Nutnfancy embarks on a solo winter adventure in the Rocky Mountains, dubbed "SubZero." Battling sub-zero temperatures and deep snow, the outing focuses on gear testing and survival. Key items include the Kelty "Eagle 7850" tactical backpack, LL Bean Primaloft jacket, Ridgerest pad, and various lighting options from Fenix and 4Sevens. While not explicitly detailed, the mention of "many blades, some hawks" and "real grub" suggests an emphasis on outdoor survival tools and provisions for a frigid encampment. The video highlights the challenges of a day trip with limited shelter, culminating in a hearty meal cooked over a fire and a hike out in the dark.
This video from Nutnfancy provides an in-depth review of the Kelty Redwing medium backpack, highlighting its suitability for various loads including daypack, tactical, travel, and light overnight use. The reviewer emphasizes the Redwing's enduring design and features like convenient panel loading, durable construction, comfortable suspension, hydration compatibility, and effective pocket organization. A comparison is made with the GoLite Continuum backpack, noting its lighter weight and different features, though its durability is questioned for hard use.

This video, Part 2 of Nutnfancy's review of the Kelty Redwing backpack, highlights its suitability as a medium-sized, all-around pack for various loads, including tactical, travel, and light overnight use. It is presented as Nutnfancy's reference pack in the 2000-3500 cubic inch internal frame category. The review also briefly mentions the GoLite Continuum as a lighter alternative, discussing its features like waterproof pockets and side item carry, though noting its less durable fabric. Key features of the Redwing emphasized include panel loading, durable construction, comfortable suspension, hydration compatibility, and effective pocket design. While primarily a gear review, the context of "tactical loads" and "item carry" for potential applications like firearms transport or hunting, combined with the reviewer's typical audience, makes it relevant to those interested in outdoor and preparedness gear.
