After years of backpacking with what I could have in my hands, I discovered the world of Ultra Light about 8 years ago. My package has gone from a base weight of 25+ pounds to a lighter 16sh pound. There is always a margin of improvement, but I am quite happy with what I carry in my backpack.
Here is a list of my team and some related thoughts about the decisions of the team.
Big 3+
Gossamer Gear Mariposa Back Pack: I love all the pockets and the way he sits on my shoulders. I have 2 ‘modifications’ in my package: a cell phone support and a water bottle support.
Rain defense: a garbage bag inside to keep my sleeping bag and dry clothes and a package cover abroad.
DUPLEX ZPACKS STORE – am I going with a single wall or a double wall tent? I go with less weight, but I will carry a microfiber towel to eliminate any condensation during the night. I have made a couple of modifications in the store, one to help keep the bathroom floor taught and the other to close the door fins and reduce the noise.
Zpacks earth sheet: If I sleep in shelters, I want to have something between wood and my sleeping pad. In addition, it will be a layer between me and any excrement of mouse.
Sleeping Boba Rei Magna of 15 degrees: a very heated bag. I will probably change this in summer and then put it in my backpack when I arrived at the presidential range.
BIG AGNES RAPSIDE SLEEPING PAD: I love my dream and with more than 4 inches of cushion and beveled edges, this pad is very comfortable and will help me get well deserved.
More thermographic air pillow: I have to have my pillow, I have tried to wear a jacket in the fall, but it does not make me the trick.
Kitchen
My kitchen will include:
MSR Pocket Rocket Ultra Stove: Light and reliable.
Toaks 750 ml of pot: To cook my meals.
Rei Ti Ware Cup – To hold hot drinks.
Spork
Microfiber towel
Bic Lightter
Gas can
Katadyn will be free water filter: I have tried other filters, but I like speed flow and ease of use. I have noticed that the filters are difficult to come today (I am not sure if my model is being discontinued), but I have supplied and I have some additional lists when necessary.
Miscellaneous things
Toothpaste and brush
Sanitation and peanut kit – toilet paper, 3 oz. Purell bottle (you can consider other options), flat, wipes
Comb
Petzl head lamp
Swiss army blade: if you can even call it a knife, it’s small, very small
Communication and Electronics: Telephone, Garmin Mini, Load cables, 10 amps energy bank of 10 amps
MED Kit: Band assistance of various sizes, gauze, chaple, pad of bite relief, nail short, adhesive tape, tic tool, small pairs of scissors, moles skin, neosporine, bite relief wipe
Luxury items: Umbrella, temporary, Zpacks camping shoes, small newspaper, mechanical pencil and mattress pump
Cordon, approximately 75 feet, to hang the food or use in an emergency.
Things of the ‘O’ McGyver ‘bag: ties, small piece of Paracord, rubber bands, hair band, safety pins, etc.
Clothes
I directed my clothes in 2 categories, what I will wear and what I will pack.
Exhausting
Baseball cap
Outdoor research long hiking pants – 3 pockets
T -shirt – Smart wool
Socks – damn be
Shoes: I have some sets: Solomons, Topo and a couple of ON. I wear the balls of my shoes quickly and I hope to spend 4-5 pairs along the path.
Underwear – 1 par
Packaging
Socks – damn it, an extra torque
T -shirt – Smart wool – An extra shirt
Shorts – Nike Dryfit – A pair of shorts for warm days
Underwear – 2 torque – the second is a luxury article
Upper base layer – Long manga of Merino wool
Lower base layer: an old pair of Aigle Actimum hot springs
Winter Hat: A Merino Meriwool Wool Hat
Gloves: a pair of cheap but light gloves
Rain Jacket – Montbell Versalite
Rain pants – outdoor research
Looting of things – Dry bag of Rei to wear all these clothes
Food and water
Ursack: It can be exaggerated in some sections of the path and I can change it for a lighter food bag, but to begin, I prefer to have more protection against bears and other creatures.
2 Bottles of Smart Water: Each bottle will carry approximately one liter each. A liter of water weighs around 2 pounds and 2 ounces.
Garbage bag: To pack what I need and leave no trace.
Food: From past experience and calculations, I think I will carry a little less than 2 pounds of food per day. Thank God for the trail cities and the challenge opportunities.
