Hey guys.
I am waiting till the last minuet before I post my gear for a outside view analysis. Atlas, it is time!
I know there are a lot of these posted around this time. Forgive me! I just need some pointers in anything in my gear that would be recommended to change.
My Trip:
Early May- July. Damascus-Harper's Ferry. (I could possible go as far as pawlings but probably not.)
Goal: Light-Weight, but not stupid light. I like a little comfort.
Items:
Six Moon Pack- 39 oz.
Hammock- (Ducthware. Unfinished as of yet for weight. I still have to add lines, etc. This is just the stuff I bought to play around with in regards to building the hammock)
11 ft- 1.6 Hexon netless hammock.
5 ft Tree Huggers.
Two Continuous Loops
Whoopie-Slings.
2 Carebiners
Tarp: (Unweighted.)
Zing it Lines
Tad-Pole Tarp.
Sleeping Bag/Pad.
Marmot Half-Mummy. 2.01lb with compression bag.
Cheap Blue Pad. 12 oz.
(I think I may just stuff my bag into my pack and not use the compression bag at all. That will make the sleeping bag less than a 2 lbs.)
Cook System: 18.4oz
Soloist 1.1L Pot.
Little Pocket Rocket Type Stove.
100g Fuel
Titanium Long Handled Spoon.
(I originally was going to go with a alcohol stove but hated the frustration that I was having trying to work it correctly. My PR stove does have a light that I intend to cut off since they are known to fail. Now sure how else to cut down weight here. Maybe replace original bag with no see um netting bag. Or just toss the entire thing in my pack by itself.)
Should I still grab a tin foil wind screen?
Water System: (Unweighted.)
Sawyer Fullsize
2 Smart Water Bottles.
Platy (Dirty Water)
