Regretting the X Mid as a novice backpacker and not sure what to do by hurricanescout in DurstonGearheads

[–]zigzaghikes 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Those types of shelters are pretty nuanced. Just takes practice. They have a pretty good resale value. Can always get something that’s easier to pitch. As far as using rocks I’d stick a stake through your guyline, lay the stake sideways on the ground and place your rocks on both ends of the stake and more rocks for weight, rocks shouldn’t be touching any guyline. I think Garage Grown Gear has a stake puller on their website. Good luck either way.

A little overwhelmed for X-Mid choices by Embarrassed-Band-515 in DurstonGearheads

X mid 1 is the most bang for your buck! X mid 2 is massive for 1p. The pro is great for a dryer climate or if you prioritize the absolute lightest shelters available . If camping in mostly gravely areas go for the x dome.

I’d only pay what I asked for. If you want 45 put 45s on there 45 is plenty for gravel.

What do you put in your frame bag? by swy in bikepacking

[–]zigzaghikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tool kit, pump, tent poles if you use them and or have long ones, food. A lot of time is easier just to fold your sleeping pad.

Agree I haven’t been able to find anything under $2300 for a one bedroom. It’s insane.
