Appalachian Trail Backpacking Gear List! (What Lasted, What’s Trusted, What Next)

After doing the Appalachian Trail NOBO, I have plenty to say about GEAR! I’ll unpack my backpack with you and go through everything I have. I’ll also include what other hikers were doing (always good to know what else is out there!) and what I’ll replace or leave behind on my next big hike!

Some pieces of gear I forgot to mention:
•a tripod for videos (I carried 3 different ones throughout the trail! I thought it was worth the weight, but not for everyone!
•a buff used for a headband and to patch a hole in my shirt
•cheap sunglasses I hardly wore but never ended up getting rid of

A huge THANK YOU to AeroPress for sponsoring this video! Use code BEER for 20% off coffee makers that aren't on sale or visit http://aeropress.com/BEER



I don’t have Amazon affiliate links because I think you should buy gear secondhand or from your local outdoor store! 🙏 🌎

What is Beer in Beautiful Places?
Hi, I’m Maddie! Celebrating an outdoor adventure with a beer has been a long-time tradition for me, and I wanted to create a platform for like-minded folks to come together. In my videos, I cover all types of adventures and review beer! Topics include day hiking, kayaking, travel, thru-hiking, and life on the road. In short, if you would describe yourself as an outdoorist, outdoorsman, outdoorswoman, hiker trash, nomad, or dirtbag, come on along, this is the channel for you! Welcome and cheers!
