Click Here to see our Kitchen set-up!
My pack is somewhere around 3900 cubic inches and in addition to my sleeping bag and liter bottle pack sized tent I have three sacks (pictured to left). The contents of the blue bag are seen in the photo below. The largest stuff-sack includes my extra clothing to be seen in additional photos. My rain gear, tyvec, and food-cozy lives in tyvec postal envelope, that also doubles as a pillow.
Below are my water storage containers, water treatment/ filter/ pour device (cottage cheese container) and my mug (empty peanut butter jar). More pictures and reviews of gear can be seen as we hike on our blog.
My wardrobe isn’t fancy but style isn’t my main concern. Hope you like it because you won’t see much variety in the photos.

Wow! talk about traveling light… I noticed you don’t have duct tape on your gear list?

Good Observation.
Don’t worry – who goes hiking without duct tape?? It is actually wrapped around my poles and included in my trekking pole weight.

Hi, there…when you squirted your fuel into the can, it pretty much covers the whole bottom surface thereby burning randomly outward instead of upward. Could you place some sort of steel ring inside the can so your burning fuel could focus more toward your pot of water and concentrate the heat, thus, boiling water faster with less fuel?

Thanks for the feedback, we have been experimenting alot with the stove and have found about 5 oz of fuel to bring 4 cups of water to near boil (bubbles on bottom). Not sure if this is normal or not. Take a peek at these two links to see more about the stove. We may give your idea a try though. Keep walking and smiling…

I see that you used Frogg Toggs rain suits. There are several models that Frogg Toggs sells. Which one did you use? Were you satisfied with it? Is there something better that you would rather have bought? Also, it appears that you used the tops and bottoms of the rain suit as wind pants. Did that work out for you? Thanks for the info!
