This is the second of your videos I've watched, and I'm really enjoying your humility and practical, down to earth, conversational style.

Hey bro, you've got some solid production here for just beginning! Keep it up and you'll be growing in no time! Welcome to the KZitem game! I think the #1 mistake new backpackers make is taking TOO LONG to get out in the first place! This is usually partnered with the #2 big mistake, believing you need all the "best/brand/store-bought" backpacking gear to start. My philosophy, just get out there... learn as you go, and improve along the way! Just keep the journey "Backcountry Forward"! Keep Moving Forward!

Great list. I'm sure most of us are guilty of a few of these. Hopefully this will help others to not follow our footsteps.

I don't like to hike fast If wanted to get out as fast as I can I would stay home. I like to enjoy the trip. Some of the stuff you said you don't need is the difference in life and death when you get lost or injured.

Great job on the video. Good thing about REI is they let you return product if it doesn't work out for you. You may want to check out the Osprey Aether AG 60 or 70 liter depending on space you need for your gear - the Aether is in the 5lb 5oz range. Try it out in the store with 25 to 30 lbs. If a pack is uncomfortable in the store after 20 or 30 minutes it will be even worse on trail. Dueter makes some good packs as well - key is to get one that is comfortable. Another Osprey you may want to check out is the Kestrel 48 - it is about 3.5lbs. They make a Kestrel 58 or 68 but they are not sold in the USA, but you can buy via webtog.com cheaper than price for Kestrel 48 at REI. They run about $145. You can checkout video reviews for all of these on KZitem. Best wishes for your adventures.

You're definitely not alone; nIght hiking is a necessary evil sometimes, but I know few people who actually prefer it to day hiking. I mean, the stars and moon are pretty and all, but you really can't see many views hiking at night. I also don't understand the weird hostility some backpackers seem to have for UL backpackers. It's like, it's not hurting you if I don't carry a multi-tool and a tube of Neosporin, right? We all love the outdoors for the same reason, so let's be on the same team. Anyway, very entertaining video! Thanks!

Wonderful video! I actually laughed out loud when I realized that the 'slow hiker' you were talking about was yourself! I can really relate to that: on my first trip I was by far the slowest :)

I can’t understand why people want to race while being outdoors. It’s stupid unless the cure for cancer is at the finish line. Hike your hike and let others be ignorant.
