 So, we've just finished 11 days of amazing hiking on the Tourneum Mont Blanc. For those who don't know what the Tourneum Mont Blanc is, it's a 170 kilometer hike around the Mont Blanc massif and it runs through France, Italy and Switzerland. We started this trail at the end of June so we're at the beginning of the hiking season to escape the big crowds because it's a very popular trail. My name is Dane from HighCoholics and this is my pack list for the TMB. If you're curious about a woman's pack list, I'll let them make a video about what she brought on her Tourneum Mont Blanc adventure so make sure to check her video out as well. We'll put a link in the description box below. This is how I actually packed my bag during the TMB minus the video equipment of course and it has a base weight of 4 kilograms. The pack I used for this trail is the Herdegir Zyno 48 liter. It's a frameless backpack and I'll let them make a video about her unboxing of this backpack as well so make sure to check that video out. I always carry my rain jacket on the outside for easy access when it starts raining. And one little book of all the trails as well. I put the GPS's in my phone but if my phone dies I always have the trail on hand. Very, very good tip as well. And on the side is my water filter, Ketodyne B3. There are a lot of points on the trail where you can refill your bottle. So I only brought one liter with a filter so you can have access to water everywhere. The belt pouch, it goes on the front of the backpack. To make it easier I put it off now. And what's inside? Like the things you need the most on the trail. Like a wallet, my phone, some sunscreen, painkillers, and some snacks, some dexter energies. And UV lip balm, very wise as well. Then inside the bag. Since this is a waterproof bag I always use an extra liner inside just to be sure. They say it's waterproof but you never know when the rain is pouring down. So that's why I always bring an extra garbage bag. I put it out now because the sound wringles a lot. Big food bag, it's always handy to carry food in like one bag if you're hungry just grab the bag and you're good to go. And I always bring this for light insulation. It's an Arcterix Hoodie Atom SL Windproof. I prefer that to a normal fleece which are not windproof so this is really good. And it has a hood to protect a little bit from the sun. This is my puffy jacket for the colder nights. It's a mountain hardware jacket, I think 60 grams insulation, very light, very very packable. This is my rain pants, doesn't win an award for beauty but it's very handy. Rain socks, waterproof socks. You don't see these socks too often but Aletta and I really love these socks. We wear ultra lone pigs during the trail which are totally not waterproof so if it's pouring rain we put on our rain gear plus the waterproof socks and you're good to go. These socks dry very quick and the ultras dry very quick as well so that's a perfect combination. We've heard people on the trail using Gore-Tex Big Shoes and it took them three days to dry their shoes so this is my preferred method. Again, in Jinji, toe socks blister free since wearing in Jinji, really. Since wearing these socks I never had blisters and I just love them very light, they dry quickly. I'm wearing one pair and one pair is in my bag. If one pair is dirty I clean them in the night and dry them in the day after and wear the other pair. Some liner gloves, it doesn't get too cold on the trail but you never know so just to be sure, very thin gloves and we love this for shooting videos as well. If it's windy and chilly and you're holding your camera it can get very cold so that's why we wear these. Then last but not least, when you arrive at a mountain hut one thing is sure you are very tired and you don't want to think about what I'm gonna wear for sleeping and afterwards so I always put it in one waterproof bag. I can put the bag on my bed and I'm good to go. Now let's see what's inside this bag. First is a mummy liner, I think it's even mandatory in every hut to bring one. It's a very thin, very light and we use it to sleep in. It doesn't get too cold in the huts and they have sheets there and it's good for hygiene reasons as well. Then this is just one comfy pants, very light, it's from Patagonia, I've been wearing this pants for two years almost, loving it so this is the first thing I'll put on when I arrive at the hut. Some warm socks, always good for in the night or when you're just walking around around the hut in the night or in the evening, bring them. This is my air light towel from Sea to Summit. Very small and this is an actual towel, dries very quickly and it dries you very quickly and it weighs I think not even 40 grams, really light. Then in total I always bring two boxers. One I'm wearing, one I'm carrying with me, same as the socks. I'll wear one in the day, clean it in the night and let it dry the next day while I'm wearing the one who's in here. Then a headlamp. We didn't see that many people bringing a headlamp in the dorms actually. They only use their phones. Which big tip, don't do that, you wake everybody up. This light has a function with a red light like you can see. Red light doesn't wake the people up in the night in comparison to white light. Very bright, always good to know and it doesn't happen that often but in case you arrive at a hut very late and it's dark you always have something to light your pad and where you need to go. This is my base layer. It's a marine wool base layer. It's very warm. It's from Icebreaker, very warm and it has a zipper to let a little bit of heat escape. And base layer pants, to be honest I used it once but I would never leave this one home. Layer pants is always good in case you get very cold on the trail in the night. Always bring this one. Then my toiletries bag. What's inside? To paste, to brush. Some deodorant you can get very smelly at the trail so I always bring a little bit waste nothing. And some facial cream with some protection as well. Very handy. And some Vaseline of course. Guys I think a lot of people know what I'm talking about. If you're hiking every day and sweating it can be a little bit rushy down there sometimes. Always good to save and bring some Vaseline. And last but not least earplugs. I could not go without them. In the dorms a lot of people snore so I always brought this and I cannot sleep without these I think. And of course what I'm wearing during the trail my sun hat. This is my Salomon shirt. I have Salomon shorts as well. And like I said in the beginning I wear ultra shoes. A lot of people wear big shoes during the Tour de Mont Blanc to be honest we didn't need them. I love these shoes in combination with the NGNG socks is my go-to combination. For some protection I have the Oakleys with this strap. I absolutely love this strap because like in the day you can put it on and just do like this and here while we are shooting videos we can go like this very easy. One thing we ditched halfway the trail are our microspikes. There was the advice that in the beginning of June there was still a lot of snow so just to be sure in the end of June we brought our microspikes but I think on day 3 we only had one big snow patch where we didn't even need them. So after day 5 or 6 we just ditched them and never used them again. One thing that is very easy we are a couple of course so we can divide some gear between us. Maybe you noticed but I didn't have any first aid kits or whatsoever in my backpack. Aletta carries that and she has two tracking poles and one of them I carry with me for the trail for easier climbing. So if you're hiking as a couple it's always good to divide some gear and split the weight. So this was everything I brought with me during the Tour de Mont Blanc. If you're curious what Aletta brought during her TMB like I said in the beginning we'll leave a link in the description same as for all the products I've shown here. We'll put a link of our pack list in the description with all the links to the products as well so you can check them out for yourself.
