ok...getting closer to my hike and I loaded up my pack last night. It weighed 30lbs without my 2L platypus reservoir. Which will add roughly 4lbs...I was hoping to get my pack to 25-30lb total. I have a light weight sleeping bag synthetic to 32 degrees, fleece liner. REI sleeping pad, and 65 Liter REI Crest Bag. I have taken a weeks worth of food, mostly ramon noodles and dried vegs and pepporoni in quart freezer bags to pour hot water into, instant oatmeal for mornings, pop tarts, and cliff bars along with GORP. Lunch corn tortilla's with peanut butter and nutella. I have a platypus gravity filter as well. My extra clothes are cold gear top and bottom for sleeping or unexpected cold weather, a long sleeve, 2 warm gear short sleeves, 3 pair of socks and panties, pair of shorts, extra sports bra. Batteries for my headlights and phone charger.
I think i can handle the 35lbs but was hoping to reduce. Any suggestion? My husband is taking the Big Agnes Cooper spur 2ul and the MSR stove. His is about 40lb without the water weight.
