I've been thinking of a poncho style quilt as well instead of my puff jacket. Was thinking of multipurpose as well once set up at camp

[@BackpackingGearNut]

Well, I’m really enjoying mine. There’s a lot of expensive ones out there but I feel like the one that I have is reasonably priced. I also really like the texture of the material. It’s incredibly soft to the touch.

Great video! I needed the food storage info, quilt info and water bottle hack! Oh and the cnoc bag, 💯 worth it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for your time making this most informative video. I was especially interested the tent. How did it perform?

[@BackpackingGearNut]

I absolutely love this tent. The only reason you see me using other trekking pole tents is that I test lots of tents. I've had it in all kinds of weather, and it has always held up. I took it on that trip because I knew I'd be in the snow and didn't have to worry about keeping its structure.
