For my duo setup when out with my wife (most of my trips) see here: https://lighterpack.com/r/bpojx1

Core setup for solo trips on most of my three season backpacking trips. Some things change based on weather forecast and time of year. Depending on the forecast and trip, I might throw in a heavier rain jacket, WPB rain pants, no down jacket, heavier midlayer, use a filter vs. tablets, go no cook, etc. Choose your trip first, then your gear.

Notes:

  • Trips with long water (or food) carries or which require bear cans, I bring my framed KS Ultralight KS50 pack at 22oz.

  • Trips longer than 3 days, I bring a battery bank.
