If you you find yourself saying "Hey, that's a good idea," to more than one of the following, you might be an ultralight backpacker. I have been collecting these from various lightweight backpacking forums. Funny, but also mostly true stories.
You Just Might Be An Ultralight Backpacker If...
- Your wife's purse holds more stuff than your backpack.
- You pack light for a family trip to Grandma's house.
- You use the fruit scales in Walmart to determine the weight of a possible new piece of gear.
- At home you use just 4 toilet paper squares, to "practice".
- You read that last one and say, "toilet paper?"
- You have a contribution to this thread.
