I went on the perfect overnight backpacking trip with my ideal combo of luxurious and ultralight backpacking gear! Here in Washington State, May and June is still the early season for backpacking. Many of the trails here are high in the mountains, and while the snows are melting day by day, it is still mostly winter up there. But there are a few gorgeous lower elevation trails here where summer arrives early! With a great weather window I headed out to spend a glorious overnight at Ingalls Creek with Abby and Rainer - the Miranda Goes Outside crew, and my two best friends! Plus Tucker, of course, the ultimate good dog! We had attempted a luxurious trip like this last year but the bugs ate us alive! This time? It was just perfect. This is what ideal early season backpacking looks like to me. I hope you enjoy! đ

came for miranda stayed for tucker
Heâs the real star
This is the way
I love the mini pan !!!!!!! Check out the chair !!!!!
Eric made a convert đ đ
@@MirandaGoesOutsidethose puppy eyes pulls my heart â€stringsâŠso đ„°
@@RainerGoldenis tucker a great pyrenees?
That's Tucker's tent that Rainer gets to sleep in :)
Too accurate đ
my mini labradoodle gets so excited to be in the tent that she tries to get the zoomies in theređđ
I love when Tucker joins in on the trips! He adds to the sweet and chaotic vibes. In AZ we always stomp during rattlesnake season to try not to sneak up on them.
He really does!! Heâs such a vibe. We love him đ©·
@Abby- Your anxiety box is amazing! †Thank you for sharing that. I adore how this channel helps normalize prioritizing mental health. â€
Isn't it such a good idea?! I love Abby's anxiety box - I think I need to make my own!!
Same! Loved that lil bit, it's such a great idea đ thank you for sharing, Abby.
Iâd love to know what the quote from Anthony Bourdain says
Hiking + friends + gear + doggos = absolute perfection.
Truly the best combo!!
Miranda's energy and never-ending sense of whimsy is what the world needs. Always đâ€ïž
âpanic attack box.â What a brilliant idea!
THIS IS MY MOST BEST, GOSH DARN
đđđ
â@@MirandaGoesOutside "MOST BEST" needs to be a sticker!!!
One of the things I love about your trips is you are real and feel free to complain and grumble if/when things are hard, yet you also keep in perspective that the hard parts are not the whole experience and things can be really great even if there are moments that are hard and cranky. I am thinking of those trips with a lot of elevation that are really challenging and you persist and get the reward of doing something really rewarding.
Did I just watch a Miranda video were she didn't burp? Is the world coming to an end? đ€Ł
When you put the down hood on all I could imagine is "Dark Helmet" from SpaceBalls the movie! blahahahaha
Right when I thought "if only they had some beer, wine, or booze" Miranda gets the wine from the creek đ€Ł
You should have Tucker, Rainer, and Abby on camera more often.
This video was so much fun! Thank you for letting us hang out with you all.
"they're really good at setting boundaries" LOL
They are the friend group we all want to be inâ€
This video IS Miranda, gosh darn. I am here for this. A little bit of gear, a good bit of personality!
An easy way to make pancakes while backpacking is to put the powder mix in an old squeeze bottle (ketchup, mayonnaise, etc). And when you're ready to cook, just add water and shake
Ooooh, that's such a good idea!
Who doesn't like a good cheese off next to a crystal clear stream by a trail full of wild flowers?
You guys living that good life
"It's Miranda's first time drinking" was brutal omg
I'm not gonna lie. I'm kinda mad we didn't get a "cool rattlesnake setting boundaries animation graphic" edit for the video.
Really gorgeous trail and hike, Miranda. Thanks for another adventure đ
This! Sticker idea!
As someone who always has the urge to need to do the bigger/harder/more technical trips, this is such a great reminder.
Consecutive Miranda Goes Outside!! videos without a burp: 1
Thank gahd
What a beautiful overnight backpack trip that was. I recently learned that stomping does not deter rattlesnakes. Smell and vision is how they get around. Being alert is key so we can leave each other alone. Giving them space to retreat was perfect as I understand it. I used to be scared to see one. Now I hope I see any wildlife.
All of this positive, silly energy is what we need more of in the world â€ïž yaâll are simply the best
I donât know if Iâve ever disliked a video of yours. But this one? I was smiling the whole time. Trips like this make the heart grow fonder. Tucker reminds me of my pup, always so excited to get in the tent when we set up camp.
YAAAAAAWWWWWWP!! Thatâs all.
Youâre *just* a chicken.
The world's MOST BEST detective. It was right there, Rainer?!?! đ
@RainerGolden I loved every bit of this video EXCEPT what happened to your pack - that was tragic! Hope you get a trail angel off-trail!
Absolutely love your energy! If i ever find a hiking partner that has your purity i will call myself the luckiest man alive. Keep up the energy and wish you all the best nature has to offerđ€đ»
on cold weather trips i carry some coconut oil for my pancake mix. since it goes hard when its cold, its easy to carry without leaving a mess
These are the kinds of trips my friend and I love! We love to camp more than do super long hikes. So we started backpacking just as a means for spontaneous camping trips đ
It is so nice that you have such a close nit group of friends that you can go hiking with
7:58 YAWWWWP! 10:05 the return of Peter Rounz followed soon by the return of Space Nun at 13:57 and Tucker all the way through. Perfect!
This episode had it all it was magical thank you for sharing all this and the hard work that goes into every minute of capturing these moments đâ€ïž
Pancake nonstick trick--get individual packets of ghee and use them. Melts on the pan, tastes buttery, shelf stable.
I have to say, it made me feel so good seeing that I am not the only one with an emergency anxiety kit. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING!!
Just received my Miranda Kula! âThis is my Kula, gosh darn.â I love it!!!đ
That was the perfect hike... beautiful scenery, wonderful company, best friends and one awesome dog!!!
13:32 I think the jury is still out on this. Iâve stopped worrying about it, since I donât think mold will be what does my sleeping pad in before something else does, like a rock or the sun melting the plastic.
The reason I keep coming back is you are such a goofball Miranda. You always make me laugh.
I'm so happy you cut in GOB's chicken dance with that nose thing. I'm also so happy "It's kind of interesting how it like goes soft then goes hard again" was kept in the edit
This looked like a wonderful hike and camping trip with friends. Looks so relaxing and laid back too. Can't think of a better way to spend an overnighter.
Always so fun to see Miranda's adventures! Very cool! Love the gear y'all used! And to see sweet Tucker is a bonus!
That looks like such a nice time. Good friends in the âwildâ.
YAY DINGLEDADS MADE THE VIDEO! Great video.
Iâve been getting more and more into camping / backpacking and this channel has been such a great resource for knowledge and just fun as hell to watch! Cheers keep the videos coming đđ»ââïžđđ»ââïžđđ»ââïž
Another wonderful time in the woods. Thanks for sharing with us!
I love this so much! Ingalls Creek is such a special place. It was where I first took my kids backpacking and Iâve been several times to see the flowers. Didnât used to see snakes, but the last couple times I have come across them. Thanks for showing an accessible idea for overnighting, not everyone can do big trips all the time. Sometimes we just want to go sit out in nature.
Watching you guys brings so much joy. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
This is AMAZING đ I wish I had backpacking friends to do this stuff with đ if any of Mirandaâs watchers live in northern Oregon or surrounding areas, hit me up! I would love to connect!
I was smiling all over this video, good to see you had relaxing backpacking trip and the Tucker what a lovely doggie â€
Have to watch your videos every time. Your energy and simple enjoyment of the outdoors is infectious. Keep smiling and keep laughing.
Oh, my heart! You guys & your wonderful friendship with each other & the PNW & a very good doggo. All just so lovely.
Gonna try to do this as my first backpacking trip. TY!
Havenât tuned in for too long - so good to see you again! Loved this laid back awesome camp, and learned a valuable lesson on putting the pack into the tent- - thanks Rainer! Learned a lot from your posts- which is how I chose most of my equipment. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us- love ya! â€ïžđżđżđ§đŒđ
Appreciate the reminder and honestly yâall had so much fun I just stopped looking for long hikes and started looking for shorter ones. Thank you!
We think Tucker needs a CTUG collapsible Ultra Dog Bowl! đđ
Super love trips like this !!
So much fun! I love your relaxing luxury trips. đ„°
Me too!! They are always so rejuvenating đ„°
I bet you all a blast to adventure and camp with. Such a fun video!
This video and the one of you packing your bag really gave off âtalented friends who love the outdoors making videosâ vibes, and Iâm all for it.
Cool times with good friends
This video was so much fun, loves it. The whole atmosphere was great.
What a great trip!
The best vibes!
Always waiting for your videos; we're always excited to watch them from the Philippines.
What a lovely place to hike.
Loved this! I actually did my first solo backpacking trip a couple of weeks ago on the Ingalls Creek Trail and stayed in the same campsite. It was great!!
You go! I hope I can get the guts to do one myself. đ
yay new miranda vid
love the tiny skillet
"I'm a Disney Princess" had me dying! :'D
I was laughing when she immediately proceeded to swat it right after. When it panned to Tucker basking there, I was like heâs the real Disney princess! đ He was one with the wildlife for sure.
Nemo gear is AWESOME!!!
Iâve been waiting to see you with this tent!!!! Yay! Such a good day :)
Oh yay!!! It is sooo luxurious!! Thanks for watching đ€
Top tier content right here! Fantastic video!! đ
I clicked on this video so fast!!! Itâs getting me even more excited for all my trips this summer!
Suddenly I want a backpacking chair .đ
the panic attack box
Thanks for the fun video.
Miranda: virgin voyage
Rainer: MAIDEN VOYAGE!
Me: đđđâ€â€â€
I love you backpacking trip videos.
'Tis bliss!!
Love to see the Skida!!
Iâve loved all of your videos but this is your best yet. The recording, b-roll, editing, vibes were all next level. What luck that all the conditions aligned behind the intentions you set for the trip! Love this wholesome shit. Like, make this the new Friends. Iâd watch ten seasons. â€
Fun! Planning my first 2 night trip. Need to remember the đ· !
Thanks yâall for all the great content!!!! Itâs just so gosh darn educational and fun!!!!
Now I have a few years on yâall and my camping/hiking is a little different than yâallâs but I was so glad that I heard the weights on yâallâs packs. I purchased an Atlas Adventure a while back because of the reviews and the ability to carry the media equipment I use.
I love it but I seem to unpack, repack it a lot more than use it. But I guess thatâs part of the fun. So I keep shaving things out of it to cut down on the weight.
So last night I made up my mind to trim it down one more time and I got it down to 22 lbs. So Iâm going to stop because I still have to add water and a few other things but Iâm Iâve just got to go!!! So Thanks Yâall!!!!!!!
Love Miranda videos
And Miranda videos love you back đ
Very nice! Not to mention, river/stream trout fishing just opened for season yesterdayđ
Hooray, Ingalls! I am on this trail a lot. Maybe that dream where I ran into Miranda on trail could come true. (Like an actual dream. At night. That kind...)
Fun video! I havenât gone this season yet. Itâs not open yet. Waaa. Bummer about the pack. I ALWAYS put all of my stuff inside my tent, including poles after marmots chewed my cork.
Love this! Agree, Nemo makes good gear. I have their Jazz sleeping bag & Cosmo sleep pad.
Every time I watch your videos I find another piece of gear I âneedâ. Keep it up the good work!
Your channel is right up there in the top three CZcams channels that I watch regularly and that are the most helpful and enjoyable to watch. Question: Please do an evaluation on various devices to weigh gear (seen early in this video).
Love that Rainbow can of sparkling rose. đč. A few years ago I thought trying to bake cupcakes on a backpacking trip would be fun. It is not and basically turned out the same as your pancakes. Live and learn. đ
Love this video! Iâm obsessed with Abbyâs panic attack kit and will definitely be making one of my own.
Jolly good detective work, Miranda. Jolly good, indeed!
I love this whole video so much. I REALLY appreciate the panic attack kit. It is genius and so wonderful. I'm totally going to make one â€â€â€
Good to see you guys that day, even if you did take the campsite we wanted, đ. We went another couple of miles in, probably a mile short of Falls Creek, good night out!
Great video, maybe run into you again in the Cascades!
What a lovely, chill, magical trip! Thanks for taking us along! Iâm manifesting a friend group like this will find me, so I can finally start backpacking for real and go on overnight trips like this with some cool people like yall †(anyone in the PDX area needing a backpacking buddy, pick me!)
Also, def going to be stealing Abbyâs panic attack box idea đâ€
looks like a fun camp out
I so look forward to your videos
Again great show. I found a few Farm to Summit meals in Sprouts Supermarket On most Nemo tents I would go to 2 person for 1 camper I like having 2 doors and 2 storage areas.
I wanted Rainer to say "good night, Miranda" in his best Scooby Doo voice when she told Tucker good night đą
