It’s really refreshing to see a pro take that isn’t all Gucci gear.
Definitely,notice also alot of guci gear is never worn from use . Makes one wonder
The complexity and severity of need determine the required/recommended gucci level. Cheap saw because if it breaks he has a hatchet anyhow. For some people his G22 in a safariland with an X300 is probably considered gucci but if it cannot be allowed to fail, spend a little more.
@@K-bob_45 Glock Gucci? Maybe if it was a Salient….
@@01AceAlpha Not so much the glock but the light and the holster together cost more than the glock or the close to the same.
@@01AceAlpha lol I’d never say a Glock is gucci no matter the amount of lipstick but compared to a Ruger security 9 it’s gucci.
I’d be interested in hearing more about how you live off the land on your camping trips.
Hell - even a vlog on one of those trips would be amazing!
He mostly catches fish...unsure if he hunts much for small game during that time of year in the Bob. I know there are grouse and huge rabbit in there. A 40 cal would be overkill for a grouse.
@@operationNOBO Yeah, he did mention using the G22 for bear defense and hunting.
Fish, mushrooms, and berries will serve you well. All catchable/foragable pretty easily, terrain depending. The PNW is better for the latter two, but you can still get em in the Northern Rockies.
One of his interviews he talked a bit about it, probably the Rogan one but pretty much any interview with him is interesting. But a video on some of it would be awsome but I’m sure he dose it to detach a bit to.
Re-title this "Delta Operator's 72 hour loadout," and all the internet "experts" will add millions of views 😎
If you wander over to the men's department they'll sell a 10mm. I kid, I kid...sort of.
Well now we have to see the Trout catch 'n cook with tinfoil!
He may already have it in his blaze ops site. Pay the full membership. He puts on cooking recipes haha.
Eagle Scout here. Just want to say I love seeing camping gear videos and its awesome to see that someone as cool and rugged as you is rocking stuff like a Eureka tent and a jetboil cooking system. There's absolutely nothing wrong with getting some "cheaper" gear for camping especially if you know how to take care of it and make it last. Rock and roll dude, loving these videos
100% Trained by my Delta old man on these things, great to see these out in the open so these betas can be a bit more self sufficient.
Stop worrying about what celebrities do and just treat him as another man. It’s not like he’s magically ‘above’ regular camping gear and gets DEVGRU certified military hardware absolutely everywhere he goes. Sheesh.
@@Elohim100 i guess i worded it a dumb way. I was just surprised to see him repping a brand that most outdoor enthusiasts i talked to would consider "shit" or "beginner gear" (im talking about Eureka!). I am treating him like a regular dude as someone who is much more experienced and traveled than I am; I just got excited he (as a more experienced individual) confirmed that the shit I already use is good to go for more than just some lame backyard camping. Never at any time do i see him as a "celebrity". This is real shit, not some fucking Instagram marketing bullshit
@@PeteNice29 what kinda nonsense are you yapping about? ‘out in the open?’
Gals and Guys - if you are going to buy an inflatable sleeping pad, absolutely make sure you buy one that has thermal insulation, usually described by R-value. I had done a stupid mistake by buying something super comfy and not isolating at all, (the mat was photoshopped on the glacier, and yes, you know who is a fool here). To make things better, after my first trip I decided that the sleeping bag is guilty, so I took another trip with a new sleeping bag and good, old noninsulating mat - again super comfy, and super cold. And finally, something clicked in my brain, probably thanks to hypothermia after a night on frozen ground - so for the third trip, this time in the winter I took an alu-roll mat, and finally slept like a newborn.
Good info there. When we go climbing and camping above a snow line ( so camping on the snowpack ) everyone brings a roll mat and a thermarest, as well as an appropriate sleeping bag. It's taught quite early on in basics that the ground will suck out any heat you have, even in mild weather ( don't leave anything at all on the ground if it has a battery either. It'd be stone dead in the morning !) . Glad you're getting a decent nights sleep now!
Camping with Pat Mac would be a blast. Maybe a patreon offer…maybe a bit much. Thanks for the content!
Pat, maybe do a video on that trout recipe showing how to use the foil when you out next time.
All that fits in your pack? I'd like to know how you pack that pack. I miss the Rockies.
Colorado 6500ft. 70 today three days ago snowing and 28 degrees
Aquaphor Ointment, is an amazing product for cuts, burns, itches and CHAFING.
The more you know, the less you have to carry. 👍 One thing I learned recently about living off the land in the Rockies is that it isn't easy compared to the Eastern woodlands. I couldn't believe how easy it is to live off the land back there if you know your plants.
Hill People Gear make something called a kit bag, it’s like a bag that goes on your chest. The idea is that you can get access to a concealed firearm when you’re wearing a rucksack with a waist belt that would normally interfere with your holster. I know concealment might not matter much in your environment but just an option if you’re somewhere where you might encounter other people and you don’t want to alarm them. They’re also great for carrying stuff that you want quick access to, like map & compass, tourniquet, knife, etc. without having to fill your pockets full of stuff. Loving the vids Pat!
I have one and carry my Glock 20 in it. Fastened a Kydex holster inside to carry with a round chambered. When in back country I open the zipper at the top. If I fumble with the zipper pull I can reach inside and rip it out in extremis. Never had to do it but it’s there. Pricey but I think worth it.
@@wendelllewis4540 I can't carry where I am (aside from a few of the locals, there's no dangerous wildlife so not crucial for traveling anyway), but I see that HPG sell a Kydex "shoe" that fits most Glock models. I think the idea is that you dummy cord it to the loop in the handgun compartment and it pulls free when you draw. I've also seen most people (including myself) "stage" the zips of the handgun compartment at one corner, with a slight gap in between. That way you can just grab that corner of the bag and rip it open, the zips come away pretty easily. As I say, not speaking from experience in terms of carrying a handgun in the kit bag, but I carry one of my tourniquets in the handgun compartment so I can get quick access. Whenever I've practiced the "draw" it's very easy to open the compartment that way whilst still ensuring nothing falls out, etc. There are videos of it on RUclips which I can link you to if you need. You may already know all this but just thought I'd say so you can check it out!
Love mine
Spot on with the helinox chair my girlfriend said she would never go backpacking again without it
I’m in Washington former 68w ,love your car your video’s are great ,I’m a brain never turns off guy so when I can’t sleep I can still learn thank you so much for your service being prior service I’d never imagine I could understand the level you have trained to I’m proud to be amongst the many men and women that are proud to have you on the home team

~ Psalm 37:4-6
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."
~ Matthew 5:14-16
"If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved."

For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
~ Romans 10:13
"In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory."

~ Titus 3:5
"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.”
~ Galatians 2:20-21
"Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you-unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures."
~ 1 Corinthians 15:1-4
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

~ Isaiah 55:6-7
What you need and nothing you don’t. The pack doesn’t look big; next vid you need to stuff all that gear in the pack. Some of that get lashed on the outside of the pack?
This dude is so intense, can’t imagine a few key bumps with this guy around the camp fire
Very cool. We do a 36 mile canoe trip here in the north Maine woods each year and pack with striking similarity. I was privileged in to have helped my father build a house for one of the big Agnes/helinox designers. Bob gave me all kinds of cool gear.
But where do you carry the LAW Pat?
Really appreciate you sharing knowledge great instructions from our countries best !!!!
Silky makes some outstanding bushcraft and camping foldable saws,great investment if a person wants to buy once cry once.Trout in tin foil is awsome grew up doing it that way since dad taught me.
Been packing a Silky for a few years now, great saws!
Agreed. Silky makes the best folding saws 👍🏼
Just bought a silky, can’t wait to get out and use it this summer!
Awesome video as always. I keep getting distracted by the GTO though.
What is your go to footwear for backpacking in the mtns?
Excellent video. I like a 10mm in Barrrrrrr country. Thank you for your service.
Dude I’ve had that same Coleman saw for 10 years. I keep wanting to replace it because it’s cheap but it just keeps working. I use it to cut limbs when I’m deer hunting
Tree limbs or deer limbs?
@@swegmastur614 haha! Tree limbs. Never used it on bone
The Glock 40 in 10mm is my backwoods rig
Great tips and awesome GTO in the background
If you think Mr. Pat’s choice of 40 S&W is weak for bear defense, look at the facts. I carry 10mm Underwood 200 gr. hard cast in Grizzly country. It penetrates 58” in bare gel. Same bullet in 40 S&W penetrates 52” in same gel. Not bear flesh but gives evidence of adequate penetration to get to CNS for both calibers. I can shoot 40 with better control than 10mm. I would be OK switching to 40 and might do just that.
Buffalo Bore munitions offers serious back hills loads for those calibers.
@@Snookynibbles Good choice too. I have those. Coated Underwood has no lube and smokes less. The heavy 45 auto is an option too. Penetrates 53.5” for comparison. My bear spray is always primary….but can fail.
Penetration is part of the story for sure. I carry .45 because it’s what I have. If I had to make a 57 or 9 work, I guess that’s what I’d do. I had a .40 for about 6 months in the 90’s, and I won’t be purchasing anything in that caliber ever again. I’d defend myself with a pocket knife if it’s all I had, but if I was able to select my setup for bear country a shotgun and/or a 10mm would be my first choice. As I said though, in a run-what-you-brung scenario, plenty of stuff will do.
nobody asked
I feel like I just have to absorb this guy’s stuff. I’ve been binging everything of his I can find. Great stuff
Ditto that.
Check him out on The Joe Rogan Experience and The Jocko Podcast. Both podcasts are great.
@@BigBear81 --yep, I saw Pat on the Jocko podcast, and was like....who is this dude?
I live a half hour from the east side of Bob Marshall 🤘🏼It’s spring bear season right now. Been out there puttin in the miles as much as possible
I would normally say .40 is too small for the Bob but I think Pat Mac can outshoot most people I know and can do just fine with that round. Personally, I have always packed a .41 on all of my trips into the Bob. I have personally never had a problem with a griz back there but know people who have.
I would like to see a collab of Pat and Garand Thumb on survival gear/tactics.
I had no idea that a telescopic fly rod was even a thing!
I'm going to check that out!
One thing I like to do is wear two pairs of shoe laces on my boots, so I basically have four laces. I have one regular pair and the other pair is just a 5-50cord.
Also, I carry salt tablets. Almost everyone I knew on my search and rescue team carried them because we worked in the desert and it’s just nice to have your electro lights high.
I have my radio too, you can call your local forest service team and have them give you a channel so you can always contact them if anything goes wrong.
The first and most important piece of survival kit is :Tell someone where your going, when you'll arrive and be back.
No joke about the weather change in the Rockies. We had our drilling rig parked in the foothills of the Rockies outside of Sundre Alberta (west of Calgary) Canada. In the summer, I watched the temperature drop 30 degrees in an hour. Birds were falling out of the sky and having trouble flying with the freak snow storm that followed. This was in July too. Mountain weather is no joke.
Nice video! Simple down and dirty list. Pretty similar stuff but gear is always rotating depending on the journey. I usually will camp in truck as a basecamp and then venture out from there mileage may vary since I moved to Colorado. Usually always take Body Glide, Baby Wipes, some zip lock bags, small fire starting kit, emergency blanket, beanie, gloves, whistle, day night signaling device, are a few of my essentials not mentioned.
I'm debating to go leg holster for my pistol or a chest rig... Either a kydex one or something like the Hill People Gear chest pouch. I've never been a huge fan of the drop leg holster as I feel it gets in the way of the terrain in CO sometimes, but the ones that drop down from the belt say 2.5'' I don't mind. I know you sacrifice speed with the chest pouch and trigger protection but I carry a 1911 out there so pros and cons I guess.
You should definitely do a short doc on the bob Marshall next time you go.
yep, that would be awesome.
Great gear setup. Osprey backpacks are great. I have that same one in green. Gravity water filters are also amazing. Platypus makes another good one. I am not a fan of those inflatable pillows (to each their own) so I have a compressible thermarest pillow.
You mentioned bringing a Goretex shell. I bring one too but learned the hard way to keep it away from the fire. Cinders will burn holes into it. For a cheap fire starter I bring an egg carton filled with dryer lint mixed with a bit of candle wax. If you can’t start a fire with that, you can’t start a fire. It works great.
If you ever get tired of “The Bob” try the Boundary Waters in Northern MN. Lots of land nav with canoe paddling. It will smoke you too. Keep up the great work!
I read "The men, The mission and me" about two years ago... Very interesting, historical critical in my opinion. tx for the transfer of knowledge SGM
Excellent brother! Osprey and Kelty make solid mid size packs for a great price, also highly recommend Tasmanian Tiger packs. I dig that you carry a G22 .40, my go-to for the sticks and every other occasion (G22 or G23). I carry most of the same stuff, only difference is I take a standard ground sheet with a small sleeping pad and a bivy cover apart from a secondary fire starting/ making source/ tool. Metal up!
I’ve always pronounced the name of that water filter company that makes your base camp bag Ka-Ta-Dyn/thought it a reference to the mountain in Maine at the end of the AT. If you get a chance to head North and hike it, the Knife’s Edge is a cool thing to experience! Thanks for sharing. Always great seeing other folks gear choices and analyzing ones own choices. 🤘🏼
Im impressed, my load out is identical and i've spent years getting it right. I'd go naked before I'd go without my sleeping pad. I use an Eberlestock external frame pack that doubles as a chair. Proper seating is a must!
No TP for bunghole?
Subscribed! Backpacking in the Rockies is Great for the Soul.
Thumbs up on the Gold Bond, but you missed the Dr. Bronner’s soap. It’ll cut through the nastiest funk. Always in the ruck.
Pat next time you come to Montana, I would love to meet up with you. I live in Kalispell, MT. I had the privilege to learn from Dutch in 2018, and watch your video's all the time. Stay safe and Rock on !!!
What flys do you bring? What wt set up? Trout recipe? Sounds like a super fun trip in the Bob! 5 days with the same pack…I think…as my daypack. That’s hardcore man! In the Bob with a daypack, pistol, ax, and a fly rod.
Seeking clarification.
When he says “That 40”, referring to the one that is “big enough to stop a bear but small enough to hunt with” is he talking about the Glock 22 ( 40 kal) or the Glock 40 (10mm).
Most excellent ! Different gear for me. Camping hunting alpine climbing do require different gear. My last set of gortex winter gear was 300 total. Lasted 15 yrs. Had to replace it last winter. 1300 ! I fekkin died. Why ? It's now popular for the rich do nothings to parade up and down main St in ski towns wearing it. Anyways. Minimalist teaches the right lessons. This man knows his shit, guaranteed .
Don't underestimate using a pillow. Makes worlds of difference
Pat you gotta come up to Canada if you want complete... wilderness... and bugs.
Pat. I know this is an older video, but very cool. Love that fishing rod. The telescope fly rod. I think I will stick to a telescoping spinning real and rod. I love to eat me some trout. I used to do so in the mountains of Colorado when in the back country.
Pat, please tell me what guitars and amps and effects you use? I'm 62 ( still catnip to the ladies 😂) and I have been playing since 1977 or so. Learned by ear. Please do a video on your music gear kind sir.
Tim
check out GTD ministry in Seminole, FL...they do the best outfitter type stuff and they are a non-profit. Doug is good people and he saved my life...👍
Was betting he carried a g20 for the 10mm power and capacity (also can shoot .40 in it).
Nice GTO Pat. Haven't seen one of those for many years. 383 I bet. Thanks for all the pointers dude.
The more I watch your content, the more I learn what being a real man is all about. Thank you for sharing and thank you for sharing non-firearm content like this as well. Wish the world had many more men like you in it.
Kifaru backpacks. You're welcome.
Chair,inflatable pillow,inflatable ground pad..getting soft there old man 😁
I am stoked for spring 2022. I'm a go up north fork teton and enjoy the privation you talk of. I dig you and your philosophy of packing some comfort like yer chair.
Good times my amigo. God Bless you. Montana is always here for you.
Pat doesn't have to go to the woods, the woods come to Pat.
I knew you had to be cool when you said your fav camping is in Montana, I grew up doing all kinds of camping trips, including the Bob Marshall!
I am wondering when you will start using your Pontiac as a shelf 😂
Helinox makes awesome products. I highly recomend their cots.i spend a minimum of 100nights/per year on mine as a wilderness fishing guide in the boundary waters canoe area. Its only a couple pounds so i can justify a good regenerative sleep every night vs throwing a pad on the ground, and tossing and turning all night. I have 4 years on my cot now with zero issues. The material is starting to fray on the head and foot end a bit now but around 400nights of use in summer and -35 minnesota winters, i feel ive got my moneys worth out of it.
I’d like to see how you cook trout while on a hiking/camping trip.
Just got back from a weekend backpacking trip here in northern CO. I learned I need to get a better sleeping bag. Mines warm but too bulky. It can be 80 during the day here and at night it can easily dip into the lower 40s or 30s at night up in the high country. Like in the Bob, storms will roll in within minutes here too.
Have you ever tried a hammock? I swear by them. Set up properly, they are great sleep and off the ground. I have a 4 season hammock. Slept comfy in 10 degrees
What brand pillow is that? As someone said below, a good pillow makes a world of difference. Awesome video - thanks!
Growing up in Western MT, and now living in the Sandhills, I miss The Bob
I wouldn't wear that T-shirt in the Bob Marshal because there you ain't no badass, your on the food chain.
All silliness aside enjoy it out there and keep safe. Thanks for the vid.
Who makes the cool ultralight packable jacket out of a parachute type of fabric? Thanks.
Good looking out sir thank you. I'm going to definitely redo my camping gear and take your camping gears ideas instead.
Thank you SMG. Excellent video
Thanks for sharing man, getting out like that is one of my favorite things in the world. What kind of socks do you wear/take? And if you haven't seen them before, check out the Platypus Gravity filter bags. 4L water bag you hang in a tree with an inline gravity filter to another 4L bag. Same size as yours, just makes getting a bag full of Clean water that much easier.
What's the strangest thing you've ever witnessed or heard of out in the backwoods?
not sure how it is in montana but i lived in the canadian rockies for years a bit more north and even in july the nights would get close to 0 celcius, no way that sleep bag would be enough. Maybe he handles the cold well
ADD COLLOIDAL SILVER , A BOTTLE WITH A SPRAY NOZZLE, AND A GENERATOR , EASY LIGHT,
What pair of kühls you wear? Look like some solid pants for everyday tasks.
I’d be really interested in how you pack all that or if you spread load it between you and Rebecca
@3:56 that's a definite importante high up on the list
Item for the blow up mattress that I carry is a bicycle patch repair kit it works amazing.
hey pat ...can you be more specific on what you bring for fishing gear
Anti-diarrheic medication. Hershey squirts can ruin a trip.
Would love to know your thoughts on staying calm and procedures in traffic accidents and confrontations. Awesome stuff as always
Quick and easy water filtration I use is the grayl geopress, it is AWESOME for float trips, hiking, hunting. It's definitely worth a look!
Been looking at that one, did you get the 24oz size? and any negatives you can think of?
@@PapajosTraders yes 24oz. No real big cons, super sturdy. Just read the instructions and put it up dry👍
katadyn befree is the best option on the market right now... change my mind
Big Pat Mac, any vids of Bob Marshall trip?
Thanks Pat you rock! I enjoy all your BASIC DUDE STUFF!
Pat Mac ,what brand of knifes do you like?
It’s therapeutic for me too! Osprey packs are great!
Dude's always listening to heavy metal
I wanna see a video of your trip into Montana. That would be epic
Tenacious tape for most any fabric repair. Great stuff.
Dig Chimaira in the background.
Where’s the video of all this stuff fitting in the bag
Love that friggin shirt. Badassery
SUPER COOL CONTENT! CONGRATS FROM CHILE!
Love to see howyou cook trout in the field Sua Sponte'
I love that 1965 GTO. Make a video with it.
