    Darwin, I agree with your principal in general, but in the summer, my clothes get soaking wet from sweat. I don’t want to sleep in sweaty, wet clothes so I take an extra underwear and an extra T-shirt. I put them away in the morning and put the still-wet clothes from the previous day back on. I take two spare pair of socks because they take forever to dry out and I hate hiking with wet feet.

    • @JoeZUGOOLA

    • @lotuscarguy
      @lotuscarguy Рік тому +1

      The weather on the A/T is almost always humid, especially in the summer. My clothes never dried out overnight. The forest floor is always damp, and little daylight penetrates the forest canopy. It's just a situation you have to live with.

  • @DJ-kg6zq

    Full length sleep clothes are sooo nice. It’s hard to fall asleep with your legs and arms sticking to everything. And it keeps your expensive bag clean. And in an emergency having dry clothes could save your life.

    • @nancyst.john-smith3891
      @nancyst.john-smith3891 Рік тому

      This! Long underwear appropriate fabric for you and the season. It’s double duty. It will be great pajamas and will keep you warm if you get wet unless you are crazy enough to prefer cotton long johns. If you’re in the desert cotton is great because moisture will cool you down as the cotton retains it. If you are in cooler country choose synthetics or wool because they will keep you warm even when wet. If you are in Arctic conditions definitely choose wool!!

    I live in Washington and always bring a spare pair of clothes. I normally use them to sleep in, but it rains a lot and it's pretty cool here. So if my clothes get wet they may not dry and having a spare set of dry clothes is essential

    On my last 40 mile hike I brought mid weight Capilene long underwear and extra socks (summers in Alaska). Use a one liter platy bag to shower (I bring an extra lid with pinholes in it for a shower spray pattern and some Dr Bronner’s) fluffed on some baby powder (a little in a ziplock), took 2 ibuprofen and a Benadryl, put on the long johns, and play cards in the tent until I got sleepy. It was wonderful!!

    I wear pants, that turn to shorts, pack 1 extra shirt (long or short but opposite of what I'm wearing), socks, puffy, rain jacket. I always want a shirt so that of I'm sweating I can put a dry one on to avoid being wet and prevent hypothermia. My pants are never sweaty enough to need changing. Socks are a must. Puffy is a must to stay warm at night.

      Washing in water, assuming water is available. I hike in lots of places where it's not so plentiful. You can also tie clothing to the outside of your pack and let it air out. That helps a lot. That being said, I will carry the extra weight just to have clean underwear.

    Canada called with its -40°c winters, less clothing means death in that instance. I'll take my chances with a few extra layers in this case.

    Hike your own hike is right. I personally like to enjoy myself and I'm not afraid of a little exercise. I allow plenty of time to rest, cook and enjoy the sights.
    Some folks want to deny themselves a good experience by, under packing and rushing through as fast as possible. No hot food, cold, not a comfortable bed, ultralight expensive flimsy gear to save weight. Just so they can rush back to the gym and exercise. 😅
    Get your exercise on the trail, sleep in, cook bacon, take pictures, fish. Live a little.

    I bring an extra pair of socks and underwear and a thermal base layer for sleeping. That's it... usually, but I cannot stand the smell of campfire smoke on me and if I go with somebody I know is going to want a fire I usually take an extra pair of clothes. I don't like that feeling of my legs sticking together when I'm trying to sleep either, so I'll take the thermals even if I know I won't need them. Plus, that's not skin sticking together, but sweat and dirt and oil and I'd rather trap it in something I can easily wash than let it absorb into my sleeping bag.
