    About 6 weeks ago in the Porcupine Mountains, MI I attempted to break my 1 day backpacking record of 29.2 miles from 2019 on the Superior Hiking Trail. It was 80 F and humid. At about 22 1/2 miles it was hammock time! 😀 Maybe another day. Thanks for another great sintax video! 👍

    Another great video. That's one thing I love about hammock camping and carrying a second tarp; if the rain comes, i will always have shelter to cook and eat under.

    The video finding flight 792 had a private property sign in it. My uncle has a share of that property and cabin. The cabin we call the wig wam. Haven’t seen it in over 20 yrs but you let me see the entrance gate. Brought me goosebumps. Thank you 🙏

    This was a great watch Syntax. That looks like some pretty country. I like the looks of that tent way more than the AT thruhiker standard that everyone gets. I like the tiny footprint. Seems like right at that moment when you’re so exhausted your mumbling your words, the only sites are full of roots and rocks so it’s nice to have a small footprint. You’re buddy Dave seems pretty chill. Thanks again. NQU

    The OLP was my first backpacking trip, and we did it in drought conditions similar to these (July 2020). Although it was also 95 degrees! As it was our first overnight, we were too nervous about water to dry camp, so we stayed at the campsite you got water at on day 2 (near the road - not ideal, but we only saw one car drive by) and at Pleasant Stream. The Pleasant Stream campsite was amazing. Love seeing this trail, and I hope to experience it again in non-drought conditions!

    I loved this little video. The mini canyon towards the end of your video was really nice. Please name me one piece of inflatable gear you would buy over and over. I think inflatable is over inflated in price and under inflated in durability. My pillow is a Thermarest pillow case I stuff with clothing, stuff sacks etc. It will never lose air and I sleep fine. Keep making videos and more importantly.... Backpacking.

    Hey, nice trip! I was testing Lanshan Pro 2 similar tent and the drops you had from rain reminded me of what I had on the inside in my perfectly pitched tent that is very similar, just single layer. What tent are you using? I think I am gonna try to sell that Lanshan I have, it's a disaster, when I slept in it I moved out to sleep in bivy next to tent cause water was dripping on my facet and it wasn't even raining.

    This one brought back memories. Those campsites along Rock Run are awesome. They also make a great single overnight hike and camp if you park on Yellow Dog Rd. Too bad you missed the view from Sharp Top. I'm sure there would be people there if the weather was nice. I haven't been up there for a few years but you used to be able to drive up close to it.
    Love the way you document your trips. Thanks for sharing.

    I'd be a bit careful "cooking" stuff in tins/packets; they tend to be lined or coated with a thin layer of plastic which might have stuff that can leach out, and you don't want too much of that in your body.

      Excellent point and Dave and I did briefly discuss that. If the night time temps were lower, I definitely would have put some effort into doing that. But after that rain I got lazy and decided to just use the "reinflate every hour" method. 😅 The extra foam sit pad under my hips definitely helped as well.
