Point of clarity, NOT a duplex knock off, which is a single layer dcf minimalist tent. The Lanshan is a double layer silnylon tent with numerous features the duplex doesn’t have. It’s a mimic of the smd tarptent haven and nettent inner.

Very cool video ! Thanks. Lots of good gear some of which I have not heard of ... thank you for sharing it! 👍

Great gear Ernie. Thanks for sharing

Nice set of gear, I want to hit the Ouachitas sometime, eventually hike the whole trail.

Awesome gear list boss. Really looking forward to how that dehydrated heavy cream turns out for ya! Everything I have is twice the weight as yours (at least) lol...

Hello my friend, I just came across your channel. I liked the content and your knowledgeable presentation so I subscribed. Be safe out there and have fun. 🤗

Thanks for the link to heavy cream powder! I didn't know such a thing existed! I'm hoping it will be better than carrying mini moo's.

Very nice, my friend! -Dave

Very good. Thank you very much

Nice video. Maybe you could make the La. Hang if they have it this year. Did Pinhoti a couple of years back. Wonderful!

Fantastic looking load out.

Nice load out! ~~Susan

I have this pack. Overall the build quality is excellent. There are ways to lighten in up. Trim the unnecessary straps once you know your loadout. I like the hip belt pouches but I removed the foam and plastic forms. I have a 13lb base weight and with water and food this pack carries 20+lbs no problem. As I said the hip pouches are fantastic. The small stash pocket inside the main pack is great. I utilize about 40L of this packs capacity. Now as for size. I am 6'2" tall, that's 187.96cm. I weigh 198lbs, that's 89.8kg. I do not use any kind of external thermarest pad or other pad for a "frame". The shoulder straps are tightened all the way down to make it comfortable for me and the hip belt is almost cinched all the way as well. I'm a big guy and this this is set up as if I'm on the smallest end of the sizing. So I would say it's perfect for a larger user. The shoulder straps have a thin plastic bag wrapped around the foam prior to sewing and this crinkling plastic sound is a tiny bit annoying as well as the plastic wrap allows zero breathability. This same plastic is wrapped around the hip belt padding however these are removable. This isn't awful but it took me by surprise. Why even add the plastic wrap? Why not use a perforated foam for the shoulder straps and the waist belt like an osprey pack? I live on the wet coast so I also use a Nylofume pack liner bag from litesmith. Must keep in mind that this pack was 50.00 bucks to my door and it has preformed extremely well considering I picked it up to see if I could test it to death and now it's my go to ultralight 2-5 day bag. I think once you do a little refining /trimming of straps at home and if the manufacturer could fix the shoulder and hip belt padding /plastic wrap issue this pack would be A+ and five stars.

What size of the granite gear zippditty pouches did you use I was thinking of buying some! Those look like a great size :)

Great video my friend,really liking your channel.

Are you using the zsit pad as your pack frame? I just bought the 3F UL, but I have not picked up anything for a frame yet. I'm a hammock camper, so I don't really have the need for a full sized pad. Thanks!

Do you like the Lanshan??? We just got 3 of them and looking for a chance to take them out! Did you seal the tie outs? We did a test weekend with one of ours and found that they needed a touch of silicon sealer over the stitching for side tie outs!!! How about you???

Tai Curry on the trail? You sir are a brave man. I can't even eat Chili mac without running for the hills with a pack of baby wipes.

Do you like the Klymit Pillow X? Recommend it?

My 0.02 cents. It's light and compact when deflated. You can inflate/ deflate how firm you want the pillow to be. What I don't like is it often slips out of my head and the material is really scratchy/ noisy.

Great video. Curious to see how well this tent holds up. Would you recommend tent poles or trekking poles?

So the 3F UL items ZPacks knockoffs? Aren’t they made of nylon?

another random Oliver, not a knock off of the duplex. But they do look similar visually. The Lanshan is a double layer silnylon tent with numerous features the duplex doesn’t have. It’s a mimic of the smd tarptent haven and nettent inner. All are modeled after french military tents.

PDF? Good vid...
