I've been working on getting lighter (and better) gear for the past 2 years. Here's what I'm currently rocking:
GoLite Jam 2 pack
Lafuma Warm N Light 600 bag* (warm weather)
Marmot Aspen 15 bag* (cold weather)
Thermarest BackPacker Lite pad
GSI Dualist cookset
GSI Tekk Fork and Spoon
MSR Pocket Rocket stove
MSR Fuel Canister
Light My Fire Scout fire starter
Platypus 1 liter bottles (x 2)
Big Agnes Seedhouse SL 2 (w/ footprint)
Princeton Tec Quad headlamp
Ex Offico Amphi pants
Cloudveil Clutch shirt
SmartWool Adrenaline Light microcrew socks (x 2)
bandanna
Montrail Hardrock trail running shoesI'm heading to Red River Gorge in 2 weeks with my new lightweight set up. Last time I went I had a Kelty Sante Fe 4000 bag, a Eureka Timberline 2 tent, and all kinds of Ozark Trail crap I picked up last minute. I should be much happier.
Mar 2, 2009 at 2:03 am #1481880Whats the total weight of this?
Mar 2, 2009 at 10:51 pm #1482212Absolutely no idea on the total weight. I am a bad person and do not own a digital scale.
Mar 4, 2009 at 9:57 am #1482636WHAT?!?!? You don't have a scale???
That is THE MOST IMPORTANT piece of gear for the LW backpacker!
Mar 4, 2009 at 10:03 am #1482643Mar 4, 2009 at 11:14 am #1482674I never had a scale until my workplace got a little 5lb non-digital that I borrow on occasion. It opened my eyes.
I can tell you the weight of a few things, since I own them.
Big Agnes SL2= total weight of 61.75oz, broken down as follows:
Poles -12.75
Pole Sack – .5
Footprint – 6.25
Sack – .25
Rain Fly – 16.5
Tent Body – 18.5
Sack – .75
Stakes – .5oz/eachEx-Officio Amphi (32 Reg) – 12.25
GSI Dualist = total 19.5, broken down as follows,
Pot – 8.5
Lid – 2
Bowl – 1.5/each x 4 = 6
Lid – 1/each x2 = 2
Cozy – .5/each x 2=1I just traded out the BA SL2 for a TT Rainbow(30 oz savings) and the GSI Dualist for a Snowpeak 770 + Snowpeak Mug (14 oz savings)
