I'm about to marathon these vids, I'm so excited to watch your second thru-hike! I just watched your first documentary the other day and loved every minute. Your on-camera presence is a breath of fresh air, you make watching this whole journey really fun and interesting. Happy hiking! I hope to one day do similar adventures. 🌄

Always helpful info! Thanks!!

Lucked into a Hyperlite Southwest 70 in an REI in Salt Lake City in their 'garage sale' section ... had been returned because it lacked load lifters. I believe it's priced about the same as yours, but I got it for $199. Have taken it out twice now, and love it.

@Nleary77 Год назад

So proud of you !!

Good luck on the hike, I'm looking forward to your adventures.

Excellent presentation, very clear, good to have the comparison from your earlier gear. Very helpful to have your voice of experience!

@TWolf317 Год назад

I love this gear review. It's just the right amount of detail for me. This gear all sounds great.

@freeheel748 Год назад

Looking forward to it Taylor. Good times ahead!

@coastalfarmhouse1820 Год назад

I watched your entire hike in 2021 and I’m so excited to watch you again! Let’s do it!!

@stillwaterhiker Год назад

Hi Taylor. I have that Neoair sleep pad. Love it and its been awesome 113 days on the trail. Good luck.

@ScottWilliams323 Год назад

great review of your top 4

@hikingwithstephen Год назад

I bought the same backpack after your first video on it. I’ve done a few overnights with it and I LOVE it. I’m excited for you to use the pack.

@PICARDY610 Год назад

THANK YOU FOR THE INSPIRATION AND THE COUPON CODE! MADE MY PURCHASE A LIL MORE AFFORDABLE. HAPPY TRAILS

@thedirtyknobs Год назад

Cool stuff

@freddukepoo3359 Год назад

I’ve tried a few down quilts but i have to say the Sierra Design 35 degree is my favorite. I’m a hot sleeper and when the temps drop to the 20’s i was good. They also have a feature where there’s an opening for your head to keep it covered… game changer!

@cwesley2005 Год назад

You inspired me to hike the NJ portion of the trail! Baby steps 😀

@OneEyeHikes Год назад

After carrying the HMG 3400 on the CT last year, I’m a fan of their packs. Also, I’ve used assorted and many tents in my time. ZPacks quality, function and service have me hooked. I used an Altaplex last year and recently switched to a Plex Solo after realizing the Durston Xmid solo was not for me. Good luck on another AT journey

@KrizAkoni Год назад

Looks like some nice changes to your gear! 🤓

@tvtoms Год назад

I really like the prospects of the solo plex. I'd be curious to know if you see more of those than duplex this time around. The inside looks plenty big for one hiker plus gear. Nice to see the pricings too, very interesting.

@lynelljansen8057 Год назад

I'm curious as to why you don't just re use the gear from the last year? good luck. I usually am following someone on their through hike via utube, but this is the first year in a while , I haven't found anyone to watch. Who is everyone else watching. So Taylor, you're it. lol.

@carmenhernandez6102 Год назад

So excited to follow your journey again. The famous Mountain House Lasagna!!

@kimd9059 Год назад

I freaking love your videos 😅 but it’s an emotional roller coaster because it just makes me want to get back out there! Lol

@anadventureoutdoors Год назад

i love that pack//// i am debating on this one....love me some hyperlite 2400 so i know ill love this one.

@lisawoodward1892 Год назад

Hi Taylor! Watched your whole ‘21 thru & can’t wait to follow your ‘23! I have penciled in an AT thru for ‘24 and have been researching the top 4! I have the page with that EXACT same pack opened on my phone as it’s one of my faves! So I think THAT was confirmation as THE one I need to get. (I just hope the smallest size will fit my short torso correctly!😬 AND I hope that white doesn’t get TOO yucky lol!) Anyway, will you use a pack cover for rain? If so, which do you recommend? Thank you! Lisa

@popeyehikestheappalachiant2699 Год назад

I switched out my Zpack, for the Hyperlite 3400. I like your mesh better, as mine kept unstitching. Hyperlite sent me two replacements, so now I have three, LOL. Curious as to how your bag works. I used my Kelty mummy bag (20 degree) for most of my thru hike, changing to my 30 degree quilt in Virginia, until the Whites. Good R value, on your pad. I am sold on my Nemo Tensor (only 4.2 R value). Nemo's return policy was a good feature. I sold my Duplex and Nemo Hornet 2 (swapped them out on trail) and have ordered the Xmid 2. Can't wait to try it out. Fellow New Hampshirite, looking to do some magic this year. Maybe I'll see you. Happy hiking.

@abomb207 Год назад

Curious to see how the Unbound works for you. I’m considering picking one up with the intent on using it for multi-week trips.

@kellycarlen9605 Год назад

Very nice kit. Looking forward to you getting out and putting your new gear to the test. I’m a bit concerned about the “trash pocket” on the pack idea though. If some of your snacks rub off the wrappers onto the pack it would seem to me the scent would be a rodent magnet and you’re going to get your really expensive pack chewed if the trash pocket starts smelling like chocolate and nuts.

@jasonthomas51 Год назад

Man, I saw the lasagna with meat sauce lurking in the back & chuckled…then you had the outtake in the end and I died 🤣🤣🤣

@blackmountainadventures Год назад

Great little review. Not exactly sold on the HMG pack, it looks like they have just copied most the features on the Atom Pack Mo. I ditched my Thermarest because I find it really uncomfortable for side sleeping and switched out to the R5.

@RickINFJ Год назад

Nice sleeping bag! I paused to read the factory specs you put up; it was very impressive. You didn't skimp on these very important core items, and you're very wise for doing so. Thank you for the detailed video! ✌️

@lablover02 Год назад

I wish this backpack had the adjustable shoulder straps… I really liked the pack but it hurt my shoulders after 6 or 7 miles

@deerless999 Год назад

I am so indecisive on my shelter for my ‘25 attempt. Hammock ( my normal) , duplex, Altaplex…now Plex Solo 😡… and the Xmid pro 1 or 2…. Obviously way to much money to try all…..but I have time. Thank you for this video ! I’ll be watching.

@jonsanford2515 Год назад

I have a standard Durston x-mid 1p. There’s just enough floor space for 1person plus a few items inside the netting. The headroom inside the netting, and vestibule space makes it feel way less claustrophobic than a typical 1p tent, and there’s more than enough covered space for gear outside the netting. Both x-mid sizes are super simple to set up. For normal everyday use, the 2p pro isn’t much more expensive, and doesn’t weigh much more than the 1p pro. I’d say go for that, over the 1p for the extra interior space. However, the 2p x-mid has a really large footprint (for a 2 person tent). Parts of the AT don’t have a lot of flat space. The size of the x-mid pro 2p might occasionally limit where you can camp. So, I’d recommend the 1p, between the two for the AT specifically.

@deerless999 Год назад

@@jonsanford2515 thank you ! I am leaning towards the Xmid Pro 1, mainly due to that footprint size.

@sedonatvcom Год назад

i've been considering hyperlite but unsure of comfort at higher weights.

@rumblechick73 Год назад

I was wondering if you gave any consideration to the Dan Durston XMid Pro tent?

@handwerkerausleidenschaft574 Год назад

Have you already a planned start date for your hike? Would be interesting for me to hear your recommendation for your start date, I am planning to hike the AT in 2024.

Everyone should check out Hammock Gear bags if they have not, same quality as these $400 plug bags at half the price.

@carmenhernandez6102 Год назад

What hip belt did are you using ? Looks very comfortable..

@TheNypenfan Год назад

You’ve got more time on trail than I do, but I never understood using your sleeping pad against your back to protect your back from pointy stuff. I’m always scared of little punctures in the pad and I protect it as much as I can.

@Justusson Год назад

Ditto - my thoughts too. Being that light I’m thinking it might be harmed easily too,..?

@TheNypenfan Год назад

@@Justusson supposedly that pad is actually quite durable….but I still just don’t like doing that.

@richardinjapan4578 Год назад

Similar concern. What's the guarantee on the product, if any?

@TaylortheNahamshaHiker Год назад

Haha, noo I just thought it'd be funny to feature

@Andy-Mesa Год назад

If you're using 10 stakes it's not actually the lightest tent. X-Mid Pro 1 uses 4 stakes which makes up for the 2 oz difference. That's splitting hairs though.
