This is Kullcraven Bushcraft
and you're watching the Bush Channel.
Enjoy.
(guns shots echoing)
- [Voiceover] So here's all the day hiking
equipment laid out that we
carried here today.
First thing's first.
There's the backpack.
That's a 40 liter backpack, quite light.
Only weighs 1.2 kilos empty.
So on the right side here,
we have all the gear
that Christina has been carrying
in this six-liter bum bag.
Just start over at the left side here.
Firstly, so it is a sunny day today,
but a lot of this gear is emergency stuff
that we carry just in case
we're stuck here overnight.
So starting off with a Gore-Tex jacket in case it rains,
a spare pair of woolen socks
and woolen thermals for emergencies,
a woolen beanie.
Here we have a woolen balaclava, very lightweight.
This is the red dry sack that we carry
all those spare clothes in
so it's completely waterproof.
Even if the backpack was to fall into a river,
all those spare clothes would still be dry.
So here's the food,
what's left of it 'cause we have been
eating some of the food.
There's an orange,
the white plastic bag that we carried everything in,
some ham, premade sandwiches,
just ham and cheese sandwiches,
peanut butter, we did have
a peanut butter sandwich and a Nutella sandwich.
Something else we've discussed before
in our videos is dried bananas.
There's a few dried bananas there
and dried paw paw, dried apple,
just mixed nuts.
Here we have whey protein.
So we like to carry that.
It's quite high-quality whey protein.
It's almost 90% protein so you just mix that with water.
This is a sunglass pouch that
I put over the GoPro
to protect the lens when I'm not filming.
Here is my other camera.
So a lot of my YouTube videos
have just been filmed on this camera.
Coolpix Nikon waterproof,
shockproof camera, very simple.
And there's the pouch for the Nikon camera.
Here is my PSK survival bugout bum bag,
which I have a completely separate video on.
Inside there is a spare rope,
just a gear rope, a swiss army knife,
cigarette lighter, satellite phone
also in there if we are stuck somewhere
and we don't have a signal.
So there's a satellite phone inside the bum bag.
Here is my iPhone.
And a waterproof pouch for the iPhone.
Another three gear ropes.
So they're ropes that we could use to
make a shelter in an emergency.
There's some cleaning alcohol,
just for washing your hands without soap and water.
Definitely something useful in the mountains,
like exposed rocky mountains like this,
sunscreen.
We have some Gatorade to mix with water.
This is our emergency fire-lighting system.
So they're highly-flammable cubes
which you can use to get a fire going,
even in the wettest conditions.
Some Gorilla tape.
Now here, over here is our toilet paper
inside that sealed up bag.
A digging trowel for digging a firepit
or for digging a hole when you need
to go to the toilet.
So the only cutlery we're carrying
is one titanium cup
and one titanium spoon, ultra-light of course.
Another emergency item that we carry
for the purposes of what if you were stuck here overnight.
It's just this saw.
So it's a bushcraft saw for cutting up wood
if we needed to make a fire.
Here is my torch,
just a very simple, small
single AA-operated
LED Lenser torch.
Here's my climbing helmet
with the GoPro mount on top
and legionnaires flap.
We have another video on our channel
on how to put a legionnaires flap
onto your climbing helmet.
Here is Christina's climbing helmet.
Same as mine, but pink.
We mentioned the bum bag.
Here's a spare woolen jumper.
Just one, it's quite light.
It only weighs, probably, 350 grams.
There's Christina's waterproof jacket, Gore Tex,
or eVent fabric.
Same thing basically.
This is the topography map
of the area that we're climbing in or hiking in
with a waterproof cover.
So here's a waterproof cover for Christina's phone.
This is the knife Christina is carrying.
So just a Mora.
We've mentioned this before on our channel.
Great kitchen knives,
great knives if you're on a budget.
And I don't normally carry a pair of binoculars,
but that's what's in that container.
In that pouch, there's a pair of binoculars
'cause up here we have a lot of
visibility on these mountains.
And we're trying to find different routes
through the rocks and from a distance,
it can be quite useful
to have a pair of binoculars.
So pair of gloves for Christina
and there is, forgot to mention,
there is also one pair of woolen gloves
inside the bugout bum bag.
There's Christina's trekking pole
and my trekking pole.
Just up here inside the cave on this rock ledge,
I've got a 10-liter dromedary.
At the beginning of today, we had
5.5 liters in that sack
because up on this mountain ridge
where we are now, there are no creeks.
So if you were stuck here overnight
or in our case, we'll be hiking the entire day,
we'll probably drink all of that water.
It is quite a sunny and hot day.
And there's just a hydration hose
on the dromedary.
So I think that just about covers everything.
Another thing we like to have
on the top loop of a backpack
is just another gear rope
with a carabiner on it.
So you can use that to just hang your bag in a tree.
So just a closer look at the backpack.
Also on the sides, we like to have
just a small carabiner
on each side of the backpack.
In fact, we've taken the gear carabiner off
that side, just put it onto the binoculars.
So when you attach your gear
to the side pocket of your packpack,
you also just 'biner it on.
You use your carabiner just
as a secondary support
in case that piece of equipment
was to fall out of the side pocket.
Let's just step back this way.
You can see what this cave looks like.
Absolutely beautiful.
So again, if we were stuck on this mountain overnight,
we could sleep in one of these caves.
Make a little fire in there.
Fantastic little chimney happening through the top.
