Yeah sorry guys I can't provide a full gear list right now. I'm in my college dorm while my gear is at home.

I did a three day "shake down" hike in Pa, taking everything I thought I would need. When I got back, I laid everything out on the floor. If I didn't use it in the 3 days (except first aid and emergency stuff), I ditched it. Next, I looked at stuff I only used once or twice, and tossed most of that as well. Finally, I weighed each item that was left, and I began replacing as many as I could with lighter weight alternatives. I bought a light pack (saved 3 lbs); ditched my nalgene water bottles for Platypus (saved 14 oz); went with a lightweight sleeping bag (another two lbs); you get the idea.
