Hi Paul, I know you're obsessed with low weight and that's an admirable pursuit, but, if you're swapping out a multi functional SAK for a single function Opinel, you're taking it a bit far. What if you need tweezers or a toothpick ? A screwdriver for your tripod ? Even a can opener ? It's a false economy....

Hello Paul from NZ. I like your choice of pack, I have the same I am in the mountains over 40 times a year from one day tramps to 5 day tramps (we call it tramping not hiking). The pack is very light and easy on the back. I carry up to and over 15kg depending on how many days I'm in the mountains. I think that your videos are one of the best no nonsense on KZfaq . I have had over 50 years in the mountains 9 Years as a guide and I'm still out there doing it. So I know that you know what you are talking about. Well done. Keep the videos coming. 😀

You can make your own, that’s what I do. Dehydrated food from the bulk section at grocery store, store a breakfast, lunch and dinner in a gallon bag.

I took hiking boots and wellies and when, just before the flight posted hiking boots back to home. I think hiking boots better for Canada, wellies - for Scotland (hiked cuillin ridge in wellies). If you hike in the boots good thing to take - newspaper. For lightweight food: ground porridge and buckwheat

Your setup is good, my kit weighs around that too with water and food added (3 season). In the summertime i can go down to 5 kg. I go ultralight mostly because of backproblems. As for kit: I'd add a first aid kit, including blister treatment. A belt with at least one storage pocket (unless the backpack got one) would mainly use it to store quick access stuff like a map/compass. Finally, i'd add some spices for the food since it ca be a bit bland.

Hi Paul, big thanks for the continued inspiration and sharing your knowledge. I keep meaning to ask how much water do you get through on a 3 day wild camping trip? I know it will depend on the food choices, weather an mileage but would be great to know your thoughts?
