This is a Backpacking Light forum, and my gear was minimalist and light. But the luxury items I carried were:
- 3/4 length zrest to go under my 3/4 length Prolite pad
- Thermarest seat that doubled as my pillow
- MSR mugmate coffee filter
- 1 lb Peets Major Dickasons coffee
Item I should have left behind:
Goretex lined shoes. We had so many stream crossings, I would have been better off with mesh footwear
