    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 shoes

    I'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.

    Absolutely no idea on the total weight. I am a bad person and do not own a digital scale.

    WHAT?!?!? You don't have a scale???

    That is THE MOST IMPORTANT piece of gear for the LW backpacker!

    I 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/each

    Ex-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=1

    I 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)
