Well this has become very interesting. Let me first say I appreciate all the input and have no reason to think any thing posted so far is not good information and advice. That said since I'm getting all my gear in and on a 50L pack and so far I'm just below 30 lbs with everything except water, I wonder if I'm somehow giving the wrong idea about how much room and weight capacity I'm looking for.
I guess first step would be to check out the REI packs since I can do that with a 30 minute drive. And secondly, I'll ask if the Zpack weight ratings are wishful thinking.
We got the REI Labor Day Sale flyer yesterday. Starting August 25-September 4. Have fun!
