And this is me kitchen sink. Great piece of kit. I always have this with me. It’s handy for washing me dishes, draining me pasta, stuff like that. It’s got shiny taps. I’ve tied a bit of para cord on it. You’ll have seen me using this in all me videos. Loads of uses.
Nice loadout! and nice pack, thank you for sharing. You have a well thought out kit. I'm still trying to perfect mine. Always good to see other loadout's .
Love those wool blankets, winter time I put one on my bed over the duvet it makes a massive difference. I like your kit it's almost the same as mine and I always have a hot water bottle it's the best part of the evening getting in a warm bag.
Are you sure that this Loadout is only 16 kg without water? Is that half or a full Lavvu? I have a similar Loadout on a Medium size ALICE and I'm coming in at 21 kg without food, but 2 litres of water. Heaviest items you have appear to be the Lavvu, two wool blankets and the 4 season sleeping bag, that alone must be a fair few kg.
great video have watched all your vids and getting my last bits together for wild camp . have you left carp fishing as thats what i am doing and is it worth it thank you.
I had one of those bergens when I was an adult instructor with the Somerset Army Cadets and when I left it was still in great condition! Considering how many times is was thrown into the bottom of a coach of in a Bedford 4 tonne lorry! Looking to get another one soon😊
when i see that backpack, i think about where life would be great with an ATV, Mrs. Bushwaker at the back, and out through the woods to camp ground, fresh and ready for a good outdoor weekend.
A good pair of small pruning shears is good to have in your kit they are quite to use for cutting small tinder around 1inch and smaller and you don't have to burn up so many calories to use them as you would be using chopping and make sure you have a sharping stone and a file
as i was watching...i was going thru my gear, and packing some things my pack is very much like yours i will check out the link below....so tired of winter and needed some camp related activity .....thz for posting
Thats a very nice pack, I know because its truly not that much different from my loadout. I carry a ka bar, silky saw and gorilla tape as well. Other than that, still must everything is the same, other than the brand name. I also use a military sleeping bag in the winter. The extreme cold weather OLA100-84-C-4060 to be exact. Most of my stuff is military surplus. Molle II pack, 2 wool blankets, sleeping bag, the ka bar, shovel, rain gear, some of my cook set and a couple of other odds and ends. It must have something to do with age. I've seen packs from other guys our age carry close to the same thing.
This is really cool! I'm going to research bergens now. Say, I was wondering, have you used that scotch eye auger much? I saw one video where they tested them in the field, and they ended up not being practical because the torque needed rapidly increases with depth, to the point of unusability.
I never filter water 💧 and simply drink direct from streams, rivers and lakes. 17kg is very light for such a large volume bag plus extras strapped outside (obviously the wool blankets are taking up the majority of volume). I often carry 25-35kg in a Kata 57l or my Fjallraven Kajka 65l.
All right mate do you leave your kit packed are do you repack every time you go out I find I'm constantly repackaging me kit and most of the time I take to much kit 😂😂😂 you can't beat the British army issue burgen iv got the old cam one had it over 20 years and still going strong atvb jimmy 😎 😎
Cheers Jimmy i leave the bulk items in my bag, and swap out a few smaller things depending on the camp situation. Good to hear your bag is still going strong 👍👍
top load out, ... i could easily pick up your bergen and spend a week out in the woods with it, The only real difference i see to my kit, is that i carry more clothing, (i tend to have dry clothing to sleep in and i love having a parka for the end of the day as i dont/cant always have a fire)
Nice load out. I usually have few backups as well. I the multi cam rain gear. Military surplus here is to pricey. For day hikes i switch over to the helicon tex bushcraft but for overnight stays i still the military surplus molle 2 .
If you use frh's you can put them into your hotty cover after heating your food as a nice little lap/foot/handwarmer, heats valuable out there, use every scrap of it that you can :-D Shemagh tassles are great firestarters too.
Blimey!! Can't believe all that came in at only 17kg! Very interesting. Really enjoyed it! I'm obviously doing something wrong, because my big load outs come in at around 40ibs, but I'm carrying far less gear, though I do carry spare clothes. Something I've found from experience is needed, even though we might not necessarily use them; much like a first aid kit. Would you carry spare clothes too, with this load out. The video has made me question that I could do so much more lol.. Or at least get my weight down! The bag that is, not me 😂
Nice one I've got the same bag but in dpm. Been thinking about getting that shelter system hot water bottle love it I use the Zippo hand warmers when really cold .Going to go through your vids 😁
Great load. Was this just to show us, the viewer, what you carry? Since I don't see any actual food and you said you didn't bring water. Do you have any videos showing what foods you bring for a 3 or 4 day camp? I just subscribed. Cheers from Canada
Dude! Where are you going and for how long? People spend 3months on the SO &PCT with less junk!!! The cold weather gear is ok but dump or find lighter alternatives to the rest of that stuff! Or are you just going 100feet into th woods??
Hot water bottle, magnifying glass, 7-8 torches, flint rocks… How far exactly do you carry that lot? Don’t get me wrong I love kit as well but that can’t be practical to hike with all that

I always carry more than one ferro rods. One on my knife one in my pocket with a paracord lanyard attached to my belt and one in my cook kit. I also carry three lighters and storm proof matches. Fire making is too important to not be without also char cloth jute twine and vaseline soaked cotton balls.
I've got the same bergan and I find it uncomfortable, granted I'm only 5,7 tall and 11 stone so maybe it's too big for me. I only carry 10 kilo but it doesn't feel good.
They were designed to be worn with a belt kit. They rest on the pouches. The hip pads are too short and anyone with no hips will find a Bergen quite uncomfortable.
Same with my electric blanket, having to spend a few pounds on electric cable. Once the government installs battery charging ports all over the UK they might think about bushcrafters and all there electrical kit. 🤡🇬🇧
I'm just learning - and you had great suggestions for your kit. Makes me think of going the rucksack way instead of a conventional pack. Setting up an BOB/INCH bag so need lots of size. I figure in winter to need a couple wool blankets too. My wife thinks i should go with the 70L bag - but seems far too tiny for long term use. Thanks for the video
@@BushwackerMan It's an incredible feat. I have a rucksack, I never go anywhere but it weighs 13 pounds, and I can hardly manage it. Oh well, I can always watch you tube.
This is more of an INCH bag than just a mere winter wild-camping bag. It's good, but way overkill for anything over than a societal collapse survival system IMO.
In my view far too much unnecessary and luxury kit lol...how many knives do you need? However if you don’t have to carry this stuff for miles all your missing is a kitchen sink and a backup kitchen sink. Professional and entertaining videos though.

Very soon Benny my poor old back 👍👍
Very interesting to about wild camping very good kit
Looks well thought out !
great kit you should look around for solar panel to charge your batteries to hang on the back of your bag when walking.in joy
I have one, it works great.
I decided to get the exo mountain 5500. I already had the titanium frame for it.

Im not a hiker but nice bag. I maybe tempted to use the aluminum as a cook rack especially it having its own sealable compartment.
you have forgot one iron anvil in your bag :p
Next time 👍👍
Do you realy stow your blankets like that ??
nice loadout, but the most important piece of your kit is Buster!!

Lol, pipe down.
Hi ! What did you use exactly as a molle sheath for your Auger scotch eye bit ? I'm searching for one for my 1.5 inch.
It came with it i cant remember were i purchased it from 👍👍
I think il take a silky blade with duvk tape as s handle and back up duck tape.
Hot water bottle, magnifying glass, 7-8 torches, flint rocks…

Make sure your fire tinder is waterproof m8
