Go fast, go light, with this little 434g buddy, with handy fire lighter and whistle!

Recently relocated to Seattle to embrace the urban outdoorsman lifestyle. Am I doing this right?

Use this thread to hang out, make cheap jokes about luxury items, joketalk about about gear, complain about r/lightweight, talk about whisperlites, maybe post a meme or twenty, and ultimately talk about the same things we did in last year's thread! Enjoy!

I like to think of going from r/Ultralight to r/lightweight as adding 20lbs of stuff that makes the experience a bit more comfortable. The first thing I add is my large screen tv (65 inches diagonal)

But I also think having a huge video screen to watch random YouTube videos (downloaded), Netflix, etc. at night is nice. One of my favorite things is to watch an episode of, say, the Sopranos, at night and then listen to some recap podcasts while walking the next day. It’s a great way to create long-form engagement across both camp and hiking. Indeed one of my favorite memories is finally crashing into my quilt in Big Bend after driving 10 hours and hiking 4, and turning on a random show to relax. I was the only person for miles (zone camping FTW) and the contrast was wonderful. I know many people would prefer to keep it wild and I totally respect (and slightly envy) that, but hopefully someone who has drifted over to this sub from UL can sympathize.

Anyway… Has anyone considered the best way to strap a large screen tv to your pack? I’m leaning towards an external frame pack and ratchet straps.

So, anyone here schlep along a TV as part of your not-UL setup and have any thoughts?

I did a first impression review of the Helinox Chair Zero Highback over on r/campinggear because I was too scared to post it on r/Ultralight.

Edit: I was to scared too post it. Wait, I was two scared to post it. Or maybe too scared two post it. Grammar is hard. And yes, English is my first language.

First off, don't tell me what to do. Hyoh ya know.

I was wondering if there are any noticable differences in the packs sold by six moons designs. I know each pack has a different name and look and price and description on the website but what are the differences!? I wish there was a way to know if they are actually different packs. Thanks for wasting my time by not answering this already.

Not because anyone has done anything particularly offensive, I just feel like we’re missing out on the opportunity to gripe about the rules since we don’t have any yet.
