Backpacking Gear I bring on every trip 

The last two are the ones I could definitely see as being a big help. Thank you Backcountry Treks!

I switched too a micro Fibre cloth for my hanky, can totally relate to sweat burning my eyes

Along with the handkerchief/bandanna, I find a keffiyeh/shemagh is a must. It has a million purposes in every season and terrain. Ask me or look up some videos. Whether day hiking, camping, or backpacking, I’ll never forget at least one shemagh. I even use one of my shemaghs at the gym.

Cotton balls soaked in Vaseline. Just as effective, less weight and bulk.

Jerven bag , 550 cord , cellfoam pad , ferro rod , firebox , kleen kanteen , 360 outdoor knife , Savotta jääkäri M are the essentials for me.

I hope you reached the count. You need because this video was great looking forward to all your others.

Buffs are nice for heat and cold. Soak it for evaporation cooling. Keeps warm air in when chilly. Your bandanna does that too, minus snot.

Gorilla tape not the whole roll but some a million different uses and IMO works great for a firestarter

The inreach mini can also serve as a way for the Garmin app to pull location for phones with only A-GPS. I always have my 2 dogs with me, for them I carry a few pills from the vet, caprofen and a stomach med that is similar to Zofran. They also run whistle GPS, so a USB cable from whistle that can reset the devices and extra attachments points which are small and very light, and light weight extra collars. Rope can serve as an extra leash

The snot rocket misfire had me dying hahaha

Chair Zero, and 2 inflatable pillows. Comfort is a huge factor for me. I have pinched weight in many other areas in order to make room for those things.

Thank you for sharing

For years I have carried a 2x2 cotton square. Every thing I bring must have two or more uses. For the past 50 some years I have carried a 36" x 36" heavy duty cotton square. It is my wash cloth/Towel, emergency head, face and neck cover in extreme heat, wrap a major wound (which I have never had.) bed sheet, table cloth for feeling fancy, The square becomes my pillow case with my clothing inside. In the west we call that square a bandana not a hankie. On a whim I bought a 56" x 30" swim towel. I took out on my last bike tour I took the supersized towel instead of the cotton square and It worked great for multiple uses.

I take a Tushy Travel Bidet and top of the line TP! Its can be used directly on your butt, but I find its easier to just use it to wet a piece of TP and make your own 'wet-wipes'. (So really any water bottle/container will do), and I recommend bringing a good toilet paper, like charmin red or blue, (I like blue). The Charmin blue can handle being moistened without falling apart on your nether regions and is less waste/weight than wipes, (however I do bring wipes as well).. I also fill up the Tushy with hot water on cold nights and use it as a hand warmer. Tops BOB knife and Silky Gomboy. I can whip up a fire so fast using these two items, even when using just flint and steel.. but I do carry a lighter and some tinder as well. You can replace the hanky with a lighter pak towl? I carry two, one body size for my showers and a tiny one as a hanky to wipe sweat, snot etc.. its really easy to clean too.. Airblaster ninja suits. Great to keep you warm at night, but I also wear them with pants as 'normal wear' too.

COFFEE!

Good info always bring cordage micro paracord it's lite and still strong. Stay safe

You kinda look like James Hetfield the Metallica lead singer. As for "gear"-Vaseline, you can use it for Chafing and lip balm, plus the cotton ball firestarter. Baking soda for tootpaste. For a sitpad you can also just cut a piece of blue foam into a square. I sweat a lot also and last trip I used the Buff brand Buff as a sweat rag just didn't work very well, not absorbent enough.

nice gear man, more than enough !

Nice review. I also made a windshield cozy for my lunches. Freeze some component of your lunch, and it's all set until mealtime. I also carry a Kula cloth (pee rag), which works well for women. I also carry my Helinox chair... I'm old and love the luxury, and I'm willing to carry that 1 lb if it's appropriate for where we are going.

Hey, just found your channel, great content. I get really bad eye burn on my bike, and it's almost impossible to wipe while you ride. (unlike backpacking where you can wipe while you walk) I found these fantastic headbands and skull caps from a brand called Halo. You should check them out. They seem dorky, but I'm not a fan of fashion...so I'm just happy that they 100% stop the sweat in my eyes. They have a thin silicone strap at the back of the band that channels the sweat down the side of your face. Sometimes leaves a line on my head, but that could be the helmet pressure too? Either way, this thing works, so I'll recommend taking a look. I use it on every ride now, winter or summer.

I carry all of those. Although lately my suit pad has been replaced with a chair. I'm getting old. Chairs are nice.

Thanks for this and your other videos. How thick is the paracord you use for bear hangs?

Where did you get that cap?

Awesome video. I was curious where can you go backpacking for multiple days around here in PA ??

Do you put boiling water into your ziplocks? They don’t melt? I’ve been wondering about this because I just got into dehydrating my own food

DOOD!

Where did you get the T-shirt?

Watched this video. Loved the music intro. Dig the short and to the point style video so I subscribed. I was your 500th subscriber! 🤣😎💪🏼 Where’s my cookie??

Lmao 😆

I've just watched two of your videos, both very useful. I have just one tiny suggestion on presentation: the intro music is too loud; no need for that -- content is sooo good that the crappy intro detratcts from the (good) content. Just my two bits.

Knife man. Gotta have a knife.

A gallon bag for trash.
