Hello from Patagonia! I just heard from OnX Backcountry that they’re offering 70% off for an early Black Friday deal. So if you want a great deal on a year long membership (that’s like $9 for a premium membership!) use code “eric70bf”. Sorry it doesn’t apply to gift cards but if you just want to treat yo self, it’s a great time to do it! 👉 xmaps.com/backcountry/r/erichanson
Thank you so much, Eric for the shout out on my bags! Good news, I’ve actually lowered the price, so less than $40 😁. Appreciate you my friend and this is a great list of ideas.
You’re a man of the people! I hope you sell a million of these things. I bright mine to Patagonia and I’ve been obsessed with it since I picked one up.
Eric, I'm so glad to hear you advocate for Grip6 socks. They are my absolute favorite socks. You've offered so many great ideas for gift-giving that I'm now including myself on my list of gift recipients. Happy Thanksgiving, Eric.
Tip with the sand/snow stakes, if you're planning to use them look up tutorials on their proper usage; using them the same way you'd use regular stakes (which is the way a lot of people use them and indeed the way they're often pictured in use on packaging/listings) does help a bit vs regular stakes but you can get even better hold with proper technique...
I have an old sen. puffy I was getting ready to toss because it is stained and faded. Now I have a great thing to do/make with it instead of it going to landfill. Thanks
Nitecore refreshed the design for the previous look and feel with the NU-20 Classic, but honestly been thinking of giving the Nitecore HA-11 a try combined with an eneloop AA rechargeable or similar battery from other brands. Benefits of rechargeable but benefits from being able to replace fast with other AA's.
The CRKT Biwa is my knife for backpacking, to make marshmallow sticks, food prep, and to filet trout. I like a fixed blade because its easier to hold, clean and more capable. Xd-2f stove and Petril pot FTW, best stove pot combo of 2024! Petri's performance is worth having to use the wind master or xd-2f they are best stoves performance wise anyway.
NU 33 was my choice as as a low vision person. No fun not being able to distinguish the trail connection opening between trees when leaving your secluded campsite. Those extra lumins made a big difference. Weight difference was worth it.
“When I’m hiking with pants on “ I actually spit out a little bit of coffee when you said that try not to laugh! 🎉😂 Also congratulations on your wedding. Very happy for both of you. !
I got the fire maple pot directly from fire maple and it fits on my msr pocket rocket deluxe. The website says it should work with any stove divided in 3
27:32 A belt so great, you can wear it with or without pants. I need to try those OV sun hoodies. I like the OR Echo hoodies, but when they are on super sales, they are still more expensive than the OV hoodies.
Happy Holidays Eric! Nice tips on the winter camping gear. The intergraded pot with windscreen is pretty cool ,and something Iv considered over the last weeks. I was unaware of the snow stakes though. I’ll be backpacking in the Canadian Rockies in January, so it’s definitely something I’ll look into purchasing. Seems pretty key for that environment. I forgot about the booties! Good recommendations!
While the flextail zero is small it doesn’t have the power to inflate most mattresses properly. However,their slightly larger models can and one has a built in light. They’re also amazingly useful to stoke camp fires. Grip6’s belts are amazing as well. I have a few and while their carbon fiber model is pricey, it’s worth it if you travel through airports a lot.
I think your one step away from wearing turquoise jewelry. Sort of the Nathaniel Rateliff album cover look with a Clint Eastwood Pancho. I don't know... I just can see it in your eyes. I been doing the outdoor thing for a long time. I would be happy to receive any of these items. Nice list. Thanks for the share. 👴 Head lamp is awesome; I like the 25. 💚💚💚 Oh... I realize no one talks about it in the Backpkg/camping community. But a nice EDC Fanny pack would be a great gift. I use mine for much more than EDC, great front pouch.
@18:05 !❤ I have seen literally watched ONE HUNDRED TH-cam personalities speak on this headlamp. YOU are the FIRST🔥 to bother mentioning that THE CORD IS GLOW-IN-THE-DARK??❤ Well, why didn't someone say something sooner!!❤ omg it's exactly what I wanted.
Oh before i forget again, the best sun hoodie for men on a tight budget that probably rivals an Oregon Research version (with better colors than OR LOL) is the Bassdash Men's UPF 50+ 1/4 Zip Fishing Hoodie. For coffee when i want a real brew instead of instant i can vouch the Soto Helix (or clones from CHY-NA) compare to french presses or an aero-press. If you get the clone from china make sure to get the similar sized one as they come in several sizes.
my understanding is that the fuel cannisters should be one time use only, have you heard anything different on impacts on refilling cannisters that are not designed to be filled up multiple times?
Fuel canisters are made for one-time use only. Tanks like scuba tanks are designed for multiple refills, but even those require recertification every x number of years.
@@eric_hanson I gave up, bought the pad-pal. Much happier with this option. For overnight trips have you tried using your camera’s tripod with the Campingmoon refillable 15g canister or 35g canister to cook at camp chair height yet? This Old Fat Fart has fully loved that multi-use of items that I bring anyways on the shorter trips.
The camping moon stove cannot be used with the fire maple petrel pot *unless you get the Soto triflex attachment to replace the 4 prong support it comes with. I’ve been using the camping moon +soto triflex + fire maple petrel here in Patagonia in extremely windy conditions and it’s been incredibly efficient!
Let’s keep the creeks clean- take the water to rinse the nasty skivvies away from the water sources! You could be downstream from someone rinsing their dirty underwear.😒🥾🥾⛺️ (200 feet from water sources)
Your attempt to sell the flextail air pump was painful. Could you show me the moldy air pad you referenced 🤣 $50 to advertise how adverse you are to work.

Hi! I think your link is broken

I just gotta know where you go that dope sweater! Where did you find that?
I use the pocket rocket stove. All you need to do is use a flathead screwdriver to slightly bend the bottom grooves of the pot.

I use the Fire Maple with my Pocket Rocket Deluxe

The Fire Maple pots works great with the Jetboil MightyMo.
😊Great suggestions, Eric, thank you!!! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Huzzah for naturist hiking!

Outstanding choices. Happy holidays.
Any idea where the sweater you're wearing in this came from Eric?
I have the same question

I'm thinking I need a bidet from GGG. Thanks for the ideas.
FYI The firemaple works with the original Pocket Rocket
Another great video..thanks..
I thought your code said ‘Handsome20’ and I nearly spat my coffee out 🤣

Looks like you have been working in Santa workshop😂

FYI. I've own both for several years.
Engagement! Good stuff man, great video. Hope Patagonia is treating you well!
Nice
Not a fan of you recommending the NU25 when the NU20 classic is almost a straight upgrade unless you're doing a massive amount of night time hiking.
Nice.
Eric where did you get that jacket man I love it.
🎉🎉🎉🎉

Fuel canisters are made for one-time use only. Tanks like scuba tanks are designed for multiple refills, but even those require recertification every x number of years.
Agree with everything except the pump zero. Tried multiple batteries fully charged under multiple conditions, can’t even get a basic Xthem filled 15%
That’s really weird. I’ve been able to use one charge to fill my mattress about ten times. Must be a defect?
I've used mine on a few trips and my 4 night trip filling two REI Helix mattresses each night I didn't need to recharge the battery
The larger flextail models are much more powerful and not much heavier.
Mine kinda dies after one or two fills as well.

Any thoughts on the camping moon listing now saying you can’t use it with pots like the fire maple? Saw this as I was scrolling thru the photos.
The camping moon stove cannot be used with the fire maple petrel pot *unless you get the Soto triflex attachment to replace the 4 prong support it comes with.

Thank you! I was wondering if that was it but wasn’t sure!

So your against a person themselves rinsing off in an stream too then?

Never met a mini flint wheel that didnt SUCK. The biner is trash. Get a bic.
You know what, I just can’t watch anymore…
Nice
Nice
