Brilliant - good explanation of set ups
Thanks for your really helpful tips. I reallly apreciate you making this video.
Excellent! Very useful! ❤️👏
my beagle is the best hiking buddy. apart from occasional problems with herding dogs or feral dogs crossing your road (pack of feral dogs are worse than pack of wolves) with herding dogs, they are chilled out unless you try cutting the herd. feral packs are basically wolves in the woods. they will actually try attack your dog as food. them being dogs, does not have natural scare for human.
"life happens between the big moments.."
I don't understand the purpose of the video. The dog was just too tired to walk so long distances. In addition, the dog's legs are much smaller than the humans' and this makes their life much more difficult while walking.
Doubtful sound, known for its peacefulness and quietness. It's like you can hear the pin drop.
I’m planning on walking Estonia by foot any tips? No cars, buses, trains, or planes just walking.
0:30 I got a parking ticket in Tallinn in the winter of 2021/2022. You can only pay for parking, at least in the car park I chose, using an Estonian phone/SIM, as my foreign phone service provided data/calls/texts I didn't bother getting a local SIM. I was running late to visit the Energy Discovery Centre so took a chance not paying.
7:05 Several years ago I was cycle touring in Romania, out in the country side, far far from even large towns, and at a pensiunea I was asked by a member of staff if I was lonely. I'm pretty sure she meant was I alone and just used the wrong word, English was not her first language, so understandable. Although I was on a bicycle and not walking I felt the same as you, how could I feel lonely here!? It's wonderful here!
I watched this a few years ago and I'm still on my watercolour journey. Thank you!
Hello my name is Marco fan for you ❤❤❤❤
I LIKE YOU-I HOPE YOU LIVE THROUGH THE WORLD SITUATION !!!!!!!!!!
Ou es tu ?
She is SO CUTE!!! Thank you for this.
Hello, i have 0deg limit confort sleeping bag do you think it.s enough in most cases ? Are they always providing an extra blanket ? Thank you for your help
My hike was so long ago that I do not know the situation now. But in 2019 there were always extra blankets available. The upper camps will below freezing for sure, but with the blanket you will survive :)
Doubtfull is awesome
Great vid. About 3/4 way through you used a water purifier. Some good news; no need. The back country rivers (and especially tributaries) in NZ are pure, wholesome, and germ free. If you are in a farmed area, there may be gardia and other gut-wrenchers. But the back country is pure water.
Please add a link to written instructions in the description.
I have a rough collie/border collie mix and she is always super happy on a hike! She's so energetic so I'm always the one who's the most tired. She could go all day but we don't because I don't want to overwork her and I wouldn't be able to do that myself either. I honestly only hike because I get to do that with her. Without my dog I would have no reasons to hike. My mother has a small poodle mix and she (the dog) gets tired way faster and wouldn't be able to go as far and as long as my collie so I think the breed matters a lot in this case.
I'm a survivalist and bushcraft expert the reason your ferrow rod isn't working that great is your technique is not fully correct try other ways to strike it

Super! I want to visit this island!❤🎉
Did you size up with boots or anything?
Yes, I always size 1-2 sizes up with all my winter shoes, including my ski boots.
What dogs are they ? Amazing trip!
They are Alaskan huskies! And you are correct, they are amazing ☺️
@@MaiuLunekund thanks for reply
Great insights. This was Very helpful!
Hey, great video. What tent are you using? The Hilliberg Nallo GT??
I had the Fjällräven Polar Endurance 3
I stil search you up as hiker in Estonia
Me too!
Hey Maiu, I've just come across this video. I met you on Singi in April (?) 2022! I had my greenland dog Tjaktja with me and we stayed in the same cabin. :D I was just having some time off from work as a dogsledding guide/musher near Kiruna. I don't know if you remember me, but it doesn't matter. I just wanted to reach to you and say hello. :D I hope you are doing well! That Kungsleden of your's was an epic journey, well done!
Hei! I do remember you! So nice that you commented, what good memories from that winter 😊
3 sizes too big i wont be able to walk
If you fill these 3 sizes with peoper wool socks, you will absolutely be able to walk 😉
Thank you! Exactly what I needed and I loved your delivery.
In my experience, the more I drink, the more liquid is in my body which makes me more cold. If I drink normally instead of excessive like you said that I’m fine. The key is to just drink normally. And if you eat excessively before you go to sleep, you will wake up multiple times to urinate, because it will press on your bladder.
Hello ! Je découvre seulement tes aventures sur la Kungsleden maintenant, je vais les regarder en attendant d'aller faire un peu la même chose dans le Jura !
Was lucky enough to finally visit Doubtful Sound in December of last year and it was incredible. The weather was cold and raining which meant many waterfalls. Both Doubtful Sound and Milford Sound are amazing, but there was just something extra special about Doubtful Sound and the whole experience.
5:30 Mike Tyson called, he wants his gloves back! ;) This is the most thorough vid I've seen on how to keep your hands/fingers warm in extreme cold.
Epic journey. Well done and well documented 😃👌
This trip looks amazing I would love to do similar
Well done i Will look ferder. Nice thath you spek abot the mental game. Som times i its the hardest game.
you could also put some kind of reflective material under the insole. like alufoil or sunscreen for a car.
So why no one make soles with mostly air inside. And winter boots with ventilation for active things
Great video! Thank you!
I have severe allergy to wool - do you have any alternatives?
Super beautiful, charming, cool girl subbed, best regards, the scene with the spider was great, well done to the cameraman
This was very helpful, thank you! I also want to know what is your skincare routine because your skin is so beautiful, what's your secret!
You posted this 2 years ago? Seems longer. I normally go camping in size 8 German para boots, I wanted to go camping in the winter and remenbered you saying to get bigger boots, I ended up buying size 13 German para boots. It's going to take alot of insoles and socks to fill them up and I'll probably gain an inch in height, IF, I can walk in them. lol Ps. Haven't seen you on Facebook or CZcams for a while, hope you are keeping well.
The easiest thing would be if you have high boots to just tuck trousers in, yet I understand that gaiters are higher and even with trousers tucked they offer quite nice amount of protection, that is why I came here to check your tutorial😊
I have 2 dogs. My girl is super dog friendly and my boy is a bit timid and barky at dogs. So i understand having a less dog friendly dog. I find it more of a challenge balancing the needs of both my dogs when other dogs are around because Pablo gets so upset and loud. It stresses me out. On top of watching Lexi and other dogs around. I prefer taking them both to areas with just us, not other dogs. I try and be responsible and keep my dogs on lead. It scares me when others don't especially because Pablo is such a small and yappy timid boy. I really love dogs but i hate when other dogs owners don't respect that Pablo and I don't enjoy strangers or strangers dogs approaching us
Wow… your videos are epic! Looking more forward than I expected to this tramp thanks to your video :) Cathy
Thank you very much for those tips… got the long gaiters now, and thinking what else to help with sandfly protection :)
