A change of pace from his usual travel videos, Dan Camp\u2019s latest release offers a detailed walkthrough of the fully loaded Tumbleweed Prospector he\u2019s been riding across the Americas for the last three years. Find the video and a complete kit list here\u2026<\/p>\n

After three years on the road between Alaska and Argentina, Dan Camp\u2019s latest video is bursting with insight and helpful tips on packing for a big bikepacking expedition (specifically, our Ruta de Los Seis Miles Norte<\/a> and Sur<\/a>). He shares what he packed and why, walking viewers through what has worked, what hasn\u2019t, and how he thinks about what to put where. Beyond the usual bikepacking kit, Dan is also carrying a substantial amount of filming gear and electronics used to create his excellent YouTube video series, which is no small feat.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You can find Dan\u2019s in-depth presentation of his bike and gear in the 30-minute video above, then scroll down for a written version of his kit list, broken into thematic groups. At the bottom of this page, you\u2019ll find an assortment of videos from his ongoing trip.
