I wish I had known about some of these things. Because I too experienced some of these problems. I have titanium steaks, because they are strong, and very light. I have a tri fuel stove.
Titanium Stakes are great Shawnn, nice to hear from you, I have a set of titanium as well they just didn't hold as well as I wanted them to though I suspect it was because the ground was so soft up in volcano.
Thank you for your lessons learned! When I will “do” the GDMBR, I’ll be preparing for about two years too. Next year July I am Planning to start going southbound. Bikepacking is complete new for me. New bike, new gear BIG plan. But I can do it. I have much experience in bicycle trips for the last 50 years. On a racing bike and mainly on a recumbent. This time it is new. I am looking forward to this adventure, also the start of my retirement. Will you post along your Gdmbr? Thanks!
You're going to do just great! I'm looking forward to hearing about your experience. Yes I am posting videos as I go along here on the gdmbr. I'm in Grants at the moment and have been delayed due to a severe mechanical issue which I expect to repair tomorrow when the parts arrive. And then it will be full steam ahead. Check out my channel you'll see my videos. Thanks 😊
