My Ultralight Gear Set Up (8,000 miles later)
Here is my first take at doing a video of my gear for long-distance backpacking! Lighter Pack- https://lighterpack.com/r/oj2zt9 If Link doesn't work check down below in description. This setup mostly resembles my PCT gear list as it was my most recent thru hike, but this is also just my base set up for about any through hike I might do or re do in the future. I'm using only my phone to film and edit, so forgive me if the audio and editing is low quality...I'll probably avoid filming outside in the future. I do hope that the information shared here helps give some insight to those wishing to lower their base weight or simply get a better idea of what excess gear to shed. I do plan to continue making more vlog style/ informative based content like this, so if there's anything you'd like to see me cover, please let me know down below or at my Instagram.
