Your little sponge trick is some thing I've been using for decades with a slight difference. I take a new sponge, drizzle a few lines of dawn dish detergent across the sponge, let it dry out completely before cutting it into little tiny rectangles . That way when you go to use the sponge to wash out your camp stuff, you don't need to carry dish detergent separately . Then I take an empty eyedropper bottle, and I fill it with chlorine. Four drops to a gallon if you have to sterilize water, and one drop to a litre for washing dishes with your soap infused sponge
I came back to revist this video since buying an E-MTB for bikepacking. You convinced me to snag a Tenkara rod. I picked up the Yari at a decent price + a good discount code. I can't wait to fish it. I am with you on the camp chair. At 76 years old I have a difficult time sitting on the ground and a more difficult time getting up. Since watching your video some ten months ago I also picked up the Thermacell and love it. You always give great advice. Thanks for your efforts.
😂sleep supplement to add to water. This old gal would be up 4x to potty, wake up & have to take that caffeine supplement. By day 3, loss of sleep, caffeinated me would be more dangerous than the bears! I boil water, put in my water bottle, cover w sock & put in bottom sleep bag. I do carry the warmers, though. Lightweight & can take the edge off. Agree w extra meal. NOT extra Snickers. They’re usually gone 1st day.
One other note for those who might be interested in our fanny pack - the topographic map on the front is customizable. You can put a location of any region you want on it and choose the colors. Thanks for the shoutout!
Man, I really like your channel, it’s a good mix of different outdoor camping/hunting/ backpacking. It’s closer to my actual lifestyle than other creators channels.
Great list! Lots of good lil tips there. It really all depends on the purpose of the trip and who you go with. For a solo trip I wouldn’t pack a deck of cards. In fact, for entertainment in general I limit the options to whatever I can bring on my phone: audiobooks, videos, and podcast are favorites. I don’t journal but if I did, I’d probably just record voice notes on my phone, saving lots of ounces. Tenkara certainly looks nice. I got a rod for my BD many years ago. Never used it once, but that’s because fishing bores me to death. For those who like it, it’s a great idea though.
Exactly! That is one thing I do not take with me solo. Kindle, Walkman. Phone to write diary. All sorted. Totally agree with chair. My kayak trolly converts into one.
Tip I learned a couple years ago. Wash your tyvek ground sheet a few times in the washing machine. It makes it softer and way quieter. Didn’t do any damage to mine when I did it and I’m still using the same one going on three years
I hadn't heard that but was starting to wonder if some of the tyvek backpacking gear you purchase was made of different stuff than the house wrap. Cuz the house wrap stuff I use is super crinkly. Thanks for the tip, I'm gonna try that!
@@theoutdoorempire it definitely works. Wash on cold and line dry, do not put it in your dryer. I ran my Tyvek ground sheets through the wash 3-4 times each and they got quieter with each wash. I only use Tyvek on my Litefighter tents since they're not ultralight anyway. For ultralight I use polycryo window film. You can save a few ounces just by going with that material instead of Tyvek and polycryo is quiet as well as cheap ($2.75 per 1 man tent versus $14 for Tyvek) a 7x3' Tyvek sheet weighing in at 4.2oz while the polycryo weighs just over 1.5oz for the same size. The polycryo packs down smaller too
I have started using my clothing bag as a pillow, I use a canvas drawstring bag I made for a middle school project as my clothing bag and as long as I pack my clothes properly in it it is extremely comfortable
That feeling of getting a fish while backpacking is the best! Just found your channel and I definitely picked a couple of things out of your list that I didn't even know existed. Thx for the vid my dood, look forward to all your future vids.
Just got a deck of waterproof cards from Tny and at 1.44oz they're easy to justify for a backpack. So many games for such little weight. I will have to check out that fishing setup, that looks nice. Check out the Flextail thermacell option. Looks tiny, light, and even features a lantern.
Great ideas, first off. I would add my "pocket bellows." Maybe a Firestarter tab of sorts, too. I use a small bit of stainless steel scrubby, and a tiny tiny bottle of dawn. Like a 1/4oz. Ya only need a single drop. Tiny eyedropper full. And it's Dawn, it's OK. They clean oil slicked ducks and otters with it. Rinsing your pot out in a stream is ok.
3 items that you do need when out in the bush being self sufficient. 1. A Mill Bank water pre filter bag. A Mill Bank bag filters out all the larger debris from ground water collected from streams and pools of water. It doesn't sterilize water but removes all larger debris and grains of dirt that will quickly clog the fine filter membranes in one's primary water filter. A Mill Bank bag weighs nothing, and packs about the same size and shape as a large Cuban cigar. Formerly British army WWII issue, now made in the USA. 2. Plastic funnels. No one considers taking along a small, say a 100mm diameter ultra light, ultra cheap plastic funnel when collecting water from rock face drips or trying to pour water into the small opening of a water bottle where every drop counts without spilling any. 3. Carry half a dozen 75 to 100 mm long safety pins for securing wet garments , wet tent rag, or towels, soxs, under wear, etc under the straps of one's back pack to dry in the sun. Securing with these low weight, low cost safety pins will ensure these drying items will not far fall off and be lost
I prefer my CNOC 3L water container over a funnel. It allows me to contain 3L of water for the weight of 2 L via plastic bottles, can collect water from the weakest of streams, and can collect water fast by scooping up an entire fill in under a second. Plus I can use it as a gravity filtration system too. Works well with the Waterdrop filter straws I carry since those are internally threaded for 28mm water bottles on both ends. No clunky adapter to forget or lose.
a small plastic funnel has multiple uses not just for water - stove fuel - fluid food items - etc. With more than 60 years back packing and world travel experience under my belt anything I now carry in my swag has multiple uses, the same goes for a Mill Bank bag and safety pins. @@1FAST91SONOMA
for this I love to take the Ultra-Sil Dry Day Pack from sea to summit... it's a backpack, dry bag and you can easily use it as a compression bag too with it's roll top. But it's a little more pricy
First time here and I'm impressed. Excellent video and you have a new subscriber. However you've made a critical and very common mistake.... The Tyvek ground sheet is an excellent tip, but you've placed it wrong. The lettering must face the ground and not the opposite like in your video. Tyvek, like all house wrapping, is "breathable". This means there's a breathable side and a waterproof side. The waterproof side is the printed side. So if you put the printed side up, all the moisture from the ground will go through, and same with the rain that will soak your tent floor. That's why the printed side must always face the ground.
Fantastic insight, thanks for sharing! I didn't even think about that when shooting the video, but when I hike I usually do put the word side down, so I guess I've been doing it right by accident. Except in the video, of course. 😂 Thanks for the sub!
Glad you enjoyed it! In my experience the Thermacell isn't 100% mosquito free, but it helps a ton and combined with a little bug spray, it's been about as good as I've found.
I LOVE my tenkara rod! My entire fishing kit weighs less than 6 ounces total. And it's so fast to set up, unlike my other fly rods or regular rods. If I'm going on an overnight, I take my chair, too. Sometimes I take the three legged stool, which is even lighter. Sitting not on the ground is nice. I need to look into the foam Birkenstocks - didn't even know they made them.
You basically have to use a Tyvek groundsheet where I go because the place is carpeted with holly leaves that will destroy your floor even with a purpose built groundsheet. I definitely take some camp shoes as nothing, and I mean NOTHING, feels better than getting those boots off at camp. And a chair. I never go without a chair and that's the second thing to come out of the pack at the campsite. It's funny because my 13 year old loves to backpack, but.... Well, she's 13 and indestructible and doesn't get it yet. When we stop to pitch I get immediately out of my boots and into my chair and I don't even want to talk for a good 20 minutes while I just sit there and enjoy the relief.
@@theoutdoorempire There are a lot of reasons to get a Titanium pot maybe this is what tips the scale for you ... Toaks and Maxxi make nice affordable ones, but nothing beats Snow Peak for quality.
I'm with you on the camp shoes. I tried flip-flops but they suck. So I go with crocs. Yes they're bulky. Light, waterproof. But bulky. After a long day in boots, crocs are saviors. I'm a tender foot so walking around with nothing on doesn't work well for me. I appreciate your video.
Agree with most EXCEPT: Hand warmers last a few hours. (Instead, some gloves appropriate for the weather will last months or years and you won't mind packing them out).
Extend the life of hand warmers easily. It takes oxygen for them to work. So, stick them in a good ziploc and suck out all the air. Voila.....they will be good to use later if you have only needed for a short time.
Footprints keep the tent bottom from getting muddy/soiled from damp ground as water percolates upward over time. Much easier to clean than a tent bottom!
I always considered the Tenkara Fishing Rod as an necessary item. When I'm not using my self inflating Therm-a-rest full length mummy mattress. Then it's the Camp-Tek Microburst to inflate the Neo Air.
Happy surprised that most of the small and free items I had also discovered but had not yet seen in a video, so well done. Lightweight video option tip, people being fooled by the Titanium cup hype where so much more lighter weight options are available. And some also free, like a paper coffee cup from the gas station.
Ibuprofen is a must or I can’t sleep. Love taking my kindle and I have to have clean clothes to sleep in. A pocket shower and those little tablets that expand into a wipe are also really nice.
I was not aware of the Themacell in that form factor. That would be very nice for car camping, RV or whatever. Though I do not own one I have always been interested in the Tenkara Rod. I am an avid fly fisherman and always wanted to give it a go. Looks like fun. Great list.
@@theoutdoorempire Bound to be a sweet fight too. I love fishing the more intimate mountain streams that see little to no pressure. The lightweight and compactness is awesome.
All that stuff along with the rest of my gear for a trip I took that weekend my pack weighed 29 pounds before water and my camera gear (which was obviously also optional but doin it for the Tube).
Just took it all to the Winds last week, that's what all that stuff was packed for in the video. Total pack weight before water and camera gear was 29 pounds. Not super light, but not super heavy either. Cheers.
Camp shoes made by Birkenstock? Ummmm, I use the cheapest pair of slides on the shelf at Walmart. I love the idea of fanny packs but I always either end up taking to much, and thinking I need a full size pack, or I take too little and put the stuff in my pocket, so the fanny pack stays put.
Ya I hear you. My Birkenstocks were a gift actually. I wear them almost every day in the summer so throwing them in my pack is no big deal. Was happenstance that I discovered they make a nice camp shoe.
The term "bank" = storage for later use. So "power bank" would be the more accurate term. "battery bank" = is kinda redundant or tad inaccurate.
