    My Basic Ultralight outfit and gear remains the same for one night or weeks. Only real weather and clothing concerns is the rain , it's warm to hot most of the time. Actually a nice rain feels quite good. For me the items that change according to the length of the trip is the amount of food and medications. I 'm in the habit of leaving a spare set of clean clothes in the vehicle for after the trip. When checking into a motel it helps if you have a reasonably clean appearance.

    Solo, I only boil water but I want a low and wide pot for my dog to clean the pot.

What are your experiences with it when it raining heavily for some time? I have sealed the seams and around where all the loops on the outer rain fly are so it should be pretty waterproof right?

    Nice setup as always. You made some great points on the packs. I have struggled with "THE" pack at times. I bought the new bridger but the 55 Liter version. Very robust like all mystery ranch packs are. I was torn at first between buying it or the black hyperlite mountain gear junction 2400 or 3400 packs. Was my gear light enough? or packable enough to fit in the hyperlite? Is the hyperlite comfortable? I dont carry much camera gear myself so i probably could have gone with the hyperlite. So far i am happy with the bridger 55 but i did have some trouble fitting my sleeping bag into its bottom sleeping bag compartment. Mainly my fault because i went back to a synthetic sleeping bag and i'm putting it into a roll top wet dry bag rather than a compression sack. It still fit in the end but i had to unclip the packs divider and put the sleeping bag into the pack from the top drawstring opening and not through its bottom zippered compartment. But i soon plan to try out a down quilt, so packability im sure wont be a problem. Stay safe guys! Hike on!

    Wow, Eric! 38-42 lbs.? That's a ton of weight. I hope you are able to shed some of those lbs. off as you will enjoy it a lot more. True, the lightweight backpacks aren't meant to carry much weight but that's the idea. Cut down your total weight and your pack won't be so uncomfortable. I carried 38 lbs. up to Colchuck Lake in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness and thought I was going to die! I now have a GG Mariposa with a total load of under 19 lbs. including water, food and fuel. Sweet!

    I'm watching as many of your vids ( and few others) as possible currently. My wife and I starting over with backpacking this year. Been nearly 30 years for us both to say we did it much (we're 50 and 55 years old). So this is a loaded question, but I'm trying to decide between the 55 or 65 ltr packs for both of us. They will likely be Mystery Ranch Bridger's. We are planning to do 3 night trips this year. (Havasupai the end of March and Kings Peak in Utah mid August). We will always be splitting the common gear (tent, food, cooking supplies, etc), so that makes me lean towards the 55ltr. I'm twice the size of my wife so will carry a heavier load. But will I wish I had a bigger 65 ltr if we go for say a 5 nighter someday? Would you care to offer generalized advice? Thanks for the vids!! I'm taking lotsa notes & am looking forward to getting back into this hobby.

      We both have the Bridger 55's. I'm still torn thinking I should have went with the 65, but too late now. Too expensive to change. On our recent Havasupai trip my pack was 40#'s. I felt like I had the bare minimum too. Not in the whole UL terms, but what I needed for 3 nights and 4 days. That 40#'s included 3ltr of water. The 11 mile hike out with 2700 vertical scared me. I used 2 liters and will work on water loading amounts more. The Mystery Ranch packs are really nice and worth the cost and weight. Onto planning our next one (if it will ever stop SNOWING !)

    I am not sure what to make of your gear. You have a light weight pack and a quilt and then a bunch of heavy gear. I don’t own that pack, I am in the Zpacks train but without even reviewing it I am sure with 42 pounds it was not a joy. It’s not the tool for the job. I think your Mystery Ranch pack is the old Dana Design pack company. I owned one back in the 90s and it was certainly robust, but also an anchor. It weighed about as much as my base weight empty. I think your gear all has to match up. I love my quilt but in the winter I prefer my Western Mountaineering sleeping bag, I just don’t think a quilt is the tool for the job come winter. I have multiple tents, packs and sleep systems. My three season gear is all Zpacks and I love their gear. Not so much in the winter. I hike with my dog too. We did this Long Trail in Vermont this year and next summer it’s the Colorado Trial. The Duplex is a palace for one and a dog. My dog loves the trails more than anything. I am much older than you and like to do big days so weight is very important to me. Much more than it was when I was young. I love carrying a UL pack and I could never go back to a heavy pack again. Some pack for camp and others pack for hiking. It’s all good and there is no wrong way. I can see that Mystery Ranch pack being great if I was still rock climbing in the Tetons and hauling climbing gear and camping gear. Their suspension and hip belt are bomb proof. If you do review the Hyperlite pack please review it with a much lighter load. It’s not meant for 42 pounds. Take care

    How do you feel about using a traditional map and compass for land navigation? I see a lot of backpacking channels pushing technology and GPS. I have nothing against using an app and downloading a map with my trail. However, tech fails, and batteries die at the most inconvenient time. Thanks!

    How many calories a day do you each eat? I almost completely filled up my bear vault 500 with meals just for me on a 3 day 2 night. I planned for 3500-4000 a day depending on snacks, but I usually burn at least 4500 calories a day backpacking. I donno how you all survive with 3 days and 4 nights worth of food for in a similar sized can.

      I thought it was pretty cool. Although I won't rave about it. I was warm, comfortable, and slept well, but I wasn't cozy. I missed the coziness factor that comes with a more traditional sleeping bag.

      The quilt review was my question too. I’ve always been a sleeping bag person, but am about to try a Zenbivy Light bed. I can’t get behind sleeping on a rubbery pad with nothing under me, and the Zenbivy has a sheet w/hood that fits over a pad. Maybe you’d like that better?
