Hoping to start late April 2025.
Solo Tarp needs 6 stakes in high winds, but I am only bringing 4 as I will forage the other two or use my poop trowel and spork.
I will be bringing the BV500 (rented) into the Sierras. Potentially will bring ice axe and microspikes if conditions neccessitate.
Green Star -- To be purchased / made Yellow Star -- Products I am interested in after a shakedown on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Ultralight/comments/1g1b4yr/shakedownpct25howdoilightenmy6lb_base/)
