Shout out to Backcountry Foodie! She has the best recipes as well as Masterclasses. This is a great video for less $$ options out there.
She really does! I did a Master Class the first year I had the subscription, and it was great. I imagine they've improved since then. I love that she's also doing hiker boxes now, too!
I hope this helps people get outside!!
I like cheap water shoes for camp shoes, they're cheaper, lighter and smaller than crocs, but croc lovers love the feel I suppose
I'm glad they work for you! I've tried a few different options, and found that I really need support or my feet hurt like crazy. Crocs (and Chacos) work well for me, but my Tevas weren't supportive enough. Water shoes are certainly a viable option, though, for all the reasons you listed! If they work, keep using them!!
I also like the water shoes. I got them on Amazon.
Definitely considering water shoes for camp use. Want my toes covered, so no sandal.
This is awesome info! I’m envisioning you on a hiking trip collaboration video with Miranda goes outside 🎉
That would be so much fun! I love her style, and we've both worked for REI! Amanda Outside would be another one I'd love to hike with!
@@WanderingSwitchback the ultimate trio!
Thanks for the video. Paria Outdoor Gear has affordable, relatively lightweight gear. Also Decathlon.
Happy hiking!
Thank you for the info! I've heard good things about both brands, but don't have any of their gear to speak of... yet!
+1 for Decathlon and their Forclaz MT100 Down Jacket
I just got a 15 degree down quilt from Paria and so far I love it! Had it out last weekend on a low 30s windy night and it was very warm! (I don’t “plan” on being out in any temps colder than 30-but you never know!
Another great video! Cheap is the best! Especially these days! Lots of valuable info! I love that you do your research to make sure your info is up to date. LoL..."You don't need to know how much I weight." You crack me up! Love your work crocs! Makes sense to buy the cheapest color crocs for camping.
Thanks Kat! I definitely want to make sure I'm recommending gear that still exists! 😂 But also anything that looks like an even better option for some folks.
At work, I am known for all my crazy Crocs! I get comments all the time from patients and coworkers! Plus my unicorn scrub cap! I joke that I bring the rainbows and unicorns to the emergency department!
Love it! I have no doubt that you do! :)
I hope your legs are Doing better. Take care.
Thank you so much! Surgery next month, so hopefully, I'll be back with my feet in the dirt this summer!
Great information. Thanks
Thank you! I hope you're well!
Great video! I love “cheap”. Prefer to say being economical. I love making most my own gear from scratch: tent, backpack, trekking staff and foodstuffs. Just the way I am!
I admire anyone who can make their own gear! Those materials are tough to work with- that takes some skill!
Marketplace is full of brand new never used camping gear with tags still on it for half tge cost of a new one. Sometimes way less than half. People just but the latest and greatest tent, or jacket, or sleep pad saying that "im gonna start getting out more this season" but then it just sits in their closet or garage for 3 years before they finally realize they arent going to use it. I was so close to druving 3 hours last week to buy a litefighter 2 tent that was still in original shipping box with all the tags. They wanted 80 at first and then came down to 65. That tent is almost 500 new on their website or usually as army surplus used for 250- 200 if your lucky on ebay. Needless to say, it didnt last very long at that price. I got a brand new eno hammock with profly xl for 40$ for both. Just the fly is over double that new
Oh wow! There are definitely some amazing finds if you search online. So much gently used or never used gear bought with intent, but life gets in the way. People can get stuck on new gear, but I’ve found some awesome stuff used, too.
Wow, such amazing advice in this video. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!
Thank you so much!
WoW! That’s Incredibly Awesome! Thank You so much!
Thank you! I appreciate that!
As a newbie,I love this, thanks ❤
Thank you! I hope it helps you get out there!
good video I was getting tired of watching videos where other YT swear you CAN'T survive a single night unless you have $300 dollar jet boil a $800 tent $1000 sleeping bag and so on.
Budget gear is so important to help people get out there! But I agree, it’s easy for folks to fixate on and promote the expensive stuff. I’m glad you liked this! 🙂
A few items that are my fave that aren't considered "camping/hiking brands" my Sistema plastic mug with snap-loc venting lid, bought it at Vons. I like having a mug with a lid to keep bugs out🤣. I let my oatmeal "cook" in it then transfer my food to a collapsible bowl. & use the mug to drink my coffee out of.
I got a lightweight microfiber towel from CVS $10- I've soaked it & thrown it over myself on a hot exposed trail, it makes a great mat for outside my tent too.
Overall I've gotten some great deals from Used gear sites on Facebook, Ebay & even Poshmark. It's a matter of consistently looking. I got some nearly new Teva Omnium water shoes for $25 retails for $90. Just be warned it can be addicting finding bargains 😁
I love having a mug with me, too! Luckily, I haven't had big issues with bugs in mine, but I think that's mostly because I use it for coffee, and I try to sip it down quickly.
There are lots of great bargains out there! I just got a "new" external-frame pack yesterday for $30 that I can't wait to try out. With a little patience and skill, there are amazing deals to be found!
@@WanderingSwitchback .. always fun to try "new" gear!
A great video, thanks! Backcountry Foodie, I'm surmising these are recipes that you cook; then do you dehydrate the food? I saw you had little sealed pouches. What type are those? I really liked the Baleaf pants, they look really flattering. I bought another brand from Amazon for about that price point recommended by a friend, but I don't like the wider leg boot cut that they have. Crocs can be really dangerous, I only use mine as camp shoes now. A few years ago I caught my foot under the door of a cabinet in the kitchen a couple years back and my legs pinwheeled across the kitchen floor like a cartoon, then I took a header into the dining room ending up with one arm around the doorway and my head and body on the other side. Then a few months later I fell again wearing them so they are retired to only camp shoes or if I need something after paddling on the water.
Thanks Zafira!
Backcountry Foodie's recipes are all putting together ingredients that are already freeze-dried or dehydrated, so there is no cooking involved, only rehydrating. Some you need to buy freeze-dried stuff for, and some I've used ingredients I've dehydrated myself. A lot of the ingredients are things you can buy at any grocery store, but there are a few specialty ingredients in some recipes. One thing I've started hoarding since I started using her service is packets of parmesan from pizza parlors! They're perfect for a lot of the recipes!
I put all the ingredients together in the Mylar bags and then use a heat sealer (some brands aren't compatible) or iron to seal them up. If I use the heat sealer, I make TWO seals just to be sure. These are the ones in the video (I bought them 3 years ago): amzn.to/3vnDUjU but I found they're really large and don't stand up on their own, so I am switching over to these ones for newer meals: amzn.to/3IYADKO
That sounds like a super scary experience! I've been lucky that they don't slide around at work at all for me, and have been what works best for my 12-16 hour days. They've also been what I've been wearing a lot while my knee has been bad (just hard to tie shoes right now), but I'd imagine if I had experiences like yours, I'd feel the same way! I'm glad you're okay!
@@WanderingSwitchback Thanks so much for the explanation of Backcountry Foodie and the links to the bags. I have the Wallaby bags that you switch over to. I was surprised by how hot/warm they keep the food, even if it's not in a food cozy.
@@zafiradaima That's good to know! I'm just starting to use them- I had a lot of the older bags!
Thank you for sharing 🏕️
Thank you!
Can you share the Amazon package video? I would absolutely love to reuse them but your video link won’t show up to me and I can’t find it on your channel.😣
Here you go! czcams.com/video/FpZSH7hAeMo/video.html
@@WanderingSwitchback thank you!! I love your creative multi-uses for one piece of “gear” … Definitely had a couple moments of “Now why didn’t I think of that?!”
U R kewl. 🤓
Glad I subscribed.
Where (approximately) are you based?
Thank you! Welcome aboard! I'm on the West Coast, so access to lots of gorgeous places. 🙂
Not one item on here is as you said budget gear.
If free isn't budget enough for you, not sure what to tell ya. 🙂
lol you ok guy? 60 dollar tent and a smart water bottle should be ok. No?
