Let me buy your top Quilt! I've been looking at the JRB Shenandoah its a 40* quilt and UL at 15oz. I figured I might be able to pick up a similar product here. Let me know! Thank you!

You said it! The ultimate challenge for AT Thru Hikers!

Thank you all for chiming in, maybe this is not such a viable sleep system. Does anyone have recommendations for an lightweight (1.5lbs or less) for a 40-50* bag?

Thank you for the link Karl, but Im looking at sleep systems that are around 1lb.

Staying warm at night is critical, but saving weight is almost as important. Many bags/quilts that flirt with the 1lb range are summer bags, or if they are rated for colder temperatures, they're so...

The pack arrived yesterday. The pack seems to be great quality, made of good durable materials, however when they say its made for an 18" torso they need to get a new measuring tape. This pack is...

We all know how important it is to keep us and our gear dry, in making some UL DIY gear I am wondering if anyone has ever applied neverwet? It is a hydrophobic material so it should help keep...

I'd be interested. PM sent.

Wow! Thank you all for the advice so far! That gives me some great room for improvement.

I will have the AWOL PDF on my phone, I have my wind shell to also serve as rain gear. I saw that the bag...

I have tried to get all of my gear for under $300 and a base weight of 15lbs. I am right on the borderline of that 15lbs with still a few items to add.

I am...

I had a 10% off/Free Shipping coupon with campmor.

I went ahead and bought it through the deal site I found it on. The pack + shipping came to $50! The site has a good return policy so if I don't like it, I can get my money back. I will post my...

The pack weighs 2lbs 1oz. Getting close to being UL while still having a frame, and much less expensive than other packs of similar features/capacity.

I have found the Jansport 50L pack and found a good deal on it. I have used and LOVED a much heavier Jansport while I was in scouting and went to philmont. While reading through the pack lists of...

I have the traditional 50ft. of para-cord at 3oz. The 50ft just seems a bit superfluous for my intended use (bear bagging). What could I reasonably get away with (30ft?) That would save me a little...

Could a hard shell rain jacket, like the frogg togs, be replaced with a UL wind jacket? The wind jacket offers reduced rain protection, but if you are going to get drenched no matter what rain gear...

Sandy of PA: Would you mind sharing some specs of your quilt? Also I hope to see you on the trail!

Wow! What a fantastic resource in that link! I really appreciate that, and the advice. My planned tent is the Eureka Solitaire (Almost a bivy) so im not expecting it to add much warmth. Most nights I...

I've been looking at a Kaufland 40º Superlite Mummy Sleeping Bag, they say its light, but it tips the scales at 1.8lbs. Its very well priced on amazon. Have others thought about using this bag?

About how many fluid ounces do you carry at a time? I know fuel consumption varies by stove and what meal you are cooking, but if I plan to use a penny can stove just for boiling water, about how...

I will be heading North beginning around the middle of May 2015. With the elevation, what temperature rating would you all recommend on a sleeping bag? I tend to sleep a little on the warm side....
