  • shit I leave for mine in 3 days...

  • Isn't this common sense?

  • I spent 2 months in africa with 5,5 kg backpack...Reducing your backpack weight is the way to go

  • wow that sounds really cool!! I live in Washington so I mostly hike in the Cascades. Its very beautiful out here... lots of trees and lakes :D one of my friends has some of our backpacking videos here on youtube... just look up "tintiniscool" and you can see them

  • In southern california, about 2 hours east of san diego. It was wild we went on a night-hike during the full moon.... it was like being on another planet honestly. It's just a huge desert almost with alot of wind formed formations.

  • lol! Where are the wind caves?

  • It may not get you ready to carry a pack though. My pack was almost 40 pounds and I didn't do anything before-hand to prepare. I did pretty well considering we hiked 38 miles. But like the guy in the video said you can practice carrying weights on your back. -keep on backpacking, its awesome!

  • Feaeggin Sweeeet...
