I have the same pack size XS so it comes down to 55L I believe. For an overnight trip, I usually remove the head to save some weight. I have a 3L bladder but I also like to have an extra bottle to mix electrolytes if I am going on a strenuous hike.
but then you also need to bring a filter, and you don't know what could happen and you might miss or not reach a water spot. I'd personally pack in electrolytes also
I recommend the osprey water reservoir because it has a plastic plate. I can usually get it in even after half filling my bag but overall I just don’t fight it as much as one without the plate
Quick way to improve packing with the tent, place the tent poles in the backpack outside the tent bag (vertically). This way you can fill the tent in the pack horizontally closer to the spine shifting the weight noticably.
What would you suggest for someone just starting out? I’m moving from Long Island,NY which is pretty flat and just as it suggests in its name an island, and I’m moving to Denver,CO. I really want to get into hiking and camping, I spent my childhood summers camping in Wesley island state park in the 1000 islands (NY) and winters skiing at Bolton valley in Vermont but it’s been over 20yrs since I went camping and 15 since I’ve skied. I want to explore and experience nature’s beauty and maybe one day even climb one of the 14er’s. Much thanks in advance.
Wow; I pack so differently to this. In the military we taught to pack heavy items up high. The single heaviest item is often the tent /shelter. I use a 35 litre pack with two 2.5 litre pockets either side and a 5 litre mesh pocket on the front. Everything fits in the pack / pockets without anything hanging off. Quilt goes at the bottom followed by my thermal mattress. That is topped by clothing and my ditty bag with food and cook system sitting above. Last, my tent on the top. Water bottles go in the side pockets with water filtration. Tent poles, tent pegs, first aid, toilet stuff and waterproofs/ gloves / hat all fit into the mesh front pocket. In the summer I can get away with even less.
@@SamuelGarcia-rf4thhey, if it work it works, but moving that weight to the sides or on top is what is more desired often times. When you have weight further away, you are changing your bodies natural cadence of walking, straining yourself more than you need to whereas if you imagine all the heavy items against your spine and high up, your ability to rotate, turn around, etc won’t be as strained. But there’s no hard and fast rules here, especially for shorter hikes. I’m accustomed to 55+ lbs 2-5 day trips, so it’s a bit more important to be conscious for that, just for comfort and sustain. Not so much for less than ~30lbs and less than 2 days. Hope that helps!
@@SamuelGarcia-rf4th I’m not criticizing, I’m trying to help. I was US Army Infantry for 22 years, and had to ruck long distances. The heavier items go towards the top, and closer to your back. A much more comfortable carry. The same applies for civilian backpacking, hiking. There’s a video out there that explains the physics of it. It’s brilliant, but I can’t find it for some reason.
@@ea1powerthey have a ton of extra nylon bags. I'd bet that adds up to close to a pound if not more on their own. Emergency bivies are unneeded when you have a tent. An emergency blanket is 5 oz lighter. Their cook kit is extremely overkill possibly pounds heavier than what's needed just to boil water. Also nalgenes are way overkill unless in winter and empty liter nalgenes is 8 oz a liter and half is even more. And why have those if you have a water blatter. I take a ton of luxury items ( chair, DSLR and lenses, etc. But managing the weight of organization items and basics is key to being able to bring those luxury items and not offset your normal base weight. Both of these packs have pounds of extra nothing ( nylon and plastic items) and the fact that it's being used as a beginner guide is why I commented and I think it's a bad guide .
To be honest. Water bladders can be convenient for short trips but for long ones they suck in so many ways like refilling them is a hassle and they weigh a lot. Oh also they can leak which has happened to me. I wouldn't ever recommend them.
Bottles used for dirty water if necessary, and the water filtration system won’t seem “unnecessary” if you get lost and end up in the desert longer than you planned 🙄
@@rachel705 Fair point Rachel it just seems that out of the three, the bladder would be overkill obviously not the water filtration system like you're assuming I mean geesh!
Bladder is too keep hydrated while moving. wide mouth Bottles are annoying to reach and drink from on the move also for non water drinks at camp that can’t go into a bladder like electrolytes etc. Filtration system…. Obviously to filter water for use
Camelback impossible to pack at the end? Anyone and everyone with military service or any training from friends is laughing at you. It goes on top, last
These guys packing heavy they are probably much better at this than me but what I would have for one night is a tent, sleeping bag ,2 liters of water, a lighter and some food
Easy to say that now but it sounds like you have nothing to actually keep you safe if something goes wrong. You gonna drink boiled water the entire time out there? No first aid? No sleeping pad? No rain gear? No warmer clothes for when the temp drops at night?

its really great to be prepared :)
THE HOBO SONG (C)2006
Over here in the northeast, I’d never put my tent on the outside of my pack. It would catch a branch and tear within the first mile
This is so helpful because I’m planning a 2 night trip with a couple first time backpackers and they need a guide lol
What size are your packs. Looks like a half week trip
It won't be much more if it's a half week trip. Just more food, but most things are the same
Tbh, its probably better to pack like your trip will be longer. That way if anything goes wrong, youre not screwed
A half week trip would just have more socks undies and food. Really not much difference
Simple idea lost on so many people...
@@klaraklabel8846
My back hurts from just watching this
It doesn't hurt your back because the weight is on your hips.
it's great to be prepared :)
Those packs look light 😂
Some backpackers pack way too much stuff. Always research your water refill spots you're not lugging 3 liters everywhere.
but then you also need to bring a filter, and you don't know what could happen and you might miss or not reach a water spot. I'd personally pack in electrolytes also
OMG this is so helpful I’m saving this.
I recommend the osprey water reservoir because it has a plastic plate. I can usually get it in even after half filling my bag but overall I just don’t fight it as much as one without the plate
Doesn't using a water reservoir get annoying when you need to filter water?
@@fvrrest1910that’s what the Nalgene is for. You should always have some sort of way to hold fluids outside of your bladder
mhm you guys are so ultralight for an overnight no even laces in both your pairs of sandals,keep each other warm out there and sweet dreams.

I don’t even hike but enjoy watching these💀
What size are the backpacks ?
You NEVER strap your tent to the bottom of the pack. EVER. It just screams "I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING"! Great short vid otherwise though. LOL.
Can you explain why? Me and my friends do it all the time. I feel that’s what those cinch straps are there for…

What sandals are u wearing?
No cat hole trowel?
What brand of bag do you use I am using a osprey
Just a question how do you brush your teeth on a hike?
My UL eyes are crying
They’ll get to that path soon. Maybe after a few 3 nighters
What is UL?
Edit: oh, it's probably short for ultralight
What trekking poles are you using?
these bags are just so expensive
What brand backpacks are these?
"Mom can we watch Thruhikers?!"
"No we have Thruhikers at home..."
I like that bag, what brand is your bag?
it's an osprey not sure the model tho
How heavy was it ?
Wait until your in rain storm and the back pack is know a Spong
0:06
Where you buy the backpack 🎒?
Are they low alpine bags ?
Where do you keep the beer?
What brand of backpack do you have
Its a osprey
Hey! Where are your khaki hiking shorts from? I’m looking for a pair of good hiking shorts :)
They’re from REI! The rei Trailmade shorts
What kinda backpacks are those?
Any first aid kit?
How heavy are these?
What brand of back pack do you habe
Its called osprey
What pack is that?
What pack do you have
You are very skilled . Have you ever thought about the military ?
Where can i get that bag?
The brand name is osprey
Omg how useful! What bags are you using and which do you recommend?
But the footware wasn't important 😂😂😂
Are those 55 L packs. 65?
There is sooo much extra weight here. I think you guys would benefit from seeing what others do here. And I'm not even talking to ultra light stuff.
Like what? What would you exclude? I think it looks reasonable, just not UL-gear
This is a well planned and concise pack with a few extra safety items and water, nothing wrong there!
Maybe they enjoy some more comfort during their hike
personally, for over nights or 2 nighters, I have no problem packing luxuries and extra items. I see nothing wrong here
@@ea1powerthey have a ton of extra nylon bags. I'd bet that adds up to close to a pound if not more on their own. Emergency bivies are unneeded when you have a tent.

Does no one actually bring a first aid bleeder kit? I swear I’ve never seen one in these videos
What bags are you using? And what camp shoes do you like?
Osprey aura and Atmos 65 and teva universals!
Osprey is the best!! I’ve used many and that is my favorite for overnight bags.
Plz explain a water bladder
Plastic bag filled with water, hose attached. hose sticks out of backpack, you suck on end of hose, you get water
To be honest. Water bladders can be convenient for short trips but for long ones they suck in so many ways like refilling them is a hassle and they weigh a lot. Oh also they can leak which has happened to me. I wouldn't ever recommend them.
@@samanthabrittain8680yeah they suck
Hmmmmm.... it's definitely a way of packing for a one nighter
Do yall ever bring alcohol to get lit when yall are camping 😂🥳
What pack is that
Looks like the osprey aether
Yes. Why?
You talk waaaay too fast.. Put tent INSIDE of pack!!
What backpack is that? And why have a bladder, a bottle and a filtration system, seems like overkill.
