Great idea on the bigger gauze pads! I just threw a much bigger gauze pad and a roll of Coban in my first aid kit. I saw another video where a gentleman recommended bringing a light ankle brace. That’s a good idea too.
Hey recognize u guys from Ecola area I was resting when u guys showed up! Then passed u shortly after super cool ! Checking out videos for next yrs plans !
I've read that there is a Taxi Cab you can take from Warrenton to Fort Stevens Campground. To save fuel boil on a low to med heat,takes longer but uses considerably less fuel. ✌️
... Good video ,, Glad not a serious injury from the fall .. .. A more complete first aid kit is not much heavier than what you showed ( but that kit is much better than the boo-boo kits by ultralight Guru hikers tend to carry) ... and many times items needed might be for someone else .... 2-3 Advil and a couple of Band-aids don't go far ..
.. Unless going to be out for multiple days with multiple cooked meals , I always take 2- 4 oz cannisters ,, even if both full at start , you have fuel when first cannister runs out ,, then when back home dispose of empty and replace with a new full cannister ..(even if you refill your own) .. improves over taking an 8 oz or bigger ,and alerts you to fuel consumption used ... on trips where a town crossing is known ,, thinking to resupply ,, you can't always depend on outlets to having a replacement on the shelf .. Keep lighter or a piezo striker in cup with stove ... or buy a stove with piezo striker built on .. .. Lots of different size Nalgene bottles available, pick up a small one to carry your bulk electrolyte powder .. ... I don't acknowledge the comment of packing fears ,, but packing needs ,, if at altitude ,you can't trust the weather .. a simple sleep shirt of extra socks don't weigh much ..
U can measure how much fuel is left by floating the can, somehow, I've never done that. But the little canister holds just 30 mins of burn time at full blast, at sea level, which is fine as an overnighter or possibly weekend, alone. Multi-day x2, not likely, even with a full can. But, u "can" refill them with a special valve & a larger can. That's what I've been doing, but caveat emptor, take educated precautions 😅
Awesome video, glad this came on recommended.

Quite the adventure!
Despite a few issue it was a great trip. We lucked out on the weather.
@@ExploreTrekAdventure Im sure missing the coast, I moved to KCMO. First race next weekend in Kansas, it's gonna be muggy 🏃
Wow. Big change of scenery. Have a great race!

We definitely tried, but couldn’t get a hold of a taxi. Thankfully the road wasn’t terrible. 😀 Thank you for the fuel tip!

I didn't even bring a stove on the OCT. There's food everywhere.
True. Being able to hike into town for pizza was pretty cool. 😎
R u guys going out Thu night to watch the possible Northern Lights show?
Not sure we can get out but that would be cool to see!
obviously way after the fact try a Senchi for warmth

Do you really need those huge packs for 4 days?
I wouldn’t classify a 50L pack as huge but that is what we took.
