Hi, thanks for watching! Yeah, this tent is a palace AND fortress. I trust it in any weather, and if you would like to see it in snow storms and other winter weather, I have a whole playlist just for that :) ua-cam.com/play/PLlizgcc7ctqvMUoIiye1lCtgq2pwpDKhP.html The tent costs almost $1200 (US Dollars) and is over 6 lb (over 3 kg) heavy + the footprint and pegs. It's heavy, and I've used a sled for some of my adventures to make it easier. hilleberg.com/eng/products/tents/2-person

@@adventuresandreams 1200$!?! Buy once, cry once🤣 I watched the whole series this morning😌

@@tonesmith909 Haha, yeah, it sure is an investment. I think it was a bit cheaper when I bought it back in 2018. Just think about it this way: it's a tent for life! If you follow Hilleberg a bit and see their posts, you will see that they show tents in use from 30+ years ago. I may have to replace the cord inside the tent poles at some point, but otherwise, this tent will last. I would also like to buy the Soulo soon, but I lack the funding for now. But thanks so much for watching the entire series. Those were the very first videos I put on my channel. It makes me so happy that people like you still find them useful and comment on them. It makes my day! :)

Thank you so much for heading over to this video to check it out. I'm glad you liked it. Yes, this location was super special, and many of the campsites were near the water. I think it's pretty busy there on sunny days, but this was the Easter weekend with storms and rain, so I had the trail to myself. I tried one time to set up the rainfly first and then the inner tent, but it was so hard. I always wanted to do that again and film it, though. I really should. It would be a good skill to have. I will still use this tent if the hike is less strenuous or if I go canoe camping. I love this tent, but the lighter one makes more sense in the mountains. I still want to get a lighter winter tent as well. My Hilleberg tent is very spacious but incredibly heavy. I have carried it a couple of times, but it works best with the sled. I have several winter camping trips on my channel, too, if you want to check them out. :) Thank you again for watching and for your support! I hope to see your comments again sometime. :)

Hallo! Nein, die kenne ich noch nicht. Da werde ich morgen gleich mal nachschauen. Danke dir. :)

viele Grüße aus der weiten Ferne (guten Morgen und gute Nacht)

@@camouflage962 Guten Morgen! Schön dich wieder in den Kommentaren zu sehen! Ich hoffe das Abenteuer hat dir gefallen. :) Übrigens habe ich mir auch den Rucksack von Hyperlite Moutnain Gear angeschaut, der auch total wasserdicht ist und super leicht wie das Zelt. I'm augenblick fehlt mir leider noch das Geld dafür. Ich schau aber gleich noch nach Ortlieb.

Jetzt habe ich den Atrak gefunden. Sieht robust aus! Aber ich such echt nach ultralechtem gear, und der Hyperlite Mountain Gear Rucksack wiegt weniger als ein Kilo. Schau mal. www.hyperlitemountaingear.com/products/southwest-55

ok, danke... ich bevorzuge den Atrack weil ich den echt hart 'rannehme... Gletscher, Höhlen, Wildwasser etc.

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. That means so much to me. These mountains truly capture your heart, don't they! I already can't wait to go back, and I think my next trip will be during Fall. I'll have to look up the locations you visited. Did you have a favorite? I'm glad that I could bring back these memories :)

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. That means a lot to me. I'm so glad that I could bring back these memories. Your trip sounds amazing! This was only my first time in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, but I think it's going to be my go-to place whenever I can. I'm already thinking about a Fall trip! :)

Oh! I was reading another comment above yours and was still thinking about it when I replied to you. I'm so sorry! :D It's so great to read from people that they've been there before, but you're going there soon! You will love it. You'll be there while I'm working on the last part of this series, and by the time you get back, you might recognize quite a few places, but your hike over Duck Pass will be the real adventure. I would love to do this eventually, perhaps after the winter. I still need to build up some endurance for longer trips like this. 40 miles is quite a bit. Of course, everything takes me longer because of all the filming, but I wouldn't want it any other way. Reading comments like yours make the effort worth it. Well, thanks for watching, and sorry again about the mix up with another comment. I will respond to that person now. :) See you in my last episode, but in the meantime, have an amazing adventure. Perhaps you'll let me know leter how it went. I would love to hear from you.

Thank you so much!! :D I have a feeling that I will have many in these mountains and elsewhere!

One of my favorite quotes!

Thank you so much! Yeah, this filter is unbeatable. I filtered very murky water on a backpacking trip with it, and it's the only filter I would trust with water like that. Because of the weight, I no longer take it with me, unfortunately, but it will serve you well, especially since you have a few people. It filters water so fast! Have a great trip. I'm glad my video helped you to remember how everything works. :)

Thank you so much. Let me know if you have any questions :)

Oh yes! The next couple of parts will really go up into the breathtaking alpine region. It's a completely different world up there. I was blown away :) Get ready for my next video on Sunday, and I'll do a video Premier again to watch it live with my viewers and answer questions. Stay tuned for more! Thank you for watching!

It's so great to see your comment in my video, Ronnette! I really appreciate it, also your Ursack comment a few weeks ago. You convinced me to use it instead of buying a bear canister, and I'm so glad that I took it. I've had it for five or six years now, and never had a problem with it. A friend of mine watched my video and offered me her somewhat smaller bear canister after her upcoming trip. She will no longer need it and wants to gift it to me. That is so kind, and if I ever make my way into a National Park, I will surely use it. You asked about the pack weight. I wish I could tell you, but I never checked it. I should do so for my next trip, and I'll let you know. But I have to say, my new tent, the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Mid 1, has made a HUGE difference in weight. It's 1/4 of my previous 2-person tent. It weighs only 16 ounces + the tent stakes. I don't know what gear you have and if you could deal with a somewhat more primitive tent setup, but it's so worth it for the size and weight difference. Now to the Goal Zero. I truly can't recommend it enough. It's very lightweight, and I would consider taking a smaller power bank if I had one because I can charge it all day. It works surprisingly well in the tent and on cloudy days. You'll see more of that in my next Sierra video if you want to watch it. If you want to find out a bit more about the Goal Zero, you can check out my review here. I was on a multi-day canoe camping trip and filmed the review with many great shots of the camping trip itself. I think you would enjoy it :) ua-cam.com/video/el6GeOFCn0Y/v-deo.html Also, I admire you for going up to the mountains days before your actual trip! That's so amazing. My husband needs the car three days a week, so the earliest I can drive there from Irvine is Wednesday evenings. That gives me just one night to get used to the elevation, but thankfully, I had no problems at all on my last trip. It surprised me, and I'm ready for a slightly more challenging route next time. I'll be sure to ask for recommendations in the FB group again, or do you have any? Anyway, thank you again for your comments here and in the FB group! I hope to hear from you again soon, Ronnette :)

Thank you so much. That means a lot to me :)

Thank you so much for watching. Yeah, I love many locations here in the US, but I do miss Algonquin Park! Unfortunately, there is nothing like that in this corner of the country.

Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you liked it. Did you watch the whole series? I also just released a video from the Sierra Nevada Mountains :)

It's good to see your name here again. Thanks for watching. The tent did really well, although it took a bit of getting used to the slanted walls on all but one side. There is tons of space, though. You just have to plan ahead a bit. After a couple of nights, I set it up even better to have more room. I filmed a super detailed review and setup guide for it that might be interesting for you. I'll be working on those videos after the trip videos :) If you didn't see it, I have a link at the top of the description that goes to a blog post describing my adventurous drive to the parking lot. You might enjoy that as well. Thanks again for your support!

Thank you so much for watching! The scenery gets more beautiful with every part. The Sierras are incredible. :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch it live and for your comment. The Sierras are absolutely breathtaking, and the next two parts will be even more stunning than this one. I found some exceptional camps in this beautiful alpine region.

Mine just finished as well. It's time to prep it! I gathered a couple of links in case people wonder where this location is. I also have photos, but they are mostly from locations in parts two and three, so I will hold off on them for now. I have to grow the anticipation for the next sections of the trip. :D

Nein, leider nicht. Ich habe mir sehr lange vorgestellt, mal das Enan zu kaufen, aber als ich das erstaunliche Gewicht von 476 Gram des Hyperlite Mountain Gear Mid 1 Zeltes gesehen habe, da kam einfach kein Hilleberg Zelt ran. Ich habe mich für diesen trip echt bemüht, mein Rucksackgewicht so gering wie möglich zu halten, und es hat geklappt. Ein paar Sachen will ich immer noch kaufen, vor allem einen neuen Rucksack und eine Daunendecke. Da würde ich auch noch mal einiges an Gewicht sparen. Ich habe diese Sachen hier aufgelistet :) buymeacoffee.com/adventuresandreams/wishlist

You are welcome. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you have any questions. My filter is over 5 years old now, and it FINALLY started to slow down on my last trip just a week or two ago. It's time to replace it :)

Hi there, thank you so much for watching my video. The issue you describe is new to me, the smell at least. I have encountered bubbles in the past from pressing the water through the filter. I don't want to give you any wrong answers, so I will contact Katadyn for you and find out about it. It's a good thing for me to learn as well. They are pretty fast in responding. Perhaps you can hold off on using the filter for a couple of days while I get the answer for you? I hope your filter is ok, but if it's a new one and the ceramic element is faulty, they will replace it for sure. If you find out about it before I get back to you, please let me know here as well. I am currious about this issue for sure.

Hello again, I already heard back from Katadyn, and this is what they wrote: "Thank you for your email. We have not received complaints of a chemical odor from the Pocket. The Pocket is only to be cleaned with water and no cleaning solutions or soap. If cleaners are used, they could be absorbed into the filter and that could be the cause of the chemical odor. That is just a guess. The customer might want to try soaking it in 1 tbs of household vinegar to 1 liter of water. Perhaps that might remove the taste. " Please let me know if the vinegar helps. Good luck, Andrea

@@adventuresandreams Hi, thanks for your reply. I was planning to contact them also if I couldn't find anything else out online otherwise but.. just to clarify, the smell I was getting is on the first use, after cleaning with only water and nothing else. I will try soaking it in vinegar and see what that does.

@@improvetheworldnow Interesting. I hope that the vinegar works, followed by lots of clean-water rinsing. I've had mine for many years so I honestly can't even remember my first use. I hope it works out. It's such a great filter if you keep up the cleaning and let it dry very well. I hope to hear from you one more time after you've treated it.

You’re welcome :) I have the full review here if you want to find out more details :) Katadyn BeFree Water Filter: Can it Handle 5 Years of Frequent Use? ua-cam.com/video/ItCNh_Kbdc8/v-deo.html

That's a great tip. I never thought of that and will try that next time I'm out there with the Nammatj 2 GT in the winter. Thank you for watching and for your comment :)

Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked it :)

You are most welcome! I still love this backpack and used it last week on my 4-day backpacking trip at the Sierra Nevada Mountains. :)

I wanted to ask you something, actually. I'm always currious what reasons people have to watch a video. You've thad the backpack for quite some time, so I wonder what inspired you to watch this video? Maybe your answer can help me create more content like this that would be useful for people when they already own the gear. Thank you again for watching :)

Ha, thanks for watching! You are right. The weight difference is ridiculous, and I will only take the bigger tents when I'm canoe camping or perhaps car camping out in the dessert or so. Otherwise there is no reason to take so much extra weight! I just came back from my 4-day backpacking trip yesterday, and I have to say that the much smaller space took a little time to adjust to, and It was "raining" condensation in it one morning, but otherwise the tent was great. More to come in my next videos from the trip and the Mid 1 itself :)

@@adventuresandreams Yes the condensation gets bad in my Dyneema tents and I keep a wipe cloth just for that. I also opted for 2p so I had more room to avoid my bag touching the walls which helps.

@@boutthere3374 I was truly debating to get a 2p tent as well, but I wanted to cut back on weight as much as possible. I definitely learned my condensation lesson quickly and used my packtowl as well. I also started putting my cloths into the bag that I use to fill up the sleeping pad, which helped. Maybe the slightly bigger tent would have been a better choice, though :D What Dyneema tents do you have?

@@adventuresandreams I have the zpacks 2P Camo Duplex(17.9oz)(the camo is no longer available and I also have the 2p zpacks free standing free duo (30oz with poles) no longer available but they do have a new free standing tent in its place. I also have a zpacks dyneema tarp 8.5'x10' (6.9oz) and that goes with me always. I just happened to buy zpacks first off but any quality brand is putting out good dyneema gear. I've never wished I had less space in a tent.

@@boutthere3374 Ah, great tents by the look of it. Maybe I will regred getting the 1P tent, but I found a pretty good "order" at the end of my trip. Nice tarp you have there as well. I'm currious, do you use a groundcloth with your tents? I always have, but did not buy one for this one. It seems to be ok, but I haven't been in mody places yet with the tent. Btw, do you follow me of FB? I just posted some trip photos there. But I should actually also put them in my community tab. Anyway, thanks for the info. :)

You are most welcome. Thank you for watching :)

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. Yes, setting up the tent in the wind is a bit of a challenge for sure, and this same method works with any tent in any season. I just returned from the Sierra Nevada Mountains yesterday and battled with a bit of wind there as well as I was setting up my new single-person tent. :)

Thanks for watching my video! I'm glad you got the filter, and would love to hear from you how you like it after using it a bit. I think this filter is super useful in some situations, but definitely not all. I took it backpacking one time, and the weight was just too much for that. I'll take my BeFree filter any day with my backpack, though. But when the water is super dirty, I would trust this filter more than any other, and it lasts forever. I think it could be useful for off-grid living and very long tours, also canoe camping where weight doesn't play as much of a role. What did you buy it for? I'm currious! Take good care of it and let it dry for a very long time! :)

Thank you for taking the time to check it out.

Thank you so much. If you are interested, the full. Idea is li led with the Short. This beautiful sequence is much longer there :)

Hallo, danke fürs Anschauen. :) so richtig eingelebt habe ich mich noch nicht, aber hoffentlich kann ich nächste oder übernächste Woche endlich zelten gehen. Im Sommer nehme ich kein Hillerberg Zelt. Das ist viel zu schwer. Ich werde mir vielleicht dieses Wochenende ein Hyperlight Zelt kaufen, was nur etwas über 600 gr wiegt! Das wird mich im Sommer und Herbst dann immer begleiten. :)

Oh, das Zelt ist sogar noch leichter als ich gesagt habe, 476 gram! www.hyperlitemountaingear.com/products/mid-1-tent

Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. :)

Thank you :)

You’re very welcome. Thank you for watching! :) Are you planning a trip with this sleeping bag anytime soon?

@@adventuresandreams yeah very soon.

Thank yo ufor the tip. I actually had another view mention this just a couple of weeks ago. I prompty tried it, and it worked much better. I don't have the user manual anymore, and so I just assembled it in a way to seemed right, but this is much better. I will do it like this from now on, and maybe need a short followup video :D

@@adventuresandreams Ahh, my fault. Posted before reading the comments. I think your way works too, so long as you are aware of protecting that little igniter. :)

@@Martyntd5 Ha, no worries. I really apptreciate the comment, especially since it protects my gear. I used to use a tissue to protect the little igniter, but I lost it (or probably used it for a spill at some point or another :D )

@@adventuresandreams Good attitude. :) Oh I dont know if it's the same with yours as mine is quite old now, but the cozy on mine has a little graphic under the handle strap which shows the proper packing order in case your forge?

@@Martyntd5 No, unfortunately not. :)

I'm so glad you found it helpful. Let me know if you have any questions! :)

Thanks so much for watching, Marie! Wow, the aquarium in Tokyo. That must have been something! I've been to a couple by now, and my favorite one so far was in Atlanta, but we will eventually travel to San Diego to theirs. It is supposed to be one of the best. :) I hope you find some environmentally friendly brands. Blueland is one of my favorites, and I use many of their products. Maybe they ship to Canada? www.blueland.com You can also find most brands on Amazon, actually. Let me know what you end up buying. I'm always on the lookout for more suggestions.

You are very welcome. I'm glad you liked it, and thank you for watching :)

It's good to see your comment on two of my videos! Yeah, it was so crazy to have my tent stakes frozen completely solid in the ground. I was just kind of speechless at the time. I'm glad I got them all back, and after posting the video, I received some great tips on how to get them out more easily. Have you gone out winter camping yourself, or are you thinking about it? If you have any questions, let me know :)

@@adventuresandreams Thank you for your reply to my comment. The video was well edited and the story well told, I was surprised how drawn into the saga I became. Your video on the Hilleberg Nammatj 2GT popped up in my recommended videos, as I was considering purchasing the tent (and now have) and was looking to see someone actually assemble it in adverse conditions. I'm planning a southbound Appalachian trail hike soon and was concerned my current tent might be up to the task if weather was consistently bad. One of the great things you learn from other people using the gear is all the little things you don't consider (such as ice-bound pegs) and the solutions they came up to resolve the problem. So, thanks so much for your videos!

@@ShiefVance What an increadible plan you have! I lived near both ends of the Appalachian Trail in the past, but only ever hiked shorter sections of if. Maybe one day I actually make it, or parts of the PCT, which I'm much closer to now. Yes, I've learned so much watching other people's videos, and also from the comments that I receive on my videos. Did you read them all? I believe that one person had the best tip for the ice-bound stakes. They suggested to hit them with a rock or hammer to break that bond. What an amazing idea, which would have helped me instead of taking the risk of abendoning them. Well, I wish an increadible adventure. You cannot go wrong with the Nammatj 2GT, although I would consider it quite heavy for such a long track. It will absolutely keep you warm and safe, though. I never once felt like it coudn't handle even the worst conditions. The storm in this video was the most intense, I think. It made the building at home shake, but the tent didn't care. Best of luck to you and lots of fun. I would love to hear from you how it went :)
