Sorry about the bad audio levels, I will do a better job next time. Thanks again Chuckles for coming on the pod!

Good gear video

I have done several thru hikes and food is the one thing I always spent way more money than planned but for me I needed it.I carried a lot of lunch meat, pepperoni,salami lasts in a pack,If you want to save money stay out of towns and don't use shuttles walk or hitch a ride and the AT is doable in four months .The PCT is more money expect two hundred dollar motel rooms and food twice as much and you will need more gear and it wears out faster but the PCT is by far the best of the trails.

Wow ! That is a lot of money!

I just can’t imagine your food costs 😮 What kind of restaurants are you eating at? Not a Subway or McDonald’s.

Thanks for sharing the budget details for your 2024 AT thru-hike. I appreciate your candor and how realistic you are. It was interesting to hear about Resupply Frequency and how longer carries may help reduce cost. And sometimes you just need some "comfort food" - on trail or at home. 😉

sounds about right, I platinum blazed on my AT adventure with no regrets.

So you're not going to discuss the majority of the cost of your trip. This video is literally just hey I went to McDonalds, I can't tell you how much I paid for the food but they sell the drinks at .07c per liter. Why even make it?

The key word you said... having fun

Great gear choices. Excellent video. New follower here. Crow✌️

10/10 video

This is interesting, but wow, that's some expensive food. I'm I the EU though, maybe it's pricier there!

Well thought-out kit. I have been using the Aeon Li for 4+ years. Has worked great, I did have to make one repair at the peak - dyneema started to separate in one spot. I like the small footprint - a benefit when sites are hard to come by. You will want more water capacity for the PCT - at least 3L will be needed in a few sections. I have had good luck with the BeFree. I don't baby it, but I do try to clean it as often as possible.

Would definitely like to hear about the financial part

Thanks for the video. This is great. Can you tell me exactly which power bank you have? I think you said it was 30,000 mah.

Thanks for sharing man!

I'm doing the PCT in 2025, also! Hope to see you on trail!

Is this correct? Your clothing was made up of shorts, sun hoody, 2 pair socks, wind pants, puffy or fleece, rain jacket and shoes. Is that everything?

Thanks mate, did you add those floor straps yourself or does the tent come with them already installed?

All the way to Maine this time buddy! Hope to see you at trail days

Good luck on your hike. I did 1000 miles of the PCT. Dumped the gossamer pad first.

Friday, February 23rd: Thank-you for the information. Happy Trails! Ross08

'promo sm' 😏

Sunday, February 18th: Good luck! Here's wishing you success! Happy Trails! Ross08

Get it 🤙 happy trails

Monday, February 05th: Most power banks are Anker or Nitecore; trail proven, especially when cold. Test yours at home outside at night and see if it still functions. Happy Trails! Ross08

Maybe I missed it but have you announced your departure date?

Walnuts have a lot of calories and fat. A trail mix with walnuts and dried fruit can keep you going a long time.

Monday, January 29th: Trail food is determined mostly by availability and 'hiker hunger'; many items consumed on Trail are not eaten at home. Happy Trails!

´It´s just a walk in the woods´ That is very funny!

Enjoy!

👍 enjoy it It’s the best decision you can make

Great set up -jealous of your base weight but I find it hard in the colder weather starting out....hope to get it down some as I head down the trail. Hope to see you out there!

Good luck when is your start date?

Did that 45 years ago Tx to Pa. Oct Rain. Cold.

and that's the last we heard of him.

Pro tip: Turmeric can help reduce inflammation. One study found that taking turmeric extract three times daily was comparable to taking a 1,200-milligram dose of ibuprofen daily. It also has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral properties, so def worth using on trail. Some people get stomach upsets from high amounts of turmeric though so test ahead of time. Drinking lots of water and taking a cold water dip also helps reduce inflammation and muscle recovery.

Cool just subbed

I'm also planning to hike the triple crown, any advice would be appreciated

Well I met many hikers with your setup and you will fly for sure. Just be careful when severe weather hits. I knew a hiker like you that hiked 35 miles in the Smokies by accident. There wasn't enough room for him so he just kept hiking till he found one much later in. So if you start early you will not have this problem but if you hike in a crowd it could prove challenging. Just be prepared.

Why the FBombs? It does not help anything.

No hood, maybe light weight balaclava for sleep, neck, ears head, good list video

Just an unusual video. Pay no attention to the comments, hike your hike. I subscribed, good luck.

Not sure the AT would be for you guys. But i would follow you could be interesting.

It seems most if not all post hike reviews I've seen who set out with one of these "b-free" filters ends up switching out to a Sawyer.....

Never been backpacking, planning on going this year. Thanks for the vid and ideas!

Hey Thanks aground cloth that folding pad and the air mattress has always worked for me. And it's worth the carrying

Good luck and have a blast!

Bonjour! Super la liste 😊 ! Et très bonne idée le gant avec la housse du versalite! Très bonne année 🌞🏕🍃!
