    Jetboil sells the outer insulation thing for your MiniMo. Nice video! I use the Mystery Ranch Terraframe 65L which had the convertible daypack from the lid. It's great for day hikes and fishing away from camp.

    At 7:33 that is the exact scenario where I snapped one of my trekking poles in half. It stopped my slide but only had the 1 pole so made for a rough hike out. On my most recent hiking video up Perez Lookout the top of one of my trekking poles broke off after I tossed it down the climbing sections.

    Lost (wrong turn, whatever…) - one of the primary advantages of the inReach over the Zoleo - using the mapping features. Even with the mini, you’ve got great navigation aids on your phone.

      I'm not sure why but I just started watching him so I've been watching videos from all different dates and it seems like he's always had a problem with sound if it's not one thing it's other, he's quickly became one of my favorite camping channels but the sound does get annoying sometimes it's just consistently on every video there's something wrong or something weird

    @tamaracheeseman183 2 года назад

    Great video! When the 2 of you backpack together, how do you divide the gear in your packs? I used to carry the food, b/c my husband reasoned that the food would keep getting lighter, while the te t weight was constant. Now he carries all the food/ water filtration/cooking gear and I carry our Tiger Wall UL2 with poles

    • @BackpackingTV
      @BackpackingTV  2 года назад +1

      Thank you! We like each other. Our dog is using the dog pack from Mountainsmith. It's cheaper than the ones from Ruffwear and we prefer it as it has more airflow. Our dog easily overheats. I think it was like $80?

      This arrogant guy won't say. So Many beautiful trails in this country, we'll marked, and, you find yourself alone. Sharing adventures is noble for Adventurers, not this showboat. And, no way he climbed 1600 feet in a mile there, so he's not good at math.

    I don't understand not sharing your location if you are going to post it to social media. If you want to keep it to yourself, keep it to yourself and don't post about it. Seems like the height of arrogance to me.

    • @sheila5707
      @sheila5707 2 года назад

      These types of videos are a great inspiration for us to find our own epic adventures, not to copy theirs. Plus, Eric usually tells us where he is, so if he chooses not to on this trip, then there is probably a reason...maybe even for safety if they plan on staying around that area for while.
