How is it going?~mr, Super,you did amazing masterpiece, 🤚
Great video with so many information about hiking. Did not expect that. Thanks very much.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
excellent recommendation with a lot of experience congratulations
Glad you enjoyed it!
Why do you use a frameless pack instead of a framed pack? Looking at a frameless but need to find one to try before spending the money.
Good job on making your own food. I started that a couple years ago. Don't forget the chocolate coconut pudding for desert. Chocolate instant pudding, coconut milk powder, and chocolate wafer cookies. Another snack I use is Oats, peanut butter powder, chocolate chips, and some hemp hearts. Add water and it's a great high calorie food after 15-20 mile days.
I don't. Hyperlite has frames, but you can also take them out. Thanks for the tip!
Great information Dave. I do a similar style food pack for my offshore photography adventures which last about 4 days. I deleted the Cliff Bars as the high sugar content was making me crash an hour after consuming. I went with the RX Bars instead. They seem to do better for me. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks Daniel! For sure. High sugar can be really bad for certain types of activity. Depends on the activity. Zone 1 & 2 heart rate for long periods of time, no sugar is better. Zone 3 and above. Some sugar won't hurt. You're body is looking for sugar in those zones. This book talks all about it: amzn.to/3rXO7i4
@@DaveMorrow cool, I'll check the book out.
Hello Dave very good diet for your hikes you are well organized. Do you like Ginseng? I have used and I take ginseng in capsules form or tea. Ginseng has a lot of good boost to the energy level and it does a lot of good. Other than that you are well set. Obviously you carry a lot more between a tent tripod a lens or two and your camera. How do you charge your camera batteries? Via solar panels? Because in the wilderness there is no electricity right? Have a good one and keep safe. Cheers.
Thanks. I'll check it out. Just bring enough batteries for the trip. Solar is heavier than extra batteries.
Greeeat video! Very interesting and useful information. Anything you’d suggest to avoid, that maybe sounds like a good idea?
Thanks. Yes, tons in that guide I mentioned: www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist
Thanks for some good ideas! Need to remember the electrolytes. Have sometimes gotten bad headaches even though I’ve had a lot of water
For sure! Those are a huge help for sure.
Thanks for the info Dave...as always, great video. I've been using Daily Green Boost (similar in that it's barley grass) and was wondering if there's a big difference between that and the one you use. I'm not a big veggie eater so I use 2 Tablespoons / day. Thanks much, stay safe.
You're welcome. I don't really know the difference. Check the nutrient profile for both. That's the best bet.
Thanks alot Dave. Will try some of the tips in Karakoram Pakistan.
Nice! that place looks killer.
tnx really insightful and useful (esp. making available the pdf download with so much more info on the other aspects of backpacking)
Thanks so much for this helpful video !!
You're welcome!
Thx again for all these informations!
How do you manage water supply? Have you made a vdo already that I may have missed?
You're welcome. I talk about it in that guide I mentioned. here ya go: www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist
@@DaveMorrow Well thank you!
Regarding water, it’s heavy to pack but basically required for every step you take physically, and consuming a majority of the foods you shared. How do you plan and manage your water throughout the trip? If not packed initially, how do you ensure trustworthy water sources if you find throughout your journey? Boil it, filter it, does it depend on the length or location what you plan prior?
I’ve taken a short trip to Mount Rainier at sunrise and by the hike back I drank my camel back and was delirious near the lodge. I can only imagine hiking for 15+miles and running low on water being a critical element to your hikes. Thanks for the info and great video!
I agree. It's really heavy. I have a ton of info in my guide on technique. Here's my full guide: www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist In your case, it's very hard to go to elevation like that and perform well without training for it. I used to feel that exact same way as you describe. You can train your way out of it and feel great in the mountains 95% of the time, even after a week of big days. Here's the book I learned all about training from: amzn.to/3knOQVq Training is easier than you might think, it's all about consistency. Depends what your goals are really:)
@@DaveMorrow right on, thanks Dave!
Very efficient use of space and weight. I particularly like the breakfast and snacks for eating small quantities throughout the day.
I may have missed this; but where do store the fresh hamburger and fries? Just wondering.
Thanks for sharing this information, Dave... I always find your videos to be informative! A quick question... what precautions do you take to protect yourself and your food when you are hiking in bear country? Do you use something like a Bear Vault?
You're welcome. here ya go: www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist
Brilliant setup, thanks!
You're welcome!
Dave, very informative. I also appreciate the detailed list you have on your website. Question about the Hyperlite Porter 5400 you recommend. Do you find, at heavier weights, the pack to be uncomfortable over time due the the minimalist shoulder straps?
Thanks
I find it to be just as comfortable under all loading. Way more comfortable than all of the standard Osprey / Dueter / REI pack designs.
Good info. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! PS: This guide has a ton more info www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist
I hope that you have calcium in electrolytes pills bc Vitamin D needs calcium to be absorbed. Good video. tahnk you.
I'm sure he gets all the Vitamin D he needs from the sun ;-)
@@Hangs4Fun point taken, but why supplement then?
@@patrickguilfoyle8884 for calcium?
I think he uses a lot of powdered creme for some of his flavoring and a couple of the other food items have calcium in them. But not sure what level of calcium he is getting per day. So not sure if he really needs to supplement it. The main things to ensure you get plenty of is things that give you energy and help your body function at a high level for processing that energy and healing.
I'm sure he will chime in, if he doesn't get the levels of calcium he requires.
What level would you say he should be getting per day?
@@patrickguilfoyle8884 I may have misread your statement (I thought you said why supplement them (and not then).
The reason to supplement, is to help your perform at its best for the conditions he is in. He's going out for days to weeks at high elevation with weight on his back. To carry the food it would take to provide his body with what he needs to perform would be heavier and take up more volume. Supplements IMHO aren't as good as getting them from the food directly, but when you can't have them coming from your food supplements are the next best things, AND they generally take up less volume and weigh a lot less.
He has focused on energy, energy delivery, healing, etc in his food choices and supplements.
If he didn't prioritize what performance he wanted to maximize, then he would have a whol bunch of supplements he didn't really need and the extra cost, weight, and volume that goes with that. He does carry a few supplements he may never use, but knows through experience it is best to carry them in case needed (like zinc).
@@Hangs4Fun You responded that he gets enough Vit D from the sun, to which I respond more clearly now; if he gets enough vit. D from the sun as you stated, why supplement, was my question? I understand the nutritional value of Vit D.
Thanks for the great information. What type of hydration system do you use?
Anytime. Complete guide here, covers all my thoughts on hydrration.: www.davemorrowphotography.com/backpacking-checklist
Thanks for the video Dave! Very informative.
You bet!
Dave: I always enjoy your videos. Thank you for the time you put into those.
I have a question outside these videos - but do not know where else to post this - and it has to do with diffraction:
The "experts" say that diffraction can start as early as f8 or f11 on some full frame lens, and that it is also somewhat dependent on the pixel pitch of the sensor - small pixels being more prone to diffraction.
This has puzzled me somewhat. Diffraction of waves was obviously a component of my physics classes (many years ago) and I thought diffraction only occurred when the slit width (aperture) was rather close in dimension to the wavelength. Since the wavelength of light is in nanometers and the aperture in millimeters, that's several factors of ten different. As a (former) engineer can you please explain this? Also, the effect of pixel size?
Thanks!!
Doug
Hey Doug, Good question. Engineering analysis. It doesn't make a big enough difference to matter. Keep it simple! f/8-f/16 will all work great. Here's my focus guide: www.davemorrowphotography.com/back-button-focus
@@DaveMorrow I try to avoid f16 these days as I have demonstrated to myself that there is image degradation, so pretty much stick to f8 to f11 - unless I am after a specific effect, like sunstars.
@@dougstevens9973 f/16 is not optimal, but there are some worthwhile use cases. I shoot f/11 for 95% of my shots.
With your photo equipment and other gear, how much weight do you carry on a trip?
Depends on the trip. From 25-50 lbs. Season & trip length play a huge factor.
Great info Dave as always, thank you for all you share!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the video, Dave. I've really struggled with loss of appetite while backpacking. It might just be from exertion. I think AMS is also a possiblity, since I am spending most of my time at or above 12,000 feet. Dehydration could also play a role. It sounds like you would suggest less food, more often. Do you have any other ideas?
My guess: I used to feel like that too. Train for 30-50K mountain runs year-round and all that will go away. It's mostly a function of your body not being used to processing energy at high rates for prolonged periods of time, so you "bonk". Training for the Uphill Athlete book changed my life. Give it a read. Training for a 30K or 50K isn't actually that hard. It just takes time. It will make you an absolute monster in the mountains. No tiredness. Go everyday. Day after day. I know some 70 year olds that still run them:) Doing that has changed my energy levels and life performance more than any other single thing. It's also great for mindset and accomplishment of goals.
@@DaveMorrow Thanks! I'll check out that book, and hope my knees can handle it! :-)
@@creationimagesphotography The training cycle ensures proper knee strenth if done correctly. Mine never hurt anymore...
@@DaveMorrow any other book recommendations? This book is fantastic

How do you consume the greens powder? Do you mix two scoops into water and drink it or mix it into your meals? If you drink it, how's it taste? Thanks!
mix with water & drink it.
@@DaveMorrow I'll have to try that!
@@DaveMorrow I like the idea of using powder on longer trips, but not sure I could handle the taste if just mixed with water. Do you know if there is a pill form?
just take it as a shot. 2 oz of water and one gulp.
