Hi Paul, I know you're obsessed with low weight and that's an admirable pursuit, but, if you're swapping out a multi functional SAK for a single function Opinel, you're taking it a bit far.
What if you need tweezers or a toothpick ? A screwdriver for your tripod ? Even a can opener ? It's a false economy....
He edits his videos perfect, no bullshit, no stupid music, straight business
And most importantly, he uses metric system.
Bill Oddy Yorkshire folk are this way ☺️ I'm one
hes straight to point .good vid fella
And all the camera angles!

U have a gift of lifting people out of down, always feel better after watching thank u Paul.
I totally agree! I'm in a 'down' spell at the moment and have been binge watching Paul's vids. They really lift me. Give hope again. Hope you're feeling a bit better, Damien.
Hello Paul from NZ. I like your choice of pack, I have the same I am in the mountains over 40 times a year from one day tramps to 5 day tramps (we call it tramping not hiking). The pack is very light and easy on the back. I carry up to and over 15kg depending on how many days I'm in the mountains. I think that your videos are one of the best no nonsense on TH-cam . I have had over 50 years in the mountains 9 Years as a guide and I'm still out there doing it. So I know that you know what you are talking about. Well done. Keep the videos coming. 😀
First camping trip next saturday and I didn't have a clue. I've watched so many of your videos now and now I feel excited. Great videos. Straight to the point. Thank you and keep them coming
Excellent video as always Paul, I'm taking all this in, and even though I'm well into my 50's I'm slowly getting my gear together with the help of your tips and reviews, I'll be out there wild camping on my own soon, thanks for sharing!
For someone new to trekking/wild camping like myself this is a brilliant video. Thank you Paul.
As a Scot I never thought I would see a bin bag worn as a quilt😜
How are you a Scot if you can't spell Kilt ??
ahyesh i sure do like sleeping in a plastic bag
Another expertly done video Paul, look forward to seeing more of the kilt! Lol! Am liking that As Tucas blanket of yours. Cheers 👍👍👍
Really good detail on excellent kit recommendations that you have obviously tailored over some time for the challenges of the UK's likely wet and windy weather. Thank you.
Its just the price with those dehydrated meals that puts me off. I'd want a takeaway level meal for that price lol. I'd rather take a pasta-n-sauce packet for 50p but each to their own
You can make your own, that’s what I do. Dehydrated food from the bulk section at grocery store, store a breakfast, lunch and dinner in a gallon bag. If you want to be extra light you can use the food bag from those backpacking meals, the bag is very strong can handle boiling water, cleans out easily.
@@zeshanhm Dehydrated isn't the same as freeze dried - those Summit to Eat meals are freeze dried which is expensive to make, they're more nutritous than dehyrdrated meals hence why they're popular with back packers.
Amazed at how much fits into that pack!! I’ve had my eye on this pack and I think this sealed the deal for me. Thanks!
It's a great pack. Thanks for watching mate and taking time to comment.
Something a little different in my new video if you're interested. A bit of woodland camping.
th-cam.com/video/cFkKjNkJmLQ/w-d-xo.html
Superb videos - loved the hills for many years but amazingly only just starting to research wild camping and getting a list of gear together. The amount of kit available is overwhelming so videos like this are so helpful. Current deliberations include which stove, which water purification and powering/recharging phone. And realising that I’ll eventually have multiple tents, bags and other kit!
That's an impressive load out, Paul. Its always the food that adds the weight. Some great gear in there. Enjoy your 3 days out on the trail.
Wow! I really like that titanium pot with the nested mugs. Haven’t seen that before and looks very nice. Love how the two mugs can combine to form a double wall mug - very cool.
9 days wild camping soon and this video has been so helpful!
Thanks Paul. Nice video and great kit selection I’d say. I’ll check out the sleeping quilt thingy which looks interesting.
Wishing you some great trips out this year, Mark
Great video. There’s such a lot of gear out there it’s hard to know which is best. I did a five day hike in summer and didn’t bother with a sleeping bag. I just wore my down jacket and put my feet in the rucksack. Sometimes it’s good to see how little gear you actually need and sometimes it’s good to splash out on a few luxuries. Good luck on your trip.
Good to see you back on YT Paul. As always a good interesting video and some great hints and tips in prep for my Pyrenees trip. Just got the Osprey Atmos 50, not the lightest but comfy and plenty of space as need a bit more capacity when out with the dogs and weight not really a big drama.
He's a squirrel!!! Just amazing. I wouldn't be able to fit all this in such a small bag.
I love Osprey packs. Got one mountain biking hydro-pack, a day hiking pack and my trekking backpack. They're just brilliant, comfortable and super strong. Great video Paul. Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant video! Really clear no nonsense explanations. Just subscribed after watching several of your equally good videos.
Great video. Some very very nice kit there, you’ve got me lusting after that tent and quilt. The soto cup set looks brilliant
Cheers Sarah. I'm really happy with the quilt. It definitely feels different to down but my other bags always get some moisture on most trips. After a couple of days the down goes a bit flat. This will put a stop to the problem. The soto is a nice bit of kit too. Really well engineered
YOU are informative, easy to listen to, and inspiring!! I have learned (and continue to learn) excellent tips that make my experiences much, much better. THANK YOU!!
Thank you very much, great ideas ! I started solo wild camping a year ago. My first trip my pack for 1 night was 18kg and at 5ft and slim, it was shocking. Ive got it down to 13kg now, this video have given me some great ideas to bring it down further. Thanks again !
My gf and I really enjoy your videos! all the way from Detroit Michigan
I've had this pack for nearly 12 months now and it's the best ever! (and I've owned many over the decades)
just came across your channel today. I am loving the videos! Great work keep it going!
Paul, thank you for the great video. I'm 65 and in good shape, but perhaps my days of longer treks are over. You convinced me you can pack quality kit, food and water for a 3 day, 2-3 night trek into a 48-50L pack.
Brilliant to see another As Tucas user! I’ve the older version of the Sestrals quilt and absolutely love mine.
I'm really impressed with the quality and how light it is. It's so versatile too. Thanks for watching.
Very interesting to see how things have evolved since the days I used to take to the wilds back in the 70's and 80's :lol:
Great video, ive been into walking and the outdoors for years but have never had any proper kit or anything for potential emergency's so ive been watching a lot of videos like this recently so this video really helps thanks
You've gone for it there! Interesting kit. Getting to the same place but still on the exos 48. The amount of times been away and not used kit so now its gone or got smaller. Down to 9kg now and can really feel the benefit. Tfs David
Great video! I'm always looking for new kit and ideas, you certainly delivered!
Great 'bag out' video paul. I got frustrated with the lack of camping quilts in the UK, so i bought 3 down blankets from costco at 12 quid a quilt ( they have double the price to buy now ) and had them sewn together. Nice and warm, and only cost 36 quid 😊. Thanks for sharing 😊
This is one of the best full kit reviews I’ve seen for a long time. Love the lightweight performance kit. I’m still undecided on whether to buy a JetBoil Minimo or one like you used...
Brilliant Paul, my Aussie SAS Army days my waist webbing alone weighed 9.5 to 11 kilos, and your only carrying less than a 10kgs er onya back. Great vids and I love seeing new gear too.
Great video. Since watching I have been liaising with As Tucas and put an order in for a quilt today. I told them how I found out about them too.
Hi Paul. I saw your content recently and then again today. I like your content. Good Information. No nonsense. My Wife and I love camping. I can not wait for the weather to get a little warmer so we can go. Extremely cold where we live. Keep up the good videos and we enjoy along with you.
Paul - what a great find. Not sure why your channel got suggested to me but I’ve been loving watching your videos during this time. Keep up the good work - really interesting videos and loving the Lake District as I’m overseas.
An impressively original collection of lightweight kit - well thought out - thanks for sharing...
1st time watcher of your videos, great content, thanks
i wish this man was my uncle..his calm demeanor and confidence makes me feel i could give this a try too
love the stool idea, and the stove looks like it would be a better option for me, will look in to it. glad i watched.
Great presentation.
I'm researching packs to consider. It's a bit of a challenge to figure out the best size of pack to purchase. While I don't want to carry too much weight, I do need to accommodate some larger gear and a few extras like bear spray, firewood saw, heavier sleeping bag as the ground can be very cold, and fishing gear.
Dear, sir! A very big THANK to you for this great and well descriptive lightweight outdoor equipment review and tutorial! You gave me so many new insights about how to put together an attractive and lightweight all necessary for a successful outdoor backpacking hike when staying overnight in nature! I am very thankful for your generous sharing and showing in detail with clarity all your chosen backpacking gear! Wishing you many happy and pleasant hikes! Best wishes and greetings from Sweden!
Thank you. Glad you liked it. By the way your English is excellent. Thanks for watching
Received the gloves and they are fantastic, light, warm and packable, thank you for all your tips!!!
Really good video, your complete pack out list is great. I hope you have good luck with the Soto stove and cook set. The cook set is a little small for me, but I am so used to traveling with a larger group.
Osprey bags are the best ! Love them , durable and functional , they last for years !
Cheers Paul. Taken some good tips for my next cycle tour. All the best mate. Stay safe 👍
Hey Paul , just want to thank you for linking the laser photon tent , managed to pick one up today in the sale from trekkit online for £269.99 down from £444.99 so pretty happy as you can imagine cheers mate , keep the videos coming .
One of the best video/ set of items I have ever seen mate. Like
Wow that kilt looks a game changer for me! Great video
I may have to give those gloves a try! My hands are always freezing and I haven’t found that perfect pair of gloves yet! Those look warm while being not too bulky. Thanks for the vid and ideas! Ps US needs to get on board with that metric system haha I’m sitting here mentally converting everything 🤦♀️😂
Huge fan of the Opinel no.8. A classic!
Thanks for the info, Paul, very help full, I'm off to Chapel en le Froth for a few days tomorrow, hope the weather isn't to bad, one man tent, not as good as yours, but it'll do, bye for now.
It’s clear you have learnt from experience and provide some great practical advice. I bet your Xmas and birthdays are full of new tech. Thanks for the video
I definitely have admirable views on this great top fella this lad is definitely NOT A CAMPING TACKLE TART what he puts on broadcast is extremely exceptional and totally top notch gear for your purchase and I stand by his knowledge and I really appreciate the ways he shows the tactics he has shown and wish him the best of the camping and roving future 😉👍
Great video Paul. Fantastic weight saving. Hopefully you will include the stove on your next trip out . Thanks for sharing
The stove will get a decent feature in the next outing. Thanks for watching.
Saludos desde Costa Rica. Thanks a lot for the video. I am planning to go out for a backpacking trip this september, from the caribbean to the pacific. My needs will be different but you gave me good ideas. Thanks again
Really great videos mate. Just got myself that DD tarp you were talking about in different video going to test it in Peaks this weekend. Literally starting up doing videos as well, guess thats a cool way while doing solo hikes. Feel free pop around take care and happy hiking fella
Super helpful video. Great work mate!
I was a bit like this when I packed for my 5 weeks Canadian trip (Sept-Oct). 30 liters rucksack, under 10 kg weight, same tent (broke/repaired in 2 weeks), down sleeping bag (-7C). I took hiking boots and wellies and when, just before the flight posted hiking boots back to home. I think hiking boots better for Canada, wellies - for Scotland (hiked cuillin ridge in wellies). If you hike in the boots good thing to take - newspaper. For lightweight food: ground porridge and buckwheat
Thanks for sharing Paul.. Appreciated! Greetings from Scandinavia!
An excellent video with very useful advice and ideas . a low weight like this is what you need to keep the adventure fun . Many thanks for sharing your skills and tips .
That's incredible, I was about twice that weight, lol... I like that sleeping mattress, that's very light... Not sure that i would get on with the tent I love the cloud peak 2 to much... You are a great of info Paul, thank you...
Your setup is good, my kit weighs around that too with water and food added (3 season). In the summertime i can go down to 5 kg. I go ultralight mostly because of backproblems.
As for kit: I'd add a first aid kit, including blister treatment. A belt with at least one storage pocket (unless the backpack got one) would mainly use it to store quick access stuff like a map/compass. Finally, i'd add some spices for the food since it ca be a bit bland.
Hi Paul, wonderful setup ! Have a look at Optimus Crux burner, it's foldable and you can fit it on the bottom of the gas can. Cheers !
Thanks for the video a real help for anyone starting out some great ideas 👍
Thanks for sharing! Great kit and a lot of similarities to mine, that makes me feel comfortable, that I took the right decisions. I really enjoy your videos! Have fun on your trips 🍀🌈🍀
That is some excellent gear.... 5:40 wow; you really take care of your equipment..it looks brand new..awesome.
Some of it is starting to show wear but I make sure the gear is cleaned, properly dried out and stored, I want it to last.
@@PaulMessner My cook kit is all dented and blackened from open fire cooking...LOL. Most of my tent is a patch job of gorrilla tape and different tie-ons ...LOL..but I love it all.
That's because it is. He's a non walking advert!
Great video. I'm trying out a Naturehike air mat this weekend. I find that I slip off my thermal ite mat in the night. The Naturehike is only 30ml thick, so fits nicely into my SNUGPAC SF1 doss bag
Great overnighter testing the Naturehike sleep pad. Got to be honest, really impressed! It moulded to my body as the ground was a little bumpy. Honeycomb/mummy design. Just enough padding to avoid my hip and shoulder joints contacting the ground!
nice one paul have also decided to go down the quilt route this year.going down though wish i had seen the one you have there first lol.see how it goes i like a bit of room when i sleep .thanks for the vid.i learn something everytime i watch your vid`s.all the best .
Cheers Stu. Quilts are the future for me. I still love my Alpkit down bag but the quilts allow me move freely as I fidget in my sleep. I can also stick a leg out if too warm. Thanks for watching.
Great video, you have an awesome set up; Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I really appreciate all the extra info. I have the pocket rocket 2, but you sure sold me on the Soto stove!
I've put a link in the bio to my new today website. There's a code easter15 for 15%off if that helps at all.
great review Paul makes me feel like getting out wild camping again
I'd highly recommend the Snow Peak range of titanium cups/pots! The 700ml cook pot fits a small gas canister and an msr pocket rocket 2 inside perfectly. It also nests with a 32oz nalgene
The snow peak stuff looks great. I'm sure I'll pick some up at sometime. Thanks for watching
Amazing video Paul, the stool tip is awesome!
Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching
well done, great editing. 8kg is a good weight for 3 days. My kit is twice that at 16kg however I carry more heavy duty items such as stainless steel water bottle, pot, cup and burner. Big knife, folding saw, multitool, small knife. Small fishing kit with slingshot. Heavy snow goretex jacket. Canvas tarp/bivy/poncho and my pack is a 55L 5.11 tactical rush 72 @ 2.4kg empty. Mines more of a camping, bushcraft, fishing kit with an emphasis on being heavy duty for bushcraft/survival skills. 16kg includes 3 days of food and 2L/kg of water. Thanks for sharing.
New subscriber. I have been walking for many years but until very recently had never carried a tent. I now have a zephyros 2 and associated kit and tried it out for a couple of days walking and I think the total weight (including food and water ) was about 12kg. It was interesting watching your video to learn ways to cut down on the weight. I know the tent is not the lightest but as a first one it was good value. Thanks
Nice setup and like the pot setup. Much like yourself earlier I use the Pocket Rocket 2 and Alpkit pot. I have a clip on windscreen for it that also fits perfect round the outside of the pot and find that makes a big difference in windy weather. Amazing that as equipment has less features and thinner materials the price goes up. Atb
Really impressed with the windmaster. The lower flame height drastically improves wind performance and the boil times are great. The stove has won several awards in the last couple of years. I wish I could get thinner, lighter and my wages go up haha. Thanks for watching
Some great gear mate. Liking the quilt 🤟🤟 Take care cheers Karl
I’ve found a guy like me! Agree with everything in this video.
I’m just a bit surprise by the down from Decathlon. French I am and I tried few of them in store, without finding the right one. I’m curious about this model which is maybe no more selling in France anymore.
Thanks mate!
2:16 In regards to your drinking system I can highly recommend 'Katadyn - BeFree' as an alternative. It's one of my favourite pieces of gear! I guess that it's pretty much the same concept as the 'sawyer micro squeeze', however Katadyns version seems a bit more simple and convenient to me. Putting it very simple it's a bottle shaped bladder with a filter. You just squish the water into your mouth whenever you're thirsty. It sure does take the hassle out of getting clean water on the go!
Anyways, thank you for the video! It's always interesting to see what others put into their bags :-)
I just came home from a 2 nighter. My pack weight was 16.3 kg. I'm in mountain terrain above the arctic though so I need a bit of extra clothes and warm bag and a sturdy tent. I use an older Arcteryx Bora 65 (made in Canada), Hilleberg Soulo, Marmot 3 season down bag and I go all luxury and bring with a porlex coffee grinder, aeropress, black diamond lantern (~350 g.), Hemingway short stories, Swarovski binoculars, fishing pole and lures, one Bamse extreme sleeping mat and one of those Exped UL inflatable mattresses that should not be trusted. Very interesting to see how light kit you have put together for a three nighter.
Nicely presented and edited video Paul and good ‘honest’ packing too.. all the essentials👍
Just missing a few beers, but I want to focus on a few longer hikes. Thanks for watching Joss
If you stick a couple in for medicinal reasons, it doesn’t count towards the overall weight 😂
Thanks for sharing this. I have two exped snorkel bags that I use as dry sacks. You have some good ideas 💡 I have an Opinel no8 garden knife inox that I wear round my neck. Brilliant piece of kit 👍🏻
Glad you found it useful Michael. Thanks for watching.
Brilliant video of your Osprey backpack and camping equipment, I have a Osprey backpack I use it when I on holiday it's a great backpack
Great packs aren't they. Thanks for watching Andrew
Great video pal. As always it well detailed. Congratulations on the 10k subs. Keep up the good work
Thanks buddy. Much appreciated
Nice idea for ultralight bagpacking
Great video, I’m interested in that pack, you have got a lot in it. Thanks
Thanks Paul.. some good advice in this Video. - need to try and get a hip flask in there somewhere though mate.🥃
Great vid Paul, nice lightweight set up you have put together mate... 😎👌
Cheers steve
that's a lovely kit, looks pricey too, happy hiking!
My first trip, was a 2 day / 1 night trip. And a carried around 12Kg 🤦🏻♂️, so much to learn!
Good detailed reviews, very interesting, many thanks.
Hi Paul. Great uploads, full of useful information and fun to watch. I use to do a lot of hiking on the brecon beacons many years ago and am looking to get back in to hiking and camping with a friend. I dont really want to spend a fortune on a new tent etc as we have just bought a family tent. Roughly how much all that kit cost so that I know how much I need to save. I watched your upload on the tent and will probably go for the wild country micro 1 unless you advise otherwise. Cheers Paul.
Great video. I couldn’t do without bog roll. One lightweight ‘luxury’ - in a zip lock of course 👍🏻
water would be handy too
Hi Paul, thank you for your great and honest work. Always straight to the point. On the quilt, you mention it is the quilt, however when I follow the link I am redirected to the poncho. Could you please confirm which one are you using. Thank you!
That kilt looked awesome on you dude.
great video as always mate, I like that airbed and airpump, nice ideas
It's a clever bit of kit. Thanks again for watching buddy
