Love the concept of being as light as possible but still saying "#$&k it!". If I want it with me, I'll sacrifice the weight. Creature comforts (no matter how small) can go a long way.

@stevenj6070 6 лет назад

Really enjoy your commentary Darwin. I really appreciate the gear segments. My wife, not so much. I spend too much money. Cheers, and hike on.

@robertcombs8664 2 года назад

Hi Darwin. I just wanted to thank you for your invaluable advice while I prepare for my 2023 PCT Thru Hike. With so MANY things to consider it's nice to keep moving forward on the list of things to do before I go. Your video's and reviews have helped a lot both logistically and motivationally! Cheers on your Hike! - Rob

@gabewaite7984 5 лет назад

dude your videos or invaluable. I'm 20 and hardly done any hiking apart from a 2 night D of E expedition. I want to hike the Pennine Trail (i'm in the UK) and this video is super super helpful. thanks!

@GustoStCool 6 лет назад

"Pants suck!" used to be my motto. Now, I'm not allowed at the mall anymore.

@c0r0y 6 лет назад

Why do so many hikers wear no pants? I mean there are pretty light pants out there. Pants have better protection from the sun, thorns, rocks etc. But maybe it's just me because I usually hike on trails with thick bushes and less trail. Without pants my legs would be scratched up after 100m. :D

@boulder89984 5 лет назад

c0r0y - I'm with you. We went for a two nighter and a 65 year old man wore tights and shorts the whole time. It was 35 at night and 60 in the day. No way I could do that. Have worn Kuhl pants for years and could not imagine wearing anything else.

@yung_lemon6314 5 лет назад

Gusto St. Cool 😎

@skiaddict08 5 лет назад

Tights>pants.....what???

@YJ-7 3 года назад

@@skiaddict08 for me it all depends on what trail I'm doing . But one things for sure , whenever I wear tights I wear shorts and the tights are never too tight like some people wear . I mean HOW !?. I mostly use pants to be honest . I like the Patagonia quandary because they're two in one, stretchy , water resistant and pretty durable .

@nick_401 6 лет назад

All the best to you on the PCT! That's something I wanna do too when I get out of the military. I'm excited for the weekly vids!

@backpacker3421 6 лет назад

I think you're going to love the UltraPod. I like strapping my to my pole and using it as a monopod or even to get low-to-the-ground shots.

@andrewj6231 6 лет назад

I'm so excited for your journey Darwin. I love what you're doing and the way you're doing it ... inspiring man.

It was nice running into you at mile 257 and sharing some TM.

@scottramsay335 6 лет назад

If your sleeping pad's already well-worn & was leaking before step one, you may have wanted to just get a new one. Of course, if it fails it won't kill you on spring nights in SoCal. Best of luck, brother!

@laurengoldrick3482 6 лет назад

@linzyweber7247 6 лет назад

So excited to experience this hike vicariously through your posts! Thanks for sharing!

@steveducell2158 6 лет назад

Cost of equipment is one consideration..... AFTER the hike, one can sell the Pack, Shelter for almost 1/2 to 3/4 of its original price on ebay. If you look on ebay sometime between November through February, you will see a number of Z Packs items up for sale.

@williamburton307 6 лет назад

Excited for you, and looking forward to seeing your trail videos!

@30-06 5 лет назад

Duct tape on trekking pole is a great idea. I had my supply of small roll of duct tape, whatever duct tape...and I started using t-Rex or gorilla duct tapes. Those provide the strongest adhesion and also work well to feed fire if needed.

@STEVENANDYJOHNS 6 лет назад

Thank you very much for posting this. It helped me a lot for an upcoming hike in 3 weeks. I appreciate it.

@bobmcelroy7289 6 лет назад

You are Awesome bro. I have been watching your videos and I really love them:) it makes me appreciate nature’s beauty a lot more now:) I’m camping more and doing more outdoors with my little son and wife:) keep up the good life

@rudyrodriguez2205 6 лет назад

I've always been confused about how to feed myself on these crazy long hikes. I always assumed only rich people could afford to do something like this. But now I think I might be able to learn to do this. I never tried a long hike like this because of feeding challenges.

@melvinhowell5469 6 лет назад

Good luck out there, brother! Enjoy!

@greenfeetoutdoors2779 6 лет назад

Darwin, thanks for video, I always find them informative and fun. I'll be following. Take care.

Darwin, would you mind posting a video of Snuggles’ pack list? As a female, I have tried to narrow my pack list down to your items, and find I missing a few creature comfort‘s. I am interested to know what Snuggles packs.

@daveybernard1056 5 лет назад

Bear canister is "must have" for Sierras. When rangers catch you w/o one, remember to enjoy the fine and being escorted out.

@HungaroExplorer 6 лет назад

Great video! I am planning to do the Koolau Summit Trail traverse here in O’ahu, Hawaii, and I will use many of the gear you suggested, because they work well in this sub tropical environment too! Happy Trails!

@cammd25 6 лет назад

Revisiting your list after seeing your hike all the way through, I think it's pretty hilarious that you basically never needed your rain gear. That seems like almost a miracle...

@moderntentcamping 6 лет назад

Enjoyed your videos - good suggestions organized into a short time.

@Seqhael 6 лет назад

My bag weighs double and to be honest, I forget my bag is on my back most days. Ultralight is great, but I hope people dont feel like they HAVE to have this ultralight stuff to hike the pct. 10-15% of your bodyweight is a good rule to follow and still be comfortable as anyone.

@TheMrVengeance 5 лет назад

Well to be fair, the weight he gives at the end of the video is w/o food and no filled bottles. Add those in and you're probably at 10-15% bodyweight.

@17sepp17 6 лет назад

This video you mention so much lovely information/ knowledge! 👍

@17sepp17 6 лет назад

I've seen some of your videos now. And I think you leave out important specs about your reviewing products. Like weight/ names and such, so I know what to search for if iwant to buy it 🤗 Love the channel. Just a Friendly advice.

@dannycurtis2591 6 лет назад

WOW! Nice vid'! Just started following you, but have watched many of your gear reviews and progress videos. Unfortunately, I've gotten too out of shape, too old(61)to get BACK in shape, and too unhealthy(diabetes, prone to foot injuries)to under take such an adventure. So, I will be living out this way too rusty bucket list trek vicariously through your posts. Good luck from North Alabama!!!✌*Gonna try out those shoes, tho'. May be just what these "numb" feet need!!👟👟

@EricVentures 6 лет назад

Great vid Darwin! I need to take the leap forward and commit to a thru hike! Soon enough I will.

@firstbloodbushcraft8354 6 лет назад

@Kupo_Kaachan 4 года назад

A dreamy backpack and gear list. I wish you would have included food tho! That takes up a lot of space

@christopher_martin 6 лет назад

i personally would not step into the woods without a good fixed blade knife... a ferro rod....steel waterbottle and/or pot

@zakkwallis5239 6 лет назад

christopher martin i always wonder, why carry a ferro rod when you can just have a bic lighter in a plastic bag...?

@christopher_martin 6 лет назад

bic lighter can still get wet....run out of fluid....break dont get me wrong i would also carry a bic lighter but if i could only have one or the other it would certainly be a ferro rod

@zakkwallis5239 6 лет назад

christopher martin why would you be in a situation where you could only have one or the other? The reason his pack is so light is because he doesn't pack things based on irrational fears. Bushwacking? Ferro away. But thru hiking an established trail? Leave the ferro rod and machete at home...

@christopher_martin 6 лет назад

dude i dont carry a machette and i dont walk trails. my post said when i step into the woods. and by the way do you know how many people get lost and disappear on trails...if you dont wanna carry 1 no problem its not too much extra weight for me for a lil added security but do your thing

@zakkwallis5239 6 лет назад

christopher martin i never said dont bring a map and compass. :b i dont know. Hike your own hike! Sorry i came off rude twas a rough day.

@BasaltGearcom 6 лет назад

@onetimeoutdoorsdj1394 6 лет назад

She's like that very nice. Thank you for sharing I hope you have an awesome time

@dkccdk 6 лет назад

gotta love these ultra light weenies... bet he has A FORTUNE in that bag... i hiked the appalachian trail with 55lbs to 60lbs counting water and food... i was always comfortable took several creature comforts... and i had more money in my pack than in everything else combined... everyone cries thats too much weight... but i have an aether 70... the suspension is incredible... im not a BIG guy... and i could jog with it after 2 weeks on trail... the human body will adjust to anything you put it through.... the original hikers of the appalachian trail used heavy canvas bags and cast iron pots for fcks sake... fckn trail priss... so for anyone reading who just cant afford $1500+ for gear to long distance hike... JUST KNOW YOU DONT HAVE TO... ive done 300 mile hikes with $200 worth of old used military gear...

@ric84 5 лет назад

Why are you this salty about a guy showing us his nice gear? I lugged around plenty of heavy shit for work and hobby and my knees haven't exactly gotten any better during the time. If i wasn't a broke ass student i'd have no problem spending $1000+ for some nice gear so i dont have to lug around a 5lbs sleeping bag if i don't want to freeze in the winter.

@timalimdim 5 лет назад

Hike with 60lb of gear if you want, but I have definitely started to go lighter. Not everything he's carrying is prohibitively expensive. I cut my pack and sleep kit weight in half recently after my old gear wore out (from a 15 years of use) and I didn't pay much more than I did for my old stuff. Tech has come a long way. My new Granite Gear pack weighs half of what my old one did. Same for cooking gear. My newish canister stove weighs very little and my DIY alcohol stove cost (practically) nothing and weighs an ounce. I still carry the same beat-to-hell pot I always carried and while my 3lb tent won't set any weight records, it's lighter than some and cost 80 bucks on sale. My base weight is maybe 20-25 lbs now. 30 or so fully loaded. (Don't know exactly, as I don't count ounces, but I seriously doubt it's more than that.) I don't wear heavy boots anymore because I'm not carrying a house. Way easier on my knees and ankles (I'm not old, but I'm not as young as I used to be) and a more pleasurable experience all around. Hike your own hike. It doesn't have to be one way or the other.

@420BLUNTLEY 5 лет назад

It’s really not that much more. Like the exos vs the arc blast is the same pack but one is lighter. And it’s only like $100more.

@benlzicar7628 6 лет назад

Yay... you got the ultrapod!!!

"it's been leaking, but I put some super-glue on it..." I bet that lasted 3 minutes..

@Hangs4Fun 4 года назад

He did end up having to replace it I'm the first half of the PCT. I also "hes gonna regret trying to push that repair on 2,652 miles". But he modestly acknowledged he should have replaced and learned from it, and I'm sure many people watching did too. So, it's all good. Failures can be our beat teachers.

@snipper1ie 6 лет назад

@mmathews7724 5 лет назад

Amazing video like all the rest. Darwin, I'm far from a pro like yourself but working my way up to do my first thru hike. I live near the Appalachian trail so do all my hiking off that terrain. I'm wondering your thoughts on rain pants. I typically will do 1 to 2 nights hike trips usually just overnighters and want to know if I should get some lightweight rain pants. I'm also getting into bike camping a lot more.

@bearcord_hikes_ga2529 6 лет назад

Someone (ZPacks, MLD, Gossamer) needs to make those 1 liter sized shoulder pouches.. I would love to get my hands on one like yours.

@nvalley 6 лет назад

They're available from the maker through facebook gear groups. I found him (Justin Anderson) in the Backpacking Gear Flea Market group. I have a 1L, a 700ml and a cell phone pouch and all of them seem very well made and reasonably priced

@bearcord_hikes_ga2529 6 лет назад

@nelsonsoaresusa 4 года назад

Let's talk about food. What kind of food do you bring? How much food do you start with? How much food do you usually consume in a day? How do you plan on replenish food? Yes, food is important.

@MrDiogostjst 6 лет назад

I just don't like the pack, is UL but so expensive and don't have any pro suspension system either. I prefer comfort to do long hikes. Great list, safe travels!

@poorpoora 5 лет назад

I watched your clip on Packard bell 3GH quadcore 4GB ram black desktop connected to Samsung something something monitor, using logitech mouse and k120 keyboard and heard your voice in PC world generic speakers. I sat on a chair from charity shop wearing black HI-tech sweatsuit, socks from ASDA. I took a short break in the middle of the clip to take a shit in my Sirene toilet and wiped myself with standard tesco toilet paper. Your sponsored opinions are worth less than what I left in that toilet.

@Jerry10939 5 лет назад

That is a light pack. I was in the army and we never went to the field with less than a 35lb rucksack Not including sleeping gear what we called a tankers roll. which had a shelter half tent poles and pegs and an extreme cold weather sleeping bag and air mattress, if issued an air mattress . all stuffed into a wet weather bag. and strapped to the ruck. Carrying a little extra weight doesn't bother me, and I don't carry what I don't need.

@xaninator 6 лет назад

My tent weighs as much as your whole base weight haha. It is also a 4p tent so I really only have to carry 1/2-1/3 of the weight since I don't go solo.

@shadowmatrix0101 6 лет назад

So...I've never hiked in my entire life, but I find it extremely fascinating to watch videos of all the things you need to do it. My main questions are how do you even begin your trip in the first place? If you're hiking from Mexico to Canada, do you drive your car down to Mexico and then take a plane once you get to Canada back to Mexico to pick up your car? How long does it take to hike all the way from Mexico to Canada? Do you just take off a month from your job to do this or how would you manage to do this? Thanks for any answers! Really curious.

@505fastlife6 Год назад

It takes 5 to 6 months to finish a trail like that.

@neilldrake4564 6 лет назад

Hey man great videos. Why not move to the Katadyn BeFree water filtration bottles? So much lighter and they have a 0.6, 1l and 3L pack with built in filter. They have saved my butt so many times in Patagonia for the last two years. Check them out, you'll dig them.
