    Clearly your experience shows - you are well set for the AT. Have a GREAT hike!
    Another organizational benefit of stuff sacks is to manage the 'pack explosion' in your tent. I have very little floor space in my 1P tent - I put gear I want to access at night in a sack - where I can find it.
    The sip tube should work well - just remember to clean it regularly.

    Just recently discovered your channel and love your approach. I might have to go back and binge your previous hikes! Can’t wait to follow your AT hike. BTW, love your paper map approach.

    Hi, your experience demonstrates your readiness for the AT. Stuff sacks help manage the 'pack explosion' in tents, ensuring gear is easily accessible at night. Thank you for sharing😍✨

    Great video and I too just found your channel but looking forward to catching up. It’s nice to see another hiking shirt person 😊 Love too your paper map approach, it’ll never run out of batteries 😂 And I love the tactile feel and just look of a good ol’ map.❤️ Bear hang carabiner, I found a great tip on YT to use a locking one as sometimes the wind can twist your line and “pop” the non-locking type & your bag is then stuck. Your experience really shines through 👍

    Sounds like know what you’re doing. I’m excited to watch. Will you be showing us your food etc? Do the paper maps show nearby hostels? They can fill up fast if you get into a bubble. Plan ahead a bit if you use them. Thanks for sharing your experience. You’re going to love the AT!

    Nice video. I wanted to suggest you might want to use zingit vs paracord. It is much lighter weight, less bulky, very strong and great to use for hanging your bear bag.

  • @jakeva9802

    Looks like a solid kit. Will you show what will typically be in your food bag?

      If you click the gear list link in the description box, you can see all the gear with the base weight totaled at the bottom.

    How much does you bag weight in total at the end?
    Also what kind of food will you be bringing along? :)
    Cant wait to follow your thru trip of the AT!

    I just truly love maps - and love that you are trying to rely mostly on them this time (but backup is always smart just in case , and you’ve got it).
    Wish you the best in your journey :)

    Nice set up. Wish you a happy hike! What's your thoughts on bear protection? You don't bring any bear spray?

    • @jenbrownhikes
      @jenbrownhikes  9 месяцев назад +4

      Thank you! No Grizzlies so no bear spray. Black bears will typically run away if you yell and stand your ground 🐻

      @pikeshike 9 месяцев назад +2

      @@jenbrownhikes Ok, if you say so ... Here in Norway we usually keep the food in the tent. We have some brown bears here, but they are extremely shy and I have never seen one. Never heard of any raiding of tents

    Does your Sotos windscreen stove fit inside your 750 toaks with the fuel and lighter ok? I also have a jetboil stabilizer inside of mine and wanted to upgrade my stove from the BRS but idk if i have room for all since the windscreen part is so wide. Love your use of the pocket guides i hate being a phone zombie, gonna start printing mini maps now

    • @jenbrownhikes
      @jenbrownhikes  8 месяцев назад

    Are you going to use your phone or just maps?

    Holy cow, that’s a super heavy gauge of cordage you have for the bear hang. You could save a few ounces easily by going 330 paracord or less, and limiting yourself to 35 feet.

    Do you bring wet wipes to clean your face and body at the end of the day, or just use water and your towel?
    Thanks for sharing your gear.
