My Gear for the Pacific Crest Trail: what I started with

I show you everything I carried with me from the start of my Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) thru hike. I used mostly gear that I already had from my many previous hikes, but did upgrade a few items. I also made some changes along the way and a debrief gear video will be coming at the end of my Pacific Crest Trail series.
This is not an ultralight set up, even though some of my items are ultralight gear pieces. I have been trying to lighten my pack for a while, but I'm still far from ultralight. My desire to have certain comfort items and camera gear definitely add to my pack weight.
When I did my shakedown hike a few days before my start date on the PCT I weighed my pack with 2 days of food and some water in it and it weighed 25 lbs. I didn't weigh my pack ever on the PCT, I just never seemed to find the opportunity. So, I'm sorry I won't have an accurate pack weight for you!

What I love about the way you did your videos is that we all get to do the hike twice. It's like we got all the previews and now we get the full length and i assume you got to enjoy your hike with less pressure to post.

This is the video that I was most looking forward to. Great job explaining what you selected and including the rationale behind the selections.

This was the video I was most looking forward to, thank you! Will be curious to know what you finished with and if you added or swapped any layers for warmth.

It is truly sad that i cant get to Hawaii from the mainland with one suitcase. I just went and took 3. 🙄🙄🙄 those did not include any bedding, food, or tents. I am gonna way condense next time. You showed me i could! Good luck!!!! 🍀😊

What was the weight of your pack once you hit the trail? Great video- thanks!!

@nvtruant5994 4 месяца назад

You’re an inspiration!! Can you tell me your pack weight once fully loaded for 5 days? Thanks

How was crossing the border into the USA with all your gear like and did you run into any issues (i.e. bear spray)?? Love your channel

What would you eat for breakfast and lunch?

@glenloewen7507 6 месяцев назад

I see that a lot of people go with 2 person tents so they have the extra living space. I was just curious, how did you find the XMid Pro 1? I’m also curious how comfortable you found your UL pack.

Hey! Is your arcteryx synthetic jacket the Atom Hoody or Heavyweight? I have the atom and am wondering if it will be warm enough with a fleece. Fun to see your videos! I start the PCT this week :)

@briannorwick 4 месяца назад

So exciting!! Have fun on your hike!! I'll do a quick answer until Krys sees this. I don't know the full Arcteryx line-up, but her jacket is the 'Arc'teryx Atom AR Hoodie - Women's' If you have other gear questions, she's also listed all of her gear on her website, link in the video description :) Happy hiking!!

After all these miles on the trail, what are your impressions of your Sony ZV-E10 Mirrorless Camera and the Sony E-Mount 11mm f/1.8 Lens? I sold my Nikon D7000 because it was too heavy :( I opted for a small Sony RX100 III which I really like despite the fixed lens. The only thing missing is the ability to interchange the lenses. So I'm thinking of buying a second camera that would allow me to use various lenses.

Wow So much kit , you should check out Jupiterhikes packing list . The ultralight guys seem to hike with nothing more than a plastic bag 😂

What was your impression of the light blue hiking shirt throughout the hike? Did that shift at all? I'm in the market for a good lightweight long sleeve- I've always done t-shirts +/- a long sleeve sun shirt!
