Backpacking the Appalachian Trail (AT) taught me a lot about what gear works and what doesn't. In this video, I share the 10 pieces of backpacking gear that failed during my thru-hike of the AT. From rain gear that didn’t hold up, to backpacks that gave out, and clothing that couldn’t handle the elements, these gear failures were some of the biggest challenges I faced while hiking the 2,197.4-mile Appalachian Trail. If you're planning a long-distance hike, section hike, or even just looking for reliable gear for your next backpacking trip, learn from my mistakes! I'll walk you through the gear I regret bringing and what to avoid on your hiking adventures. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced hiker, this video will help you make smarter choices about your backpacking equipment. Don't forget to subscribe for more tips, gear reviews, and stories from the trail!
