>>1912004>half a yearYou're going camping for six months? I'm jelly.
I assume you're going to be staying at high elevation rather than wandering out into the agricultural parts of SW Idaho too much, so water won't be too much of an issue so long as you have a filter that can last that long. Still, one canteen is not enough. That's a risk that you do not want to take. I'd add more water bottles. Also what are you doing for food? I assume your brother has some sort of plan.
>BootsPut some care into thinking about these. You do not want blisters. Wear liner socks and make sure they're broken in. They also have to survive the trip.
>first aid kitYou're gonna use it, think this one through too.
>HatBoth a beanie so you can sleep at night and something with a brim so you don't get BTFO by the sun.
>sleeping bagYou are bringing one of these, right?
>sleeping padThe inflatable kind is the way to go in the winter, good choice there. Too cold for hammocks well into the spring.
>clothesYou should give these some thought too. It will rain and snow on you as well as being warm and sunny sometimes. Be prepared for them all.
>paracordThat's an awful lot of it but it's handy, w/e. Being able to hang your food is good but kinda tricky in stunted rocky mountain pines sometimes.

>bear sprayYou can if you want. I've never had issues with bears but it's worth considering.
>50L packSeems a bit small to me, and I prefer external frame packs in general. Warm clothing is bulky. What you're doing for food also factors into this.
>toothbrushBrush your teeth, you monster. See below.
>slip on knee padsGood man anon, there are some cute /out/ girls around
I don't exactly understand the four carabiners. They're useful but not useful enough to justify four of them if you're not climbing.
