    Love people and use things; never the reverse.

    Mt. Katahdin would be a lot quicker to climb if its darn access trail didn't start all the way down in Georgia.

    It's in the kit with toothpaste and floss. Did not list the little stuff.
    Still a few more things to get like Headlamp and a couple clothing items.

    Two questions if you don't mind me asking....how much does all this weigh? and how much did you spend?

    Seems like you have a lot of expensive heavy stuff.

    I am a big guy I guess.
    5' 11" 285lbs.
    And I have no problem lifting and carrying weight.
    40 pounds on my back feels like there is nothing there.

    Total weight without food and water is about 50 lbs. give or take a few.
    Total pack weight should be around 60 to 65.
    Don't want to go too heavy.
    May not use everything on my Thru-Hike.
    I bought everything I thought I would need no matter where I choose to Backpack.
    Total cost is a little over 3000 I think, Haven't added it up lately.

    Good twisted ankle or shin splints before this is all over.

    Why are you packing a chair that isn't rated for your weight?

    the survival bandanna might be a little overkill
    it is strange that a man would put the pieces together as they please opposed to being content with where the pieces fall

    I am at my winter weight, Haven't gotten into snow sports yet. Just moved to the White Mountains a couple years ago. I will start the A.T. at around 250 and when I complete my Thru, Who knows.
    The Chair was tested with over 500 pounds by Alite.
    I tested it at around 270.

    I thought so too but I figure the bright orange might be handy during hunting season.
