LOL Good catch! Great video.

I also carried a paperback book or two. They had to be good enough to hold my interest, but not good enough that I would take them out to read in the winter. Sometimes you get demobed from a fire and are sent to a staging area for 2-3 days and either go home from there or get sent to another fire. Sometimes you travel by commercial air and sometimes in agency aircraft. This can involve several hours of waiting and the books are important to have for such waits. I don't know about now, but my red pack cost me about $700-$800 in the early 80's. People should also realize that the total weight of this bag cannot exceed 45 lbs., assuming the same limits apply as when I was going to fires.

I spent that $600 to $800 in addition to what was provided to me by the Forest Service so I didn't buy my own packs. I even bought the line pack I wanted on a government purchase order. Management did not force anyone to use those yellow line packs that are impossible to adjust, if they are still used.

Definitely want to see your sawyer's kit.

I removed the handles of my ti cup and put some silicone RC car fuel line over them to stop me burning my fingers lifting the cup off of the stove, really effective and cheap :)

In the infantry we field stripped our MREs.... usually kept the crackers and the main meal with the bricks....and if you got the jalapeno cheddar sauce....you basically had a bar of gold to trade with. I think one of the best things to have..especially on cold desert nights or winter....is the MRE heater bag with the bricks. I never used it to heat up the meals...instead, you put a VERY small amount of water in the bag...not to the line but enough to get the bricks activated, and you had 4-6hrs of HOT heat. I used to stick a bag under an armpit and change sides or put the bag wherever I was cold. I used to save all of my bags up and always had 4-5 of them with me that I could keep in pockets. Also great for making that coffee so you don't have to chew on the grinds lol.

back to classic wranglerstar. awesome

Although I do not work in this profession I like watching these videos because they often give me ideas of things to add to my emergency bag that I carry in my truck. You never know when you’re going to have a break down or come up on someone who needs help.

I just spent 27 minutes watching this Idk why but I fell like my life is better now

never gonna fight a fire in my life but love these videos honestly so good

I think it's awesome that you consider things that most people (in general) don't prepare for. Bringing things you know you won't need every time, but recognizing the chance does exist that you, or someone else, might. Yet you manage to keep it to needs, with a few comfort items in a thoughtful balance.

Cody, I sometimes work in temporary camps as well and the snoring is a massive issue. Until now I have never thought to keep earplugs in my bag. Life saver hahaha

As a guy who's spent a few night in berthing spaces with many snorers, I have to disagree with the old foamy ones. The more play doughy tiny traffic cone ones work better.

Love Dr. Bronner's peppermint Castile soap. Lasts forever, can be used for anything including laundry. The challenge is to read everything on the bottle ✌️

I still find It amazing how people think that comfort is against the ethos of being outdoors, but then again it is easy to criticise from an easy chair. Not a clue how much so will go with...$2350 and yes please Sawyers Kit. Congratulations on your continued success on the channel. From London UK

i would like to see your fire fighting camp all set up how you have it in the woods

All you need are your tent, sleeping bag, good saw, fire starter, a tin cup with a lid and a few trash bags. Everything else you will find in the forest. In a crisis situation, if you carry alot of gear, you won't be able to move as efficiently and you will end up abandoning most of it. The lighter you are, the better. And it's cheaper too.

I found almost that exact sleeping pad at Goodwill for $7. It had 2 small holes and now that I've patched them it works great. Super warm. I also found one of those big Agnes sleeping bags that fits the pad inside it at Goodwill too for about $12. It's a women's bag but I'm not a big dude so it's fine for me.

You can Go to garage sales too I have found great stuff

As an Australian I can suggest to you a swag instead of that sleeping setup, it should in total have less mass and weight depending on the one you buy, it will have less space in it but a 2 man swag has a fair amount of room in it. Swags are also really easy to set up and take less time to set up

Ok. I know I'm talking about what amounts to semantics for most people here but there is a big difference between freeze-dried and dehydrated. You ought to do a video demonstrating the pros and cons of MREs, dehydrated and freeze-dried foods.

Thanks, Wranglerstar. Definitely want to see a video on the sawyer kit!!!

so as someone starting their second season of wildlands firefighting let me say don't be put off by that cost. Wrangler enjoys most of the nice gear that we don't generally use. my first season on a Type 2 I only bought 300$ boots, a pocket stove and a few fuel cans 50$, some mountain House meals for backup 50$, snacks and electrolyte tablets 50$, and finally a ton of wool socks that I found for cheap at a Sierra trading post 8$ a pair. so you don't require 3400$ your first season, just get out there! Buy the luxuries after you know what you want. For me I'll never buy better nomex because I go through them so fast. Same goes for tools, we aren't even allowed to bring our own.

And yeah, defenently the sawyers kit!!! Btw.... :)

I just got out on 2hr notice to go for 18 days, I’ve found that I’ll do 9 pairs of socks and I’ll wear each pair for two days and get by great. Thanks for the help, you helped me get my bag set for the coming trip!

Those packing cubes are awesome. I keep about half my wardrobe in them... Color coded for business and casual. Whether vacation or a business trip, I can pack a bag in minutes. I've had great luck with the ones from eBags.

Props to the kind of person that would charge up the side of a mountain to engage in "Hand to Hand" combat with the Gods armed with weapons they picked up in the Lawn and Garden section at Home Depot.

As a pillowman too, therm-a-rest „compressable pillow“ might be your thing too 😊 thanks for these awesome gear-geek videos ✌🏽

Thank you for this. I am going out on my first assignment. Very very helpful.

Love Dr. B soap. Take it on every overnight trip. When I was little at camp, we all used to use it.

Thank you for what you do. Keep being yourself!

It was a pleasure hearing your advice thanks for the excellent pointers

The thermarest INSIDE the bag is fracking BRILLIANT

Thank you for sharing the details, it makes me more appreaciate what you do, what you have endure.

I would love to see the saw kit. I know nothing about the equipment used to fight fire and I'm enjoying learning about it

When I looking for comfort in a tent I look for a divet and fill it up with leaves pine needles sprinkle some eucalyptus oil on it then pad and bag. My cut down kit at one point was sleeping bag and and a body bag yes one of those things we see as voodoo.

Definitely want to see the kit! So awesome to see you geek out over your kit - I would too!

Big thumbs up on the pillow. I’m done using rocks and jackets for pillows.

Very informative video once again. I keep finding items I need to add. Just wish my account accommodated these things more readily.

I would love to see your saw kit. Thank you.

I’m in Boy Scouts and I’m the only one without a mummy bag. It’s a thick big cheap sleeping bag. If you can roll it well you can bring it anywhere and it’s not really efficient but it’s hot enough and comfy so it’s still the best around.

Would I like to see a video on your sawyer's kit? Hmmm. Would I like to see ANYTHING that has to do with your thoughts and ideas on outdoor work...YES!!! 😛 I may not need a pack for 21 days but there's a lot of good ideas to glean from this video. I'm definitely going to bookmark this one (with notes). Thanks for going through the trouble of unpacking and then repacking so we could see everything. Great presentation as always. 🙂👍

I’m glad to see that you’ve decided to take care of yourself (and your foot). I was really worried and was praying for you. Your pack reminds me a lot of my deployment bag. Lol. Especially as you described your shower bag.

I tried to pack like that for my forest service engine. The space up top I had was narrow. Made it hard to get bag in and out. And then people kept giving me grief because my red bag weighed so much. In reality I didn’t have much extra non essential stuff. Our tents are even separate. But the sleeping bag takes up all the space and actual red bags not open or pack as nicely as the bag in the video. Trying some of the organizers this year to see if it helps.

This is good information even for someone that doesn't fight fires. I live in an area that has a lot of hurricanes and to have a bag for evacuations is great. I like the bags in bags idea. All compartmentalized. That gave me some good ideas. Thanks!

Back in 2004 I was on the camp crew on the big cypress fire in Florida and we was there for two weeks they ended up containing and putting out the fire while I was there I was offer a job from a wildland crew out of Oregon and kick myself everyday for not taking job they notice how organized I was and how on top of everything when they showed to get their supplies so they offered me a position as you would call a gopher/lookout because I always knew what the weather was going to do that day and I was prepared for it

Darn Tough Socks are made by Cabot Mills, Northfield, VT, just a couple of miles from Norwich University.

Cody lol..your right about the MRE bulk.But if you remove the outer bag you can rearrange the contents..works for me.I agree a hot cup of coffee tea or chocolate is a plus...and nothing like a hot meal to raise the spirits.Thanks

These videos have been interesting. I love learning how things are done. Thank you.

Got to get that sleeping bag/ pad setup, looks perfect. Thanks

Definitely YES on seeing your sawyer's kit.

got the same stove for at least 20 years. sadly my igniter broke like 10 years ago. but the stove still works fine and does the job.

I will second your opinion on the Big Agnes sleeping pad. I bought one two years ago for camping. A week long trip in the Boundary Waters of Minnesota made me a believer! Also, I second changing your undergarments. Nothing like that daily "Oh so fresh feeling!" The bags look well thought out. I must say mine mimic your almost to a tie.

I don't like a tarp under my tent. If it rains it can pool up and soak up through in to the tent floor.

This is great! More people need to be volunteer wildfire firefighters. Even if all you have is a portable weather station with wind speed, you would be a great help. So many have died because they didn't have a wind direction change radio call. You can't outrun 10mph fire spread speed.

Great video. There are a bunch of things I would not have thought to bring. I appreciate your experience!

For the AA batteries... Have you considered using Eneloop rechargeable type? A small solar panel at your base-camp/tent could power a second set in the recharger while you are in the field. The batteries are a full 1.5vdc instead of 1.2vdc like ni-cad...which is better for your equipment as well.

@wannabetowasabe

No! When you need a battery you need it right now. Your line pack and your project fire pack may sit around for quite some time and rechargeable batteries lose power while stored. A headlight that isn't working can be life threatening, not just an inconvenience, given the topography, cliff faces, rocks and trees on the ground. Having to recharge batteries would be just one more thing to think about given that you are exhausted and can't do everything you need to do in the time available. You get run down after many days. One more process or task can be just too much. If you are working 16 hour shifts, which show as 12 hours on the shift plan, but given travel times and other things that come up, almost always go at least 14 to 16 hours, you don't have the time to dink with batteries you have to recharge. Now, if you are gone from camp for 14-16 hours that leaves you 8-10 hours to wash up a little, get dinner, get a shower, (both of which may have long lines), get up early in the morning and then stand in line for breakfast. If on night shift you reverse this order. As a crew boss you have to fill out time reports, pick up the lunches for the crew, speak with people to keep the crew running right, try to call home if cell service exists where you are, try to find a landline phone if cells don't work, etc., etc., etc. If your rechargeable batteries drain and it is the middle of the night you are screwed, especially if you are working night shift. There are some pretty tough weight limits for your luggage or project fire pack and for your line pack. This gear gets thrown around inside trucks and aircraft and compacted in them with people stepping on them to make room. Sometimes they are put in a luggage rack on the side of a helicopter and might be tossed onto the ground due to the smallness of the landing zone, sometimes to get people transported before the sun sets. Also, it is not a good idea to leave expensive equipment in camp while you are out on the line. Sometimes the smoke is so thick that the street lamps in the fairgrounds, park or school camp is set up in stay on 24 hours. Sometimes the camp has to be reconfigured while you are on shift and your might find that your gear has been picked up and moved a few hundred or more feet. I'm sure I could come up with more reasons that this is not a good idea, but chew on just those.

@Wranglerstar have you looked into some of the compression stuff sacks? I hazard to guess there are several items that you carry in your bag that could easily be stored in a compression stuff sack and could buy yourself a pretty good amount of extra cubic inches. Your big agness and pillow could easily be reduced to take up 1/3-1/5 of their current space. If your already up against the weight limit this wouldn't help you but if your out of space and still could have some more weight\, reducing the size of just those 2 items could help you fit some extra creature comforts or even previously left out necessities.

I hope we get to see your sawyer kit!

2nd season Wildland Fire. Last year my campaign bag was a circus. Maybe (with the help of this video) next year will be better than this year LOL Great content, man. Really appreciate your channel.

"USED" to backpack , camp and hunt ect with NON mummy sleeping bags W/O pad sleeves . Then after I bought my Nemo Obi 2 I saw that Nemo had some RECTANGLE down sleeping bags WITH a pad sleeve . Son's bought it for me for Xmas 5yrs ago . I will NEVER buy another bag without a sleeve again EVER !!! No more waking up a dozen X's a night half on and off a pad FREEZING in the winter . Since that first nemo bag I have bought 2 other BAgnes bags , one a -20 ( GREAT ,warm bag ) for winter pulk pulling trips and a summer weight BA with a sleeve . The Nemo is now my tweener bag . Great video , Grats on the Mill , I have to look at those organizer bags .

6200 dollars great kit some good ideas even for camping or bug out bags etc as I live in New Zealand we have been getting multiple earthquakes big ones over the last ten years so some of these ideas r great for emergency bags thanks

Great video. Yes, Let’s see your sawyer kit.

well done presentation and I really respect what you fire fighters do

I am glad that you chose to do this video. I got a few ideas that I am going to try on my next camping trip. Please do the Sawyer video too.

Have you ever been in a situation whilst firefighting when you were genuinely scared? Mother Nature is a powerful thing when she flexes her muscles and that has a habit of making us feel very small. I just wondered if you have witnessed/felt like this.

mavos1211 as a structural firefighter, with very small amount of brush fires I can personally say that if there isn’t some sort of fear of fire you need to be done with firefighting. Fire is an animal. It lives on oxygen, fuels on matter, and will always find the path of least resistance no matter what’s in its way! Wranglerstar brother man these type of videos are awesome. Love seeing the kits and when you talk and explain wildland firefighting. I give you props I’m a structural guy all day Long no way I could wildland hats off! Stay safe!

Ha! As one of those guys who was saying "I don't need clean skivvies every day" love "Well good for you. I do."

Love to see the saw kit

Hey make sure you store your thermarest blown up so that when you get out in the backcountry it will go right back to the original shape! God Bless!

Yes would like to see it

I truly enjoyed this. Definitely a blessing to watch.

I love your kit videos. They come complete with dirt time :)

So after a long hard day of fighting forest fires you want a hot meal and hot drinks? Maybe I'm weird but after a hot day of backpacking in the desert I want a cool drink and wolf down a cold mre. Tbh I have no experience in your profession, but i thank you for what you do.

Great one thank you

Watching this video is really straining my red cone receptors. Every time I look elsewhere it’s all got a red hue, cool.

I agree bring pillows

Awesome kit

I am amazed by your videos so informative I love then

Just finished my DIVS class today!

I wear darn tough socks daily love them

I love “go bags”

Without actually looking up prices or anything and just taking a guess for the range. I think 1485-1500. Price for normal shirts was a hard one to consider. Great info. I’ll be having to pack my gear this coming week. Gives me ideas to work towards

So many people would not be volunteering to do this if they were making the income that you likely are. Very awesome that you do this!
