This is everything I bring backpacking after YEARS of testing! It's been a while (nearly two years!) since I updated you all on my core backpacking kit, and so after all my videos over the years testing ultralight gear, budget gear, weird gear, and all the new gear that comes out every year, I thought it was time to share the updated list of everything I take backpacking right now! Some of this stuff is ultralight, some not, some of it pretty budget friendly, and others not, but no matter what it's the gear I stand by to be dependable in the backcountry, and the backpacking gear I call my favorite... for now. 😉
