My most important weight saver is that I finally admitted that I suck at photography. I paid thousands of dollars (well, euros) for lenses, drones and action cams until I discovered I can also make photos nobody cares about with my IPhone. Saves me a lot of kilos and time.
100% where im at too. Im an awful videographer, and just rely on my phone
Love to see you're still griwin the channel! Have fun in 2025!
Still having a blast doing it
Great video, switching to SmartWater bottles was a big shift in my mindset as well.
I bet its been the catalyst for a lot of folks
Thanks!
Big thanks to you as well! 🥰
@ love your content if not your team.🤣🤣🤣🤣
I liked the double eye look 🙃
Haha, i bet you did!
I think gravity style filters are better than squeeze style ones. I use the Hydroblu Versa Flow filter in combination with the CNOC 2L bladder for my gravity system. Hardly heavier than a lot of squeeze systems available and longer lasting (no bursting bladders)
i just got a Life Straw 3 lite drip system. Wanted to try something other than the Sawyer squeeze.
Squeeze filters can be used as gravity filters with a simple adapter.
Love high volume gravity filters for base camp and group trips. Nothing beats a katadyn befree in my shoulder pocket while I'm solo and on the move!
@@roberttrinies7698 The Hydroblu Versaflow doesn't even need an adapter and it is lighter than the Sawyer Squeeze at similar flow rate and half the price
Gravity setups are fine for in camp.. But on trail, they're quite inconvenient in my experience. I like the speed of my Platypus filter. I can stop, scoop water, and filter a liter in under a minute, and I like having that option.
Local Edm viewer here. Love the channel and of course your passion for the Oil! I have been interested in both the new ZenBivy Ultralight and a UGQ Bandit quilt over the last 6 months. I've never seen or touch either...which makes ordering online from the US always risky. Do you have any suggestions on which direction I should go based on typical temperatures in the Cdn Rockies here from May-Sept?? I am usually a pretty cold sleeper. Also how about quality of construction?
In terms of quality you cant go wrong either way. Zenbivy setups are definitely a little more posh in terms of materials, and their soft texture, which does make them a bit heavier then a UGQ quilt.
For temperatures, my UGQ quilt is a 20F (-7C) and its plenty warm for spring, fall, summer.
This summer I used a 30F zenbivy setup (0C) all summer and into the fall. The 10F zenbivy setup would definitely be a closer comparison to the 20F UGQ in terms of versatility getting into spring and fall, and be more ideal for a cold sleeper

youre too kind
What?! The toothbrush didn’t even make the list!!!!!
It was close. But like the flames, just never close enough.
@ oooooooh. Ouch!
