2024 BACKPACKING GEAR GUIDE IS NOW LIVE! ruclips.net/video/reIF9Ri64Ss/видео.htmlsi=0eIm4VciTXjLwYHD
First time watcher. You guys seem really genuine about what you use and what’s actually practical. I definitely want to do more backpacking adventures and it’s just nice to hear, “Yeah we got this off brand…” or “We bought this off Amazon.” Some times this space in relation to gear can be intimidating. Feeling under prepared because you don’t have the latest greatest stuff.
Hey! Glad you’re enjoying the videos. There definitely can be a little bit of elitist mentality when it comes to gear. We tend to take the side of “if it works it works”. Don’t let the gear keep you from getting out there 🥰
I understand your reasoning for no bandaids or ointment I guess….but nasty scrapes or deep cuts are not joke when they get infected. Alcohol wipes, ointment, and bandaids/gauze should be a must.
dude the grade on this video is FIREEE
Haha some of that old Cine4 footage was tough to grade 😅😅
@@codyandvictoriaare you sitting in log now? It really does look super good.
@@Imxeimxeyea log!
I'd recommend a pair of nitrile gloves for the first aid kit, this way it can remain somewhat cleaner if you are putting pressure on a wound, and at least 4 tbsp of hydrogen peroxide. God forbid your dog ingests a toxic mushroom or something by accident you will need to induce vomiting sooner rather than later to ensure their survival. (I'd ask you vet for advice on it for your dog specifically) its not that heavy and can and will save your dogs life.
Oh! Hydrogen Peroxide is a great idea. In keeping with my maxim that everything carried should have multiple uses, in addition to inducing vomiting for a dog and first aid, HP is good for dental care (rinse/gargle with a capful), is a decent cleaner, organic, and environmentally permissable!
Cheers! (I'm going to put a bit in my kit right now! For the weight and volume, it seems like an excellent choice.)
Make sure they’re tan/white gloves not black! It’s hard to see blood bile and other fluids on black gloves
Love the in depth video! Still has that Cody & Victoria flare to it 📸 would love to see some videos going into more depth on how you guys plan your backcountry trips. Route selection, securing permits, etc.
Definitely something we plan on doing!
For your aid kit, I'd throw in a CAT tourniquet (and get trained on it). Pretty compact/light and bleeding out is one of the most common preventable deaths. Awesome content, and thanks for the video. ✌️
I second this comment with 100% I have 2 in my bag, 2 is 1 and 1 is none with tourniquets. First rule if bleeding doesn't stop with one is immediately apply a second one. Just a rule of thumb from someone who spent years around chainsaws.
Definitely add the Advil to your AID pack. If not allergic it will help with inflammation if you have a sprain or fracture. Thank you for this video. Reminds me to pack less. Less is more! 🥾🥾
Awesome first gear video guys 👏🏻. Really cool to see the breakdown of everything you guys use and how minimal it actually is. I carry so much water lol, but am looking forward to using my Sawyer straw. Love the way you guys filmed everything too actually outdoors
Totally love, your adventure videos! Can’t wait! You guys are awesome!
I agree, these gears are a must!
Extremely helpful and informative video! Thanks for sharing.
Always here for y'all's adventures!
This is an epic, fun and well put together/filmed video!! Thanks for filming your adventures and sharing with us!! 😁
Thanks for watching!
The only thing I can ask for is more videos from you guys 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Sooooo stoked you guys did a gear video. Thanks!
Loved hearing about your gear and why you love it! Gear is so intimidating when you're just getting started!
Loved the video! Took a lot away from it and making me rethink what I need to pack. Appreciate it
Love you guys. Thanks for this wonderful video.
Thanks guys, finally something straight from backpack and no promotions as I could see in every other video! Really helpful, glad I could find this!
Awesome. Thanks!
What an awesome team! 👫🦮
Thank you for sharing 🙏☀️
Every video you 2 do is done so well! Amazing quality and great information. Really appreciate you sharing
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you every much, the video is such so detailed. And the way you guys filmed is awesome.
Nice work you two! Looking forward to getting out there with you both!
Also... nice stickers! ☺
Amazing video as usual guys! Keep it up
I really love this video! Big thanks, I learned a lot🎉
👏 bravo bravo bravo!! Guys please do a video reviewing dehydrate meals and food ideas for backcountry camping. Some of us never tried any dehydrated meals and still bringing the whole kitchen
Great stuff! I've been watching ultralight guys on yt for quite some time even though I never plan on being an ul hiker so its nice to see what "normal" people take with them. Thanks for the gear breakdown!
I like how you guys are so chill and relaxing about backpacking. Not taking it too seriously like the majority of youtube hikers do. Good luck on your adventures! :)
Thank you so much for all these tips! Amazing content!
22:03 any synthetic clothes will hold the smell very good in couple of hours. The only way to keep the smell off away is using ONLY WOOL tops and wool socks , the organic materials are the best. Yes ,they are expensive but there is a reason for that , what you pay is what you get ❤️
Thank you. Love your philosophy of gear....
That philosophy is always changing but we’ve got it pretty set now!
I just start my new hobby camping and this Video will help me a tons. Thank you guys,
Was definitely curious to see what was going to be next after the last video! Always interesting to see what someones kit looks like haha, and I will definitely be updating my AID kit, so thanks for the recommendations!
Gear has come a long way since my BP days in the 70s. Look forward to your trips😊
Me too, my friend. My only cringe moment was over the paper maps, which are way more of a joy to look over than that cursed screen.
A quick note on water. Surviving 3 days without water is a bit misleading. It’s often used as a guide, but in reality, after 24 hrs, you’ll be in a world of hurt. Another 24 hrs and you’ll be useless sitting under a shade tree unable to function and waiting to die on your 3rd day. That’s been my training and experience after attending a few intense survival schools. Love your vids!
Great video! We’ve used the Big Agnes ultralight Flycreek tent for many years and it’s never torn! We love their insulated sleeping pads too.
I keep Benadryl in my first aid kit because we’ve backpacked a lot with our kids and I have always been worried about bee stings or something crazy like that. Never used it, of course. Also, the tape is literally the best thing! Repair tears, make bandages. One time we tore the sleeves off our t-shirts to tape up dog socks for our poor dog’s feet. We also brought painkiller for our dog for longer trips, just in case. Happy hiking 🥾
Great video!!
This is a visual masterpiece.
Haha that is crazy talk but thanks a ton! You’ll probably enjoy some of the other videos. Maybe I can recommend our Grand Tetons video 🙃
Watching from Philippines keep safe guys love ur videos
Hey guys just wanna say that this video is very much appreciated
thanks 4 the Data !
Nice first aid kit, very similar to the one I've created for myself, with items for emergencies other than injuries. One reccomendation is to only carry one filter, and instead pack your first aid kit with water purification tablets. They weigh almost nothing and purify water in a pinch better than a filter.
Thank you very much, the video is such so detailed. Actually all of your videos are detailed. Expect more.
New video is out on the same topic!
NEW SUBSCRIBER-Great job!!! Loved this video 🙌
Great Time ,nice video ....
Fishing in the back country lakes is on of my favorite things to do while backpacking. I don’t ever see any one make videos on fishing gear. Would love to see what people take with them. I always have good fishing with salmon eggs and rooster tails.
Love it
NEW SUBSCRIBER-Great job!!! Loved this video
Great gear loadout!!! Have fun on your trips! (but... the Sawyer mini filter is terribly slow!!! You should switch to the squeeze or the platypus quickdraw or even the katadyn befree) you'll be amazed by how better they are.
Good video. My only change I recommend is replace your plastic water bottle for a single wall stainless steel for following reasons: they don’t break when you drop it, it is more resistant to bacteria and key, you can boil water in it in case of emergency 🤣 big change from van life back to backpacking
Nice!!! Thks much!
❤️❤️
Another sweet/budget friendly sleeping bag @ 20 degrees F is the Teton Sports Trailhead. $55 and comfortable.
First time seeing yall, good vid. Even greater dog, love my heelers!
That new Flextail Zero pump sure looks sweet 😉👍 Thanks for the vid
Thanks for sharing - we're just getting back into backcountry camping and oh boy, has the gear ever changed (lighter, more compact). Also, thanks for not trying to sell us anything! Great tips on the Aid kit, much appreciated.
Thanks for watching! The technical gear is sure different. I like a nice balance between light and functional. Some people go crazy counting oz and lbs. that’s not for us 😅
For your emergency lighter. They make cases but I'm cheap so I wrap a hair tie or rubber band around it under the button so it can't be pressed while in your pack. & Put a couple wraps of electrical tape or duct tape for patches or bush bandaids.
This is a bloody great video
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼🙌🏼
This is nice! Well planned the aid kit, I agree, bandaids are the last thing I’ll need if I’m in serious problems.
Loved the simple camera gear! I usually travel with tons of cables and camera stuff, I’m getting rid of it.
Hope to find some shoes as adaptable as yours, I hate the boots for long periods of time but don’t wanna go outside with just regular nike tennis iugh.
I agree with leaving this list, and the ten essentials, and more...
Question: I'm a big fan of carrying multiple-use items... What do YOU carry that is kinda unconventional?
Here are some examples of what I like to have to hand while backpacking:
-Plenty of tape. Lots of tape... Duck and electrical, kept wound around a trekking pole, a lighter, a pack strap, etc; useful for... everything, from repairs to first aid, as firestarter, even cordage.
-A decent size candle, for light, and the wax for waterproofing seams or paper (maps), boots, etc, for lubrication, fire starter, adhesive...
-151+ proof rum (or everclear- a small (airline) bottle) for fire, sterilization, as a solvent and for cleaning... drinking?
-Sandpaper (card-size pieces in 80, 220, and 600 grit wet/dry: great for sharpening, smoothing, making tinder, personal grooming, etc)
-Nitrile gloves and a condom (unlubricated, for use as a container, and for waterproofing/covering/sealing things, as PPE for poisons, plants, chemicals, blood, etc (and, well, you never know... better to have one and not need it, than need one and not have it!)
-Fishing line (12+lb test) as cordage, as thread for sewing, even for sutures; and it's meltable as an adhesive/seal, etc
All of the foregoing and more will fit in an altoids tin. (those aren't nearly all that I carry, just some of my favorites)... What are some of yours?
-Aaand... a pair of wooden chopsticks. (think about it! So useful!)
I loved this perfectly composed video. And also I like your voices.It's like podcaster voices.
It is so cute you brought your dog 😊😊😊😊
Everywhere (that she’s allowed) !
Very nice good luck
Fire video!!! And amazing gear! Wish we could camp sometime!
Really enjoy your video sharing, very practical! (Vicky)
Nice vids! Would of love to see a fast step-by-step of how you pact all the gear in the bags!
I second this! 38 liter backpack sounds rather small. I’m curious how you fit all the stuff in there.
Honestly, I may never backpack but if I do, I will refer to this video!
Very chill and informative 👍
You should backpack… 😬
Excellent video. One note - an military-style signal mirror is much better than most, as it can be aimed at an incoming rescue helicopter (for instance); I've used one extensively at work for such purposes. Cheers.
Thanks to the algorithm for sending me your way. New Subscriber!
Oh man! Thanks to the algorithm! (Haven’t said that in a lonnnggg time…) glad you’re here :)
great video. thats about it.
Grear video 👍
Love your video, super helpful! Althought, you missed one important part - food for your dog ;) Being a dog owner as well I would be curious to hear what kind of food do you cary for your dog(dry, wet). Is there any tips and tricks etc.
0:35 & 8:10 where are these beautiful places?!?!
Also your videos are so well made. The shots, the editing, fonts, music, etc. all good stuff. impressive
I like your vibe ✨
Another awesome video! Did I miss the video where you went to Banner Peak/Thousand Island Lake? Love the b-roll! One of my all time favorite trips was Reds Meadow to Thousand Island Lake!
In regards to the cotton ball/petroleum jelly firestarter, fluff out the cotton ball first, it'll catch better. Might not be a big deal if you are using a lighter, but if using a ferro rod or spent lighter (sparks only), it'll make a huge difference.
Nice guide, thanks. I would really be interested in something similar for climbing gear, like basic kit for 2 people to enjoy an afternoon of light climbing. It seemed like you had that equipment dialed in as well.
Great video, not sure if someone mentioned it, do not inflate your sleeping mats with mouth due to the moisture. Use inflate bags, they are lightweight or inflate pump
The dog is the real star.
Grab the flextail gear tiny pump x for 3oz makes life so much better
Just discovered you guys, awesome content, definitely will be following ! Stay safe, cheers
Thanks for being here! 🙏🏼
Prior to this updated gear video, I've always been like my god, Cody's and Victoria's backpacks are huge!!!
I just didn't want to be that guy, like, "Hey, you should really get lighter stuff and get this, this, this instead", lol.
Glad that you guys did! Weight is everything, in my humble opinion. Just makes the hike so much more enjoyable.
Nice to see your faces in your natural habitat!
Cheers!
Yeah you know we've always tried not to care about the gear at all because it shouldn't be the reason someone doesn't go out. But now that we're climbing and what not it makes sense to pack a bit lighter. I just always remember the total badasses from the past who did these trips with HUGE bags and shitty gear and it keeps me humbled when I start thinking my gear is heavy haha
Great video, I’d recommend getting the Sawyer squeeze or platypus hydro flow instead of the mini, the flow rate is so much better. Also a CNOC Vecto bag is much easier to fill than that platypus bag.
*Googling…* lol
Love my Platypus! Agree on flow rate. I have the GravityWorks one.
Thanks
Thank you!! 🙏🏼
12:35 y’all are so privileged to have lots of water in the backcountry 😊
Ha that we are!
If you are trying to save a couple ozs I'd find a way to ditch some of those sacks. I keep my clothes and sleeping bag in a sea to summit evack sack. I use my stuff sack as a pillow. The only stuff sack I keep is for the tent poles. Everything else gets rolled up and shoved in my pack. Also alpine starts are pretty good for your coffee needs. Platypus makes a nice 1 liter water sack. Stores nicely when empty in your climbing pack. Looking forward to seeing your alpine adventures.
when I went to jungle school in the army they showed us if you cut open an unbroken Chem light and pour the contents on a cotton ball the flame lasts 3x longer than Vaseline
Great video. To be fair gear is never truly dialed IMO. Always evolving and changing based on taste, comfort, needs, ect. Thanks for sharing!
Tru
Don't worry about the Tiger Wall. It does not rip at all and it can handle a lot.
I have mine for 3 years now, always have a dog with me and that thing still looks like new.
my dog's nails ripped the upper mesh , i have a tenac tape on it rn. speak for urself
@@solukhumbu911 what's your dog doing with his nails on the upper mesh 🤔
@@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl by upper i meant just above the nylon material of the tent walls , which isnt that high. dogs at low light cant see the mesh and think its open air and my dog particularly was "air-biting" flies and mosquitos in the tent when it happened😂
Great video!
I have almost the same tent(Copper spur) but in a beautiful red/orange color. I think you could maybe use the same fly on the Fly Creek tent as they are very very similar.
Good to know! Maybe we can swap it / sell it and look into this
For the bear can, I use the bare boxer which is smaller but rated the same and much easier to fit in a 38L pack. It's 1.6lbs, Diameter: 7.6in Length: 8in. I use a older model 36L Osprey Stratos and the bare boxer will fit inside the pack and under the brain.
The color of the tent is a good reason to carry a road flare orange emergency poncho.
good vid guys.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Beautiful views and camerawork here! Always open to suggestions to higher quality water filters. My favorite item to take with me is my HomeFi hotspot, it's been so helpful and can fit in my pocket.
Hey hey! So... Sad news... Something like 76% of people who watch our videos are NOT subscribed 😢 Do us a huge favor and click that subscribe button if you enjoy this video! It really helps us out! 🙏🏼
Forget gear for a second the views in your intro are sweet!
Great videos!!! What would your go-to rain gear set up be when needed. Thanks. Keep up the great videos
gortex rain jacket and waterproof/resistant shoes. Definitely a rain cover (or heavy duty trash bag) for your backpack. Extra pair of pants in case they get soaked. Make sure your tent is waterproofed and sealed too. If it’s been a long time it may need to be re-waterproofed
Definitely add the Advil to your AID pack. If not allergic it will help with inflammation if you have a sprain or fracture. Thank you for this video. Reminds me to pack less. Less is more!
more people that are team sun hoodie, love to see it
