That's an impressive ultralight setup 👍 Thanks for sharing
Glad you like it 😊
Love the setup! Look forward to watching your trek. I just did a section hike from Big Bear (mile 266) to Silverwood Lake (mile 329). Great year to be hiking the PCT.
Thank you! I’m so excited to start! I was once at Big Bear, very beautiful there. :-)
You must be excited. Keep safe and enjoy it.
Thanks! I’m SO excited!
Be safe and have fun!!
Thank you! 😊
PCT is a dream! best of luck to you!
Thank you so much! It’s been my dream too, for so many years now! Can’t believe it’s happening :-)
@@helena_hikes 😍 have a good time, hope you'll make it all the way through
Phone pocket used for snacks… same girl! Have so much fun. I’m obsessed with the Sierras. Embrace the suck ❤🎉
Thank you so much!! 🥰❤️ I’m most excited for the Sierra!
Wishing a nice hiking on the PCT.
Thank you!

I start my PCT hike in 2 weeks on May 20th! I can’t believe it’s almost here!
Oh that’s so soon! All the best for you😍 I wish I could start in 2 weeks haha
@@helena_hikesThanks! Same to you 😊. I assume you’re doing a SOBO hike since you won’t be leaving for another two months?
Edit: Ah, you are doing SOBO. I watched until the end haha. Maybe I’ll pass you on the trail at some point!
@@Nick-kb2jc yeah going sobo ;-) hope to see you!
Ja cool 😎 viel Erfolg✌️👏
Danke😊
Viel Spass und und bleib Sicher😊
Danke! 😊
Sehr cool! Hab ein sehr aehnliches Setup. X-MID!!! Wir haben vor ein paar Wochen ein Trail Angel event fuer die ersten PCT hiker in der Mohave Desert veranstaltet. Habe sehr viele Deutsche getroffen. Wuensche dir ganz viel Spass!
Ohh danke 😊 wohnst du in den USA? :-)
Hi Elena, what about the full weight of the backpack?
Hi! My baseweight is 5,5 kg, I’ve excluded the camera. You can also see it on my lighterpack. The link is also in the description: lighterpack.com/r/g2e82m
Viel Spaß in den Staaten, hoffentlich hast du genug Zeit die Eindrücke mittels Video für uns alle fest zu halten!
Dankeschön! Ja, ich werde meine Kamera mitnehmen, und Videos machen 😍
미국 기후를 모르지만 비가 오면 매우 힘들것 같습니다
Wie ernährst du dich auf dem Trail? In deiner Packliste fehlt das ganze Essen und Trinken
Ja, das gebe ich nie dazu weil es nicht Teil von meinem base weight ist und immer variiert. Meistens linsen, Haferflocken, Ramen, tortillas und viel Nüsse, snickers, etc. immer je nach Verfügbarkeit im Supermarkt. Für die ersten 2 resupplies sende ich Pakete.
@@helena_hikes da du lighterpack nutzt solltest du das aber trotzdem angeben. Das wird ja nicht zum baseweight gerechnet aber trotzdem trägst du es und verfälscht so dein Gewicht um mehrere KG
Only two altitude sickness medication tablets? I feel like you should have more than that.
They should be enough for what I’m doing. :-) When you are at a point where you need these, you will have to go down to lower elevation immediately. They’re not there for making you feel good at altitude, but for preventing possible damage to lungs and brain. If you have acute altitude sickness, you shouldn’t keep hiking. I could bring more but I think if I would reach a point where I’d need to take them I would make sure to not go to that altitude again or acclimatise properly.
Are you going sobo?
Yeah sobo! Starting July 1st
Sunglasses and a sit pad, maybe?
I have sunglasses, but I didn’t show up them! My tyvek sheet also serves as a sitpad. :-)
What is the viagra for?
Altitude sickness. Researchers are still debating about the effectiveness but it has worked in some people: www.atsjournals.org/doi/10.1164/rccm.200406-804OC

@@helena_hikes thanks for your answer I had no idea
Did I just heard Viagra pills? 😅
Yes you did 😂
@helena_hikes oh well good luck on your thruhike I am jealous cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
@@DanielOutdoors thank you!!
You should really leave the inreach+carabiner at home. You will be on a marked trail with lots of traffic/people.
The inreach is not for navigation :-)
I'm an InyoSAR volunteer. Absolutely do not follow this advice. Especially because you are going late in the season and I'm assuming solo? Relying on others that you may or may not encounter to have a satellite communicator if the need arises is stupid and potentially deadly.
@@dcl97 thank you for your comment! Yeah I’m definitely not going to leave my inreach at home just because a stranger on the internet told me I won’t need it! I would never go on any thru hike without it.
