  • I do a full backpacking gear load out with my Osprey Atmos 65 AG. I show you everything I carry with me on an 2 night overnight backpack trip. What you carry and how you carry it while backpacking is important.
    Thanks for watching,
    Base Camp Chris
    The Atmos™ AG 65 is the best-fitting, most ventilated and comfortable pack ever made for traditional backpacking trips up to a week or more in duration. The innovative AntiGravity suspension makes it feel like you're carrying less weight and seamlessly wraps around your body, which means you'll enjoy every mile more than ever. From easy to use stretch mesh side pockets, Stow-on-the-Go trekking pole attachment, and FlapJacket for lidless use, the Atmos™ AG 65 is still the top contender. Backed by our All Mighty Guarantee, forever.

    It’s refreshing to see someone who’s not so obsessed with minimalistic gear and making their pack weigh less than 10 lbs. Some people like to have comforts like a hot meal or extra layers!

I also made a video about it on my channel but it was more focused on the Osprey almighty guarantee. I am happy that there is now this video that shows you how to load the ATMOS 65!

    I'm a little late to the party but I enjoyed your gear run down and the explanations of your choices. Like yourself, I also have the Osprey Atmos 65 and love the pack and how it works. Though I don't have to carry "winter" gear as I live in Hawaii, we do have altitude (13,000+ ft) on one Island and 10,000+ feet on the Island of Maui so we do have cold conditions at times And snow, on the Island of Hawaii at 13,000 feet. Again, appreciate you sharing your load out and gear. Be vigilant. Be safe during these COVID-19 times. Aloha from Hawaii ~

    I have this pack as well. Great pack for warmer weather, reducing back sweat, and increase back support. Not so great for strapping snowshoes to the exterior of the pack. New England trail conditions change too often requiring quick change between snowshoes, MicroSpikes, and boots. Have you tried the Osprey winter bladders made by HydraPak? HydraPak ArticFusion Hydration tube? HydraPak Force 3 Liter or HydraPak Velocity IT 1.5 Liter bladders?

    • @basecampchris
      @basecampchris  Před 4 lety +2

      Mi Mike, New England sounds like some challenging winter hiking! I hear it’s great outdoor country up there. I have not heard of the HydraPak Arctic Fusion, I looked it up it looks like it would work! …well insulated. Might be a good test to leave it outside overnight in the cold and see how it does in the morning. Thanks for recommending that. “Keep Hiking!”

    My Osprey Volt also has the dual access side pockets, but my straps seem to go over the pocket instead of around it as yours seems to do. Makes it difficult to get a water bottle in and out, and if I use the front facing access my bottle will fall out if I’m not careful. Any suggestions?

      Kind of depends on the type of gear you have ( tent/ sleep pad/ bag / pillow ) if it's ultra light and packs small a 50 would probably be fine if it's larger I'd look at the 65L.
