    I've been out on the CT several times over the last few weeks. It's pretty hot and exposed so I recommend a sun hoodie, and, if you have it, a sun umbrella. The umbrella is also very handy when you get the daily afternoon shower that lasts 20 minutes. Much better than digging out your rain jacket every time. Also, the bugs are nuts. Mosquitoes and biting flies are on you as soon as you stop, so pack the bug juice and use it throughout the day.

    Based on Crusty's cameos I am way behind on my pack maintenance. I do recommend ex officio boxer briefs. Some things cannot be unseen.

    I LOVE your food mix. First time I have seen such an interesting snd palatable array. Doritos for lunch is brilliant. Hostess cakes for breakfast!!! All brilliant and foods anyone would want to eat. Goodbye oatmeal snd tuna packs!

    15:49 I've tried using the Nemo Tensor. I wake up with a sore back every single time. I"ve been using the Nemo Quasar 3D. It's heavier and has a lower R value, but it's so much more comfortable for me. I also sleep hot and so far all of my backpacking is in Arkansas. I hope Nemo will eventually release a version of the Quasar 3D with insulation like the Tensor so they can drop some weight.

    • @rungavagairun
      @rungavagairun Před rokem

      How will you inflate your Tensor? It doesn't look like you will carry one of the mini pumps. Will you carry an inflation sack or just your lungs?

    • @SkitterComic
      @SkitterComic Před rokem

      I have 3 Quasar 3Ds. They’re awesome. 2 of them are insulated. I don’t know if they still sell them, tho.

    Those Doritos are excellent fire starters 😉

    Great video, i am currently researching a new pack and wanted to ask about the front strech pocket, looks tight and not very stretching. Just from the video it looked like you were struggling to get things out. Let me know how it was.

    • @MidwestBackpacker
      @MidwestBackpacker  Před rokem

      Ultra stretch isn’t as stretchy as Lycra, but is waaaay more durable. It helps if you load the front pocket before loading your pack. I will have a full review of the Highline backpack in 2 weeks.

    When you say you navigated with your phone, does that mean the phone did all the work? Or was it connected to the InReach to get GPS?

    • @MidwestBackpacker
      @MidwestBackpacker  Před rokem +2

      Connected to inreach, but inreach not used for navigation. FarOut app for navigation.

    Just curious as to why you talk about your packs sizes in lbs rather than liters?

    • @MidwestBackpacker
      @MidwestBackpacker  Před 3 měsíci

      I think weight affects your comfort more than volume. Thanks for watching!

    Very well done...informative. Good luck on the Collage Mountain West thing...Oatmeal thinks that the man in the little underpants is very sexy...I just think he is cute.
