My wife has a system. I carry in her backpack down the trail while she tries to keep up and I stop so she can catch her breath. After hiking in I establish a minimum camp, make her comfortable with food water, shelter etc, then I go cross country back to my truck and grab my pack and then go back cross county. She loves to backpack as long as I carry her backpack. So I take her someplace generally easy, carry her gear, do all the camp chores and cook and then carry everything out and drive her home. Its another system...
