Have we done a shakedown yet? Here's my ~9lb solo kit. Colorado Rockies, Summer
Where are you going and when: Colorado late summer
What temp range and weather do you expect: Low/mid-30's to 70's
Goal Baseweight (BPW): Pretty happy with things, but I'm always down with going lighter.
Budget: $0. I got bills to pay.
Non-negotiable Items: Honestly don't know what I could cut out. If anything, I might be forgetting something.
Solo or with another person?: Solo, 2p gear list is heavier.
Note: A lot of this gear I bought used or on sale/clearance. UL gear doesn't have to be expensive. There's plenty floating around, if you keep an eye out. Thrift stores or Craigslist in more outdoorsy cities will have decent stuff. If our community on Lemmy gets large enough, it'd be cool to have a ULGeartrade at some point. I bought the pack and the poncho tent off there.
Caveats: For cooler temps I'll bring a down vest or jacket. If I want more comfortable sleep, I have an inflatable sleep pad. For buggy conditions I bring the net tent. All this would bring me up to 10 lbs.

Why is your butt stuff 0 g?
Lol, I suppose because it changes from trip to trip (depending on length) and it's a consumable. I could weigh out an overnighter's worth?
Haha ok. I was worried that you were like "....nah" and that would be bad.
"I just hold it."
