Ever gotten bear sprayed it suks so bad
By a Boy Scout Handbook.
You are sexy… but no deodorant :(?
Trail runners: shorts are fine
I’am brown child don’t want to get booked for looking.
Axe and shovle
So I don’t know if it’s just my upbringing but when I imagine hiking I think of it as a day walk. When I search it though people describe what I call “camping” which can include walking but it’s when you stay overnight.
I will probably buy a television I have a playstation 2 and Need for Speed Most Wanted screw playing outside.
YO
What does your fully loaded pack weigh? That stuff looks heavy. Since this is REI, would be nice to teach people to lighten up so they will keep backpacking. Video is obviously for a new backpacker. It would be helpful to help find equipment in REI lineup that is light. Bear spray maybe, holster to put it in, no, too heavy. Use backpack pocket.
She’s not into the light weight backpacking I see lol
She has a back…. 🤔
It’s a bad idea to have a windscreen with a canister stove. 💥 🤯
I don’t believe in unicorns, but this chick is close haha
One thing I think she may have missed or I wasn’t paying attention. What form of water filtration should a beginner have or start with. I’ve seen pump and I’ve seen the squeeze type. Help?!?
Hi Miranda, thanks for providing such quality content. Because you, I was able to overcome my fear of going camping and backpacking; however, I would like your suggestions on how much water to carry on a 3 miles backpack trail in which I plan to spend 2 nights without a nearby water source and what is an effective way to carry water on the trail?
How do you charge your phone?
What size backpack do you use?
How many cooks will I get out of a fuel can like that? I just bought a pocket rocket II
Thanks Kevin
How large of a bag is required for all this stuff?
I saw her again! Nice review
No knife?
Ughh.. she reminds me of those who judge other backpackers
thanks . Great information
Thank you. Very informative.
I try to get eaten by bears.
Leave the deodorant at home? 😲
great
What is the name of this knife you use?
so cool seeing all the bear stuff you use! we just stick some vegemite behind the ears for the drop bears here. nice and simple!
And the best part is in my city there is ZERO BEAR i….live in indonesia so yeah i dont need to carry that bear stuff save space and money
Question Miranda are you going to try Canada Trans Continentl hikeing trail in Canada 🇨🇦.
I know you posted this three years ago, but I wanted to tell you how much of a help you’ve been to me. I feel like you’re my friend telling me all the things I needed to know for my first solo backpacking trip. I did as you said and kept it simple. Had a great time, even with the thunderstorm that delayed my supper. I just used it as a pre dinner nap time! Thanks again!
A bolt action rifle. An extra box of .270 Win. A pair of woodland camouflage briefs. And a Falkniven S1. That’s all you need.
nice !!
I watch this video every time I go backpacking as a reminder in case I forget to pack something.
I carry bear spray too…it sprays 10mm lead at around 1300 fps.
a pistol is a better option against bears and evil people
I really laughed when she said “maybe leave the deodorant at home”
Can’t see link for packing list
Ew
Very informative! Thanks for sharing.
Interesting, a tiny stove and then tallish pot. Those of us that have the ultra fast boiling setups like jet boil, have a hard time turning down the heat to a simmer. I fish a lot so that high heat is tricky. I have to lift the pan up and move it around a lot since the heat is so focused, even turned down. I do a lot of "regular" cooking, not just heating water and dumping into a pouch. The jet boil pot is too tall for most of my needs, so maybe time I change 🙂
wonder how you charge your phone ~~
This is her show gosh darn.
why does toothpaste have to go in the bear cannister
What sleeping bag is that?
