It’s not our intention to present ourselves as experts. We’re just enthusiasts with a set up that allows us to enjoy our hiking experience. We met people carrying 25+kg in 75 litre packs and others with ultralight setups. All were happy doing their own thing – you should be too. Hike your own hike!
As you can see, we’re big fans of Osprey & Sea to Summit. While we’d be happy if they sponsored us, they don’t and nor does anyone else!
Some key items in Howie's pack:
Osprey Exos 48L pack, Sea to Summit Trek TK 1 sleeping bag, Jet Boil flash & crunchit tool, DJI Mavic mini drone, Hydroblu versa flow filter, CNOC Vecto bag, Platypus big zip evo bladder and soft bottle
