I know. I sorta went down this ultra light rabbit hole lately. I’ve got a few more plans to change up some gear. I don’t know that it’ll reduce my weight any more, but it’ll definitely help me be more efficient. Tent is great so far. 60 miles and 3 nights in it so far. Every night below freezing and no complaints yet!
@@dirtbagadventures1 nothing wrong with that lol, I can’t believe the hyper light is still kicking. I guess we know they are good packs. That thing is old. I don’t think I’ve ever hiked under 30 pounds lol. But hell yea how bulky is the tent? When folded up?
@@zachkern6908 it’s pretty small. The way I roll it up it fits right inside the front middle pocket on the front of the bag. Barely sticks over the top, and has enough room in the pocket to keep the Be free bottle, and my Garmin in with it. I did some research and that bag is a 2400 southwest “ tall “. It was produce in 2011 thru today, but obviously it’s been changed over the years. That model is one of the first models made. Hyper light went commercial in 2011 so 🤷♂️. Pretty crazy to have one of the original designs still kicking and being used hard, and quite honestly in really good shape.
@@zachkern6908 🤫🤫 I may or may not have some things in the works. Won’t be a full time sponsor, but it’ll definitely be at least one collaboration with a company on some gear reviews. I won’t say much yet because I’m not 100% sure that I will happen, but there has been communication between myself and the company. Just waiting to hear back from the advertising team.
Thanks for the heads up on the audio. I do believe my case was causing so blockages on the mic side. I’ll correct for the next trip. Thanks for watching! 🤙
Crazy to think we used to hike with 50-60 pounds.
That tent is sweet definitely interested to see how it does
