Whats In My Pack? | My 2026 Comfort Ultralight Gear List

After 4,000+ miles backpacking over the last few years on trails including thru hikes of the Pacific Crest Trail and Colorado Trail, I’ve figured out exactly what gear works and what doesn’t. This is everything I use and love!
I’m not being paid to say anything about any gear in this video, and I am fully transparent! Some of the links below are affiliate links and help support my adventures at no cost to you! Big thanks if you purchase something using my links :)

If you have any questions that I didn’t cover in this video, leave them down below! I’d love to connect. Below, I’ve also listed some alternate recommendations like the stove I use if I decide not to cold soak.
