>>1540828>I could probably get away with half thatthe trouble with being some where dry and hot is that your water needs go up as you are loosing water quicker.
the 7L carries on that trip were for stretches that were almost two days between reliable water sources. luckily there were occasionally unreliable ones that had water, but i was never going to aim to arrive at them empty.
>that backpackit's an mld burn. a frameless pack, so not designed to carry massive loads, most people find 25lbs is the comfort limit with this style of pack. i was rocking a 6.5lb base weight, 3 days of food at 1.8lbs a day, and the 7L of water.
>bw 6.5lbs>food 5.4lbs>water 15.4lbs>total weight 27.3lbsso not too much over the comfort limit, plus the packs getting lighter by the hour as i drink and eat.
