Love that you include and/or admit to any mistakes in your videos, Bjorn. They're hilarious; you have a great sense of humor. 😀
I like that you are honest. So many are not real.
Grandpa gave me a small Buck knife when I was 10 , for Christmas , once he asked me for it when we were working , to sharpen his pencil , I didn’t have it ! He asked me why ? I said I forgot it ! But haven’t since day ! Lesson learned !
“... I fell asleep on the couch.” LOL Love the Honesty! 😄💟☯️
Bjorn... You forgot chocolate coffee or tea! Treats are needed to keep morale up 😉
By the way brother.
Never underestimate the power of a good nap !!
I frequently end up falling asleep but at my age it's acceptable. I don't think I qualify as a UL camper by any stretch of the imagination, but I accept the weight for comfort at 61. Much of my gear is military surplus and it works great, I have however recently begun buying lighter gear that's purely civvie stuff. In the North of England I would imagine the climate not far from Southern Norway in Summer. Mozzies are a curse - everywhere!! So I'm considering your gadget there. Good Video Thanks for posting.
"it's called a camera" 😂
some people are so addicted to there phones that they forgot how is the world around it 🤦🏼♂️
Given the times, practising with u/l gear is gucci.
Load up.. Push yourself.. Go further.... Harden up.
There is nothing you can learn from U/L that will serve you for whats ahead, besides U/L being inadequate.
For long snowmobile rides , 2 to 3 days gone , we have gear to survive with us , in case you crash night in the middle of nowhere , no moon ! It’s dark ! Brake early ! There’s Moose
Hi bjorn I cant beleave all that fit in a small bag looks so lovely there enjoy ur videos thankyou 👍🌲
A filtered water straw , drink from a muddy puddle , each one says 300 gallons , so figure 50 safe ones !
Feathers are warm ! My below -10 F , snowmobiling jacket , wind stop outer , 900 gram
UL Backpacking is so much fun. Honestly it changes the whole experience. You don't need to have a sore back or sore feet. There are so many advantages to going lighter. Also, one of my favorite things is having a UL pack and then having lots of luxurious food. I've packed out an entire sub sandwich once! It's weight you can eat! Nothing better than packing fresh fruit and veggies, too.
Have you ever considered making your own gear? I made a 20 degree quilt for the CDT a couple years ago and it was awesomely satisfying to make it myself.
Good to see some hiking content from you, brother!

Bjorn, you’re like a right-wing Lorax 😂😂😂, love you man
There are plenty of sticks! 😁 But, just like you can make tent pegs in the field, sometimes it rains. If you need shelter fast, it is good to carry a set of plastic or Aluminum pegs. The trekking poles are a good idea if your shelter needs support, too.
You know...a smart phone would replace all that heavy camera gear....just kidding! The Thermocell is a great piece of gear. They make one that attaches to the top of the ubiquitous isopropane fuel can, has pads that go in it but no other fuel required. If you carry a canister stove anyway it's a great tool to add. They really work as you obviously know.
Hei hello , from Upper Michigan , above the bridge !
In the UK it is a criminal offence to carry knifes in public, _even_ for camping. There is 'some' movement for the law depending on situation, but essentially you can be arrested if searched.
Yes. Can you imagine if Ray Mears or Bear Grylls were stopped and searched? Police: 'Why do you have a 6 inch knife and a folding saw?'
Ray/Bear: 'Because I am going wild camping!'
Police: 'No. You are nicked!'
Ha ha, yes I know they hate each other, but I enjoy both of their programmes.
Someone I worked with had his car stopped and searched. He was a reformed former addict and was well known to the police. They didn't find any drugs, but they found a Stanley knife in the glove compartment. Arrested and nearly 6 months imprisonment!
It's getting pretty scary, Seems like it simply is a global dictrorship. If I go camping I'm taking everything with me!
What I have heard is that the police will use some common sense when it comes to knives here. I don't know what the law says about it, I have never thought much about it. I carry knives all the time, as I always seem to use one around the property, or of course when I go out in the woods etc.
In western Australia you can carry knives for work recreation and if U have a good reason but self defence is not a good reason and that makes it illegal !
You are allowed to carry a non locking folding knife with blade less than 3 inches.
Out camping you should be fine with this.
Hey Bjorn! Getting up too tired to do an overnighter happens all the time especially when sleeping trumps getting up! So, the OVER-DAYer works for me! Great instructional episode! Thanks man!
Dear sir
Good day
For those of us who enjoy the knowledge you have shared enough simplicity for a person to have the necessities to enjoy a night out in the wilderness with nature the best comfort given to us
Almost everything we need is provided for us
To hear nature in the background as you video tape is wonderful
Thank you for taking the time to share your personal knowledge
Question
How often is your furry family with you on the overnighters
Have a wonderful day
Spring time
Also my favorite time of year next the fall
Stay safe
Be well
Keep on trucking
Thank you, Eva. Wise words. My dogs will be joining me next time. It has been a bit too cold for them until now.
I am always amazed at how much cool stuff you get into your backpack!!! 👍😃
Another great relaxing video from Bjorn, the outdoors ones are my faves. because that was how I discovered this channel. Yes, it's interesting and informative to see the opinion on current affairs videos, especially from a Pagan non vacuum cleaner perspective (use first 3 letters from vacuum to see what I mean).
I live in a city in England and for years now I watch nature/hiking/hunting videos as an escape from the mundane and stressful city. I am in my late 50's now and if I had my time again I would've emigrated to Alaska.
I saw a video from a UK RUclipsr. I think it was RV outdoors or something? Anyhow he said to always bring a metal pencil sharpener in your pack. Why? Because you scrape the bark off of twigs, twist them in the pencil sharpener, and you have dry tinder scrapings to start a fire with! I thought that was a brilliant simple idea.
Hi there! Thanks for the comment! I very much appreciate that. And I had to think twice about the vacuum thing, haha. And I have actually made a video about bringing a pencil sharpener, a long time ago!
@@BjornOutdoors Wow. Whoever thought of it first, then great minds think alike. Ha Ha
Logan bread is good, it can last long time, i baked some today because im going hiking in this weekend then i just eat that for midday lunch.
Looking healthy and well bjorn..green colour suits you...
Thank you, Fiona!
UL can still be comfortable, some great choices Bjorn!👍
I know those overnighters on the couch :-) Nice vid again!
Greets from the Netherlands 🌷, T.
I thought you were a ground sleeper Bjørn? ;) but as you said, Norwegian woodlands are packed with ants or ticks. That's the only reason i might use a hammock.
I love the outdoors videos
Enjoy your next camping trip! I can't believe some people are so uninformed they don't understand some of us use real camera's. I only use a phone to call or text someone when necessary. I don't even keep my phone turned on during the day. I live in the real world and am present! Wow! It's so true some people have no clue! LOL. Enjoy your day Bjorn! Have fun!!!
That's so something I'd do! Get everything ready, then fall asleep! SKÅL brother!
Hi Bjorn , you use very Similar equipment to me , I use Katadyne , and Thermocells , both work well , and take only what I need depending on how long I am going for .
Always great to watch your videos Bjorn.
Good video Bjorn, it's always interesting to see what other folk pack when trying to go lightweight. I've managed to get down to about 6kg base weight for an overnight in the mountains and completed the West Highland Way with a 9kg base weight which included a 3 person tent and a cook kit for 2 people. It makes the journey far more enjoyable.
Thanks for the memories Norske.
My one but fatal critique is the dreadful noise all that plastic and nylon makes, survival,OK …but daily use give me some good cotton. Im new here, missing min Danske Köne.- from a warrior royal guard family….salaam mir shanti
I found this to be very interesting and informative .
Especially since on line you can usually get the same .
I used to go hiking and backpacking all the time with my brothers in the spring-summer-fall. We would hike to areas to find new hidden fishing spots that were not part of the "normie" trails. It made it fun to prep our gear since we had to carry all of our fishing stuff in our packs, even the felt bottom boots (so you won't break your ankles when crossing waterways) food, and then your normal hiking gear/back packing gear. Weight was the main theme and we knew ounces=ouches. Sadly, those adventures ended when I was told I was no longer part of the family by my brothers since I refused to think like them and not follow their orders like a good little soldier. (we grew up in a military family and they believed their age granted them higher ranking within the family. You also were defined about how much money you made and not if you were a decent human) I miss going on those adventures, but I don't miss them.
One day they will regret it.
Thanks for the dugout of your backpack. Myselfs as a woodsman I arange my gear depends on the kilometers I go. If I go less than 10km I go heavy. More than 10km I go lightweight. 🤠👍
Hi bjorn i made a spoon but it got coated in blood in the making haha, good video
Sorry to hear that! But thanks!
Takk for en interessant video. Jeg er ikke ultralett backpacker, men liker å holde vekten på sekken lav, likevel. Jeg bor også i nærheten av skog, og det er på mange måter en annerledes utfordring enn fjell.
En ide til en video kunne være å vise hvordan du velger teltplass i norsk barskog. Jeg synes ofte det kan være en utfordring, og det hadde vært interessant å se hva du vektlegger.
I bought my final home and right below it I have a limestone cave. Guess what two homes and 1 purchase for less than 24000
Next time you are tired or just want some extra juice try some beet powder! I just started taking pure beet powder and feel like I can go further and do more!
Thanks for the video. I’m still at the beginning but I have to say, any man who doesn’t carry a knife should reconsider. And, any man who doesn’t carry at least a knife in the woods should strongly reconsider lol
Thank you, so helpful.
Love these videos, like a meditation for the soul and mind.
Thank you for your work 🙏
PS the tape is a great idea 👍
4.8 kilo base weight well done, with everything 12 kilo is light for me in May , but that is hiking for days, I am going to try 7 kilo base weight or 9 kilo for a overnighter, with all weight, in the next week :) awesome video Bjorn tussen tak,
Excellent episode, my friend! Loved it!
Nice little look at some of you're kit. I'm struggling to get my daypack under 10kg 😂. Hope you manage to get out for an overnighter soon . Take care Bjorn 👍
Bjorn, good to see you, could you make some small sailing outings? Always love all your talks.
Super sweet ultralight ish loadout love my Bogler trowel I'm digging it!!(= make sure you cut your toothbrush in half to lighten the laod!!😆✌️💚✊️🔥
Notebook Bjorn ;)
Great kit, very interested about the mosquito device?
"...there are a few sticks out here...." haha!
Why don’t you bring your Fjellreven backpack? I don’t agree that everything should be as lightweight as possible. Fjellreven backpacks feels lighter than they are because of the sturdy construction. And I bring Mora Wit (smaller than the Lok) with leather sheath because it’s cooler with leather than plastics.
Stupid people say stupid things .good to see you out 👍
Larger and bulkier man, sleeping on thin, no-air pad would feel like sleeping on rough asphalt or uneaven ground...in short painful and sleepless experience. Can try though, but quality sleep requires comfy pad.
Hi Bjorn, Im thinking of visiting Norway to do some hiking/wild camping, next few months , advice on places to go, rules etc, advice you consider essential for your neck of the woods? Im in the UK
Grrreat video! Are you mainly a woodland kind of guy or do you hike in the mountains too? Also, are you planning to make a video about food on longer hikes? You use freeze dried food? Did you for example try the new Lars Monsens Jegergryte? :P
Need more money for equipment. Thx for the advice my friend PS: BTW how are things up there with "the neighbors" now that sweden and finland joined nato??
Thanks! A lot of equipment can be bought second hand and good quality lasts a long time! Concerning our neighbors, it's obviously good news, especially for us here in Norway.
Wow, you’re already so dry that you have a fire ban? In Norway?! I didn’t realize it got that dry that early in the year for you guys. Do you not get much spring rain? I’m in the northern US, so not familiar with your climate.
We haven't had much rain this spring, so now it's extremely dry out in the forest. And we're not really into the summer months yet. I hope we get a lot more rain than previous years.
Har aldri filtrert eller kokt vann fra norsk natur før jeg drikker det🤔
Vad hände med Lundhags Gneiken ?
How long have you had thay pack, and does it hold up to wear? I know leather is heavy, but I have a bradley mountain canvas and leather wilder rucksack that has lasted me for almost ten years. All I've heard from ultralight hikers is that you have to baby UL gear because of how fragile it is.
I have used my ultralight Zpacks Arc Blast for more than two years, two hikes per week on average. It's as good as new. It's the most durable backpack I've had.
A fire ban? A man not being able to light a fire to cook or get warm by If that doesn't go so perfectly against natural law I don't know what does.
It is because of the danger of starting a wildfire in the forest.
No offense but why does your light stuff sound like a bag of chips? Is there quieter options? 9 min into vid like the set up
Hi Alyssa. It doesn't, but you can get another fabric if you prefer so at Zpacks. I prefer this one.
@@BjornOutdoors how did the Viking carry all there belongings with them when traveling? I know they travelled thousands of miles all the time.
This smella like marketing...
I really hate you "I fell asleep on the coach people " my friends do this but not me I have to plan to go to sleep.its not an impromptu thing for me. Also I'm very much against napping . I think I'm the one with the problem.
