Amazing! Loved your video!!
Cool thannk you for sharing
this is beautifully made! where in big sur is that shot at 2:33?
Sometimes it's a Two Tick Tacoless Tuesday. So it goes...
Did you need permits to hike? And whatâs the trail head called you started at?
You have the nicest colors of all sony camera developers
I just free climbed it
Dog is so cute. Sceneries are amazing
Are you splitting a single or double rack when you pack for backcountry climbing?? Iâm blown away you can fit all that plus trad gear/anchor building materials in there. Maybe I carry too much đ
Usually doubles to 3. One of us carries the cams and the other person carries the slings. Helmets, shoes and rope on the outside. Obviously the bag is a bit fuller when we bring the climbing gear. Youâll see it in our upcoming video next week!
This was a great video! A piece of potential advice, keep a magnesium rod and scraper, as well as some form of larger work knife with you. Coming from the Canadian Army, there's been many cases where lighters don't work even when dry. Magnesium is a reliable wet or dry fire starter option and a larger work knife, pocket or fixed blade will let you do a multitude of things such as prepare small game in a bad situationđ
WowâŠ.this is the cleanest audio I have heard from a backpacker channel. What audio stuff they using?
This is recorded on a Zoom H4N

@@redesignedlife777 on the device, you can actually see it at the bottom of the screen in the shadow.
Great video you have inspired me to go here
Great achievement. Which season was this trip?
Last year!
It adds weight but adds (lazy) pleasure too: chair, table, heavy knife, grill, spices and a nice juicy steakđ for supper and bacon đ„ for breakfast đ
Thank you very much, the video is such so detailed. Actually all of your videos are detailed. Expect more.
New video is out on the same topic!
Awesome video. I am curious, do you just use one quilt for both of you?
Two quilts. Itâs subtle in this video but youâll see an orange one and a blue one
Your tips are great! It reminds me of my own winter camping adventures in the snow, where every piece of gear becomes crucial for survival. The critical role gear plays in ensuring safety and comfort becomes even more apparent in harsh winter conditions. I've spent a lot of time fine-tuning my backpacking setup this season, especially for winter camping, aiming to move lighter and faster while maintaining comfort. It's incredible how small adjustments can enhance the whole experience.
I really don't understand why most hikers and backpackers don't carry tourniquets. Is the kind of thing that you probably never going to need, but if you broke a leg or something and cut an artery, it would save your life. An SOS rescue team wouldn't find you on time. (In between 1 and 3 minutes, you would be gone).
Good question. I figure IF we ever need one, hopefully I can use my belt or cut off a strap from my backpack or climbing rope or something similar.
@codyandvictoria Just carry a Cat7 tourniquet, brother đđœ It's way better than to bet your life in something that most likely will fail you.
I don't have that specific pack, but I imagine the length of the top strap was so long to accommodate a bear canister?
Yessss lone peaks for the win! đđ»đ
Awesome to see what all you guys bring! I would hesitate to say you "fit it all" in those 38L packs though... I get having a climbing rope and maybe a helmet on the outside, but the b-roll from whitney with all that stuff hanging on the outside looked miserable haha. And then to see at the end you can't fit everything in normally... that's a big deal breaker for me. But the packs do look sick, I just bet a 45-50L would probably be better for you guys.
Yeah the thing is we donât want to CLIMB with a 50L bag you know? Sure it would fit better but then youâre lugging a 50L up 10 pitches. Gotta make sacrifices. As for the end of the video, the Nalgene and the mugs would EASILY fit. We just have always put them on the outside
â@@codyandvictoria Totally valid, that would be a little more miserable if you were climbing with it!
nice stuff, very helpful as I'm learning to adapt hiking with a partner. not a big fan of things dangling on the outside of the pack, but at least those Nalgene filters can be secured by those lower tightening straps.
I agree. Not a fan of dangles either but gotta do what you gotta do
This place is like 45mins from me and we love it for riding out onewheels down
Multitool knife and folding saw?
Weâve got a few knives for things. Weâre not out there for survival or bush craft. Mostly to camp and climb.
And a bit about a dog; perfect!
Just subscribed....happy I found you đ§đđ
đđŒ glad youâre here
Last week I used 13:29 LNMT on a 78 mile bike ride, NO cramps, sold
It honestly is good stuff!! We love it
Safety is sexy for sure, but our idea of safety is way way different. Have looked into a Backcountry First-aid course? Just fiid for thought.
No backcountry first aid, but I worked on an ambulance for a year.
Dude I miss your sony review and I wish you could do the sonya6700.
Ha Iâm sure thereâs 100 reviews on that camera
7:50 Wow I really couldn't disagree more, I find that's actually a huge plus! Especially in terms of aesthetics, this looks SO much better than all these stupidly bright and saturated colors, that just clash horribly with the environment, that backpacking gear usually comes in. I wish more gear came in natural colors like this. But also in terms of blending in I find that very useful for a tent when camping in legally grey areas or other situations where you maybe just don't want to be seen easily.
To each his own!
Lol I have the same sun hoodie as him
You guys are kind of funny, being scared of the exposed areas, when you have climbed up the walls of whitney, with your ropes.
Ropes is less scary đ
Love seeing all the gear you guys are using, those water filters in the Nalgene look great!
Yeah the Epic Water Filters are pretty slick! Stoked to have found them
wow, love the quilt and glasses, the glasses are so cool.
Just the fact that you bought the SAME pack is enough to turn me off to whatever your review video will say.
Alrighty.
Thank you for taking the time to make a backpacking video. Iâve had my gear for years and need to update a few things.
Nice video! What are the video settings for this video?
Side note - those Coal hats are THE SHIT!!! They're pricey but so comfy, light, and great for so many diff activities.
The long strap is for bear cans
You say itâs for bear cans, the person below you says itâs for your rope. Seems like they need to make it clear what itâs for haha
the long wite rope is for putting over your rope to secure it even more. You attach it to that little black latch on the back of your neck when you put on the pack.
Interesting. Iâll have to look into that
I don't believe the marketing on quilts. Ive slept in sleeping bags in extremely cold weather. The only problems i every found was the zipper leaking cold air. Most of this camping gear is marketing. Wait till you hit 55 no matter how much you sleep you always feel tired .you learn to just go with it. Lol I use membrane solutions. Best water filter ive found. They are rebuildable and have a carbon filter. Ive never went anywhere without a sleeping outfit and a chage of clothes plus extra socks and underwear. All that together weights under 2 pounds. In summer even lighter. Nothing more dangerous then being wet and temp drop. I always carry a poncho. Ive camped from the Wasatch mountains to the Appalachian Mountains an im still around just im forced to wear knee braces to be able to walk. Who knew jumping out of planes would destroy your knees and the government i served only cares about illegals.
Whatâs the voltage on the Omni charge power bank? Is it the 20,000 mAH?
Yes I believe so. Itâs the main one on Amazon :)
You two are the best! I love your Chanel.
đđŒâ€ïž
There was no Chanel, Chanel doesnât (yet! @chanel) make hiking gear
@@openocean09181 đ spelling mistake âchannelsâ. Wouldn't that be something if Chanel made hiking gea!? for the Bougie hikers.
How do you pack this into such a small bag. I have a 50+5, and I STRUGGLE! Especially with camera gear.
Our camera gear is super minimal and never inside of our bag đ
@@codyandvictoria Well, there's not a whole lot either way. My tent and sleeping bag take up half my 50L bag. Then comes the kitchen gear & food. And that's pretty much my 50L bag. The +5L is for my camera gear. So, I take up the full 50+5L bag I have. And that's enough food for 2 days -- As I don't rely on dehydrated/freeze dried foods much. ALSO, splitting between two people might be easier than having it all for yourself.
Iâd love to see a video on what yâall pack for bike packing trips and how you pack it!
I gotta say, your videos provide no evidence of excessive "stink" due to clothing choices . . . but there is one small thing about cotton tees that many people don't appreciate unless they have firsthand experience of it. Having worked outside in all seasons, I can say that the poor wicking of cotton baselayers will plaster a garment down as well as full immersion, but without the cooling effect. If you're working hard in that condition, heat rash is a strong possibility -- and the better hydrated you are, the more sweat you have to supply for that result. And speaking of hydration, long sleeves in summer makes all the difference -- just ask a camel jockey why he's not sporting a tank top!
As a Search and Rescue volunteer over the last 12 years, I have never been called on a mission for a broken ankle or sprain ankle with someone wearing hiking boots. Itâs always been trail runners or those low top hiking shoes. An occasional Choco sandal. Just something to think about. So if youâre a clumsy hiker when you get tired at the end of your track like myself, then maybe high top boots are a better choice for you. Think of it as insurance. I paid the price for this decision hiking the Northwest National Scenic Trail.
Definitely sprained an ankle a time or two đŹđŹ
This is proper advice from someone with huge experience of this. Itâs the tiredness that does it.
Counterpoint. If someone is already prone to ankle injuries they may benefit from the extra support. For others, they'll develop better intrinsic stabilization using a lighter shoe and be less exhausted (and potentially less likely to suffer overall injury) by using trail runners.
@@HikerDocso the real philosophy then is, trail Runners for practice, hiking boots with ankle support during the real deal When safety is on the line.
Quilt Gang! đ Can't Wait to see you both in action this Summer!
Stoked!! Thanks for stopping by friends đđŒ
Slide a card (plastic or credit card/ ID) between the nubs on the bear canister to open it. Itll spin right out. Its comically easy! You'll never go back.
Ha super easy pro tip right there!
