Great video. Down to the honest point everytime. Thats how it must be. When i was in the last grade in primary school we had what would probably be translated as field school. It was held over a weekend. It was like a outing and only once and when in the last grade. We where hiking i think we took water with us as we didnt go for a far hike . We wouldve probably not got lost if the field ranger had a compass. We walked in circle for 2 to 3 times ans then used a different road which led us back to camp. If we would get lost again,the ranger would radio in for the other rangers to come get us. We learned few basic stuff but you where told and shown. Not really given chance to practise. So high five to schools that actually have scouts. Im honestly thankful for your effort corporal and im subbed with few channels. Your and andrews channels i watch the most. Thanks
As an ultra-light hiker, I looked closely at your set up. You are NOT poorly weighted at all. “Base” weight is subjective, really. Shelter, pack, sleep system is the BARE minimum of what’s called base weight. You can pull together a sub 8 lb set up easily. BUT, that counts nothing else! I look at a set up as being EVERYTHING you will be carrying, minus water/food. That is the set weight you have. To do a sub 15 lbs is again, doable. My 4 day set up, everything plus food and 2 liters of water, 24-25 lbs. im happy with that. Could I get it lighter? Yup. I could knock 2-3 lbs, but then you’re missing stuff you would like. So, you weights are not bad at all. Keep up the good work, brother!!
@@douglasfoley2060 yup, I can day hike with a pack down to 4-5, with minor food, .7 Liter of water with tablets, and do ok. But, I’ll be honest, I do like sleeping comfortable. At the weights I listed, I DEFINITELY have comfort items. ( pillow, pad and foam pad, etc) those of use who regularly do sub 10 are considered ultralight hikers. The best part? So many options of how low you can, or want, to go. I’m glad you’ve dialed your base to its best for you and your hike!! Nail some trails!!🏔🏔
@@hiramhaji7813 I don’t need to measure it, I get women to do that for me. I just simply said, “you’re not a real lightweight hiker, my pack is 5 pounds tops.”
I was just saying the same thing, to get the bare minimum minus food or any extra clothing 20 25 lb base, I've gotten a little less than 20 just because I switched some stuff to Titanium but it's small amounts here and there
Knew an old man that bird hunted and always wore a wool vest. He carried a pack of lucky strikes in one of the pockets for many years after he had quit smoking...almost 20yrs later. He carried them because he had started a fire in an emergency with a couple old dried out cigarettes using the paper and the crushed to powder dry tobacco to hold an ember.
I always appreciated these videos of yours. Yes, I can carry a 70 L pack. Do I want to... nope. I have spent years using packs and my go-to is a small pack and my favorite haversack. All my gear is tried and true. Much of honing my pack into the best it can be stems from what you teach.
I'm beating my TH-cam notification to watch here again. Glad I'm on your email list. It's much more dependable than YT's notification functionality hands down.
Sorry I’m late to the party, but spent Sunday with my oldest and dearest friend (best buds over 60 years) who is battling pancreatic cancer. He will always come first. Having said that, thanks Corp for demonstrating new equipment, the poncho is pretty cool and is multi functional. Me my sons and grandsons all appreciate your down to earth no nonsense demonstrations and explanations of situations and how to deal with them as well as your honest opinions of equipment and why you do or don’t think it may work. These 20+/- minutes every Sunday are fanfreakintastic! As always stay frosty AF👍
Because of deer ticks, I carry a bug net inner tent at a minimum. I went with the kuiu summit refuge 3, its got tons of room, I can put it in a molle canteen case for storage. After using a couple USGI ponchos over top of it for wind and rain I decided to buy the outer tent from kuiu as well, its lighter, bigger, and packs smaller than 2 ponchos. The outer tent packs into a canteen case as well. Before the deer tick invasion (back when things were normal) I slept in minimalist camps all the time. Great video, brings back memories.
I long distance hike while hunting, generally in an off-again/on-again swamp, South Louisiana. Everything you’re carrying is spot on as per use, weight, adaptability. I also carry a small first aid kit- Israeli trauma bandage, tourniquet, quick-clot sponge, and disinfectant (isopropyl alcohol). Also, 1 concentrated bleach tablets from laundry area in a small zip lock bag. I almost always fabricate/carve a walking stick- snakes are a real problem.
The meat fork is pretty solid. I loved this video. Its great to call out that road flare trick because a lot of people that aren't into camping, hiking, whatever might need to use that if they have to deal with the car breaking down in a remote area.
I like the idea of the headlamp being chargeable and batteries. That’s something I need to get instead of just my charging lamps. Might not be able to charge from a solar panel etc. So rechargeable and battery option is great. Thanks for sharing brother
I'm 56 . Since I was a kid I've eaten ravioli , beefaroni , spaghettios , beans , ect from the can cold . I still do . At work ...too much competition for a microwave .
Your best survival tool is between your ears. I've heard it said that you will always run out of room in your pack but never run out of room in your mind. If it were a survival situation instead of an overnight planned trip that makes a big difference. The lid from the ravioli becomes your cutting tool, the label is fire tinder and the can your container to boil water in... Nice job on the video.
Well, I’m glad you don’t have any mosquitoes. Was kinda interested in the poncho, but couldn’t get the name. Always enjoy your videos with the common sense approach.
A lot of ultra light hikers will prepare their freeze-dried food through a process called cold soaking. They will put their freeze-dried meal in a container with water in the morning and pack it through out the day until they are ready to eat it, by that time the meal will be rehydrated.
I like pulling up to the edge of the lake and having a little generator going and a good little fish camp setup, but there’s nothing like backpacking in and camping with minimal gear 🤙 best part about hitting the trail is losing cell service and being free for a bit
Where I live the temps go down to -30 celcius. People rarely have the appropriate equipement with them to pass the night or even a few hours in case of a sudden emergency. Very few people survive. That being said, on a positve note, I really enjoy your videos Sir. Take care !
To me there is a big difference in carrying emergency gear for an unplanned event that causes me to stay overnight than for a prolonged trip. If I am going hiking for some distance, I would carry the appropriate gear just as I would if traveling on the side-by-side. I like my comfort and will take the most comfortable items that I can safely carry. There's nothing wrong about any of those as long as I take the correct gear and know how to use it. I really hope that at some time in the future you and Dave can make videos without the veiled references to each other. There is room for both of you in my world and I do not think that I am alone in that sentiment. I have watched you for years, just as I have him. Carry on, good sir!!
Love these minimal camp vids. These are my favorite. I will splurge on sleep comfort though. Good sleep is life for longer terms in the woods . Thanks Corporal.
Again, the Corporal talks and teaches basics so basically, no high tec needed. I suppose we all need to be aware of where we are going whilst hiking and in what sort of area and weather conditions. Always adapt your load for the area, weather and season. Thank you Corporal. PS, as an Englishman living in the Netherlands for 6 years i can not find Ravioli in a tin anywhere, the Dutch just do not do it. In the UK the brand made Ravioli, Spaghetti, Macaroni, Beans and other tinned foodstuffs, i really miss them now after seeing your tin on this video.
One thing e used to do with LRRP rations (freeze dried) was add the water, roll the bag up and seal. Place in cargo pocket or inside jacket and continue patrolling/walking. Later when stopping to eat it was near body temperature. De Oppresso Liber
When i was a cadet we were given old rations Mutton Granules which could be eaten cold as a crunch, rather like eating Vesta direct from the packet. It was not bad but you needed to drink a lot of water along with it. We survived lol.
Great video. Poncho looks like shelter option but agreed that at that length I could see me getting too heated. Great instruction and knowledge. Keep up the incredible work!
Great video mate All, the best from the UK. Just came back from hiking in the North of England. Your never alone no matter how hard you try. Sometimes you can carry nothing at all.. if you get into trouble, wait 5 minutes and some one will turn up. 😂
The ravioli is good, but I prefer the Spaghetti O’s if I need it right from the can. I am glad to finally see a can of Chef Boy Ardee because I was thinking I was just weird for thinking it was a good option since it checks all the boxes
Excellent advice as always. Living in a temperate rainforest environment, where it can rain anytime of the year, we go into the bush prepared to get wet, and I mean wet. Starting a fire may be difficult in an emergency situation, due to extremely wet wood. Thats why I always carry my Trangia alcohol burner, with a 300ml/10 oz bottle of denatured alcohol. Weight of Trangia alcohol burner: 115g/4 oz. Fuel bottle weight: 95g/3.4 oz. Weight of alcohol: 300ml/10 oz. Total weight for all items is: 17.4 ounces, just over 1 lb. This will decrease as you use up the alcohol in the stove. This could be a life saver. My Trangia has never let me down and I'll always have it in my backpack, even on day hikes.
I'm 6ft 227lbs and I'm fit, so carrying this much weight is a breeze! Good video as always! Thank you!❤ Btw, I love the new small knife! I'll look that up! Found it! $28.39 on ebay!
This is a true blue minimal 10 C+ load out with solid proof of its efficacy. The appropriate size haversack or small pack loadout is the way to go for one nighters. When I lived in Greece that's all I carried on my travels, especially when island hopping. But for overnighters out in the country my friends and I would visit the waterfall- a modern day Shan-gri-la out in the middle of nowhere, so we carried full sized packs. (Incidentally, the C+ refers to Calories- an 11th item, in the form of food.)
Always a Great Knowledgeable video!! People try to hold you on every word you say. Ridiculous!!! Love your content and so glad again for the info!! CC❤
Once again, I missed the cup and bottle set even though I looked this morning. I'm sure I'll get one eventually. Happy for you that the stuff is flying off the shelves.
If anyone is on the fence about going to the Buckeye/Corporal class in May…I would encourage you to go!! I went the 1st week of April great weekend, great group of people. Even if you’re experienced in this type of thing.. you will learn something!!
I like that you are candid and tell it the way it is. Reality, everyone should be ready to face it. You are preparing the new subscribers, the old ones are already aware from years of information from your videos.
I always had your videos pop up on my feed but for the last few months you’ve disappeared. I always thought you were just making it up but I missed so many videos because of it 🤣
I just got this exact poncho last week! It is a bit oversize but the added benefit of multi use as a shelter makes this a good trade off. Great video as always! Thanks!
Thanks for taking your time to teach and instruct us! As always, GREAT Video! I have experienced the whole "Rain gear melt down" before, wear it to keep dry from the rain and end up wetter. Love that you are a realist and working and living by the KISS method to daily life/outdoors living. Disposable butane lighters and road flares as part of your kit give more meaning to the phrase "Work Smarter not Harder". Again thank you for your videos and am looking forward to the next one!
I Love your videos. I appreciate that you take the time to teach from an experience standpoint without making it complicated. I've learned so much watching you through the years. 😊❤
Gorilla tape, for me, is a repair tool... fixing a tear in tarps or clothing. I have several 'Spool Tools'... they are great. Bank line on one, Fire Paracord on another, etc. The Mini-Bic fits in perfectly. Best way ive found to carry cordage. Yes, I've made my own, but I like these.
Another point in favor of the canned food. When you eat the food, the can can be used for other things. Lost your bushpot? Use the empty can. Need a signalling mirror and don't have one? The lid is nice and shiny, as is the bottom of the can if you haven't used it for a bush pot. Heck, i've even used the lid of a tin can as an improvised knife. Would not recommend it, as it's easy to cut yourself. But if you are lacking anything else, that lid is a knife of sorts.
Been eating Beanie-Wienies and Ravioli cold from the can for most of my life. During the hot summers out in the woods I actually prefer 'em that way. Great video.
That cape flip with the trench coat cracked me up. Made me think of Grandma's boy.. It wouldn't be too loud if you had robot ears 😂 perfect addition to the intro 😂😂😂
Hey Kelly, you have all the right ingredients, as far as the weight it's good to pack the bag and walk around the block and see how much you can handle. I would like to see your take on an INCH bag, a lot of us might be needing that. We have to survive the zombie apocalypse coming across the border at the same time.

In certain situations, cold canned food is a welcomed gourmet meal. Good video, Sir.
You have given us a lot of great information, some simple and some never talked about anywhere else, such as prickly heat. thank you and keep safe.
I'm 56 . Since I was a kid I've eaten ravioli , beefaroni , spaghettios , beans , ect from the can cold . I still do . At work ...too much competition for a microwave .
Nothing wrong with cold ravioli or spam. Great video, Corporal!
Good tips as always, thanks for the entertainment, knowledge and consistency.

Camping doesn’t have to be complicated like some people think it is. Sometimes less is more.
some like to sell gimmick bs to keep their company going...........
Never boring love it always new ideas thank-you
Oh, you bring back memories with that Ravioli. That was my go to quick meal in the barracks. no cooking, just out of the can, ravioli.

Sometimes all the latest and greatest new gadgets are just extra weight. Great way to show how to get by with little as possible.
Great video as always Cpl. Thank you!
The Scrambled Eggs ad Spam would have been great for breakfast. Great spot for a temp shelter set up. Enjoyed the video. Thanks for all you do.
Once again, I missed the cup and bottle set even though I looked this morning. I'm sure I'll get one eventually. Happy for you that the stuff is flying off the shelves.
If anyone is on the fence about going to the Buckeye/Corporal class in May…I would encourage you to go!!
I went the 1st week of April great weekend, great group of people. Even if you’re experienced in this type of thing.. you will learn something!!
Great list!! I carry to much of things I dont use!!! So I have been dropping unnecessary gear lately!! This all great items!!
I like that you are candid and tell it the way it is. Reality, everyone should be ready to face it. You are preparing the new subscribers, the old ones are already aware from years of information from your videos.
Good stuff as always. Liked the points you brought up at the end.
Excellent. I don't hesitate to eat food from a can. I need to re-stock my day pack with emergency food. The flare is a great idea.
Great video thanks for sharing 🍻👍
I always had your videos pop up on my feed but for the last few months you’ve disappeared. I always thought you were just making it up but I missed so many videos because of it 🤣
I’d be interested in seeing a comparison with this and the cape shelter from OneWind. Love the scenario and the light weight gear.
When I watch videos of you in the woods, all my brain keeps screaming is TICK'S! LOL. If I walk in my well maintained yard, I am covered in tick's.
I just got this exact poncho last week! It is a bit oversize but the added benefit of multi use as a shelter makes this a good trade off. Great video as always! Thanks!
Starting a fire like Steve! Lol
One of my favorite brands
Thanks for taking your time to teach and instruct us! As always, GREAT Video! I have experienced the whole "Rain gear melt down" before, wear it to keep dry from the rain and end up wetter. Love that you are a realist and working and living by the KISS method to daily life/outdoors living. Disposable butane lighters and road flares as part of your kit give more meaning to the phrase "Work Smarter not Harder". Again thank you for your videos and am looking forward to the next one!
I Love your videos. I appreciate that you take the time to teach from an experience standpoint without making it complicated. I've learned so much watching you through the years. 😊❤
Bravo corporal, thanks.
Thank you another Great Video! I have 2 of those poucho they work well for their porpose
Gorilla tape, for me, is a repair tool... fixing a tear in tarps or clothing.
I have several 'Spool Tools'... they are great. Bank line on one, Fire Paracord on another, etc. The Mini-Bic fits in perfectly. Best way ive found to carry cordage. Yes, I've made my own, but I like these.
I use cheap poly tarps near fire and duct tape is a must for me.
Best TH-camr with short clean cut knowledge . Thank you brother
As always, a step above and ahead of the pack Shawn; keep doing what you do.
Thanks Shawn & stay safe.
Great video, Love the basics. Thanks Corporal.
you forgot the most important item...coffee! great video boss!
Great video !! My style of gear ❤❤❤ light n fast
Corp, you are the man bro. Great video. Thank you!

Looks like a good poncho.
I miss the little bottles of Tabasco that came in mre's
Nalgene makes very small bottles that you can fill with your preferred hot sauce. It's not the official little bottles but it works.
Outstanding as always!!
Awesome video Shawn!!
Great video.
Love your channel
A great common sense approach to the minimum for survival equipment.
Thank you again.
Hey Shawn, great tips! Thanks for sharing…🇺🇸
Excellent Video, very informative, it was like having a conversation with an older brother that wanted to share his knowledge. Thank Corporal
Been eating Beanie-Wienies and Ravioli cold from the can for most of my life. During the hot summers out in the woods I actually prefer 'em that way. Great video.
Very informative, great instructor, thank you.
That cape flip with the trench coat cracked me up. Made me think of Grandma's boy.. It wouldn't be too loud if you had robot ears 😂 perfect addition to the intro 😂😂😂
Best part of the week!
Outstanding! Keep up the great work. This is the way.
Thanks for video. Have a safe and productive week sir
Hey Kelly, you have all the right ingredients, as far as the weight it's good to pack the bag and walk around the block and see how much you can handle. I would like to see your take on an INCH bag, a lot of us might be needing that. We have to survive the zombie apocalypse coming across the border at the same time.
check out alton good's new foam mat, they do it in a nice green and its a bit more compact.
Great video. Something to be said for mobility.
Awesome knowledge drop ty kell
