    I go on a four day backpacking trip with Miranda Webster, aka ‪@MirandaGoesOutside‬, in the canyons of Utah and Arizona. As per tradition, I "battle" them over who has the best, most fun, most quirky gear. Miranda is a formidable foe as we discuss at length our favorite items and what really stands out to us in our backpacking loadout. Sorry to ‪@KyleHatesHiking‬ and ‪@DanBecker‬ for catching some strays here as we lovingly make fun of them.

    Huge thanks to @mirandagoesoutside, her video we reference is coming in a week (I think!). Unfortunately we ran out of time to include Rainer here but that feels pretty on brand. So sorry to @kylehateshiking for catching some serious strays here. Thanks to @danbecker for being everyone's favorite dad. And definitely thanks to @taylorthenahamshahiker for the best gear recommendation of them all!

    This is probably my favorite backpacking video to date. My wife and I were laughing hard at all the funny comments and witty retorts. We loved @mirandagoesoutside sharing some of the hygiene challenges that women face in the back country and how she solved them. And we love that @eric_hanson shared his story about pre-cancer spot in his ear and now wears wide brimmed hats. The hat is awesome, by the way.
    And the editing of this video was also freakin hilarious. Shout out to boy scout dad @danbecker.

    The ZenBivy sleep system is the most comfortable I’ve ever used. Eric didn’t mention that while his is very expensive, it’s also the new Ultralight Bed. I have the more affordable Light Bed which was about $300 if I remember correctly, and only a few oz heavier. I pair it with the Big Agnes Rapide SL sleeping pad and it’s easily the best sleep you can get in the backcountry. Also, I love Miranda’s camp shoe setup. Mine is similar but I wear Bedrock sandals (the Cairn Pro II model). They’re perfect for stream crossings as well as being excellent camp shoes. They are the kind that go between your big toe and index toe though, so instead of bringing regular socks or down booties for warmth, I bring heavy weight socks that Injinji made especially for Bedrocks that are basically mittens for your feet. All the comfort of wool socks but no twedgie!

    Whelp, just purchased the bidet and pee tube via your link. :) I have a shewee that’s bulky so don’t bring backpacking, this will solve. Have a bidet that screws onto a water bottle, but like Miranda, I can’t use the same bottle for this as drinking so I bring an extra, plus the water is a bit difficult to squirt out from squeezing a bottle in that position. Back when Giardia just started to become a thing, I got it. Was very sick for 6 weeks so I don’t mess around. Also, if you read “The Cactus Eater,” one guy’s self-deprecating and very funny account about attempting the PCT, he contracted it and said the DR told him that it was probably due to his not so sanitary habits on trail. Eweee.

    I wish the Zenbivy still offered full length sheets for their light and ultralight beds as I absolutely HATE the half sheets. You can still get it with the Core bed and mix and match the quilt, but then of course you have different fill weights between top and hood. The tiny weight savings are just not worth the hassle of the half sheet moving up the mattress all the time, and I really don't like the feel of bare skin on the mattress.

    • @MrSportdiver

    I’ve been a Zenbivy guy since they came out and it’s the only comfortable way for me to sleep. Perfect for side sleepers or anyone that can’t do mummy bags due to their restrictive nature.
    Also, I have the same Tarptent and it’s perfect for areas w/o a lot of space to set up a tent! I actually switched to it from a Durston tent. About the same weight, more versatile, and I love how it has a porch!

I have to go with Eric's setup because I'm a NEMO fan girl, LOL!!! Tip for Miranda - do not use your Kula Cloth to blow your nose with.😉😂 I do like the fact that they show up in the dark when I'm trying to get out of my tent in the middle of the night when nature calls but I do bring extra TP to wipe my nose with and not cross contaminate my Kula Cloth, LOL! 🤣 And Eric, I love your Indiana Jones style hat!

I'm also a Melanoma survivor so I have to use more protection than most while backpacking.

    I have an old oversized backpack w/ brain & take brain off to use as Fanny pack. Win/win

    I'm such a fan girl of both of your channels. When I started backpacking, you both were the primary sources of my information & I've learned so much. Eric wins with his Zenbivy (I have the light bed) & Nemo set up! Miranda wins on the pack (I want it!) & cool gadgets.

    This is why I love these gear reviews. Some hate them because they think it's just a big infomercial. Fair enough, but I crave the gear reviews. That quilt is close to $400 and Miranda was just sort of meh about it. I can't spend even half that amount on a piece of gear that I'm not going to love. I can't just keep buying the same type of gear over and over until I find the right one. I need to get as close to perfect as I can on my first swing. Hence, I love the real-world use and review videos. Thank you.

    I love the Zenbivy (have 25F UL). Definitely use it with the sheet, but there's no need to use their pillow or pad. Yes, pricey, but very comfortable. The hooks-system take a little getting used to, but it's not an issue. Loving that tent!

    As another commenter has said, you can get a great, lightweight ZenBivy sleep system for far less than $1000! I love mine. I use the Nemo pad I already had, then bought the ZenBivy 25 deg down quilt and sheet for less than $400 (total weight without pad is 24 oz.)

  • @Karen-dq8nw
    @Karen-dq8nw 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Eric wins tent for sure, although I do love Tarptents and have two. Miranda wins pack. That Mystery Ranch zipper just seems silly, but my tent goes on the outside so I don't open the pack until the tent is already pitched. Faffing about with a sleep system, nope. Neither one. I want warm comfy and zzzzzzz. Also the bidet bottle - way too big and more faffing about putting it together. A nasal lavage bottle works just as well and no removable parts. Poop bag - where do you put that thing in the pack? Maybe next - go head to head on dinner! Best dessert wins! Love the setting and wish I was there too. Great video.

  • @ManivanAdventures
    @ManivanAdventures หลายเดือนก่อน

    I could never get on board with the bidets for the exact reasons you mentioned. Just grossed me out too much to use my drinking water bottle for that… lol I would love to reduce the amount of TP I need to carry out though, so I might give this other one a try! 🤙🏼

    Eric is using a 10 degree UL Zenbivy in this video. I just checked and here are the specs for 10 degree Large in UL, Light, and Core:
    UL is 900 fill down, 1lb 14 oz, $659
    Light is 800 down, 2 lb 3 oz, $329
    Core is 650 down, 2 lb 10 oz, $279
    Going from Light to UL costs $330 to save 5 oz. That's $1,056/lb in weight savings. Going from core to light costs $50 to save 7 oz. That's a more efficient $114/lb. However, if you go for the 3-season 25-deg bag, Core is $199 and 1lb12oz and Light is $279 and 1lb9oz. $80 for 3 oz = $427/lb. This analysis negates the volume benefit of going lighter weight, which can be important.
    UL insulated 25" sheet is 6.9 oz, $179
    Light insulated 25" sheet is 8.7 oz, $99
    Core insulated 25" sheet is 11.2 oz, $109 (pricing is more because it is a full sheet)
    Going from Light to UL costs $80 to save 1.8 oz. That's $711/lb to shave weight.
    If you just want 25 degree, then go with the core bed and the non-UL sheet that meets your needs (I'd opt for uninsulated). If you want the 10 degree warmth, then go with the Light quilt and the non-UL sheet that meets your needs.

    This is a great video for you two. Eric, you have an incredible calm and fair manner onscreen with Miranda, and she bubbles with her usual enthusiasm. The Kit Award goes to Eric, very hard to beat the comfort, utility, and modest weight of a lightweight glamping setup. But Miranda deserves the award for being creatively unique in all aspects. Of course, it might be Rainer as producer that wraps all this together, but the Kyle references added to the levity. Can we get a "second season" with such a natural flow of sharing ideas? Will Kyle appear with you for a mano a mano matchup on long distance camp decor? I guess we'll have to stay tuned, but thanks for this delightful video!

    I don’t miss the ability to use the mesh inner tent only of a double wall tent which is why a single wall tent like the Tarptent Rainbow works well for me. When I head for the tent I’m ready to sack out and would only stargaze for a minute or two anyway. I also sleep on my side so don’t really look up and on top of that I live in the pacific northwest which means rain is always a possibility so even with a double wall tent I’m likely to have the rain fly on. Personal preference I suppose.
