your hike.

@MishapAmethystHikes 2 года назад

I'm not sure if I missed why you store your fuel canister upside down, but I think that if you stored it right-side up then your stove will fit into your pot with the lid all the way on? I like the paper towel trick! We use a kerchief for about the same purpose, but also to wipe the moisture out of the pot. I really wish I'd gotten a spoon instead of a spork because of the same reasons you mentioned, plus it's a bit easy to poke a hole through the plastic bag with the tines on the spork. I'm not willing to switch because it's still FUNCTIONAL, but if I lose my spork 🤨😜... buh-bye spork and hello spoon! I also like the little trick with the rope-to-clip trick on your food bag - I'm gonna borrow that one for our use too. Great review and video, thank you for sharing. And as always, good luck & GO #ATclassof2022 !

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

I keep the canister upsid down primarily so the bottom of the canister doesn't rust. I also like the concave opening where I can put all my stuff. Used to work great before but my stove is a little bigger now.

@RoguePreparedness 2 года назад

That's a cool trick with the fuel canister and paper towel. Those are the type of 'hacks' we need! I love all the thought process you've put into all this. Excited for your trip!

@tomnoyb8301 2 года назад

Interesting thing about drops; they are uniform size regardless dispenser. Size of the drop is determined by surface tension, not dispenser-tip. Another interesting fact is that virtually all drops have a tiny follower-droplet (which violates the first principle right off-the-bat) and it is almost impossible to produce water drops without those tiny follower-droplets. Theoretically, Part-A drops (HCl & water) might have a slightly different surface tension than Part-B drops (NaClO2 & water), but this author would ignore that and just assume water dominates, and all drops are identical.

@rickneece7554 2 года назад

Haha…Spoken like a true vlogger. " if a bear gets my food, I’m gonna get some footage of that”. Looking forward to your journey.

@gregfrommaryland7030 2 года назад

Another great video! As for the Ursack, I thought about putting a jingle bell of some sort to hear the bear messing with it. Also, if you take a small trash bag, turn it upside down and poke a hole through it, you can pull your ursac cords through it before you hang to keep it dry.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

The bag idea sounds good. I may do something similar m and a trickle line just above the hole or something.

10 days left! Can't wait to see you out there! I use a light bandana in stead of the paper towel. Have burn marks on it from blowing up a lighter in the pot when I didn't realize the burner was still hot and set the pot down while I finished eating. Great story with my son!

@roaming_bob8591 2 года назад

Paper towel for cup/canister is awesome idea.

@chrispiatt2235 2 года назад

Nicely done, Jay - I always enjoy people sharing their thoughts on the fundamentals. I lost my spoon on the Superior Hiking Trail and ate the rest of my meals with a tent stake, which worked surprisingly well. It was one of the ground hogs, so more surface area to capture food with, I guess. I do eat out of my pot though, and I'm sure eating out of a bag with what is essentially a spike may be difficult. +1 on having a loop tied on the tab of the food bag. Cheerio!

@joannemaass5068 2 года назад

I always love your videos. I hiked the Tahoe Rim Trail last summer and had a bear chew up my ursack. It was tied to a tree above my head with figure eight knot. The mother bear chewed and slobbered all over the bag and pulled so hard I had to cut it off the tree trunk. My food was ruined and the bear wouldn’t leave the camp site. Lesson learned, if a bear is in your site they won’t leave so you have to leave. I would hang the ursack. It’s scary when they enter your space at 3:00am. Good luck!

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

Ursack's web site also showed a quicker release knot but with a big carabiner. I wonder if that would be even more nonjamming since I really want to avoid cutitng the line. My knot app shows the figure 8 as a jamming knot. I wonder if I can try one of the nonjamming knots and if it'll hold the bear bag as securely. I've heard that a bear saliva soaked bag can stink pretty hard. I'm not looking forward to that.

@johnherbst1553 2 года назад

Buy a bottle of rust-oleum Shield H2O and treat the bear bag. It makes it virtually water proof.

@jinxhikes3021 2 года назад

After many hikes carrying my polished bowl spork, you have convinced me it's time to move to ditch the spork and switch to the spoon. I've come close to popping holes in things with my spork and honestly, those tines are not doing much for me. Thanks for laying out such a good argument!

@CrossoverGenius 2 года назад

I really love my MSR deluxe… If you are only boiling water it may not be worth it, but if you are interested in cooking in any way, it is as good as a stove in your kitchen. The piezzo lighter is a fun perk too, it works great. Take the time to sit with it to fold it up, kind of like a Rubiks cube, it makes sense once you know the pattern.

Good call with the Evernew. The AT can get a bit busy at times, especially on the weekend. Having the option to dry camp opens up a lot of potential camp spots that the crowds will tend to avoid.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

Good point. Lots of people on the AT probably have never dry camped before. Nice, peaceful undesired campsites just for me.

@BB-ql3gz 2 года назад

@@JayWandersOut That was my experience, especially from Springer to around Damascus. A lot of folks get very attached to the comfort/familiarity of the Shelters which can lead to them getting totally overrun. Hopefully you'll avoid a lot of that with your early start.

Yep, expecially if you know you'll be in cold a lot it's worth it. Some people have used the copper band to warm the canister but I felt like I'd do something wrong with it.

@cheri7828 2 года назад

If you're going to buy another set of AquaMira then keep your existing bottles for your premix solution. Your drop size coming out should be correct. Put a small piece of duct tape or somehow mark it so you know its the premix and not the A or B. Also, to keep my pot from rattling, I use part of a lightweight Pac Towel . I use the same towel to wipe off condensation. Double use!

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

Good idea about the old Aqua Mira bottle. I think a small enough rag for my pot would be too small for my condensation. :) Joking, I mostly use my rag to wipe ice off my tent.

@cheri7828 2 года назад

@@JayWandersOut yeah, I use the Toaks 650 it is small, but the bit I use fits in there, cushioning the stove so no rattling.

@wisenber 2 года назад

Most of the water for the first 500 won't have much in the way of sediment if you look. It will be COLD this weekend. The Smokeys already had to airlift a hiker last week as he got hypothermic after a couple of feet of wet snow at near 0 F temps. CC skiing was decent on Roan last week with just under three feet, but the 40 mph gusts on the exposed ridges will let you know it isn't spring.

Jay - I like the idea of using the Aqua Mira during winter backpacking. I never really gave it a thought and always slept with my Sawyer Squeeze.

Hi Jay. I’m a bit late to this video but I thing the droplet volume is the same regardless of the dropper. It’s based on viscosity and surface tension.

@@JayWandersOut Just looked it up and you’re right, the dropper size does influence droplet size.

@WALKITOFFDavidSmith 2 года назад

Great info, Jay. I didn't know about the different mixes in the fuel cannisters so I'll definitely be more mindful of that going forward. I have the HMG pouch too and like it. Thanks for sharing.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

The good cansiters are isobutane/propane (MSR, Jetboil, Snow Peak) and you'll see all the more generic ones like no name or Walmart brands are all butane/propane. When it's warmer they should be fine. Some stoves don't like the Walmart types though because the valve stem is deeper than standard so some stoves can't press the nozzle. I always forget which work and don't.

@rivetingadventures5450 2 года назад

Great video. I ditched my Toaks 750ml for the Snow Peak 900ml so that I could carry the 8oz fuel canister. And it still has room for the pocket-rocket as well. Plus, I get almost a liter of water with the meal.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

That's a lot of water! So far the 750ml has been the right amount. I wind up stuffing random food items into the pot if I wind up with an 8oz. It's crazy the mark up cost between an 8oz to a 4oz per oz.

@babyboomerbackpacking 2 года назад

Thank you for validating my decision to take butter for my oil. So many people I have talked with tell me it will spoil. I can remember my mother leaving the butter out on the table, so nicely it would be okay.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

Yes people still leave butter out but most people that think it needs refrigeration buy butter mixes not 100% butter which gets super hard when cold. I carried butter for weeks on the PCT and only stopped because once it warms up it becomes a big mess. It tastes so much better yhan olive oil. I only wish I could buy them in single sticks everywhere instead of boxes.

@middleearthchronicles2269 2 года назад

During the hot weather trips you can take ghee packets and they work great. You can get them as single serving size and are mess free without the risk of summer butter puddles.

First I love watching you. Just 1 concern I have for you. Heating food in plastic bags releases polymers into your body which have been known to cause cancer. Is there another method you can use? Just concerned. Thanks for making me laugh and all your great details of nature.

@user-ei1ym1lq6h 2 года назад

Yeah, I had the same concern with using the freezer bag. Is the original food packaging even safe? Most people I've seen just heat water in the pot and add the food. When they're done, they will add a little water, swish it around, use their spoon to clean whatever is left then drink it. I'd rather do that than trust the plastics not releasing polymers as you mentioned.

All good stuff to consider… I’m a Soto Windmaster guy but essentially, a regulated valve is the point you’re making. I have a BearVault and the same Zpacks food bag but haven’t made the investment on an Ursack yet. I use the same Evernew 2l bladder to which my Sawyer squeeze connects and as you mention, chemical treatment is an alternative especially in below freezing temps. All good stuff… looks like day 1 on trail is getting close… I think we are all looking forward to seeing you on trail… and possible footage of a ursack Bear ambush 😄👍🏼

@CloverHikes 2 года назад

I hike with a canister now, but when I used an Ursack, I would bring a plastic bag, small hole in the bottom, and feed the rope through the hole so the bag covers the ursack. It’s not 100% but it does help significantly. And no, the black one doesn’t dry more quickly.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

I've used the tablets as a test once. I do carry the tablets as backups but wouldn't want them on a backpacking trip due to all the garbage they would produce. I figure I would need at least 4-6L of water a day and the two bottles could treat 120L of water.

@JayWandersOut 2 года назад

Yep, I show it in a video. If it's upright all the weight is on the top chord by the narrow neck of the bottle and I've had bottles slip off before. You also have to really tighten it to hold the bottle. Upside down all the weight is on the bottom one and the thickness of the bottle holds it in place so both chords can be relatively loose. It's easier to hang the bottle this way especially with gloves. In winter it's nice because if it freezes the bottom is up so that will freeze first so the cap doesn't get frozen to the bottle.
