Thanks for tuning in! The rod is a 10 ft Tenkara rod called The Beartooth by Tenkara Rod Co. The other fly rod was an 8 ft I believe but I'm not sure of the weight. The Superior Hammock was amazing and more than met the temps we saw on that trip which dipped below freezing. The hammock straps were just 15 feet each. The fish that we actually cooked and ate were 12-14 inches long and the pan was a 12 inch skillet.

​@@juicehikes5436 Thanks for the reply! Just the info needed / confirmed, since the gear box has several fly rods and straps. I was thinking a 2-3 weight would be fun stream fishing and 4 weight for small lakes. Took a look at the Superior Hammock. I have bridge and regular hammocks. The underquilts don't always keep the drafts out :( Been rockin your videos for long time! Great stuff.

We were spoiled on this trip with good fishing!

Thanks for watching Mark! I guess RUclips has decided not to push my videos out much anymore! You’re right, that was a Brown Trout. We had been catching almost exclusively Brook Trout for the previous two days on Part 1 so I misspoke.

@@juicehikes5436 No worries Juice, just thought you may want to know. I have noticed that there are a lot of people I watch that have not had many videos pop up lately! I am glad I am subscribed to your channel so I won't miss the next one. Take Care.

Hey Juice what an amazing adventure thanks for sharing. I will be out there next summer hope to see you out on the trail.

Thanks for watching!

@@jellytin people are pretty fun sometimes! Glad to hear you are loving The Ranger. I’ve definitely enjoyed my time with it! Comfort ratings on quilts/sleeping bags are super subjective and it depends a lot on if you are a cold or warm sleeper. Personally I would go with a 20 degree comfort rated quilt as the temps on the mountains can drop without warning. If you tend to sleep on the warmer side you could definitely do the PCT with that quilt. Thanks for tuning in!

@@juicehikes5436 Thanks! Yeah I've really enjoyed my time with it too. Super comfortable. Can't wait for the Space Ranger for my winter forays. Thanks for answering. I'll probably go with 20 just to be safe then.

@@CoasttoCoastOutdoorAdventures thanks for tuning in! This is a Superior Hammock by Superior Gear.

@@juicehikes5436 Awesome! I’ll have to go check them out.

Thanks Rod!

AND you’re rocking Superior Gear Hammocks and Packit Gourmet!!! My IDEAL trip,@@juicehikes5436 !!!!🤘

Thanks for tuning in! That's a great section!

Hey Juice I hope you’re doing well. If you don’t mind I have a question for you. I am planning a backpacking trip next July or August ( depending on when I get the permit) I would like to start out of Roads End (Cedar Grove) take the Woods Creek Trail towards the suspension bridge at Woods Creek. And the go north on the J M T towards Happy Isles. If I go that way I am thinking 7 - 8 days until I get to V V R for my first resupply. I think it would be a little rough going that far with that much weight the first leg of the trip. So i rethinking and TRY !!!!! And get a permit out of Happy Isles and go on the J M T to the Woods Creek Trail & come out at Roads End. If I go that way I can get resupplies at Tuolumne Meadows then Red’s Meadows, then V V R. By then I should have my trail legs and adjusted to the elements then hit the Woods Creek Trail out. Am trying to figure if I go Woods Creek first it might be rough going. Ha ha any input is highly appreciated. Thanks Larry

It was!

Cheers from MN!

Haha, it’s a bit of a shock when kids realize it’s not all fun while you are out there! Cascade River is a great section as well. Evolved and SG Hammocks helped make it a great trip. Thanks for tuning in!

@@barbaraschaller578 he did pretty great!!

@@debbiepickett8113 Elias did awesome!

Sure did! No holes and held up great.

Maybe try a water bottle pocket on the shoulder straps?

@@juicehikes5436 My new pack came with one so I’m hoping it will work.

Awesome!

That's what I do! Just stuff it all in a Nylofume bag.

@@juicehikes5436 nylofume?never herda thatun.gunna look it up.thanks.

Good luck! You don't need as much as you think you do.

My quite uses 950 down with the draft collar. Yes, it's rated to 20 degrees Fahrenheit. We are working on the 50L pack but it won't be available until later this year. Unfortunately when it comes to customs fees we have zero say or control over what is charged and it varies from country to country. Cheers!

nice im looking forward to it. do you have experience with wolfs and foxes during your thruhikes, especially during the night? online i find people advising to eat and hang the food on a tree at least 100ft from the tent, also wanted to ask you how you deal with ticks wearing all the time running shorts except using a spray repellent. thanks. greetings from italy

@@OQULTO I have some experience with both wolves and foxes but no real issues. You just encounter them sometimes on trail or at night but they usually keep their distance. I treat all my clothes in Permethrin for tick prevention and when necessary I use Picardin lotion which keeps ticks, flies, and mosquitoes at bay. The lotion lasts around 12 hours too which is great!

@@juicehikes5436 thanks 🤙

Worn weight, haha!

Sorry, I don't own the CONCURVE!

You should check out some of my newer ones!

Nashville makes great packs!

Hey Daniel! Getting out as much as I can. I released a gear video a few months back ruclips.net/video/RmNnuE4tIug/видео.htmlsi=BMrQGIP1VYn7TSi9. Headed out to Yosemite soon a few weeks!

Hey It's Tim! I bet the trail was way more crowded than when Darwin and I went in February. Thanks again for the ride sir!

Do you know Darwin personally?

@@juicehikes5436 What you think of as a response is reduced to “Unless you know someone personally, you ought not criticize them.” You’re committed to the position that you can’t criticize that other idiot, Donald Trump, since you don’t know him. Think before you type Juice.

@@juicehikes5436 What’s the logical necessity of knowing someone personally in order to render a criticism? I’m failing to see a rebuttal.

I make it a point not to criticize others just as a point of being a decent human being. Everyone's got their own stuff going on. Better to be kind and treat others as you would like to be treated. It's sad to see what people are willing to say behind the safety of their keyboard.

@@juicehikes5436And why should someone share your values?

Thanks @CaptainCamp! Appreciate you tuning in!

Both were equally awesome!

Thanks! We did Gokyo and EBC in September of 2023. Enjoy your trip!

No, I'm not a daily vlogger. I'm also not thru-hiking the PCT this year. The gear list was just for a section of the PCT but could easily be used as a thru-hiking kit. I just released the trip video today ruclips.net/video/7J7BxPKlltM/видео.html.

The Ranger is a 45L pack with plenty of room if your gear is dialed in. I had 5 days of food and full comfort items with room to spare. Lots of people carry smaller packs than this on thru hikes. It fits a BV450 on the inside and you can attach a larger bear can on the top. There are only a few places in the US that it’s necessary to carry a bear can so that’s not much of a concern. Pretty rational choice for a pack as far as I’m concerned.

@@juicehikes5436 it probably depends on your daily consumption and height, I am 6'2'' and my food takes up a lot more room. I have a Copper Spur 2 person tent, Western mountaineering sleeping bag and I can hardly fit everything into a 60L pack.

@@NVIK5 possibly but I’m 6’1 and consume 3000-4000 calories a day. Your tent and sleeping bag take up a lot more room than the Altaplex tent and Enlightened Equipment quilt I carried on this trip though. Also how you pack your largest volume items can have a lot of impact. Tons of people have completed thru hikes on all the major trails using this pack.

It’s not mandatory to hire a guide. It’s suggested and they want it to appear like you have to have one but in reality you can hike without a guide.

@@juicehikes5436 thanks for the response.

Haha, Darwin designed the Waymark EVLV for Mark and then Mark never paid him a dime for it. You may want to know the facts before you use words like “copied.”

@@juicehikes5436 Sadly Mark wasn't making decent money from his company, Waymark (according to the internet), so he shut it down. Though that does take away any conflict over the design of the pack, I would think.

🤣

Thanks for tuning in!

I haven't used a bear can with the Ranger yet. It will fit a BV450 or you can use the Y-strap to attach a bear can to the top of the pack.

I used Garmins for over a decade (both the Fenix and Forerunner) and just recently switched to the Apple Watch Ultra. They both have their drawbacks, battery life being one of them for the Apple Watch. As an everyday smart watch though the Apple Watch is just better. If I was hiking for 3-4 months straight and the main purpose was only to track activities I would probably opt for the Garmin with significantly better battery.

About 40L

Haven’t tried them. Maybe I’ll check them out! Thanks

So it can just be buried somewhere else?

Hey Mike, we did change the sizing in late 2023 so the first version size medium is now the size small. I wear the size small of the new version and it works really well for me.
