Thanks for the shoutout, dude! Hope you enjoy the beers!

Modern gear is so amazing. I remember, after hiking 12 days with climbing gear and no food left, my pack weighed 79 LBS. Climbing in the Minarets was cancelled because of heavy snow. Packs were 3-6 LBS, tents 7-8 LBS, giant mountaineering boots weighed a ton. Still, we had a great time.

Nice video! Thank you! Nice and tight setup!
I have a tip for you. You don’t have to carry the syringe to backwash your Sawyer if you have a Smart Water bottle that fits the nozzle for your filter. You can just snap that on and squeeze your bottle to backwash your filter. Switch the Sawyer Water bag for a CNOC, which is much easier to use and has a wider opening to gather water. Then, when you take that rubber band off, put it around the neck of the bottle, and you won’t lose it!

Things get heavy when you have to pack for all 4 seasons! It can get so hairy in the Rockies so fast you just have to be ready for anything. I learned everything I know about backpacking in the Rockies and have had to unlearn some of them on the east coast. Hiking after 1pm and not being in a rainstorm seems so alien to me.

Hey Now Bryce. My son and I are thru hiking the Ohio Towpath in two weeks. Thanks for the informative videos. Have a great hike.

I've found mcflurry spoons have the best strength to weight ratio for plastic spoons. I put a little tape on the side hole to stop liquids getting in there

How much and how often you drink combined with your mood when you don’t drink is a more accurate way to determine if you have an alcohol issue

My Town Shirt sun hoodie is in transit. Thank you for divulging the information on a previous video. Since I live in Texas, I’m pumped about getting mine.

flip flops for camp is the best choice

Heading out to do the first 6 segments of the colorado trail this weekend 🥰 The rain this year does seem excessive… but fantastic for water ❤️

[RyanSchell]

I'm too lazy to look in the comments for this. But instead of taking the Sawyer plunger for back flushing the filter. The sports cap on your LifeWater bottle should go over the clean end securely enough to use one of your water bottles to back flush.

Best backcountry alcohol is Tang concentrate in the squirt bottle and 151.

My sawyer crapped out on me last week too. I should have brought the plunger. I cleaned it with the plunger the week before I left, but it stopped working again on the trail. I ordered the BeFree when I got home lol

Curious, Bryce, if you would pack this lightly if you were, say, going to be out on the trail for 12-14 days without any resupply except for food (every 3 days) and water. No stopovers . No electricity. No cellular. (You'd usually be within 4-8 hours of being able to get to "help" in the form of someone who could call out for it using a radio.) Average elevation 8000 feet. Variable terrain. Temps ranging from 45-50 on the low side overnight to 80+ during the day. Thundershowers always possible.

PD Carbon Fiber Tripod. You'll love it. Especially since you YouTube. Why the switch from hyperlite to liteaf? I'm deciding what ultralight bag to pick up

[Canadian_Craftsman]

Excellent loadout silly added suggestion but for your water bottle scoop try a Capri Sun pouch it packs flat and is nice QUIET 🤫 😆✌️💚✊️🔥

[JoelMBarr-hhvs]

So instead of the patch - there's this stuff we used in Colorado (Ironically) called Apothacanna which is like this pain relieving cream that smells really good. It does the trick. Little bottle of that, cures what ails you - especially with sore muscles and all the little nicks and cuts one gets on the trail. Great video. Subscribed.

Those lined latex gloves look really nice. I don’t see them on your gear listing. Do you have a link or know makes them???

You have a great approach about your videos that always make me laugh and smile when they are over.

You can get the dyneema or ultra food bag and hanging rock bag from hilltop packs
