    Hey, what about Elevate 22 l,
    do you have experience with this pak?

  2. @lorddantan on February 5, 2025 at 4:31 pm

    Is apple map good enough for hiking in all terrains?

  3. @z0uLess on February 5, 2025 at 4:34 pm

    Most of the gear you are using have more weight efficient alternatives, but I guess every hiker has a different approach to hiking and I am more into the sport of it.

  4. @Wartal on February 5, 2025 at 4:36 pm

    I’m going Nepal in March and i want to record myself during hike. i’m thinking to take with me gorilla tripod or peak design tripod as it full size tripod and shoots will be from higher level than from gorilla tripod. What tripod should i take with me ?

  5. @alndi3 on February 5, 2025 at 4:37 pm

    Path Projects shorts are the best. I have 4 pairs lol. Their underwear is good too.

  6. @ParkourSchweiz on February 5, 2025 at 4:40 pm

    Check out the Nitecore NU21 headlamp and also check out the powerbanks NB10000 and NB20000.

  7. @Whindiart on February 5, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    Hyperlit😒

  8. @Kathy-Daniel on February 5, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    That Southwest has been going for a few years! Shame they moved production to Mexico rather than Maine, heard they’ve got some production inconsistencies.

  9. @scihiker on February 5, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    Hi Kraig thank you so much for this list. How do you film when you walk?Does someone film you or do you use drones? Thank you so much

  10. @matevzkrajnik94 on February 5, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    Have you thought about the Peak Design Capture Clip for mountinf the camera on the backpack strap? I love using it, it’s so quick to secure the camera onto the strap and take it off for a shot.

  11. @calebe16 on February 5, 2025 at 4:45 pm

    Hello Kraig,
    I was curious about one thing. Don’t you use any filters to control the shutter speed on your camera and drone?
    Could you tell your approach on it?
    I’ve been starting to make videos and everybody always talk about the 180 rule. I just figured it’s really difficult to get the 1/50 shutter speed and correct exposure. That’s why I was looking into the variable ND filters, but noticed they are quite expensive.

  12. @JoaoRodrigues_photo on February 5, 2025 at 4:47 pm

    Hello Craig! I really love all of your hiking videos, they are truly inspiring and really well assembled. They give a nice calm vibe.
    I was looking for some shorts: do you recommend 5 inch or 7 inch shorts? keep up the amazing work buddy!

  13. @madi3006 on February 5, 2025 at 4:48 pm

    I’ve been waiting 4 years for you to use darntuffs. The next thing you’ll love will be zpacks duplex

  14. @brebellato on February 5, 2025 at 4:49 pm

    He’s such a hiker, look at him. AMAZING!!!!!

  15. @eldiablo2044 on February 5, 2025 at 4:49 pm

    I can vouch for darn tough socks. Been wearing them everday for over a decade and when you wear them out they will send you a new pair.

  16. @playarabbit on February 5, 2025 at 4:50 pm

    Thanx for doing these videos man, having a wife and kids traveling the world from time to time it’s great to watch your videos to think more minimalist mindset in packing so I can make sure we’re not traveling heavy

  17. @stonedapeadventures on February 5, 2025 at 4:52 pm

    peax backcountry duo headlamp, has an awesome red light and battery.

  18. @BarisDuygu-q2u on February 5, 2025 at 4:54 pm

    Bro, have you also boots? Or do you usually run always in shorter shoes?

    Also have you ever tried barefoot shoes?

  19. @rosek2967 on February 5, 2025 at 4:54 pm

    So you finally went with Darn Tough socks!! Can’t believe it’s taken you so long to find out how great these socks are. They’re the only hiking socks I’ll wear. Welcome aboard–better late than never! 😁

    do you use gtx version of salomon speedcross or regular?

  22. @marcheller on February 5, 2025 at 5:00 pm

    what app was ist at the beginning?

  23. @MarieVaugn on February 5, 2025 at 5:00 pm

    A very extensive list! My favorite thing to take with me is my HomeFi hotspot, it’s been so helpful.

  24. @eks3 on February 5, 2025 at 5:00 pm

    Do you use the Gore-tex versions of your trail runners, or the ones without (breathability vs. waterproofing is more important?) Thank you! πŸ™‚

  25. @rodrev_hiking6757 on February 5, 2025 at 5:04 pm

    The HMG waypoint 35 is an AMAZING pack . I bought it for my GF . I still use my LiteAF 40L , my Girl only needs to carry her big Agnes Rapide SL sleeping Pad and Ugq Quilt plus her layers and some food.
    I carry our Dyneema Tent plus cooking Kit and Food plus rest of my Gear. For Sunhoodie i swear on the Black Diamond Alpenglow Pro

  27. @guitarwithtom6041 on February 5, 2025 at 5:04 pm

    Hey Kraig, thanks for the content. Recently came across the whole PFAS debate in outdoor gear. I think many of the brands you use have a commitment to become PFAS free, would you be able to clarify what is and what isn’t PFAS free currently?

  28. @Am-ug9np on February 5, 2025 at 5:05 pm

    Why did you switch to a white pack? Trying to decide which color I want

  29. @FinancialCharles on February 5, 2025 at 5:06 pm

    can you bring microspikes in a carryon luggage? i flew to san francisco last year to hike in yosemite during the winter and left my spikes at my moms house because i didnt know if i was allowed to fly back with them in my carry on luggage lol

  30. @DaveCraige on February 5, 2025 at 5:06 pm

    Great ideas. Thanks for sharing your gear ideas openly.

  31. @thisismelissalang on February 5, 2025 at 5:06 pm

    Do you wear any kind of watch to record/track your hikes?

  32. @Walker82kg on February 5, 2025 at 5:07 pm

    Buy slowly it took me one year to buy my kit

  33. @eric55406 on February 5, 2025 at 5:07 pm

    It’s interesting to see both the updated gear as well as what is still favorite after being used for a while. That old favorite gear is actually the best recommendation as you must have tried different gear to realize what is best. I’ve dialed in my gear this past year and will be doing the Four Pass Loop in June 2024, inspired by one of your past videos πŸ™‚

  34. @GamingLoadown101 on February 5, 2025 at 5:10 pm

    which videos did you record exclusively with the Iphone?

  35. @DagUTube on February 5, 2025 at 5:10 pm

    Great, and clear. Thanks! I still need the tutorial to pack everything (at least camping gear + clothes)n in this small bag

  36. @FreeWilly22 on February 5, 2025 at 5:10 pm

    Do you carry any sort of wildlife protection? Sprays, whistles, etc?

  37. @bv6599 on February 5, 2025 at 5:12 pm

    So helpful. Thank you for updating this video!

  38. @seniorbrusko on February 5, 2025 at 5:12 pm

    do you have a video on how you pack your gears?

  39. @jonathanlanderos2266 on February 5, 2025 at 5:13 pm

    Those hats are cool! Might try them

  40. @notme756 on February 5, 2025 at 5:15 pm

    what suncreen do you use?

  41. @hvks2y5 on February 5, 2025 at 5:18 pm

    When you’re on the trail what settings are you shooting with? so you set it up and record & move quick

  42. @javieralvarez3280 on February 5, 2025 at 5:19 pm

    Don’t forget to mention that the most important thing you have is your body. Which keeps you in optimal conditions of flexibility and exercise to be able to do all those routes. Could you comment one day in a video on what type of maintenance exercise you do to keep your body up to date?

  43. @mikaeleedelamarter9312 on February 5, 2025 at 5:19 pm

    Hi, what do you store your food in to keep critters out?

  44. @gollumei on February 5, 2025 at 5:20 pm

    Have you ever tried toe socks?

  45. @razvanmarinescu9062 on February 5, 2025 at 5:20 pm

    Hello
    what would be your choice between HMG 2400 and HMG Waypoint 35, for 2-3 day trip?
    Best wishes

  46. @dastanabilev on February 5, 2025 at 5:21 pm

    Craig, how do you hike for 3-4 days with 35l backpack? This is mystery for me.

  47. @dapr9939 on February 5, 2025 at 5:21 pm

    Is MacBook Air really enough for editing videos in 2024?

  50. @TimmyCarver on February 5, 2025 at 5:27 pm

    I knew this was coming before 2023 ended have a blessed year’s end Adams!
