I'm really excited to be able to introduce a new video series at Backpacking Light - "The SUL Wanderer".

The purpose of this series is to explore (at least on the surface) - the art of "SuperUltralight" (SUL) backpacking - considered by most to be the practice of backpacking with a base weight of less than five pounds.

However, I won't necessarily hold to that performance standard (weight) or extreme (five pounds) in this series. Instead, I'm hoping to promote a more reasonable definition of "SUL" that simply embodies what we do at the very extremes of ultralight backpacking in terms of weight, simplicity, and compactness of our gear.
