I'm still struggling to lighten my load to match the trip. I've found that it's mostly food and clothes that I need to work on right now. I've switched to dehydrated dinners, a "Cat Stove", and right now I'm sifting through what I really need to bring for clothes.

I'm shooting for under 30lbs for my next 2-3 night trip, and I think I might actually make it this time. It was mostly clothes that put me over the mark on my last trip. Well, that and the liter of beer I carried didn't help either

I do appreciate the tips here, they couldn't have come at a better time for me
