It’s like watching someone opening Christmas! Thank you.
Thank you and thanks for watching!✌
Awesome Video Jerry ! Those seal skins lol man.. saved our feet so much but i got plenty of blisters from them as well..nasty ones even lost 2 toe nails . .. i should have used that milk bag you gave me also .. but i wanted to see what the Grayl could do.. i'll never take that thing again ..12oz of dead weight lol. I think just the extra water, extra clothes .. added so much weight to our packs. plus i took extra stuff ...
I have change my future pack so much now lol.. doesn't even look the same. Those booties were great, saved my feet at night for sure. Can't wait to hike with you again 😉
I used those Sealskinz again on the trail this morning.
Wet trails seem to love me. They were a swampy muddy mess.😂
@@tangenttrails 🤣 let’s hope the next trail isn’t so wet
The trick with waterproof socks or bags is to take breaks every few hours to dry the sweat off your feet and air them out. It is amazing how much feet sweat. All my socks are wool now, winter or summer. A good lotion or butter balm for your feet at night is really great too, especially when hiking in snow or wet cold trails all day.
@@anitasimmons3599 Exactly I made sure to dry my feet every back off break I took. Especially after switching back to the Injinjis. Should have done a better job with my Sealskinz. The butter balm is great advice. Thanks.
@@anitasimmons3599 Wool socks in the summer? That sounds miserably hot.
Sleeping great info Jerry thank you for sharing
Thank you, Kevin! Glad you enjoyed.✌️
I meant to say very good info. Lol
Great gear load out there. You have some lightweight expensive gear too. Interesting about the water socks causing problems. However, you were in the water a lot on that trip. I know the water wrecked my feet on the trail last summer. Cool video and well done going over your inventory. Have a great day.
Thank you. I keep dialing the weight down when I can afford to. It helps my knees tremendously over the gear I started with.
Thank you for the gear video. Thank is a lot of gear for 11.5 pounds. It makes me think I should invest in a few new lighter items. Thank you again for taking the time to create this video.
You’re welcome. Yes. It’s amazing the items you can carry if you go with lighter gear. It’s taken me 4 years to dial it in. Remember most of the heavier items in the video, clothing, I was wearing 90% of the time and didn’t include in my base weight.
Great setup! We will share this over on our FB page
Thanks!✌️
Brilliantly presented and narrated my friend. 🔥🔥
Awesome! Thank you!✌️
One of our trail nemesis, the camp pillow! We kept waiting for you to pull one out to see what you might be using. Reckon you're using clothing and misc items in a stuff sack? We've played around over the years and are returning to a compressed foam pillow after fighting with slippery air filled ones for several summers now.
Lol. I’m using a Zpacks inflatable pillow wrapped in a Colorado Trail buff.
It has an elastic band to go around the sleeping pad to keep it in place. Far from my perfect pillow but it doesn’t way squat and I sleep sound.
@Tangent Trails we've tried all types of tricks, t-shirt wrap, inflate, deflate... heading back to our old compressed foam (for now). One small item can make or break sleep! 🤪
Try the Klymit Drift compressed camping pillow. It is a little hefty at 19oz for the regular but it’s the most comfortable pillow I’ve ever used, I use it at home, I save weight on other things just for it 😂
@Shaggy Terrell we'll definitely check it out. Thank you for the recommendation!
Very detailed gear review. If not mistaken, this was all shot in one take! Very impressive! We love our Xero shoes; have you considered a hiking version?
Thank you!
I’d intended it to be in one take but the tripod fell over when I was showing the food bag. lol. Zero shoes? Yes. I’ve been interested in the Mesa ll trail shoes. REI is the closest dealer near me that carries them and they haven’t had my size to try on. So I wait.😢
Great info
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Got seal skins as a Christmas gift. But I doubt I will ever wear them. If I do I’ll add socks
Awesome load out Jerry! What were some of your all-star pieces and any failures other than the seal skinz?
Thanks, Dave!
My gear, with the exception of the Sealskinz, was pretty dialed in and all performed great. I’ll say the Sleaskinz were user error. I don’t believe they were intended to be worn for the distance I wore them on day one and two. I’d have to say my all-stars gear on the LSHT were my tent, pack, sleeping pad, Cnoc Vecto, Injinji socks and my Lone Peaks. Having to dry my quilt almost everyday due to condensation was tiring but excepted. I did use the Sealskinz again on the last 7 miles of the trip and they performed excellently.
You review ready camping
Now you have to do a vid about the food you take.
😄 My food was pretty much shown in my zero day vid. It all stayed the same. My dinners were Backpackers Pantry dehydrated meals that were repackaged into ziplock freezer bags to save space.
@@tangenttrails Thank you for your response. We are doing a 4 day hike on the LSHT Easter weekend. We are campers but not primitive. I hope it works out for us. Yikes!
@@jennybtx That’s wonderful! Best wishes on your hike and happy trails!✌️
Wear crew pants, etc., no jeans. Blend pants. People who grow up outdoors, woods, etc., wear pants. Do not wear shorts city folks.
No denim. The rest is preference. Have a nice day.
