How Backpacking YouTubers make money...and is it okay?
I dive into all the ways backpacking YouTubers get compensated, from YouTube ads to gear reviews to sponsorships, and more. I also weigh in on the Backcountry.com scandal and how I feel about YouTubers being sponsored by them and others.

Welcome to my random musings on all things backpacking. If you haven't already guessed, my name is Dan. I was bit by the backpacking bug in 2014 and since then haven't gone one day without thinking about my next adventure. I'm from Chicago, a great city but...not so much known for its bountiful backpacking opportunities. Nevertheless, I haven't let that stop me from enjoying the outdoors. Hope my videos leave you with one or two takeaways, or even better, inspire you to head out on the trail. Thanks for watching! Have fun out there!
