I expect to be in the 30lb range when I start, especially since I'll probably have a few extra items to deal with winter (will depend on what the year brings though). I have most of my gear but it will take a few more trips to get things finalized.
Also, here is a fun article about pack weight from an expert:

By the Mountain Crossings method, the ideal load is 30 to 35 pounds, including food and water, for early spring conditions, or 25 to 30 pounds for summer, all stuffed into a 3,800-cubic-inch pack. - See more at: http://www.backpacker.com/trips/geor...u/3/#bp=0/img1
