I think the variety of gear lists I see is so cool, there are so many reasons to use different gear, where, when, weather, group size, pack size, weight preferences, time spent in the same camp, comfort needs, the list goes on and on, I think sometimes people do not think about all these factors when they judge a hikers gear, I think it makes this stuff so much more interesting, I would like to try everything, if you have any thoughts please share them
