Great list... I imagine this is your essentials list, food, clothes, and water would be extra?
I'm currently waiting for a lighter tent to get here. My Big Agnes Hotel 3 is a little over 6 lbs. What sleeping bag do you have ? Also which headlamp?
Looking to get into backpacking and camping more as we fall down the rabbit hole of Cubscouts. Before trying different brands and buying a couple different packs... anyone locally have any Mystery Ranch or Osprey in the 50 to 65 Liter size that I can try and see if my gear will fit into??
Also...
I'm looking for some help on sharpening too. I don't mind investing in some tools to do it, but I'd like know if they make one yet, where you can't eff up a blade. I think that's been my biggest resistance to trying, is not wanting to mess up expensive or sentimental blades.
