Thank you so much! It was really nice to see a woman’s perspective on what to bring. Also love the rooster in the background making the experience so authentic! Love Kauai!
Mahalo for this great video. My husband and I just got permits for first week of Sept I love that you said Crawler’s Edge wasn’t as bad as you thought. That is what I worry about. Just gonna take it real slow.
Great video ,thanks I m from Europe and living in the garden island 🏝of Kauai for 30 years .I did hiking 🚶♂️two times already hiking trails 👣 in 1990 and in 2019 I m sailor and sailed around the world ⛵🌎 from 2012 to 2018 , my next voyage around the world ⛵🌎 will be in 2022 July or August
This is awesome!! Cool seeing what you brought, when I hiked that trail I wore vans, had a bed sheet as my sleeping bag and I had 1 bag of ancient grains from Costco as my food for a few days, I look back and wish I packed smarter, but still It was an amazing experience we had.
Thanks, super helpful video! The link for the tripod isn't working, really wanted to get one for the upcoming trip. Could you relink or comment on the name/type you used? thanks
Thank you for the great tips. I have a couple questions if I may. Did you fly to kauai? I was wondering what camping equipment is not allowed on the plane. Were you able to pack the gas canister for your stove? Can I bring a knife with me?
I did not fly w my gear, I live on kauai. Don’t bring a gas can, you can buy that on island at Walmart. You can check a knife if you’re checking your bag, but not in a carry on. But either way to be safe you can buy that here on island too.
I really like this video! you do a great job speaking clearly, and give good tips.
You’re amazing! What a great video. Thank you! Hiking tomorrow, ahhhh! Wish me luck!

My feet would be destroyed if I did kalalau in vans lol!
The Sawyer Squeeze will screw on a Smart Water bottle. Nice to have as backup if the bag breaks.
Yes I agree! Love that it universally fits water bottles and not just the bags

I noticed the vendor I bought from discontinued that’s why link no longer works. I found this one is nearly the same a.co/d/2wV0AwS
Is there anywhere to rent gear for the trial?
Lemon tree at four mile?
