Gear List
I get questions about how I can fit 14 days of gear comfortably in a 5100-5900 cubic inch pack, so I figured I'd detail my kit for everyone. Prices for each item are attached next to the item for reference if you are looking for parts to add to your kit. I am not going to search around for the best deal just searching the item on Google and finding the easiest price available for time-saving sake.
the smallest pack I have fit this gear list and 14 days of food into was the Mystery Ranch Beartooth 80, just over 5100 cubic inches.
A video of how I pack this will be posted at the end of the season.
