Backpacker Luke - Invidious

Backpacker Luke

When we feel confident on the trail, we find joy and fulfillment there too.
If you love backpacking, ultralight gear, and getting the most out of your time outdoors, you're in the right place.
On this channel, I review backpacking gear, share real-world how-to tips, answer FAQs, and occasionally bring you along on my own trips.
I believe backpacking should be simple, accessible, and an adventure you look forward to — not a gear haul you dread.

Expect honest gear reviews, practical advice, and ideas to help you backpack smarter, lighter, and farther.
