Your packing system is broken if you’re: -Opening the main compartment of your backpack on trail during the day. -Relying on heavy clutter like zippers, stuff sacks, hydration bladders, or rain covers. -Packing gear in unoptimized locations. -Forcing your conscious mind to locate gear instead of moving equipment to repeatable locations with pure subconscious muscle memory. Don’t worry—it’s easy to fix! In this video, I break down the exact optimization processes, physical mechanics, and structural rules needed to build an elite, zero-friction packing layout. ⛺⚙️ HIKING GEAR LIST: https://www.davemorrowphotography.com... 📷 ⚙️ PHOTO GEAR CHECKLIST: https://www.davemorrowphotography.com... 📷 PHOTO WORKSHOPS: https://www.davemorrowphotography.com... #howtopackabackpack #ultralightbackpacking #ultralighthiking
