I really like that you are still using gear from years ago. Sends a nice message about using what you have, not spending a ton of money on the hot new thing, and being a bit less consumerist.

@adampetriw9224 5 месяцев назад

Your videos inspired me to complete 1600km (1000mi) of hiking this last summer. This next summer I will be attempting the Great Divide Trail in Canada as a solo hiker. I don’t think most people realize how much work goes into documenting your travels and making these videos. You’re an absolute legend at this point! My favorite piece of gear was hands down the Arc’teryx Cormac hoodie. It’s like the Ferrari of sun hoodies. Extremely lightweight, drys in a flash, absolute perfection. I took that thing everywhere with me: Canada’s coast line, subalpine and alpine, up mountains, on glaciers, in snow, rock climbing, etc. It’s incredible. On my adventures, I always kept thinking about your channel and how you would probably love one of these. It’s currently sold out, but you should consider getting one before deciding to make your own. When you wear one, and only one, garment for months at a time, you want it to be quality. I’m sending you this gift so you can buy one (hopefully they put out new ones in the spring, but you never know with Arc’teryx; they are not the heavyweight version currently on sale). I bought the Amazon version, and there was no comparison. That said, you are a humble and simple man that has showed all of us that expensive gear is not necessary for incredible adventures, which is something I loved about you from the beginning. This is a small way to say thanks… the inspiration you gave me, and so many others, over the years to finally get out there and have incredible adventures is ultimately priceless. Again, many thanks, from Alberta, Canada

@kraigadams 5 месяцев назад

nice to hear and have fun on that CA CDT

@CanadianSkylights 5 месяцев назад

Have a great time on the GDT. I did 900 km on it this year and made a video on my channel if you are interested!

@adampetriw9224 5 месяцев назад

Many thanks! I most certainly will check it out. Information can be scarce, so I most definitely appreciate it!

@raczyk 2 месяца назад

There brown bears on the GDT? If so what protection do you bring with you?

@adampetriw9224 2 месяца назад

@@raczyk Bear spray. I also have bear bangers, but probably won’t take those with me on the GDT. I’ve been charged by a grizzly bear and seen many, some too close for comfort. Firearms are not allowed nor are they required. Hiking in groups helps a lot, but I always hike solo. Good practice with food storage is also essential to preventing unwanted encounters. Most of the time, they do not want anything to do with you, but it’s important to understand some basic principles about bears, body language (predatory vs defensive postures), and how to respond appropriately. For me, a garmin GPS communicator is always nonnegotiable in terms of general safety in the backcountry. But at the end of the day, do not let grizzly bears deter you from enjoying the great outdoors! Our Canadian Rockies are vast and so incredibly beautiful! Or put differently, you are at much greater risk getting shot as a child in an American school than getting mauled by a grizzly bear… and a lot of Americans don’t seem to have issues with that. Hope this helps.

Hey Kraig! Thanks for putting in the effort of making a video about your gear. I love your vids, the soothing voice, nice shots, the music. Its a very, very calming experience to watch your content. I wish you a great year, lots of miles to hike and videos for us to see. Thanks!

@andytavs2890 5 месяцев назад

Thank you kraig, Very informative as I am looking at some new hiking gear. Going hiking in Azores Portugal in February. Then Latin America, peru, Chile and Bolivia in April. Your videos have inspired me plenty. Look forward to 2024

@bigbrowntrout1 5 месяцев назад

Excellent video! Thanks for sharing your best gear of the year. It's awesome to see items that work well for you that are on the cheap and some higher priced stuff that you've put through the ringer. The variety is helpful! Many thanks!

Can't wait to see the Waypoint 35 along with you for upcoming adventures!

@DagUTube Месяц назад

Great, and clear. Thanks! I still need the tutorial to pack everything (at least camping gear + clothes)n in this small bag

@panhandlejake6200 5 месяцев назад

Great gear list - the smoothies look like something to try. Another power option- -- I had only used power banks, also carrying a large one on longer hikes. Then I had one hike planned where I didn't think that even the large bank would be satisfactory - so I tested a small solar panel and it worked surprisingly well. I now have a 3 oz 6V panel that charges a 3 oz 5000 mAh bank. I was able to keep my camera, watch, InReach, a small MP3 player and phone (used minimally) all topped off. We had two straight days of drizzle where I could not use the panel and I was still able to finish the hike with a nearly fully charged bank.

@thebornos4203 5 месяцев назад

Me and my sis are planning to hike the Appalachian TRAIL! So this is helpful thank you 👍

@lf2334 5 месяцев назад

For anyone concerned about the cost of all of this, just buy the material, not the brand name. For example, the Path Projects Killam pants are 100% polyester. Polyester is a very cheap material to produce. It's literally plastic that has been processed and fluffed into fabric. Most of these brands are using marketing to trick you into thinking you need $100 pants for hiking. Just buy 100% polyester jogger pants and they'll be exactly the same give or take. There are a plethora of brands that sell polyester, nylon, spandex blends for very cheap. It may just not be a brand you've heard of, not sold at REI, and not marketed for hiking purposes, but at the end of the day, it's the same thing. Polyester is polyester. If money isn't an object for you, buy the expensive brands. Why not? The diminishing returns are huge though. After having several of these brands, I can't bring myself to pay what they ask anymore. It isn't worth it. I just buy plain items with no logos like the Amazon hoodie that he mentions in the video. It's just as good as my $90 Kuhl poly/spandex blend hoodie, and I'm confident it will last just as long. I've also climbed over 15 mountains and am an avid hiker, and I've always asked the guides what they wear. Roughly half just wear random branded items and often times it's very old gear. None of this is necessary, but if it makes you feel good, then go for it. I don't doubt that these things are of better quality overall, but again, the diminishing returns are massive. Buy what you can afford, and don't wear cotton. You'll be fine.

@benjaminstevens8641 5 месяцев назад

While generally I would agree with you when it comes to basic items for easy and not technical related mountain tasks I would have to disagree when it comes to high alpine climbing, mountaineering, climbing and ice climbing you get what you pay for and the cost is definitely worth it for some brands as it is rated for extreme conditions and rigorously tested to provide you with the best gear I would never wear a Costco rain jacket in Patagonia climbing I’m not trusting a shitty jacket that will fall apart and fail on me

@eric55406 6 дней назад

It's interesting to see both the updated gear as well as what is still favorite after being used for a while. That old favorite gear is actually the best recommendation as you must have tried different gear to realize what is best. I've dialed in my gear this past year and will be doing the Four Pass Loop in June 2024, inspired by one of your past videos 🙂

@JoaoRodrigues_photo 2 месяца назад

Hello Craig! I really love all of your hiking videos, they are truly inspiring and really well assembled. They give a nice calm vibe. I was looking for some shorts: do you recommend 5 inch or 7 inch shorts? keep up the amazing work buddy!

@jata1 5 месяцев назад

@crlan8434 5 месяцев назад

@vladd.i 5 месяцев назад

I got a Nemo Hornet after watching your old gear video but I had to return it to REI after the first trip in Norway because I didn’t find it suitable for conditions I usually camp in the Nordics. Not very wind resistant with a giant gap in the front, can’t easily pitch it fly-first so that’s an issue if it’s raining when you set up camp. Didn’t work for me but that’s okay.

@colinwalker-watson7219 5 месяцев назад

Excellent gear list. But one item that I never see is an eyemask. If you're in northern Europe, I mean close to the Arctic Circle, in July or August it gets light at about 3 a.m. And that early light always wakes me up through translucent tent material. With a comfortable eyemask - found in any airport - you will however need an alarm, but a good night's sleep is guaranteed.

Don't forget to mention that the most important thing you have is your body. Which keeps you in optimal conditions of flexibility and exercise to be able to do all those routes. Could you comment one day in a video on what type of maintenance exercise you do to keep your body up to date?
