Breathtaking scenery, thank you. I saw more of the Alps in one hour than I've seen in my whole life. Cheers!🤠
Thank you Abbie! I thoroughly enjoy your travels, and appreciate your suggestions on packing.
So much information given freely by you helps people immensely. The weight of items these days are but 1/4 of what they used to be 40-50 years ago, it certainly is a time for travelling.....cheers Abbie. Great video. 👍🏼😊
Thank you very much for your videos, Abbie! I used them to prepare for my Via Alpina Switzerland hike a couple of years ago (managed to escape UK between two Covid lockdowns ))) ) and I'm watching them again in preparation for TMB this year. After hiking VA (end of August, I had all kinds of weather, from blisteringly hot through torrential rains and to snow) need to say that everyone is veeery different. I really didn't need that many warm clothes and in a couple of cases where I did, I used layers. Used hat and gloves only once and only because I did a touristic detour to Jungfraujoch. I was using packable rain jacket I had bought in Sports Direct, excellent for both rain and wind, weighs nothing, very compact. Hygiene was also very important to me ))) so I took merino wool underwear, socks, bras and thermals. Cost like a private jet but was worth every penny. I also used Sawyer mini filter and you can drink right from it (I screwed it on top of the plastic bottle). After hiking VA in trail running shoes (with 11 kg backpack) agree that might not have been the best idea. Trail runners definitely have advantages (when it's hot, when you go uphill, when you do day hike w/o backpack, no need to take another pair of shoes), but their disadvantages (during descents, especially on the trail full of stones sticking out of it, when crossing streams) slowed me down significantly (had to watch where I put my feet). Though still can't make myself commit to boots as they are very heavy. But judging from the videos of TMB trail, it's definitely for boots, not for trail runners (unless you're not carrying more than 3-5 kg on your back).
The great video thanks Abbie, watchable informative and entertaining. I feel inspired to attempt the TMB. Love your videos. Happy trails
I did the TMB a few years ago, part camping, part Rufuge and got my pack down to about 10kg. Next time I would just do Refuges and cut the pack down even further. I agree camping option is not easy and gave me unwanted stress!
TMB the movie cant wait ...........patiently waiting
A loose killer on the trek hunting the hikers and eating them when they kill them ?
Great energy, Abbie. Your excitement is infectious. I've done the TDM and it is amazing, going again this summer with a partner. I highly recommend the Knife Edge Tour du Mont Blanc guide book. Has actual maps, places where you can camp, stay, route planning itineraries, etc...Everything you need to know.
Ps. Mont Blanc is not the highest mountain in Europe. The highest are in Georgia/Russia I believe. Doesn't take away from it in anyway though, spectacular hike.
Abbie, when I hit the trail there are three things I must have.
1. Tissue
2. Tissue
3. Tissue
Everything else in my bag is frivolous luxury.
Looking forward to the TMB film.
Thank you Abbie for the very informative video. Great timing as my partner and I are hiking the TMB this summer.
Excellent vid. If you are planning to stay in refuges most insist that you have a sheet sleeping bag. My flight cover also doubled as a pack liner; killing two birds with one stone. A small sponge is a useful item for drying your tent in the morning. I managed to find gas canisters in an outdoor shop in Les Houches. In terms of guide books I cannot recommend the Knife Edge guide book too highly, it contains really clear 1:25,000 IGN mapping and the route descriptions seemed more accurate than those in the Cicerone guide.
Great videos, thanks! I'm looking forward to doing this route later this summer.
Can you tell me what the 1:50 map is? I'm trying to find it online. Thank you!
Lots of useful stuff Abbie thanks .
I'm still a boot user but have progressed somewhat from the old ammo models I bought in the local ex WD shop .
Love your vids Abbie and just go and do it attitude
Had one of those little Opinel knives as a pack tool for 15 years still going strong as is my ten year old Golite tent.
Happy trails mate
Hi Abbie, Off on TMB in June 23 and looking into anything we might need to know flying there from the UK so would appreciate any advice. Maybe it’s a good topic for a video. What you can/can’t travel with etc. loads of American videos on the subject, but struggling to find much that references international travel, particularly in Europe.
Hi Abbie, I'm so glad to have found your channel. It is super interesting to learn about the brands found in Europe. As I live in Canada, I only have access to Usa brands, but it's so nice to see what you have access to. Anyways, keep up the good work!
Cheers!
Hi Abbie, please can you give me a link to the Electrolyte drops? I cant find them in germany... Best regards, Andreas
Mooses.. hahaha made me snort my coffee
I love that you are plant based as much as possible.. and the carrying extra just in case someone else needs it would be something i would do too haha. I hope my pack weighs a lot less than that when i tramp the Cleveland Way later this year. Awesome movie... again.. thanks Abbie
I’m with you on the first aid kit, always carry enough for a small group in case I come across someone who needs help.
Agreed Paul .
Id get shot if I failed to take a quality first aid kit (and didn't know how to use it).
The wife was a nurse for 30 years and is still in the Red Cross after 45.
Another great video thanks for sharing
Morning Abbie 👍🏻
Did you take a mobile phone? I was wondering about using google map gps, or a gps app on a smart phone. Receiving , or making phone calls in emergency's
Hi Abbie, not strictly linked to you video but can pick your brains? I have a helium Ultralite tent with a silnylon fly and find sliding the pole into the sleeve very tight especially when wet.have you any recommendations as to making it easier? Eg WD40 or Silicone spray?? Thanks
Thanks, Abbie. I'm not sure where you filmed this, but I think Beast of Bodmin Moor ran behind you at 5:18. 😋🙂👍
Hi Abbie, I saw your full lenght movie about the TMB (and watching all your videos since) and decided immediately that I have to go and do that in the close future after the pandemic. What kind of sleeping bag do you recomend to bring for tenting (comfort/limit/extreme)? I found several packing listst, but mainly for sleeping in refuges and these mention only sb liners, which would be too cold for sleeping in a tent for sure. Thanks!
Do you remember which shop offered the gas canisters? Thank you for the informations, I'm planning to hike the TMB this summer. :)
would also love to know
Decathlon
By 'base weight' you mean everything except food&water?
Thanks for sharing. Can you please let me know where did you buy camping from? I'm planning on going to mont blanc trek. thanks again.
Are there enought camp sites?
Hi Abbie great vids on the TMB, to the point where I'm hoping to do the trek next year . Did you say you camped all the way ? If so was there any real chance of you getting caught by the rangers? As I love to camp but sleeping in a hut with others isn't my thing as I'm a light sleeper . Many thanks 😊. Sam.
Another great video Abbie. But please tell me you didn't wear the same Stay Wild T shirt everyday 🤣
Thanks Abby xx
Love your channel. What camera/s and lens set-up did you use on this trip? Thanks
Can i ask have you done the GR20 ?
Anyone know if she uses a GoPro to record, she gets such awesome video!
Thanks for the vid! I'm hiking the TMB this summer - would love to see a training guide, if you're still planning to release one. Cheers!
Thought of the new forest with its wetlands and lovely villages
Great Video. Do you share the gpx somewhere?
5:17 - Am I the only one noticing an animal running in the background? :)
Elbrus is europes highest top..Mont blanc is only on twelfht place
Nice videos 👍
At least the highest in Western Europe but certainly not Europe's highest..
I so expected that ruck to be full of rooks and possibly other corvids.
Our winter just doesn't want to get crisp 🥺
I believe strongly you can be UL and a realist
hmm,,well i dont care what ya smell like,,you give out a great video of what everyone should know about trails ect
So much stuff you take with you but I guess it's all essential for you sweetheart good job your young and fit x
13 kilograms ? I did the Cambrian Way with 22 kilos on my back 🤣 (yes I was an idiot back then)
you are the porter
@@carefree167 😁 a lot less these days
Anyone going to this trek on September 23 this year?? First Time for me
Looking to go in September this year if they lift the quarantine ban
theres an ambulance coming ???
Why did you pick a mans backpack?
I also use a men's pack. The torso is longer.
girl, never flash your pants ,,thats t.m.i... lol
I have rarely seen such an enormous amount of useless gear in a single backpack. You like for sure to suffer.
ciccio formaccio 15:40
you are rude
