Hey guys, getting another workout in for this summers backpacking plans. How about you? Do you or are you trying to get in shape for your summer adventures? If so what are your plans and what do your workouts consist of? Iām also hiking but the current heat wave in SoCal has made it tough to step the hikes up but doing what I can. Cheers, Marmalade
Itās starting to get real! Less than a month and Iām on the High Sierra Trail baby! After that itās Washington, back to the Sierra for the JMT, then Idaho and who knows where else. I hope youāll come along for the ride! Going to be awesome!
Hey guys, since Iām starting a new Q & A series for backpacking/camping itās been requested to also do some for car/Suv living and I think itās a great idea. If youāre currently living out of a vehicle or thinking about it please ask me some questions you have been wondering about. If I use your question Iāll give you credit. Ask away!
Excited, will be getting back on the PCT tomorrow for a couple days. Get to try out my new pack and be around the hikers getting their thru hikes underway! Of course video to follow! Marmalade

If you havenāt so far, Iām looking for even more questions that can be from various topics relating to to backpacking such as my experience hiking the PCT. Gear, food, resupply, camping, travel or even the mental, physical or emotional part of thru hiking. Anything you may be curious about please donāt hesitate to ask! Ask multiple questions of you have them. Iāll give you credit in the video if I use your question. I hope everyone is doing well and I look forward to your questions. Cheers Marmalade

Hey Patrons how is everyone doing? I wanted to make all of you aware of something strange that just took place here on my Patreon page. There has been some glitch in the system and 3 or 4 of you valued paying patrons accounts were suddenly cancelled. I have an email into Patreon but as of now I have no idea why.
If this is one of you please consider signing up again at whatever level feels comfortable. If you have thinking about it then this would be a great time to do so since Iāve just lost some of my supporters due to some strange technical difficulty. It truly helps me get out there and create more of the content you like to watch. I will be posting a video soon here with a few backpacking hacks so make sure to re-sign back up.
Thank you in advance, I truly appreciate all of you!

Just wanted to share some super cool news. I recently found out Iāve been selected out of 150 that applied to be an ambassador for the amazing gps app we all use on trail called āFarOutā (formerly Guthook). I truly love and rely on the app when on trail so itās very cool to be a FarOut Scout for 2024. Cheers Marmalade
