I really like this gear loadout! Except for being a hammock camper, I see a lot of similarities to items I like to use. I'm looking forward to watching your JMT adventure. I can't wait to find out how you did on not using TP!
Yes, exactly. This one is iPhone specific, but just plug it in (you have to download an app for it) then you can copy any files you want onto it in the field. Then you can delete them from your phone if storage is running low. It was the iXpand Drive from SanDisk
@@justinhitsthetrail5225 Excellent. Thank you. I was wondering how people video so much JMT content on their phones without running out of space. Problem solved. I'm JMT 2022 aspiring.
I will do the jmt this year! Thank you for sharing . Im still debating wether to bring my smart wool 150 base layer bottoms or my 250 baselayer bottom. Which one would you recommend? I will hike in august
I hiked in August as well. I had 250 bottoms, but aside from that I only had shorts, and I was comfortable. If you’re going to be wearing pants over then you could probably get away with 150s, but it also depends on how cold tolerant you are 🤷♂️
I carry a pee bottle. A life saver in bad/cold weather when you've got to go. I keep it in a black stuff sack so it's out of sight. One year I left it at Horseshoe Meadow. Got lucky with the weather at night though.

Cool gear list ... Tell me about that mini hard-drive device ... can you transfer photos and video from a smart-phone to it in the field?

I'm shopping for a new bag. After the JMT what was your opinion of the Enlightened quilt?
I’m still using it as my go to! If I know I’ll be around freezing temps more often I’d go with a 10 degree one

So many gear geeks. So few naturalists.

Hey “Justin Hikes”! JMT hike went well. Looks like you’ve been doing some hiking on the Colorado Trail. That is on my to do list for sure!
