If you're just starting the best pack is the one you own. Most folk I know already have a back pack somewhere. Just pull that one out of the closet. You don't need fancy gear to start day hiking
Just came into Utah from Texas. Been planning big trip for months. Decided to go on a solo hike up a mountain on day 3 and now I can barely move. Ran through a gallon of water 3/4 of the way through.... Barely made it down. 4200 foot elevation gain real quick from 5k foot elevation. Fell twice on the way down due to very loose gravel on 60 pluse degree decent in places. Definitely learned lessons. No amount of gear will make you a super hiker. After it was all done I have no regrets. Most beautiful views I've ever seen in my life.
"No amount of gear will make you a super hiker" But a lot of gear will certainly make you a poor hiker!
@@sheltermonkey6065 I agree. I most definitely regretted bringing some of the extra "crap". Added to the load and caused unnecessary fatigue.
@@SARLIN5 less is more.
Nice on the wipe shot! That really had me thinking!
It scared the heck outta me..
😂😂😂🤣
very good information for beginners. but I have one point I disagree with. for not much more than the cost of the Nalgene, you can get a 40 ounce Kleen Canteen, I have several, and I have dropped them from more than 8 feet, and only had them dent, you can also put them in a fire to purify water, and they are much easier to clean if they get funky. I have been involved in hiking and longer term woodscraft for almost 50 years, and still teach the same things you bring up to people just wanting to get started. Another point you didn't mention is, if you are going to go hiking, even if you are experienced, it is always good to 1) tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return, and 2) put a note on your dashboard of which trail you took, and when you plan to return so if your vehicle is in a day use area after dark, the park Rangers will have an idea where you might be,
Those last two are amazing tips, specifically number 2. That is so smart! I’m about to go do my first day hike which will most likely lead on into the night as I’m returning because sometimes as I’m just now getting into the hiking and camping world, I get carried away when I explore. Especially being new to Washington State, all the sites and scenery and just nature itself is just so mesmerizing and I get distracted sometimes. I’m good at trekking and used to be an avid hunter and know how to get home from the middle of nowhere, but injuries can happen and being stuck on a trail or an area I’m unfamiliar with and I get injured and can’t make it back then there’s a problem. Your tips definitely help settle my nerves on that knowing that I can last for a while until help arrives if needed.
Very nice! Thanks!
@@MavoTheGreat I hope you have a great hike, and stay safe. this is a great way to add some calm to our lives, I wish everyone could experience the woods more often.
Brilliant like the sticky note tip. Going malvern hills tmoro in worcestershire lets gooo
As a single female solo hiker I am *NOT* telling a possible ill meaning person my trail/plan. I tell SEVERAL trusted people my plan but I never leave it on my dash.
Agree with everything; from the trauma kit, to the Bic, to the Mora. Awesome round up. I’ve said it before (quite likely in your comment section!) and I’ll say it again: do not blow off getting high quality footwear. Might not need the space blanket, might not need the tourniquet, but you will - 100% guaranteed - need good footwear. Don’t try to cheap out with the $25 pair of “hiking boots” from Shanghai via Big 5. It’s not always true with everything in life, but I can tell you with boots, you get what you pay for. You don’t want to be ten miles from your car when you realize your boots, and your feet, aren’t going to make it. Then you might need that space blanket after all.
Amen I got some nic Columbia runners and just picked up a sun hat to prevent cancer and trekking poles loving hiking the local mountain bike park!
Great advice. I have purchased a few items based on your re commendations in last videos and have been very happy with them. As a personal preference, I would also include trekking poles. Mine have saved me from a few spills and twisted ankles.
1:06 i was like NO WAY!!!..lol..
Good info. One thing I would recommend is that if you use a bladder system, have a spare bottle of water with you. It is difficult to monitor your water supply with a baldder and you can tent to over hydrate. A few times I've ran it dry long before the hike was over.
i’ve been wanting to do some hikes with my sister and i just got some new boots from my grandpa that he used for a lot of outdoorsy activities so thank you so much for this!!
Nice elbow! 💪 Good thing you didn’t show the “real” thing there’s no emoticon for that one. Dude, you got freckles! Freckles are the coolest skin color effect.
I go with a 31 liter jakari savoy ya medium bag tons of options Molle but not super military chest and waist bands good padding and super tough 1000 to 1500 denier though it is pricey at $220 to $240. I use a pair of top of the line salmon hiking boots and sometimes I bring my hidden woodsman haversack and a good medical dry bag and a wool blanket that sits nicely on the bottom of my pack and a tarp plus I carry like 3 to 5 options for fire and a compass. I do carry the T1 lightweight flashlight phone a pier bank and a titanium whistle and a mid weight knife and a multitool along with some paracord tweezers titanium toothpick along with a backup keychain flashlight for water I use a lightweight version of the canteen used in the 1st and 2nd world wars and a water purifier in case I need more water. I’m also bald so a hat is a must for me.
The hands-free light is a great recommendation. I use it a lot during camping trips; it is so valuable.
Excellent video. Good list. May I suggest a SmartWater bottle and a Sawyer Mini. The total of the two is about $20 and I can filter with that from a spring, stream or puddle. I also take a small trowel and toilet paper. Never know...
Thanks for your insight! One can never stop learning about our sport.
very good advice. Just some suggestions, 1) get rid of the swat-t, get a CAT, it's extremely hard to put on a swat-t one handed. 2) add a SAM splint (I actually had to use one ), 3) for 35 bucks off amazon get a Baofeng UV-5R HAM radio and an ABREE antenna (YOU don't need a license to use it in an emergency and can be programed for NOAA) hope that helps.
I don't know if anyone has suggested it, but a CAT tourniquet is better than the SWAT-T, as it doesn't stretch like a rubber band can.
Great video Aaron thanks buddy enjoy your weekend
LOL!! I really was grossed out until i saw it was your arm good one !
Great info as always.
But living near where you live I cringe with the “mountains are too the west” thing. They are only to the west if you aren’t in them.
Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks for the tips bro! Great content 🙌⛰
Be careful carrying a lighter loose in your pack. I've had more than one that had released all of the gas, I carry them in small rigid containers. Also inventory and inspect your gear regularly.
Baby wipes are a must!
Great video. Thank you.
a glock 17 for the rakes
Great advice!
Good tips, thanks!
Convertible pants. If you are going high altitude, weather changes can be drastic enough to require full body cover, even in summer. It's good to be able to hike cool in shorts, and be able to cover your legs when the temperature drops and the wind is blowing. Or to start out covered in the cold early morning, and go sleeveless when it warms up.
Water filter. For hikes farther than 8-10 miles roundtrip, you will likely need to refill your 2 liter bladder and/or water bottles. I used my filter regularly, and was able to help other hikers that ran low on water. As an emergency fall-back, Iodine or other purification tablets are a good thing to carry. Be sure to research potential water sources on the trail before you leave to be sure you will have sufficient access.
Rock Climbing Helmet. Even though you are only hiking, some trails can turn steep and treacherous. Some trails may involve tight switchbacks in which the trail passes directly above the trail below. Loose rocks can easily be dislodged and fall on hikers below. Or if you are hiking next to a rock wall face or steep slope, the potential for falling rocks is high. A falling rock or a bad slip can result in a serious head injury. Learn the geography of your trail before you leave, or just be prepared.
I enjoy hiking tons of packs out there to🥴I love packs some are very nice.
LOOOOL, the wipe shot won my subscribe!
Thanks Lisa! Welcome to the GT family!
Why don't we add anti-bleeding (blood stop spray- stop saignement spray) sprays to our set!?
really good content gideonstactical. I broke the thumbs up on your video. Always keep up the exceptional work.
Great topic!
Good video, good information like always.
Ive hiked a lot but good tips man i will definitely use
Suggestions: I can’t find a pack that fits for the life of me. I tried tons of Gregory (great suspension system that loved my back but too big at 28L) and Osprey - likely not a good fitting brand for me. I def need adjustment possibility, and load lifters and belt for support due to injuries. Newbie hiker, female, 5’6” with a 17” torso. I want a supremely comfortable back panel and straps (who doesn’t?). The floppy, fashion bags with no belt and no support don’t work for me. Super frustrated. Just returned six packs. REI tried so hard! What about Hill People? They seem like they know what they’re doing? Mystery Ranch (not overly fond of three zip design but comfort is king (might be too long for me). 1-3-5 hr treks in urban forests and nature habitats. You will never see me do an overnight! Looking to anyone for advice with real knowledge or I will never get out in the wilds of NYC.
Love it!
😂😂😂😂😂 the wipe shot tho
Thant was useful. Thank you.
most helpful video thx
Glad to help.
I like stainless steel single walled water bottle so I can boil water if needed
Good information but I think for me it depends on how many people are hiking and you should all be prepared for the worst. For me think for in case
Not cotton balls, not dryer lint... Duck Tape. A Bic lighter and duct tape (wrap it into a ball) is an almost guaranteed fire, and the tape has multiple functions ( first aid, gear repair, etc...)
What about chips and soda can we take it to the hike
Totally!
Great video, but the one thing that intimates me, are ticks. Lyme infected ticks have gotten crazy in my area.
What camera where you using to record ?
A go pro 10
Have you ever thought about doing a review of the jaktkit knv2?
Can the combat wipes help my jock itch? Or will it burn
Compass and waterproof map? If no GPS ..
Can you tell me what is the O/R black mi-layer layer you wear under your Ferrosi? And any comments about it?
This was a very very very good video 👍🏆.
What kind of folding knife did you show right after talking about the Swiss army knife evogrip?
It’s the bk-40 video coming soon
Personally I would swap the lighter (or add) a good heavy duty firesteel. A lot more reliable than a lighter which could run out of fluid or break, but you have to make sure you get a good one you feel comfortable and confident using.
I use a nice camelback I got from the military.
1:09 no way man you got me so hard
I have to ask, why do I need an 18 liter pack for the list of equipment you're telling me I need?
That is just my suggestion and the size that I find works
@@gideonstactical thanks for the response.
My camelbacks always started stinking after a couple of days idk why they do that I guess it’s the rubber on the inside. I got where I didn’t use it very often, I found it easier to just hook a water bottle to my pack.
Dnt forget to pack a Gun 😂
how many miles is considered a day hike? i usually go 4 miles since i just started last month.
IMO I'd say about 10 miles. A hiker should be able to easily manage 10 miles on relatively easy terrain. But the short simple answer is whatever you can comfortably manage. Even a mile is a big distance for many ppl.
I use to walk 6 miles to and from work I wouldn't consider 4 miles a hike 😁
Any distance you travel from sunup to sundown is a day hike, as long as you are not stopping to camp. It could be 4 miles or 40 miles if you like to trail-run. Preparation really depends on hiking distance, hiker traffic, and proximity to civilization - how accessible is help when you need it.
Why do someone need a $79 or $131 Knife.. It is just a knife.. honestly I am asking - An armature beginner hiker.

You know your knives, but I’d suggest you watch a few hiking and backpacking videos, yourself. Many of your tips are well out of date. For example, most hikers and backpackers are using trail runners. Lighter and typically cheaper. For a day trip, let’s face it a lighter should do it. The first aid kit you suggest is way overkill and requires training. Also, a compass does little without a map. AT through hikers go 2000 miles with simple pocket knives. I’m sure you’re comfortable in the outdoors but this is not a great starter video for today’s beginner hiker.

Definitely check out the Mystery Ranch packs. I have a bunch of different brand packs and my Mystery Ranch Scree 32 is by far my favourite. (For comparison, I have 5.11 packs, Osprey packs, Deuter, ArcTeryx... and more.) The Scree 32 comes in a Medium and Large, and both are also adjustable. I was iffy about their zipper system, but I love it now; makes it really easy to get at anything in your back without having to dig down through the layers from the top.
@@frozentwiddlelumpso funny you wrote now. I was just looking at the new Coulee (sadly, they stopped making the smaller liter Scree). Not a heck of a lot of org, lil small, no place to leash keys, tri-zip has always been an 'I'm not so sure' but - that being said - I think it might be the one. Good timing!
