JMT | 19lb Gear List & Post-Hike Review

Here's my post-hike review of all the gear I brought on the John Muir Trail last September in 2019. In this video I show my gear as if I were going solo (base weight 19lbs). My actual base weight was closer to 16lbs since I shared gear.

We had a bit of weather during this trip, including rain, hail, lightning, windstorms, light snow, freezing nights and mornings, and plenty of beautiful sunny days as well. All of my gear held up really well, but I did wish I had brought rain pants!
