So I have been trying out gear for a few years now and have narrowed it down to what I really like. What I am having trouble with still is finding a good backpack that has a minimalist frame or is frame-less. Let me know what I can cut or any pointers. I'm looking for something that I could use from an overnight to a through hike. Bear Canister could be attached at the top or put inside the pack. I would usually split the weight of the duo with my girl friend. That aside I'm open to all criticism. Here is my gear so far:
