Hey folks. Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I'm Brian Call. Today I'm going to talk about my gear, my backpacking

0:08.1

gear, my backpacking setup when I'm trying to go ultra light. I just got back from a grizzly bear hunt in

0:12.9

Alaska. I went up there with my buddy Anthony. We've been friends since high school. We had an

0:17.3

incredible hunt, kind of the hunt that dreams are made of.

0:23.9

And I can't wait to share the film with you. It was kind of, I mean, when you think grizzly hunt, it had all the parts and pieces to it.

0:29.0

It was a pretty epic adventure.

0:30.6

I was up there with Alaska Adventure Services, outfitter guide, Eric Lee and eric does a lot of sheep hunting and his gear

0:42.8

his backpacking setup is super light so he and i got into comparing notes and one of the

0:49.6

things about this particular hunt was i knew as a grizzly bear hunt we weren't going to be hiking

0:55.1

very far at least we weren't supposed to be um and so I packed pretty heavy and before I went on

1:00.4

the show on the pot on the hunt I did a gear dump and kind of broke it down I was bringing a lot of goodies

1:06.4

a lot of comforts and um it got me thinking though what is what could i just ditch like what could i

ditch and live without if i had to to go as light and minimalist as possible in a way that suits me

1:22.2

well what am i willing to go how far am i willing to go because lampers and i we do like our we do like our comforts well i got

1:31.5

1:37.6

where you can see like this pack right now weighs 32 pounds and um that's everything minus food and the bino harness when i add the

1:48.9

vinyl harness in there it puts me right around 35 pounds so the vinyl harness binoculars the

1:55.8

range finder all that kind of stuff all added to this kit all together carrying on my body it's 35 pounds

2:03.2

the only thing left is food the only thing everything else is in here i mean in my rain gear

2:09.3

my my mid layers um you know i mean basically everything is in this bag at 35 pounds so if you take 35 pounds and you

2:21.2

add 17 pounds which was my 10 days worth of food you're at 52 pounds okay so for a 10 day hunt

2:29.0
