Mt Adams 360 + Goat Rocks Ultralight Group Hike
I recently did week long backpacking trip in the PNW including a 360 loop around Mt Adams with my friend Scott Nechemias, followed by a group meet up around the Goat Rocks Wilderness with some other internet friends. The hike was a amazing, and I hope you enjoy my documentation of the trip!
Check out some of the people I hiked with:

This was an overnighter that turned into a one day trip. Still had a great time and got to hike and scramble around my old stomping grounds.

    RBtR had a bunch of test fabrics temporarily available last year. Any idea where to test some? Especially interested in 1.2oz Dyneema Grid for Hammock? As you know, dcf fails hammocks due to tensile mismatch between dyneema and face-mylar? Theory is that woven dyneema overcomes this mismatch problem by allowing stretch within the weave? But what other perils await?

    • @aurtisanminer2827

      I’m curious to see woven dyneema make it into the market. I hear it’s pretty abrasion resistant.

    At 3:57 is that what they refer to as “the gap?”

  • @fredhubbard7210
    @fredhubbard7210 4 года назад

    Maybe "not so scientific" but clear, understandable, and most important... to the point! No one seems to talk about wettability, here in the NW, it is really important. I'm curious what you think are the best fabrics in this regard. Dyneema seems really good, but surely there are less expensive alternatives.

    Transparent review,..that was cool. Please let me know when you have packs available. 33L is exactly what I was looking for!

  • @nathanrieck2112
    @nathanrieck2112 6 лет назад

    Impressed that you will self critique publicly. It’s good to know what the problem is and be open minded to finding a solution to a problem. Much respect for that. Never heard of your packs until the other day when I was browsing through eBay and yours came up. They said it was just too small for them. :) Keep it up and keep refining the pack and make it better. My dad has made some stuff (not hiking related) and always wants to know what people think about it, so that he can improve on the design. Sometimes people have a good idea to improve something....other times don’t listen to them because they are crazy... happy trails
