My Greatest Full Comfort Ultralight Gear List Ever! (4,000 miles testing)

Two years and 4,000 miles of testing new gear, and this is the result! A FULL COMFORT 9lb ultralight gear list ready for any trail, in nearly any season. This would be perfect for a thru hike of the PCT, CDT, or AT. It would be perfect for just about anything, and that was the goal with this.

Check out these two videos I did on budget gear for more ideas.

For many trips I took in the last two years I would strategically not bring many items on this list, simply because they may not be needed. The weather was warmer, heavy rains or bugs weren't expected. I wasn't hiking in an area with bears. Many different conditions on a hiking trip can mean you can go lighter! So a little bit of research can go a long way. Specific tips on how to be more ultralight is my specialty, so check out the video below if you want a little less luxury in camp and a more comfortable backpack. How to go more ultralight - https://youtu.be/UqSLGMy92EM?si=1odD7TYka3IOzrbD Overall I am super happy with the ultralight gear list in this video. I think it would be good for anyone on nearly any trail. My aim was to create a kit that would be perfect for the triple crown, a gear list that could be used on the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, AND the Continental Divide Trail. No changes necessary, to be happy and comfortable, but to still remain ultralight. So I hope you got some ideas from this! You could go cheaper, you could go lighter, but overall I think using this as a template for what's needed is about as good as it gets. Not too much, not too little. If you're watching this video and thinking that all of this is a lot, I don't disagree! For me and my own journey into backpacking, I gathered items slowly over time. I started out with very cheap and very heavy gear, and then over the coming years I got higher quality items when I could afford them. In the end it is this journey that is half the fun, opposed to just getting everything perfect right away. So you could say that really, this gear list is not two years in the making but rather, 12 years and 18,000 miles in the making. I have fiddled with gear my entire hiking and backpacking life. Always loving the ultralight side of gear, always wanting to go lighter. 0:00 - Full Comfort Ultralight Gear List 1:16 - Trekking Pole 1:42 - Tenkara Fishing 2:30 - Fanny Pack 3:07 - Titanium Spoon 3:33 - Tent Stakes 3:53 - Bidet 4:18 - Trowel 4:42 - Water Filter 5:20 - Sunglasses 6:22 - Backpack 7:20 - Pants! 7:54 - Shelter 9:40 - Small Items! 10:11 - Flashlight 10:53 - Wallet 11:24 - Battery Bank 12:16 - Pillow 12:56 - Sleeping Pad 14:03 - Bear Bag 15:27 - Neck Gaiter 16:36 - Wind Pants 17:41 - Fleece 18:40 - Puffy 19:58 - Socks 20:37 - Rain Jacket 21:41 - Cooking Gear 22:26 - Quilts 23:51 - Pack Liner Hiking Essentials Shirt! http://jupiterhikes.com/product/hikin...
