New guy on the boards here and just thought I would say hello from Connecticut and post up some gear stuff I am thinking of putting together. Been car camping for years in the White Mountains and around in CT, 3 seasons only, and have finally decided to try to do some 3-5 day hikes along portions of the APT this year in getting my feet wet for longer backpacking trips. Here is my gear ideas/already haves and was wondering what you all thought in terms of putting together my first true backpacking pack. Thanks in advance. If this is the wrong place for this, or bores you; sorry in advance as well.

Pack - Osprey Talon 44 Large, 2.75 lbs(own, will be a tad small perhaps for 5 day hikes, so light packing a must.)
Tent - EMS Escape 2 4.75 lbs(own, works great in rain and wind so far. No complaints except the weight being high).
Sleeping Bag - thinking Term-A-Rest Antares 20 down 2.15 lbs(don't own)
Sleeping pad - Own a therm-A-Rest Trail Lite 1.75 lbs(own)
Sove - Optimus Crux .2 lbs(don't own)
Pot - Olicamp Hard Anodized XTS .4 lbs(don't own)
Multi-tool - Leatherman Wave .6 lbs(own)
Water Filtration - Sawyer Squeeze/Aquuamira drops .75 lbs(back up)(own)

Of course we got the essentials and fire and first aid and food and clothes (very important there - still working on that inventory too) just thinking gear right now. What do you think of the hardware? Good quality stuff, leaning towards this set-up for the first 5 day trek in the early fall time (gotta save some money for some purchases).

Total lbs of just those things is close to 13.3 lbs just for that gear - its heavier but decent perhaps for a starter bag that im trying to use already owned gear that I have in house.

Thank for comments and have a great week.

Edit: guess I should put some weights on these things too. Sorry I did it all in LBS. just how my lame brain works.
