Never have I seen a video showing a pack that is so well thought out and organized. Even your gear list is incredibly organized. Amazing...thanks and congrats!
Dang, I really miss the morning updates from the trail. I've watched a few other hikers making their attempt on the AT but so far they fall short of being as interesting and fun as you were to follow. 😀
Nice setup! We will share this over on the Hilltop Packs FB page
Awesome, thanks!
Awesome! OCD level organisation - just like I love :D This is a very good list, not trying to shed every gram - giving up on items and regretting it later, I salute you! :) Definitely going to check my list against yours later before my hike to make sure I have all I need.
A horse guide at the Grand Canyon. Never knew you had super powers. Cool!
I too have the WM Versalite. Best lightweight bag out there.
What a backdrop 😁great video thanks
Outstanding
Which start date was best for you …. Last years date of Feb 20 or this years date of March 11 ??
They were both about the same, weather-wise. I was surprised at how few women started in late February though. I only met about 3 on trail that first year!
Great job Lisa!!!! Loved it! The only thing I would add (I may have missed) is an extra shoe lace. Had one break once on the trail at the Grand Canyon and now always carry an extra. See you soon!!!!
Dear Lisa,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to reach out and let you know how much I enjoy watching your videos and following along with your adventures. Your passion for the outdoors is truly inspiring, and I love the positive message you share with your audience.
I am reaching out because I would love to interview you on my RUclips channel, Jorditoms. As a fellow hiker and outdoor enthusiast, I am preparing to tackle the GR11 this summer, and I think our shared love for the mountains and the outdoors would make for a great conversation.
I am currently doing a series of live interviews with people like yourself who have a positive message and a passion for adventure. I think my audience in Spain would be thrilled to get to know you and learn more about your experiences.
Please let me know if this is something that would interest you. I would love to discuss the possibility of scheduling an interview and sharing your story with my audience.
Thank you for your time and for the inspiration you provide to others.
Best regards,
I love the videos. I hope to follow your example of great videos when I do my own thru hike in a few years. Please make a step by step video on how you make the videos while on trail. What program or app do you use to make the thumbnails and splice the video and sound together? Is the program or app that you use for an Android or Apple phone? Thanks, Darryl
I will try to get a video out about that soon. I used an iPhone and edited video with the Luma Fusion app, but iMovie would work fine also. I used the Adobe Spark app to create the thumbnails, which has since been renamed to Adobe Express.
@Lisa P Hikes Thank you. What recording settings did you use? 1080p x 25 frames per second? 4k? Thanks
Lovely video. Really enjoyed watching and subbed you. Atb Steve 👍
Are you doing the AT in 2022??
No, I thru hiked the AT this year, in 2021.
Just casual video right next to the Grand Canyon. What the hell man. lol Everyone is like "Well this is so not fair". xD
any name reccomendations for a black granite gear crown2 60? he squeaks sometimes and it sounds like a man talking
😆😆😆 Tin man??
Fabulous video, thanks for sharing
Bought a 1k$ tent , carrys 4 types of lotion lol. Like the setup. Look forward to watching
I had watched your cold camping video and thought a mummy bag is nicer in cold weather, saw you got a WM bag, expensive, but top of the line. An experiment to try on a cold night at home, take an empty bread bag, take off shoe and sock, put empty bread bag over bare foot, then sock and shoe. Go stand outside with winter coat and see which foot feels warmer. Years ago I backpacked a portion of the AT in snow wearing sneakers that stayed wet all day. Ok while I hiked, but when I stoped to set tent and cook supper I got cold. Got into sleeping bag cold. Finally I took an unused garbage bag, cut hole for head and arms, took off long Johns, placed garbage bag over bare skin with head and arms thru holes I had made. Placed long Johns back on, slept like a baby, very warm. In the morning I easily crawled out of sleeping bag, NOT feeling the usual cold jolt in morning. Ate breakfast, took tent down and repacked, as I hiked on, had to remove garbage bag, was over heating. A double wall tent with no screen or screens covered adds warmth in winter. I have a Big Agnes Slater 1.5 person tent that is warmer in winter because the screen door has a zippered nylon cover and a smaller screen at foot of tent. I can feel the difference when I go outside the tent. I may try to cover the foot screen in winter. 4 season tents typically have zippered covers over the screens and usually a pole structure that handles snow and wind better. I wonder if a bivy sack beats out a 3 season tent in winter.
Thanks Lisa! Great seeing you again. 🦋❤
Great information Lisa! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your gear list. Really enjoyed watching your journey, hope to see another hiking journey in the future. I have a question for you, you might think it's weird, lol. Would you consider selling any of your gear? You can email me if you decide to sell any of your gear. My email can be found on my about page of my RUclips Channel. Thanks Lisa and take care!
I too miss those early morning updates. You have great detail in your organization. I like that you called out the Dachstein mitts. My go to cold weather hand protectors. I’m going to try the O’Keefe skin care products. My outer covering has suffered over the years. I hope you’re having a lovely fall at the GC. I’m looking forward to the next installment.🦋
And while I’ve throughly enjoyed your presentations, my ulterior motive is to infect you with a love of the absolute corniest old western songs. So to start you out...

awesome review! thanks Lisa (TEX)
Thank you so much for this. It's really helpful for me to see a woman's gear list, especially for clothing. I run on the cold side too, so this was extra helpful.
Thank you so much for sharing your pack, your innovations, and your rationales for how/why something worked or didn't work for. This gives me some great food for thought as I pack my bag for 2022
Damm that’s a lot of zipper lock bags
Thanks for sharing! Wondering if you have a link for the cap/straw attachment for the smart bottle? Looks like a cool hack!
Yes, please!
Sure! It’s currently sold out on Amazon, but maybe you can find it elsewhere online.

What was your pack weight?
Very thorough. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing with us.
How deep were the water crossings
Tex, you're amazing, with a capital "A".
"Prophet"
Propheeeet! How are you??? Did you ever get back on trail?
How can I stay in touch with you?
Interesting to see you went stoveless. I'm seeing allot more people do that on trail. How much weight did you lose? If I might ask.
Thoroughly enjoyed your video
If you mean how much lighter it was not carrying a stove, it evens out. Those with a stove carry lighter, dehydrated food, whereas my food is comparatively heavier. If you mean me as a person, I didn’t have any extra weight to lose. I actually gained a few pounds. 😆
@@lisaphikes hahaha yes I meant you 😊
Too Tall, thanks for asking that question. I'm not man hating when I say a man - whether he needs to lose weight or not - loses 10 pounds as soon as he says, "Hiking," but women don't seem to lose much weight - even if the need to - on the trail. (Unless, of course, they're trying to do the trail in under 100 days. Then they seem to get skeletal.)
Why didn't you mention those sock liners? They were your ticket to ride. Who made your liners? Also I've read you can buy an anti-wind muffler for your microphone for about 12 dollars.
The sock liners did the trick while I healed. I prefer to not use liners if I don’t have to though. But they were nylon ankle socks from Amazon (link below).
Yeah, I didn’t bring my lavalier mic to the canyon. Hope the wind wasn’t totally awful to listen through.

So well done and helpful. TY
Why get the zip version if your using a pack liner? You can't use the zip function that way.
You said your stuff got wet, I'm curious how easy it was for the pack to wet out?
Understood. I originally bought the zip version hoping that I wouldn’t have to use a liner. I was soon proven wrong on that front. If you pack properly, that zipper isn’t needed though. I do still enjoy the outer zippered compartment though.
It rains so much on the AT that it wouldn’t take too long for stuff to get damp. You want to avoid that at all costs, so I quickly added the liner in my shake down hikes.
Great gear review Tex. I have the arczip as well but in blue. I'll have to come up with name for mine for my 2022 thru hike which I am also vlogging. Hint hint please follow along. You had some great ideas and gear which I might try to incorporate. And yes the Grand Canyon is a great place. Havasu Falls is on my bucket list!!!
Great material.
Thanks for this, check chicken tramper for a water bottle holder.
You did it !!!!!
great video
Ty for post
You are a pro
Was is the Average weight of your pack?
I was at 20 lbs base weight with my winter gear for the start of my hike, probably about 2-3 lbs lighter with summer gear.
Thank you very much for sharing the pack review.
Your kind!
Congrats!
Now I need to get out to the G C
Pete
She holds up a business card; "a very small cutting board" 😆 for what?? perhaps a couple meal worms the occasional cricket!! Lolol just kidding 😂 couldn't help myself at that!!😁✌💚
Really neat waterbottle setup btw!!(=
Summer sausage! Come on!
Ty!
@@lisaphikes to funny I literally thought that lol very cool stay strong&healthy safe&happy!!(=
Nice to see you and your gear list! enjoyed , thanks
Thank you so much! Excellent video, well done! Lots of great ideas for being well organized.
👍
👋
Thank you for the video. I was especially intrigued by your makeshift tripod. That seems very useful!
Awesome review Tex! Thank you for sharing!! 🥾🥾⛺️
Omgosh love seeing you. Awesome
You are stunningly logical in your approach to being prepared. There is a lot to learn from your experience. I have never been around anyone so prepared, even after hiking thousands of miles in Arkansas, Tennessee, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.
I admire you, but you would drive me crazy. But, congratulations grunting out your Appalachian thru hike. Well done, Lisa P.
Oh, stay late at Dripping Springs above the Cottonwood Campground, the desert bighorns come out to drink while you listen to the ringtail cats screaming all around you...Grand Canyon magic!
I used to carry wet wipes as well. But I found those lil compressed towels and soap sheets. I pack them together in lil tiny zip locks for daily pill doses. Weighs virtually nothing and only requires a bit of water from your bottle
By any chance did you try the non-pro Ultraventures before you decided on the Pro ones? I used the non-pro for a long time and just recently upgraded to the Tereventure 3. Also... any idea how much all of your ziplock bags weighed combined (just the bags)?
I did not try the non-pro version, so I can’t compare. I like the idea that the pro version has a rock plate though.
I know, I have a ton of ziploc bags, right??!? They probably weigh a few ounces all together. Worth it for my sanity in staying Uber organized.
So I was on the treadmill earlier this morning and I thought to myself I wonder what Tex is up to? I haven't seen any videos from her lately. I get home open up RUclips and here you are!
😆😆👋👋👋
Awesome ! Always enjoy your videos !
Great video.
Very organized and practical.
I also appreciated your positive videos while out hiking
thx
Da Breeze
Thanks Tex, It was very helpful. My pack is still to heavy! Tring to switch from bush craft camper to hiker. LOL
Thanks for the info it was actually helpful. Guess I'm going to have to name my backpack now 🙃
Great gear video, loved the hat hack with the button-on bandana.
I'm really glad I found this video. We both organize and pack much the same, even carrying many similar pieces of gear. I've had the advantage of using and upgrading gear over 12 years of section hiking, but there's always something to learn. Thanks!
Wow, great video and very detailed. I have been more than a casual backpacker for over fifty years and you demonstrated Stratton was
This is the first time I have seen someone add a string to their bathroom bag- GENIUS! Definitely going to make this adjustment before my spring hike. Great video!
Nice run down of the gear - thank you for the adventure & the follow up!
Really glad to see you again, snd what a beautiful backdrop!
Your post trail gear review was so helpful and very thorough! Thanks for sharing and happy to know you are doing well 😀
Thanks for the review! And it was REALLY good to see and hear you again! You still have that amazing smile and perky spirit that showed through in every one of your thru-hike videos ... especially when the feet problems slowed you down.
Great gear list. New follower here. Well done. Crow✌️
So about a 19 lb base weight?
Winter was around 19 lbs. Summer base weight was 15-16.
A comprehensive gear list. You also gave some great insights into how things really work on trail. I have an orange Zip as well and enjoy the ease of access. I use individual dry bags for extra water protection but we don't get the heavy. sustained rains in my area.
Glad to see you’re back. Great info. Thx.
Thanks Tex. Im gonna institute that strap to my privy bag. Great idea!
Good to hear from you Thanks for the gear up date
Hey Lisa! Good to see you and thank you for sharing all your gear. I always learn so many little jewels from you🤩 beautiful background! Take care n stay safe 😎🌺👏🏻TX👍🏻
Greetings from Western Canada 🇨🇦! Excellent overview, well done! Congrats on your amazing accomplishments! A true nail biter towards the end of your hike concerning your foot issues and the time squeeze regarding your new job start! May the good LORD continue to keep and protect you! Lamplighter 2021 on the side! 👍😎
My pack is called Wilma as in the flinstones! No drama and straight to the point!
Good to see you once again, thanks for the information, Happy Holidays!
Wow, very thorough and methodical overview.
Thanks for sharing.
Great to see you Tex in such a beautiful setting! Thank you for sharing such an informative video. There were so many wonderful ideas and items I didn’t even know about. Your knowledge and expertise are much appreciated! Enjoy your adventures in the Grand Canyon! 💕
Great video. I have the Zpacks water bottle sleeve and love it. it is worth the $25.
those topo's gave me a ton of foot pain on the tendons on the tops of my feet. but when i went back into the store to try and return them, a different employee than the guy who fitted me who had been there as long as the store had been open helped me and i learned i was sold shoes 2 sizes too large! went with something different to minimize the chance of the pain happening again. still nervous to give the shoes a second chance even though i loved everything about them. especially the color. my timp 3's are hideous
I was just thinking last night how much I missed your videos and BAM! here is another video! So good to see you in your natural habitat and one of my favorite high school hangouts! Great video!
😆😆👋👋👋
That was a very helpful review Lisa. Thanks for posting. And that backdrop wasn't too shabby either! Really enjoyed coming along on this adventure with you. You inspired a lot of people my friend. Hope to see you at the canyon someday soon. We will be sure to say hi! All the best from Canada.
Great gear loadout! thanks a for sharing
I love your feminine hygiene product tip with dog waste bags! I'll be hiking with my dog so it really does make perfect sense! Thank you for the great information, I'm very excited to head out.
Great to see another hiker with a face bug net! I always use one after snorting a knat that remained lodged in my nose for 3 days.
That sounds awful and unfortunate!
Hi from New Hampshire. The foliage was great this year,(probably due to all the rain we got.) Awesome gear review. I use the Chicken Tramper bottle holder on my pack I've had no problems and happy with them. I bought both sizes😊.I couldn't make up my mind on which one.Anyway good quality. How are your feet doing? At the end of your hike there were issues. Hope all is good.🌲👍
The feet are fully healed and doing just fine. What a weird injury. Thanks for asking
Thanks, great to see you back🙂🙏
Great review. Thanks for sharing
Good morning! Nice surprise to see your video. I would love to see any videos made around the Grand Canyon. Such a beautiful place!
Coming up next! 😁
Fishbone anchors and iwalk charger are going in my pack. I didn’t know they existed! Thanks Tex! Very informative pack shakedown. I did watch last years post hike shakedown and it was interesting comparing the items taken on each hike.
Are you back your guiding on the Grand Canyon? I thought I saw you in someone's video of their rim to rim hike. They asked you about the mules. Nice to see you again.
Oh yeah??? Could be, as I am back here!
Hi Tex. I just wanted to say thank you for your very awesome and informative videos throughout the AT. I watched your entire series and also created a custom playlist so that I could watch them in order. I learn quite a lot from you and I’m planning my own through hike of the AT for 2023. You created much inspiration in me and you positive attitude is very uplifting. Thanks again.
Awwww thank you!! I’m glad you liked them. And what an exciting time for you, being in the planning/dreaming stages. Enjoy it!!
Good to see you again. I really miss your AT videos. Your smile and cheerful personality brightens my day. Please do a Grand Canyon mule ride video soon ! Thanks
Coming right up! I’m editing it now. 😁😁🐴🤠
Wilson! Good to see ya, bro! This video may mess with my head a bit because the last one I saw you had just crossed into New Jersey. But I'm with you til the end.
Spoiler alert! I finished. 😆😆
Hi Tex, I miss enjoying your vlogs during my lunchtime. I hope you don't miss the trail too much!! How are your feet doing and what's up next for you? Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 and Happy Trails, wherever they may lead you! 😃
Hi! My feet are totally healed and perfectly fine. What a weird issue that was. I’ll work at the canyon here a while and maybe RV tour some National parks next. Then… who knows???
It's the elusive hiker Tex in her natural habitat! This video made my day. It's great to see you again. Thanks for the pack breakdown.
😊😊😊
Thank you for your gear run down. I have to ask, do you think your foot troubles were due to the Topo shoes you used?
Not at all. It was definitely a chemical reaction to the Leukotape.
Really nice job! I'm going to show this to my scouts this spring when its time to start getting ready for backpacking again!
Awwwww! Thanks Jason! ❤️🏕
