Gear For Yesterday's Hike

Here is what I carried up Mesa Trail #13 yesterday. Some weights are estimates because I didn't weigh anything before I went.


ItemWeight
organic appleunknown
lexan spoon10g
ziplock bag12g
gps114g
headlamp224g
lentils314g
water bottles~316g
trekking poles398g
organic carrots~454g
peanuts>454g
junkbag910g
raingear964g
hammock1190g
backpack1606g
water~2000g
digital camera3387g


TOTAL: >12353

The GPS got heavier because I added the case for it so that I could clip it on to something. I bought a Marmot lightweight rain jacket and took my heavy REI jacket out of the raingear, but added gaitors to it. The hammock has more webbing in it now than it did.

I ate some peanuts, some carrots, and the apple. I drank less than half the water. I should have drunk all the water.
