Solo weekend winter backpacking trip 2020

I decided to redo this video, originally 41 minutes long, now 28 minutes long.

A solo winter backpacking trip two and a half days long in February 2020; just two months before all the craziness started. The hot tent is the Luxe Minipeak XL tent and 3W titanium stove, and it performed great. Highly recommended if you can still get them. This trip ended up being 6.06 miles up a mountain with a 40 pound pack, and I'm guessing another 30 pounds in the sled. It's always a great experience coming down from the mountains feeling a little stronger then when you went in.

I hope to do another trip this February. Kinda like an annual mountain pilgrimage.
