Great gear choices, the small details add up to make it what meets your needs

Tayson, Thanks for sharing what you bring on a trip like this. Is there any plans to make a bigger version of the CS40?

[glazierd]

Thanks Tayson. Appreciate the info on the gloves you brought. What do you think your base weight was with all you brought.

Great load out. Thank you for sharing. Im curious about your choice in water filter. What made you choose the quick draw over katadyn befree or sawyer squeeze? I currently use katadyn befree after ditching my sawyer. Considering trying out the quick draw.

Also, im impressed with you still rocking the alcohol stove! Miss the beard though 😢

Always great to see how other people load out for trips. I watched the trip video and it looked like a great adventure. Three questions: #1 - When/why did you cut the beard? #2 - Are the prototype rain pants similar to the Tusher Jacket/when are the going to be released? #3 - Will there ever be a CS60? I love everything about my Shadowlight 60 except for the center zipper but, I do so much winter/snow camping that a 40 is too small for the bulk. Hoping a CS60 is in the future.

I'm going to Mount Kilimanjaro next year and looking for some good rain gear. Do you have any suggestions?

[timschwamb]

Did you not carry a stove and pot? Or did I miss it somewhere?

[kendalwethington]

Is that the tride and true fortius or we cant talk about that yet?

[inmtns]

What dry bag did you use for your clothing? Any idea what your total weight was with the camera gear?

[millerhoo]

I though you brought your “bear protector” :)

[nathanb]

I thought bear cans were mandated in the winds

Okay now that this guy doesn't look obnoxious I'm ready for some Outdoor Vitals stuff. I wonder what kind of winter stuff they got 🤔
