Hi folks. After a ton of weekend trips, I'm finally taking my first big multi-week backpack through SNP next month. Since this is the first time I've REALLY had to worry about shaving off ounces, I was wondering -- what tent accessories do you take or leave behind? Do you ditch all your stuff sacks and just stuff the tent into your pack? Do you bring the extra pole splint in case something snaps, and if you do, have you ever actually had to use it? And how necessary do you think the footprint is, or are you just careful with your site selection?
Thanks for the advice!
