Alright all you pros, Im Tim and Im leaving in 2 days for Baxter. Without going into an extensive gear list, lets just assume Ive minimized clothes, Im tenting (kelty salida 2), Ive got 8 days worth of food, 4 liters of water, 20 degree bag and thermarest trail pro, and nothing extravagant and no extras. Using a Gregory Baltoro 75 and Im at 56 lbs. Where should I be? Ive been training and on shakedowns with 45 lbs. I keep reading about goal weight being 35-40.....
Some help would be greatly appreciated.
