- My gear and philosophy behind ultralight hiking for about one week in the Swedish mountains. This video refers specifically to my Ruonek hike from last week, but the gear is universal for my longer summer trips. See the complete gear list:

I guess I'm kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch newly released movies online?
@Jayce Jaime i watch on Flixzone. Just google for it =)
@Ignacio Bentley yup, I have been watching on Flixzone for months myself =)
@Ignacio Bentley thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it!!
So refreshing to hear such a sober and tranquill voice. A lot of peace comes from this beautiful video.
I enjoy these occasional videos when you talk. Very eloquent in what is not your first language. Very easy to listen to.

I also wish to thank you all for the support and for making all these videos possible! Hope you enjoy this as much as I do :-) Thanks!
Thanks for entertaining us
"Don't waste your time to be afraid"...i'm agree with that and with your philosophy
thank you, best regards from french Alps
Depends on situation and location. Guess my alertness would be elevated camping in the Amazonas eg.
@@MrBirgerB Actually...
So true. I spent my time in the jungles of Northern Thailand mostly alone, and many ask if I am not afraid. Reality is, out there everything work by the simple and beautiful laws of nature. No spider bite because it had a bad day, no snake attacks you just because it can. If you know what, where and how, nature is so much more safe than the urban world. I find your videos a great inspiration, spent my first 25 years in the Scandinavian forests, and do miss it sometimes.
- Reading the map is one of the best things - Fantastic. I absolutely agree with you 👍👍👍
Great advice, especially toward the end of the film. Erik talks of the reality of nature and the obvious. But that is so needed with thousands of you tubers out there doing their own thing (in wonderful ways of course) and inspiring people like me - because I am afraid. When I was a child I was never afraid of being outdoors or in nature - but as an adult one sees from a less innocent viewpoint. Nonetheless, it is so great to hear this guy talking so simply and without arrogance and pomp - but explain clearly. I am so grateful to all the many you tubers who have helped me even just begin to gain confidence to do just a short hike and overnight stay. And this guy rocks. Big Thank You
"Reading the map is one of the best things" Jeg er helt enig! Dejlig telt-læsning. Tak for en god video.
Glad to hear you speak about fear, knowledge and how to enjoy nature. It is very important to just relax and know about what you are doing and where you are traveling. Very well spoken and great message.
Another great video..."cure your fear with knowledge." Wise words in all aspects of life.
Erik, thanks for your videos. You help keep me sane during this trying times (in the USA). Most of us are on edge. I just told my kids last night that we should go winter hiking/camping this year and all I heard were their food dropping on their plate and coughs😊. Yes, this Nigerian American mom told her med School student daughter, senior college student daughter and HS student son, that we should go winter camping. We don’t even do outdoor picnics well. It was a sight to see; just silence for seconds, with eyes popping and mouths open 😊. This is all thanks to you. I will fill you in when in happens. Thanks Erik.
Thanks! Yes please do :)
Yes, do it! I'm an Australian mum taking my 3 sons, 24,20 and 17 on a 6 day hike in Tasmania high country at the end of summer ( not winter...I hate being cold) Can't wait but also know it will be great for them. Lots of preparation and reading. Good luck!
Carmen Gauci thanks for your encouragement. I would love to and want my kids to experience it as well. Have a good day.
Thanks Erik!
Hope you have a great summer!
Watching this again - one of my favourite videos! Thank you.
Thank you Erik, your words in the end were very inspiring and true
What a master. Amazing videos and channel. Simply I love it.
An inspiring, educational mini doc from northern Sweden, thoroughly enjoyable as ever. Always look forward to your postings.
I really enjoy your videos. Appreciate the sounds as well as the scenes. Thank you for your dedication to bringing all of us this beauty. Terry.
Thanks Erik, I always learn something new from watching your videos!
Thanks for sharing. ATVB.
Steve. 👍👍
I am very glad that you shared your thoughts and experience with us. Tak.
Thank you Erik for an interesting explanation. The clarity of your filming was outstanding.
Great advice..and really good discussion at the end.
Great teacher you are in the ways to walk and blend with nature and enjoy ,thank you
Such a great film & philosophy.
Excellent choice of a topic. Thanks for sharing info on your gear and for your perspective on the outdoors. I agree with all you said.
good simple information about proven gear and the right philosophy, thank you!
Wisdom and experience. Thank you.
Nice video Erik, and wise words. In nature is the most beautiful thing there is.
Hello Erik, thank you for sharing your gear loadout review. You have all the essential equipment that you will need in the outdoors. The very best to you. I look forward to your next exciting and informative video. 🤗
I haven't seen a bear either but I've seen Erik smile😊 6:28
I LOVE your videos with just the sounds and sights of Nature and no talking, but this video where you talk about things and gear is very helpful!
Equipaggiamento logico e perfetto, grazie Erik.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Northern Sweden looks like a very nice place to hike and camp.
At the end of the video, you did a very good cosideration about confort and fear in the nature, thanks
Thank you for this great Video. Greetings from Norway.
The last few minutes (about knowledge and fear etc.) are my favorite ones. Well said man. Simple and true wisdom.
Tack för visdomsorden Erik samt dina fina videos.
Very good video... indeed, no need to be afraid of the outdoors.
Thank You Erik for your time and wisdom. I especially like the tranquil sounds and the wonderful videos that must take you ages to edit. I am always surprised at how calm you appear when dealing with the weather (show storms, wind etc) It brings a smile to my face every time you give coffee (a holy moment) a thumbs up. I look forward to your next adventures. Greetings and Happy Christmas from Austria
very much enjoyed your video Eric keep up the good work
Love you Erik,,,I am watching your videos regularly,, I feel so fantastic ,,,your videos are exceptional,,, I am enjoying the nature at home by just watching your clips,,,,thanks
Thanks for the interesting video and the good tips. Perfect and complete equipment and very light. There was a lot of what I'll buy.
All the best from Austria - Max.
I mainly like your videos because of the colors, the light, the quietness, the views, the image composition. Simply perfect. Makes me want to be exactly where you are.
Thanks Erik, a very useful video. I agree, people should not be afraid of the outdoors. You have more to fear on a city street (mainly cars and their pollution) than in a forest or on a mountain.
I was always in hesitations how to reduce the weight in the backpack and your kind demonstration gave me a great idea. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing!
I guess I spend too much time worrying at times. So, I really appreciated what you said about fear. The more you go to the great outdoors, the less fear you'll experience since you learn how things work out there.
Thanks Erik for sharing your wonderful hiking trip .Warm greetings Detroit , Michigan USA 🇺🇸
Such a humble man. Thanks Eric
Love seeing the country as well as your gear and techniques even though I live on the central plains of the USA. Thank you!
I like your train of thought, as simple as the outdoors.
I really really like the last words you say about being outdoors, to know you environment and that there is nothing you need to be afraid of in nature. Thanks for brining it to the point.
See you outdoors!
Thanks for a good video. Be part of nature you say, yes, I agree. I am more afraid in a city than out doors, I enjoy nature and I enjoy your videos. Cheers from Norway
Such a beautiful place !!!!! Thanks a lot for your advices... And I thank your country to make such wonderful knifes... Thanks from a french one :)
You have inspired me to get out and go on a solo trip here in Temagami park in Canada. Thank you sir.. life is too short to not be brave and adventurous!
Adding your ideas on acceptance, natural knowledge and managing your fears was a great way to end the video. They are important points that are sometimes overlooked. Thank you Eric. Peace.
Nice advice altogether :) You don't need much if you bring the right stuff.
I too love studying the map in the camp/tent, actually I could even buy maps and sit in my home kitchen drinking coffee and "walk" on/off the trails fantasizing about the landscape... haha :)
I do the same:D
Olegs Lapins Haha 🤣 My kids think I’m crazy 😅 Good to know there are more crazy people out there 😂
Great video! Agree, people are afraid of the wildlife but perhaps more out of fear of having to spend time with their own mind and without modern comfy. Started weekend hiking again after a long long break and love it. Keep up the good work! Tack👍
Alot of tranquility is what I get from your videos Erik. Thanks.
I spend alot of time in the forest and mountains, trying to get in shape so that one day I too can go on trips like yours.
Live right smack in the middle of Norway, and the only thing I fear when I'm out is the king of the forest, the moose.. but.. I keep my ears open, and a watchfull eye.
Thanks Erik...another great video...very informative
Well done Erik. Have a good week
Hi Erik, thanks for innovation and introducing your equipment. For my favorit region as supplement i do need waterfilter, headlamp and first aid kit. Have a nice summer hiking time. Good path. Alex
I asked a question about your last video regarding food and gear, this video has answered it perfectly. Many thanks. Your philosophy about wild camping and nature is also true, we have lost touch with nature and need to reconnect with it.
Thx for your vids and efforts. And thx for sharing.
I was in Härjedalen in ultimo may/primo june '06 + '07. Packed for the weather I had experienced previous years. +/-2, snowstorm, visibilety 50m.
But on these trips I had +30 dgr C. I almost melted. No sunblocker and only a light shirt. Drank 4-5 ltr water a day.
It's never the same in the mountains
You are always watching well. Thank you.
Legend Erik , Jimmy from galway, Ireland.really enjoy your content.very relaxing.
Well put, of all your gear the mind is the most important!
You are so right Erik!!!
On all points.. I'm admit I'm not so good about reading up about the local birds and such 🙁 ...but on many trips wish I had !!!
Great messages here - thanks Erik.
This video is very relaxing
I agree with your comments about not being afraid. Always be aware of your surroundings, use your brain. Great video. Greetings from California.
Hi Erik .. thanks for that and sharing with us.
Yes, each has their preferences .. however (my inmate curiosity 😉), it is nice to know what works for others in that one can learn from that and as such make for a better personal experience.
Take care ..
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I’d love to visit Sweden one day. It looks beautiful.
Hej Erik, I'm glad you mentioned that people need to accept to be in nature and have less comfort 👍🏻 this is one of my attitude in life in general, to accept. Only if you accept a certain situation, you can go on. Go on without loosing energy and focus on your life, on the moments. Only acceptance keeps you really going and continuing. I appreciate your videos and your mind for nature 🌿
Unagitated, competent and very likeable. Thanks Erik and greetings from Switzerland🇨🇭
Great video - I use a very similar cooking set up for ultralight trips - a 0.5 litre pot with a 0.25 lid, either with an ultralight gas stove and small canister or a trangia burner and cross stand. Keep these amazing videos coming.
More and more hiking erik!! Thank you for your video.. ☺️
Ilove to watching your video, cuz in the Philippines never happen like that..
Thank You for this video.this is very helpful to me.
Great video. Using ur videos for preparation
Most enjoyable and helpful
An excellent and informative report.Especially the comment saying.Do not expect home comforts when you are out in the hills,woods etc..Many people do and are disappointed so spoiling their trip.
Thank you for sharing your gear list
Great videos, I really enjoy your content.
very peaceful. Thanks
Excellent speech , essential and I say to you that I'm agree about all. I think that to be outdoor is a culture first of all and not all people are aware to be out in the forest, mountain and so on. My best greeting for your trips-
Thanks för sharing!
Thank you Erik. Verry good Video!
Great video man. Have an awesome Sunday, Andreas 🇸🇪
Thanks for information, Eric!! :)
Excellent video. Great information.
Great video. Alway’s looking for a better system. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍.
Hi! Thanks for the video, it is nice as usual! Watching for your videos is relaxing for me, and I very appreciate them also because of no advertisement and the fact that you don't say in the end something like - "Put thumbs up my friends" 😀. Such a swedish not pushing and respectful mentality I guess 👍
Erik, Great video! abundant detail, but brief and to the point. Your videos commuicate more by saying less. The visuals send the message!
Your mic is very good. Great audio.
Such great content as well. I'm glad I found your channel.
When I heard the mosquito I couldn't help but look around :-).
Nice work! I need to get to Northern Sweden, probably next year now.
Cheers!
Great video and good information!
Very interesting and helpful.
Awesome video! Thanks! 👍
Very good and nice video! Thx!!
I'm agree with your philosophy. Best regards from Turkey :)
really enjoy your films.
