Backpacking List - Working towards ultralight

A new year brings new gear! I remember when I first started to buy camping gear, my goal was to see if I could get everything to fit into one bag. I had a large ALICE pack that was modded to fit more than the regular 50L capacity, but it wasn’t large enough to accommodate my hand-me-down synthetic sleeping bag and much of anything else. As the years when by, I did my research, talked to people with more experience, and over time I picked up items that were smaller and lighter. 

Below is a list and a video of where I’m at for the 2016 summer season. I still have some improvements to make, and if you have any suggestions or comments, please share below or on YouTube. I’d love to know what you think! Do take note though that I haven’t included my food, water or clothing. I’ll be doing another video to cover those items.

  2. Thanks for the list! I'm a backpacker and I love looking at things on people's list - unless I've forgotten something. I always make sure that I have my first aid kit and my waterproof matches and lighters in tow. Lately, I've purchased a solar powered charger for my gadget, so that's an additional item right there. Of course, food! For more of the best backpacking gear you will ever need, here's a good place to start http://backpackingmastery.com/top-picks/the-best-backpacking-gear.html

  3. Backpacking is fun. Being sick on the trail or at the camping site is not. What to do? For me, I never leave home without my compact water filter. I've had it for many years and it has never let me down before. It effectively kills bacteria, viruses, protozoa and eliminates harmful materials. Although investing in the best filter is your best move, it shouldn't cost an arm and a leg, either. Check out this resource page and see one review of the Sawyer: http://myoutdoorslife.com/gear/camping-and-hiking/sawyer-water-filter.html
