This is my basic summer gear list. As you'll notice, I travel light. If you're interested, I have a recommended gear list. It goes into more detail about the gear that I carry, as well as recommends some other good stuff to bring in different weather or for different folks. |

Total: 20 lbs If you do the math it won't work. That's because I've subtracted the weight of some clothes, shoes and walking staffs, as they won't actually be in my pack. My wishlist: Bivy sack, small compression sack for tent, Skin Mat, silkweight capilene t-shirt, lighter tarp, Newton 2000, lighter cellphone. |
