My general rules are: 1-light and bulky goes low 2-heavy goes high and tight (close to me), and either centered or distributed as evenly left and right as possible 3-time sensitive stuff (first aid, fire kit, rain cover/expedient shelter) goes in the top flap or other easily accessed pouch 4-batteries and electronics stay close to my body to lessen cold drain 5-if you don't want to loose it make sure its inside the pack or tied off somehow 6-if it needs to stay dry it goes in a dry sack (and maybe additional bags as well)

Ps that diagram sketch of ur gear packed in ur bag a little over half way into ur video was just what I needed to see. Im a visual learner so instantly I cud picture your gear, how u packed it, what u brought and how much easier it could be for me. I've been a backpacker for 3 years. I was a boy scout as a kid but all my life I suffered from over packing big time. This summer I finally was able to really dial my bag in. Ur sketch of ur pack and gear though was exactly what I needed. It simplified everything!!

Those reusable handwarmers are good for keeping chill off gear in the pack, you just boil them later on to reset and they're also good for the foot end of your bag at night :-)
@diomepa2100 3 роки тому
Always pack the same way, not only you find your stuff - you learn the balance. I put the tent in the special bottom compartment, and usually have an umbrella as well - helps really a lot setting camp in the rain.
@OutdoorguruGearReviews 3 роки тому
Hi Diomepa, Yes, same place! If the tent is not to heavy: yes, good option. Thanks for the tips! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
@blaineedwards8078 2 роки тому
I live in the Pacific Northwest and it rains a lot here. In my 30 or so years of hiking and backpacking all over this country, I have never, ever seen anyone on the trail with an umbrella. There is this thing called rain gear, you really should try it.
@petergilbert72 3 роки тому
Very nice clear and upbeat delivery as always Gijs. One thing occurred to me is that in heavy rain when arriving at your camping spot your tent is inside the pack. I use the bottom compartment for the tent so as to have easy access without disturbing anything else.
@OutdoorguruGearReviews 3 роки тому
Hi Peter, Thank you for sharing your way. Like a sad: there are more roads leading to Rome ;-). Usually when it rains I put the tent on top under the toplid. In this case I have easy access but not the weight in the bottom. Depends of course on what tent I bring... Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

Hi Gijs, another great video. Your method is very similar to mine - the main difference is the stove - if I'm using a liquid fuel stove, I always pack the fuel bottle in an external pocket so if the bottle leaks, it doesn't spoil everything else in my rucksack.
@OutdoorguruGearReviews 3 роки тому
Hi Andrew, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. This is just one of the stoves and I picked it because I know quite some people use it. I bring the Jetboil mostly when I am on my own. I have a super cookset from Trangia on petrol that I use with colder temperatures when out with the family and a Primus Eta for regular camping. And I love my classic MSR Whisperlite that is blackened from the petrol and some mistakes… A part of my collection is in the video on the Primus Firestick ukposts.info/have/v-deo/p5ymrYafq3iF1Xk.html Take a peek.

Like more water, her food, and a towel for her when she gets too wet for the tent. I do have her carry some of her things like the dog bags and her food/water bowl (always be careful to not overload your dog).

I have an75, 50 & 36L bags for various trekking lengths. I haven’t packed in a number of years but like the Boy Scout in me I’m prepared for any emergency that may arise. I live in NorCal but was raised in SoCal and lived through all the major earthquakes from the ‘71 Sylmar quake through the most recent 5.1 NorCal quake just days ago (10/25/22, San Jose, CA). Just repacked my 75 & 50L bags in case of emergency. I use my 36L bag as a bug-out bag in case of fire evacuation and my 22L bag for weather variable alternatives to go with my 36L! This video helped me pack my longer duration bags! I thank you for the advise, I’ve gotten a little rusty on how to pack!

The little things you bring up like not filling your water bladder all the way up is a game changer, that one little mistake could literally cost you your life, opening up your pack only to realize your water bladder has burst and soaked everything could be a serious problem depending on where you’re camping, like say on the side of a snow covered mountain 😳😆

Thanks for the Thumbs Up! No problem to fit a larger stove. I have a Primus Eta Power coolest that I bring when out with the family. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

There’s me thinking my 55l was too small. Easy when you know how. Great video.

Rick, I am going to suggest 50 - 55ltr with a down sleeping bag, but 65 ltr with a man made fibre sleeping bag. That is my current hypothesis. Plus many manufacturers 'cheat' or up-sell their capacity claims, not Osprey though in my experience. Kind regards.

Thanks for the great video. Got a question, if you don’t wanna bring a sleeping bag. What can you put in the sleeping bag compartment instead?
@OutdoorguruGearReviews 3 роки тому
Hi Grace, Thank for the nice words! Well... I would put clothing in there. It's 'light' and has the same feeling in your back. But put it in a waterproof bag just in case😉. I hope this helps. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

Thank you for this video. Where do you recommend placing a water filtering system?

Hi Susan, Depending in the size and type. I take my Grayl on the outside in the bottle holder and a MSR Micro above the middle inside the pack. Does this help? Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

I just want to say I really appreciate your attitude and as I scrolled down the comments I saw that u commented on just about every comment, I think that is awesome😊. BTW Where did you find those pants they look pretty cool. Have a wonderful day, your one of my favorite UKpostsrs 😊
@OutdoorguruGearReviews 6 місяців тому
Hi THHH, Shit happens: I just found your comment in my spam box...... Which is strange because nothing gets in my UKposts spam box. I was looking for a comment from somebody else that is in my private youtube mailbox but not visible in the UKposts comments. I don't get. Nevertheless: THANKS for the sweet comment! And yes, I try to comment back on comments. I love them. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
