Your rain coat is awesome! What’s the brand and where did you get it? Thanks

Did you need the rope for the headwall of the west gulley or for the glacier crossing? Or did you traverse on the ridge above the glacier to avoid it

Wow. Great job guys!

You should not have your shovel or any other avy rescue gear on the outside of your pack!

Thanks for sharing your journey, this was completely awesome to experience

That was really good! I watched the whole thing

Good Job !

It’s a SATURDAY…….I don’t ski on weekends……ever.

Really like your reviews and adventure videos! Some of the most informative reviews out there. Subscribing in hopes you continue to make videos

A most comprehensive review, thank you.

I love cross country travel. Its much more challenging, but a unique experience. It takes skills in understanding terrain and route finding. You are contantly making your route based on what you see. You cannot rely on a preplanned idea, as it will change once you see it. Trails are great for making distance, and they make it easy, which is also great.

This video is phenomenal thank you

Tip: If you want to use non-MSR pots & pans for the windburner, you'll find that the "Trangia Triangel" fits perfectly ontop / around the gasburner.

Great review. Good attention to detail and easy to watch..thanks

Great adventure! Thank you for sharing!

What are your measurements and did you get the regular sized bag? Have you tried taking it to zero in just baselayers (like what is used to do the temp ratings?) Also, how big is your head? I've got a small head, so the hood size is probably not an issue for me, but I wanted my guy friends to get these, but some of them have large heads and I may need to just keep looking for an alternative for them unless they have extra height in the bag and can make up for it that way somehow. The 2021 bags are on sale now at affordable prices. They are just slightly heavier than the 2022 but you save like 100. I'm a petite female and would really rather spend my money on something that fits me better, but then again...these are light and on sale right now. That snagging zipper issue could probably be easily dealt with by using a special kind of tape made to stiffen the fabric under the zipper like Nemo bags have. They probably heat bond it before they fill it with down. It's like zipper guard tape or something, but you could use tenacious tape to do the same thing, or you could have a seamstress sew some webbing or..there's all kinds of things you could do. I think the weight of strips of tape would 100 percent be worth the weight penalty on a UL bag because the fabrics are so thin, and also, can you imagine jamming your zipper when you're 100 miles into the wilderness and having to choose between ripping the fabric and maybe breaking the zipper anyway or trying to make it work with a gap in the bag? Or having to get out of the bag quickly for some reason and jamming it. But then again, I'm just a beginner and maybe those kinds of things don't happen in real life if you know certain tricks.

Camp at Lake Helen before the summit is a great plan. Is leaving the tent set-up and taking only the essentials to summit allowed by regulations? Thanks.

Why write on screen???

Thanks from Germany😊 love this review ❤

Extremely thorough, thank you! Were you ever able to get a more long term analysis, and if so how’s it holding up?

Great review. Enlightened Equipment makes a great product, customer service, not so much.

Respect, you did a great job. Thank you so much for sharing under very difficult weather conditions. I can‘t understand why NEMO doesn‘t provide the possibility in rainy conditions to build up the tent only with the rainfly and the footprint. The new footprint of my dragonfly bikepack has no loops which could so easily connect with the poles and the rainfly. The older footprint of the MSR tent has such loops, but the new ones don‘t. I will write to NEMO about this issue which is in my opinion very important to have the option to build up the tent without the inner tent. Later the inner tent could be fixed much more easily from the inside as you did or it could remain dry in the backpack until the rain is gone.

If you can taste plastic, lol PVC/BPA whatever else free, that can't be healthy!

No thanks.

China ?

Great hack on setting up in the rain. Thank you.

Do you still like that you got it in wide? we are very similar dimensions. I just got in mine in wide and it feels HUGE! do you usually sleep with the edges of the quilt tucked under you?

Thanks for the useful and informative video in an actual wet and windy environment. 5 mins for someone who regularly erects a tent. This confirms me to buying a popup tent for my motorcycle here in the UK.

I love you guys . Keep on keeping on and I hope to see you guys on the trail one day . I’ll have a sixer hopefully 😂

GUY GUY GUY GUY GUY! You are not DONE! :D Otherwise nice demo for folks!

How did you end up liking these? Was the grip uncomfortable?

if you intend to cook with the winburner you will need to invest in ether windburners skillet and sauce pot Then it will simmer perfectly these posts exstends the capability of the windburner

Back in the 60's it was 11,502.

Thank you for this .. possibly one of the best reviews I've ever came across... clear, informative and no nonsense... I wish everyone was that great at making these !

I appreciated this! Thank you!

so if you up the epic pass to 4k and loose half the skiers most of which will be the hard core you could cut lift lines by 66% and still keep the same profit. Who is on board?

That's what I'm talking about. I find the whole "ultra light concept" ridiculous, because strong hiker=more and weak hiker=less weight capability. It's all relative. You should do what you can do. Unless each hiker is trying to go for maximum distance. Hiking is a defined point to point distance activity(campsite to campsite) Why does a strong young hiker need to carry the same light weight pack as a lesser hiker. It's like big olympic weight lifter working out with 5 lbs dumbells. Obviously, on this trip your pack is not integrated, but you guys know what I mean. The mindset of strong hikers=more load for defined distance is just common sense.

Great adventure guy thanks for filming it and sharing it.

Have you ever tried packing a poncho for rain instead of a jacket?

Jealousy when you hold us!

300$ lift ticket to wait an hour holy

Great review! Just put mine on order.

Man im glad i can just go to the alps, pay 60 bucks and ski all day without any line at all

Really objective and precise review. Thanks!

What kind of training did you to to prepare? I currently have a summit planned for Rainier in may 2024 and I ruck about 4 times a week with a 55-60 pound pack usually trying to get 2,000-4,000 vert gain on each via treadmill or appalchians. Also do incline sprint work and strength training 4 times a week. So I’m hustling hard but was interested what you did to prepare. I’m about 6 foot and 195 pounds currently.

Why do you need to talk just put up the tent

$275 for a peak time lift ticket at Vail. Is that 4 runs with those lines or 3? Effewe Vail!

I used to ski in New Hampshire..NEVER have I ever seen a line for the lift like that!! That's absolutely insane!! 😮😮

You'd think Vail was the only ski area in the country. Quit being sheep!

I am not surprised, the Epic genie is out of the bottle, Vail Resorts is incapable of running, yet alone maintaining their lifts and managing their resorts. They're only good at taking our $$$. The apprentice sorcerer...
