My girlfriend and I will be thru-hiking the Long Trail in September of 2017 starting at the northern border and going south. Attached are a few GearGrams links with our gear that we are taking. This gear list is pretty similar to our 2016 Colorado Trail thru-hike except that we are taking less sun protective clothing on the Long Trail (no sun sleeves, no OR Sunrunner Hat etc). We have also added an Anker 6700 mAh battery so that I can take more pictures and videos with my phone.
Base weights are 10.6 lbs and 9.9 lbs. Suggestions or comments are welcome
We could cut a little more weight by taking a lighter tent but I got the Fly Creek HV for a really good deal; I also trust this tent since I used an older model on the Colorado Trail. If we hiked solo we would only gain about .33 lbs by taking a single wall 1 person tent and picking up the shared gear that the other person is carrying. Also, this gear is for 2 relatively small humans, so lots of weights are for size small. Anybody else got their gear sorted out for a SOBO thru (or NOBO)?
