- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- I have never done a gear hack video. But, over the past few months, I wanted to string together some hacks that I use on my backpacking trips. In this video, I give you 10 tips that I use for hacks during backpacking trips. Links are below for some of the gear hacks. There is even a guest appearance at the end of the video from a special guest. #backpackinggear #hiking #ultralightbackpacking

always appreciate your time and effort you spent making your content I admire you for that, am proud to be a subscriber To you channel and always 🤝 will be, keep up the fantastic work my friend success and abundant blessings is coming your way soon🌺❤️BIG LIKE 39 🏵️🍒💐)
You are so kind! That made my day. Appreciate it very much. When I get a comment like that, it makes all the time of video and editing worth it. 😊🙏
Two quick tips:
I bring a small sharpie and mark my fuel cans after every burn. When I get up to 15 marks the can gets put in my overlanding kitchen and gets used up Jeep camping.
I bring sugar free Ricola's and pop one whenever I'm on a long climb. It helps keep your mouth wet when you start sucking air and the menthol opens up the nasal passages so you can keep your pace up.
That is a genius idea!!! I’m going to start doing that with a sharpie. Excellent!! Crow✌️
Excellent tips. Thanks for wonderful sharing 👍🤗
You are very kind! Thanks so much for watching it. Crow✌️
Great hacks which are absolutely worth thinking about.
Appreciate it! Yeah, this was fun to put together. Crow✌️
I’m wanting to sew in a foot box on my quilts too.
Lots of great hacks for the outdoors. I like the idea of aqua clip on your belt for some hiking after you get to camp.
Great hack for the Ribeyes for the first night.
Who was that great looking guy at the end 😂🤣😂😂
Appreciate it! I don’t know who that guy was at the end…he wandered in the campsite with Backpacker Bob…😂✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING 😂🤣😂😂
Found you thru Jeremiah Stringer. GREAT tip on the travel lint roller. I am from the south & never would have thought of that.
Appreciate it! Jeremiah is a great guy! I think he helped me film this video on the B roll. Appreciate you coming to the channel. Crow✌️
Good tips! Especially the ribeye!
Oh yeah…love me a ribeye at camp. 😊✌️
Very good and interesting your presentation my friend 👍
Thanks so much! You are very kind. Crow✌️
Thanks for the tips. I have been taking ribeye steaks the first night camping this summer. They are sooooo good right on the coals
Oh yeah! I love a ribeye on the first night of a trip. Appreciate ya! Crow✌️
All those hacks work for me. I know Jason would make a cameo. Lol
😂✌️. Appreciate it! I remember when you made a cameo at the end of my video on Cumberland Island. It was a classic. 😊🙏
Good tips and a lot of them I also use!
Appreciate it! This was fun to do. Crow✌️
Great tips, Crow. I've used a tictac container in the past for ibuprofen and vitamins.
Yeah, that works for me too. Ibuprofen always goes with me…😂✌️
Great gear suggestions Crow!
Appreciate it! This was a lot of fun to put together. Hope all is well.
Wow Really Amazing 10 BACKPACKING GEAR HACKS This Your Video That's Great! Thanks for sharing with us! Keep it up Good Job!😍😍😍😍😍
Appreciate it very much! Thanks
For watching it. Crow✌️
Some really good tips, Crow. I like the Tic Tac container. Good idea. As we age, unfortunately we are probably going to be needing to carry more meds with us! SMH!
I have one for you...what is the eventual downfall of most of these little backpack stoves? Corrosion from moisture, overtime, right? Well every dehydrated meal comes with those little moisture absorbing packets in them that we usually just throw away. Why not take that packet and just slip it in with your stove? Change it out with a fresh one every time that you cook another meal. You're packing it out and throwing it away, anyway. Just slip it in with your stove and let it absorb moisture from around your stove as you're hiking (or biking, or kayaking) out.
Brad, that is a brilliant idea!!! Love it!! I’m going to do that as well. Yeah, I am starting to put a bunch of pills in that tic-tac container…but, I’m getting old and don’t remember what the pills are for…😂😂😂✌️
Great idea
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING 😂😂😂
@@GoneFeralWithSquidly Thanks! I have my moments! 🤷🏻♂️😂
@@mountainsmoore3657 yeah, I read that and thought, “that’s genius!”
Nice ! In regards to small containers that you may have laying about - contact cases and old timey film canisters both work very well....
Oh yeah…very good idea. Appreciate that. Crow✌️
Cool ideas. I see you do have the fire making gear needed to save you from the cold with your fire plugs and bellow. You must have left them home. LOL. Fanny pack, hmm. I am diggin the water bottle cap. Simple but great idea. I take a ribeye please! Have a great day.
Yeah, left them…was thinking I didn’t need them and that it might cause issues with the airline…should have put them in…along with more TP…😂😂😂✌️
I like the fire kit. I’ll bet that helps focus your blowing on the fire.
Absolutely! Thanks so much for watching it. Crow✌️
Instead of the contractor bag, I use my GG 1/8 pad to organize my gear (and as a back panel for my pack and a mat for stretching). Good tips.
Great idea. I might start using mine as well. I carry it anyway. Probably could use it. Appreciate it! Crow✌️
I live in London ready to walk of the West Highland way in Scotland in a couple of months. I've watched Endless amounts of camping videos but honestly dude this one comes top of the pile. What a cracking bit of information!! Will be using at least 4 of these tips. Thanks bud👍🏼
You are very kind. I love song these. I hope it helps. I would love to hike in Scotland someday. My grandmother came to America from Scotland when she was a little child. Before she passed, she would always talk about how she loved Scotland. Thanks for watching the video. Crow✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING maybe Some day you can chase your roots back and where better place to start then walking the West Highland way. May God rest her soul brother 🙏🏼
Some great ideas there mate.
Appreciate ya! Crow✌️
Wow - some awesome tips - like the tic tac container idea! Never heard of the towel, but super cool! The firestarters are cool as well! Looks as though you have some great approaches to organizing!
~Karen & Shannon WOY
Thanks Karen and Shannon!! You are very kind. Appreciate you watching it. Crow✌️
Genuine and superb. Such a great channel, thank you for showing those essentials..
Great narrative. Wonderful work ⚘
Appreciate it! I had fun doing this video. Crow✌️
I use cotton balls or dryer lint soaked in cooking oil or Vaseline for a emergency fire starter in wet conductions, I also use an empty chap stick tube that I pressed in my deodorant to keep the pits fresh. Contact lens cases work great for storing sun block, or cooking spices. I also use a large sheet of Tyvek cut to the size of my tent for aground cloth, super light and tough. A trash compactor bag works great for a pack liner to keep dry goods dry. I really like the small rag your using great video! Cheers! 🥃
These are awesome suggestions! It got my mind moving on some of these ideas. Appreciate the comment! Great stuff! Crow✌️
Good stuff there Crow. The white contractor bag also allows you to see any creepy crawlers that want to hitch a ride while your packing up. Bravo.
So true! I’m not a fan of the creepy crawlers. 😂✌️
Some good ideas there Mr Crow
Appreciate it! I love some gear hacks. ✌️
Very good tips and hacks
Appreciate it John! I love this kind of stuff. Crow✌️
Well done Crow! I need more ribeyes in my life.
Ribeyes are heavenly…and taste better on the campfire. 😂✌️
Tic Tac containers are GREAT for matches too. I stick the striker to the side of the container. They dispense one match at a time - they're great.
That is a great idea! I may steal that.✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING I steal ideas all the time!
😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing
Thanks Naomi! Appreciate it. Crow✌️
That's some really great hacks, brother 😁✌️
Appreciate it! I had fun with this one. ✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING I could tell, it was infectious and made me smile 😊
Moms ROCK!
Thanks for watching! ✌️
Good video. Nice tips.
Medicine - I use a mini altoids tin. It's big enough to hold my prescription meds for a couple night trip and some Alieve, Ibuprofin, Benidryl, and Immodium. I also add a couple cotton balls so the pills don't rattle. The normal tic-tac container, I use to put salt & pepper packets that I pick up at fast food places (Mostly Chick-Fil-A)
Nice hack for the Get Out Gear blanket. I've been looking for a light weight summer solution.
My firestarter kit is a large tic-tac container. In it I have a couple of Mickwick firestarters, mini bic lighter, small fero rod, and a Gerber Dime Multi-tool. I also have a bellows tube (doesn't fit in the tic-tac container. It's the collapsible handle from a Dollar Store campfire cooking fork.
Permethrin is great for a general treatment. I ditched the Deet and switched to Picaridin. Deet eats plastic and Picaridin doesn't. Deet also makes me feel weird/funny and makes my skin tingle.
Great comment Doc! I like the ideas you have. I might try the Altoids container idea. And I have been using Picardin lotion. It works great. Thanks my friend! Crow✌️
Very nice sir. Good stuff.
Appreciate it! ✌️
All of your tips are excellent tips Brad! Happy Hiking
Appreciate it! I had fun doing this. Crow✌️
Nice hacks.. like the ticktak idea. my 7’ x 4’ tyvek sheet is my go-to ground cloth. And at $7-$8 no biggie. I also carry another tyvek, 3’ x 5’ and maybe unfold it all the way or not, but use it like ur compactor bag. Cheers
Appreciate it David! Yeah, Tyvek is such a great option. Thanks for watching this. Crow✌️
Those ticks always end up in the strangest places! Great hacks! Need to mod out my get out gear blanket to get the foot box. You sold me on getting the enigma earlier this year. Good stuff!!
Love me some Enigma! ✌️
Very good, Crow.
We’re never too old are too experienced for new ideas.✌️
Appreciate it! I’m actually getting too old for new tricks…😂✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING 😄
Great video and hacks! Love the lint brush idea. I would have to add another hack, hiker wine, to go with those Ribeyes ;)
😂😂😂✌️
Good tips/gear options. All practical and real life use. 🤙🍻
Appreciate it Mark! 😊✌️
Very nice. Ways to make thing work more efficiently are always a bonus. 🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Appreciate it Ian! This was fun to film. Crow✌️
I use my Thinlight pad as my gear organizer while I sit or kneel on it when rummaging thru my pack
Great idea! Yeah, those things are great. Crow✌️
Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks my friend! 😊🙏
Awesome info
Appreciate it! I had fun with this. Crow✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING my pleasure
😎 but don't use the towel on hot stuff if it's wet ouch lol
Good point! ✌️
I always do a steak and fried mushrooms on my first night 😁
Love that! Love some mushrooms with steak! Appreciate ya! Crow
Lettuce of choice? That is funny.
😂✌️
Great hacks! Use a few of them myself. 👍
Appreciate it! Hope all is well Tom! Crow✌️
Great vid m8 nice food 👌 👍 😋
Thank you. I loved putting this together. Lots of fun. Thanks for watching it. Crow
Love that tic tac box idea! Gonna use that one from now on. I also use the quick top bottle toppers. They are great. A hack i use in colder weather is reflectix. I put it under my sleeping pad for insulation and because it's flexible i can use it in the hammock or under the hammock between it and the underquilt 😁 thanks for sharing! Great video!
Great idea with the reflectix. Yeah, that stuff is great. Appreciate you always watching. Hope all is well. Crow✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING All is well. Life is full. For my half century around the sun year i decided to do more things without my phone. Unplugging for increments definitely has benefits. Praying much peace & many happy trails ur way!
Why has it never occurred to me to use my fanny pack when I go kayaking?? I need to get a waterproof one. Great tips, Crow!
Yeah, that Fanny pack has some miles on it. Hilltop Packs makes a great one. It comes with me on every kayak trip. Appreciate it! Crow✌️
gatewood, or go lite poncho tarp.....it is a rain, and pack cover, plus a shelter.....jacks r better stealth quilt.....for sleeping and a replacement for a puffy.....also things to keep your head and neck protected.....this makes quite the saving.....
Great ideas! Appreciate that. Awesome comment. Thanks for watching it Phillip. Crow✌️
I can't help but chuckle when you guys over the pond say 'fanny pack'...the former word is counted as quite rude over here, we call them 'bum bags'...The lint roller is a good idea.
😂😂😂… I have heard that before. I forget about that when thinking of you guys in the UK watching the videos. I like “bum bags” I’m going to start using that. 😊✌️
Great video thank you. And I don’t even hike LOL
😂✌️. Appreciate it! 😊🙏
Fire starter for me is either just drier lint or a cotton ball with some Vaseline on it 😁✌️
I have used those as well. They work awesome. I may show that on the next gear hack video. If I do, I’ll give you a shout out.✌️
Sounds great.
Good tip on those copper gaskets.👍👍
I've always wondered.......what's the reason / advantage of wrapping the headers?
Did you mean this comment for another video? If not, Im confused, you may have to clarify. 😊✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING🤣yes sir, ,that comment was supposed to be added to a different video.
Your video I also enjoyed. Especially the tic tac case for meds. tip Take good care Crow.
👍👍
Ok, I feel better now. 😂 I kept trying to figure out which too that was referring to…😊✌️
Hey instead stead of that lint roller get a washable lint roller ball. You can rinse it off and it stays sticky. And it can double as a “broom” for your tent floor and a muscle roller
Great idea!
Good tips! I like picaridin over deet myself, especially since you can spray it on just about everything and it won't destroy your plastics like deet will. I've had some shoes get ruined by deet. As for permethrin, man I love that stuff. Started using it this summer and have been on a few trips hiking for hours through some tall thick weeds and never had a tick on me yet other than a dead one that was on my sock and never made it up to my skin and one that was on my pants which had probably just landed there off of a weed which I then just gave a little flick to send it off.
I just started using the Picardin on my last trip. I used the lotion form in the high Uintas and it worked great! I will be using it from now on. Thanks for watching my video Joe! Crow✌️
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING I use the lotion on my skin and I use a spray on my shoes.
Or some lettuce of choice!!🤣🤣✊️🔥✌️💚
I have a chronic lettuce problem...😁✌️💚
Yeah...I didn't want to offend the vegans...lol
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING lmao
😂😂😂
Great. Instead of the fire blower I use a cheap paper fan
Great idea! Thanks for watching it. Crow✌️
I always take a coupe days extra of my BP pills just in case. I don't see a problem with spraying the sawyer on the outside of your clothes. works fine for me.
Thanks for watching it. Yeah, I do the same with thyroid pills. Always good, just in case. Crow✌️
Does the 1/8” pad help with warmth at all as well? I live in Maine and hike/backpack in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. I’m switching to a quilt and recharge UL pad from Paria. I don’t want more weight, but don’t want to be cold
I think it does to some extent. But, I use it primarily to keep my pad from getting a puncture. What is the R-value on the UL Paria pad?
@@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING Paria gives it 3.5, but they don’t use the official ASTM C518 test.
Sawyer works great I use picarden
I have been using Picardin as well. It has been working great. I used the lotion in the UINTAS and it was awesome! Appreciate ya! Crow✌️
👍😎👍
😊✌️
First...49 seconds after posting! LOL!
Appreciate it Brad. 😂✌️
Mmmmmm … ribeyes
They were delicious. You should have gotten one...
Hello sir, iam your subcriber from bali! Come on join for hike in tropical culture land!!
That would be awesome! But, I imagine that would be expensive. Maybe someday. 😊✌️
