Hi all,
I’ve listed my preliminary gear list for a dry camp on Mt Humphreys, AZ below. I’m expecting lows of 40-45 F and highs around 80. Hopefully, it’ll rain (I miss rain here in Phoenix).
Base weight is 4.9 lbs.
I’m varying gear as much as possible in the Sub-5 challenge trips so I can try stuff in the field and make a “favorites” list at the end of the challenge.
Did I forget anything?
