Backpacking gear that I love and you didn't know you needed until now. 
Развлечения
If you like campfires or cooking with charcoal, there's a piece of gear called a pocket bellows. It's basically a telescoping metal tube. It lets you blow concentrated air on a portion of the fire. Really helps to get things going if your wood isn't very dry.
But the really cool thing is that I can usually find one that fits an adapter to one of my little pumps. I have a flextail gear tiny pump and the gen 2. The gen 1 will fit the longer thinner pocket bellows and the gen 2 fits the shorter wider one. It turns the pump into a more multi purpose item. The flextail gear one also has a lantern built in with a nice warm color temperature. I tied some dyneema thread and made a hook with a paperclip so I can hang it on branches around camp.
The fire blowstick (pocket bellow) is a piece I never leave at home. It is truly a life saver.
@@michaelsporer2089 yeah, it's definitely allowed me to get fires going in the past when I had no business getting past a smoulder. It was nice out in the PNW.
I've used one of those. Works great with a pump
I never knew the southern accent worked so wonderfully with your everyday hipster. Great content mate!
Lol thank you!!
Pro tip; compression gloves intended for arthritis relief fit close, have that half-finger feature, & they usually have a silicone ribbing on the palms for enhanced grip. You can get them for super cheap, too.
Another great vid, Mr. Stringer! Hope you + yours are happy & well.
That's a great tip!!
The best piece of camping gear I’ve ever purchased is an ultralight backpacking cot. I have used it in a tent, in a lean-to, in a vehicle, in a guest room, and in a hotel.
That sounds wonderful
A bidet, I know not everyone is sold on this one yet but trust me once you are you will wonder why you didn't switch sooner. As far as the frying pan and chair I just cannot justify the weight. I know HYOH. For those that do not hike long miles/days or the ones that hike in groups and socialize at camp at the end of the day that might be fine. I'm older, hike solo, don't sit around the fire at night. I spent a lot of time and money to drop my baseweight to save my knees, back, shoulders, etc because I'm older and have done a lot of stupid things when I was younger. People say oh these don't weigh that much, but it adds up. I didn't work hard to drop 2 or however many lbs off my packs baseweight just to put it right back on with something else. If it works for you great I'm happy for you. It's kind of like the bidet works for me that doesn't mean it will work for you or everyone.
I'm in the same boat. Now and then I'll take a little Silky saw but thats rare.
Oh I love a bidet. I use one every day
Yes haha, packs are brimming with kit that 'Barely weighs anything' or 'Doesn't take up MUCH space'...
Fun video! My two tips: The Flextail Gear tiny pump -- inflates pad very quickly, the charge lasts a long time, and some of them come with a built in light. Fingerless gloves -- I had trouble finding good ones, so I just found a pair of gloves that I liked at Costco and cut the fingertips off. Works great and much less expensive! Happy hiking!
+1 for the Flextail pump, comes with accessories to fit just about any kind of inflatable from pads to pool toys. Not locked into a proprietary pump for just one pad/valve system.
I have a Flextail Pump. They are great
Grab an aquarium bubble stone and you have a footspa, assuming you have a collapsible sink too of course.
Warm the water, add teatree oil or whatever and let your air pump bubble you out 👍
Level 3 kit that weighs next to nothing :-D
Let's go! Always love the gear videos.
Glad you enjoyed it, Jon :D
I enjoy your videos. I use some of the equipment you test or recommend. I use for canoeing to keep portage weight down. Clothing for hiking is good for canoeing in most cases.
A lot of overlap for canoeing when it comes to backpacking gear :D Thanks for watching
Instead a chair with a frame that can be over a pound in weight I bring a hammock chair. The only down side is you need to 2 trees to set it up but for me the trade off is worth it. The weight is ounces, certain ones can double as a rain cover for your pack and mine also doubles as a storage loft below my hammock so i can stow all my gear under me and keep it off the ground.
Hammock chairs are great. I have one that’s a poop hammock chair
For chairs, I've been loving my Crazy Creek Hex 2.0. Super quick to take out and take down - I keep it on the outside of my pack and roll it out whenever. Some other uses I've found for it: extra ground pad (as a side sleeper, I put it under my hip which sometimes presses down through the inflatable), as a pad to kneel on (great when it's cold or snowy), and as a wind barrier around a camp stove. We've also started keeping a few in the car for the kids' soccer games and the like.
Sounds like a great piece of versatile gear :D
I have the Big Agnes Skyline UL stool that I carry on day hikes and I love it. Bought the stool because it was crazy cheap a few months ago at REI. Gets wet and rainy in the Cascades of Washington and a sit pad isn't always great. The little stool is a game changer. If the chair is half as good, you should buy it, like, yesterday.
Love a good stool as well. Anything to get me off the ground lol
Thanks!
Really appreciate the love!! Thank you for the support :D
Great advice as always!😃
Thank you!! :D
Expandable wipes…just a little water and you have a wet rag. I use them to wash my feet, legs, and face before getting into my quilt.
Love it!!
Good recommendations.
Thanks, Tom :D
I bought a cheap titanium frying pan/high wall plate thing with folding handles from Keith Titanium on ebay. You can season it like you would cast iron.
Great options
The pumps are awesome and best of all you avoid damp getting inside your sleep pad, which can lead to mouldiness and a cold night.
Very good point, Kirsten
I tend to use the base layer like sweats around the campsite in the evening and mornings when it's cool. The pee-hole can be a little drafty.
Totally agree with the half-finger gloves. I've got some old ones that I picked up for fly-fishing that are wonderful. (they are no longer made)
My thermarest came with a pump - however my friend's pump is great that it also sucks. Makes rolling up the pad afterwards that much easier.
Didn't think about the pee hole being drafty lol
I agree Doc, I think the pee hole is for lazy People. Also time consuming, by the time one pulls the hose pip out. Much quicker just flip Jack out over the top.
Here's something you may not have heard of. You can use an SOL Emergency blanket as a durable ground sheet for your tent. It will reflect a little heat back up at you as well, which is great for this time of year. You can also put it around your sleeping bag or quilt if you get too chilly at night. And of course you can wrap up in it to not die of hypothermia. They're cheap, lightweight, durable, multipurpose, and can literally save your life.
Gotta watch condensation with those.
I used one a few years ago during the polar vortex here in KY when the temps dipped towards single digits. Had to, but got condensation. Still kept me warm layered with two other sleeping bags
Just made them big enough for the chubbies like me
In the winter I carry something called "hot sockees". They are toe warmers that you don't throw away.
That sounds amazing!
Fanny pack. I have my headlamp, Leukotape, scissors, glide, car key (on secure clip), snacks, and other essentials at my fingertips. I find that, if things like sunscreen are on my back somewhere, I delay using them until absolutely necessary, which is often too late.
That’s a good kit
I keep wanting to get a frying pan but haven't pulled the trigger yet! I can't think of anything we use that everyone doesn't already use. I always try to keep an open mind when I'm at any store randomly looking at things to see if they might help in backpacking in some way shape or form but haven't had a breakthrough yet!
You gotta get one! You'll love it
I just use regular stainless pots/pans from Walmart, the camping isle all that stuff says stainless but it aluminum use a magnet
I use a Jetboil skillet. It's not cheap but it's brilliant
This video is a treasure of GOLD material.... thank you! 🤣
Glad you enjoyed it
Nalgene collapsible canteen for a nighttime pee bottle. Highly recommend 🦑
Count me on, Squidly
I like more of a midlayer for the bottom something that goes over my shorts so I can take it off if need be without "changing" in the middle of the trail when I get too hot because im lazy I'm looking for a thin lightweight fleece pant thats loose fitting ... if I'm not planning on wearing warm leggings except to sleep ill use tight fitting base layers like smartwool or whatever but I still just pull them over my shorts so in the morning all I'm doing is taking them off and stuffing them in my bag I'm too lazy to take the time to secure pants under my shorts i will eventually change to just shorts
Also if you use a foam mat you don't have to pump up anything to sleep and it takes no battery they take up more space when packed but after the 1st night they get really comfortable and don't fail in my opinion foam mats are better for uneven ground with a lower center of gravity you wi feel less like your falling or sliding off your pad than if you use an air mat on uneven ground which is hard to avoid when backpacking... I know it's not for everyone but don't be afraid to give it a try especially if your going to be out for more than 2 or 3 nights at a time
All about the comfort on trail :D
Good stuff.
Thanks, Mark
Helinox chair two for the second-place win LOL. Great gear selection man.
That's another great one!
Nice specs bro 😎
Thank you :D
A screened bug shelter for cooking & eating in high bug season that CAN use optional poles when car camping, but if u have trees, a ridgeline is enough & good for hiking in the backcountry. Weighs under 5lbs, a small price to pay to ensure ur wife stays happy & comfortable, happy wife, happy life 👍 Mechanical instead of chemical (I have an inoperable brain tumor & need to stay away from known & probable carcinogens!)
Eureka! NoBugZone CT11
The bug shelter sounds amazing!! :D
Helinox has a highback version of their Chair Zero. Much better for folks with longer torsos. 24 oz.
I’ve tried that one. It’s a little bigger than the zero and a little smaller than the sunset. It’s nice
Carpenter gloves are best 2 fingers and thumb are exposed for dexterity but the rest is covered like a mechanic glove
I’ll have to try them
I dig the t-shirt man.
Thanks dude. Had to have it :D
Nice to see John Kelly. He always say Jeremiah Stringer all the time on his videos.
He's a dear friend :D
What jacket is that you have on there Jeremiah?
That’s a Ventas hoodie by outfit vitals
@@JeremiahStringer I thought so, but couldn’t see the logo well. I like that color option. Thanks for the reply! And give me a heads up if you’re ever in Alabama hiking! Happy trails!
Hi mate!
Love ur videos and have used lots of ur tips but it would be much nicer if u could include the weight in grams as well so us guys who's not from the states will understand it as well
Happy trails from sweden! 🚶♂️🏕
28 grams to the ounce.
Good thinking. I'll try in the future :D
Jeremiah don't tell me I missed out. My credit card says otherwise. LOL
XD touche
I don't have a pad or pillow but use a mini pump and aquarium bubble stone to create a footspa in my collapsible sink.
#lvl3kit
That sounds awesome!
@@JeremiahStringer After a hard day you wouldn't Be-Lieeeeeve how good it is :-D
Compressible pillow! And you gave me crap for my gloves and wear those mits??? 😂
Lol I'm a hypocrite XD
@@JeremiahStringer 🤣
I need to see these people that bring whole eggs backpacking.
That would be me on a slow winter morning. Love bacon, eggs and biscuits with some cheese
Try to find someone who raises chickens. Fresh eggs do not need refrigeration, you can take them in the middle of summer. The shells tend to be harder, carried in one of those plastic egg cartons it’s no problem.
Personally, I'd say a $150 chair "breaks the bank". REI Flexlite Air is $70 right now.
I've sat in the REI version, the Helinox version, the Nemo version, and the Big Agnes version. I'm a huge REI fan and I own a lot of their brand of gear, but the other versions of a flyweight chair are a whole lot more comfortable than the REI one. The REI one is narrow and short - and I'm not anywhere near to being a large person. I have short legs and the seat of the REI one cut right into the backs of my thighs. I'd rather pay extra and be comfortable. The good thing about REI is it was easy to learn that there because they don't care if you set stuff up in the store as long as you put it back.
@@Tory1776 Well I'm glad you found something that works. Your problem with the rei chair may have actually been that your legs are too short. Both the flexlite air and the chair zero require you to sit with your legs at a certain angle to be most comfortable. With the rei chair, you need to have your feet closer to you when you're seated. If your legs are too short, they can't create that angle comfortably. It works for me just fine. In my opinion, the flexlite is much more stable than the chair zero when you elevate your legs to ottoman level. That's real trail luxury lol. I also saved $80 over the helinox, and that's always nice.
I suppose it depends on the gear budget. Flexlite chair is awesome too
Hot dog stick- See Jason for the details
XD that's hilarious!!
I don't feel like I am missing out on any of these. Just sayin'. One of the newer pieces of gear that I used on my hike last week and loved is the Arms of Andes Alpaca Hoody. Great piece - warm and breathable and has a half zip for venting.
I really gotta get my hands on some Alpaca clothing
Poop bags. Poop skills in general. 😅
Count me out on the poop XD
I use a pumpsack just because i hate the turbine Sound of an electric Mini pump in the midst of remote nature . That Sound is so aweful that i stopped bringing one and use the pump / stuffsack
The noise is annoying. Def not going to see wildlife lol
Hey I saw @BackpackingwithBuckley in this video, cool.
Love that guy!
