I've been trying since 2005 to lighten my load a lot but still be comfortable. I think I've done it - finally.
Here's my Light Weight (not UL) gear
PACK> REI Cruise UL 60 (3# 2 0z.)
SLEEPING BAG> Western Mountaineering Megalite (30F.)
MATTRESS> old Thermarest Lite regular (still works OK) 18 oz.
TENT> TarpTent Moment (28 oz. W/ 2 stakes)
STOVES> Vargo Jet-Ti (canister)
Vargo Triad EX base (ESBIT)
Brunton Flex (canister, wider burner flame ring)
WATER TREATMENT> StriPen Adventurer, Micropur tabs
DISCLAIMERS:
I like the comfort of the old Thermarest Lite (actually ret'd a Neo-Air - too many gripes to mention)
Had a Contrail & it's OK but I LOVE the Moment at just 2 oz. more
Alky stove are not for me and my 7 to 10 day trips.
Frameless packs are not comfortable to me, at 25-30 lbs. W/food & water for a long trip.
I'm never going to be a ULer. Like my camp comforts too much.
Been at this hobby/obsession for decades and I researched 'til I found quality L.W. gear - I think.
