>>516750while i can appreciate UL backpacking unlike OP, i gotta point out some mistakes here. first off, if you're not gonna buy a baseplate compass, at least spend $20 on a suunto clipper. it's a small button compass that clips onto your watch strap
secondly, it's always a good idea to take at least 5 stormproof matches in case your lighters aren't working. i would add a small ferro rod and a little bit of tinder, but i guess those are optional
third, i seriously don't believe that your hygiene kit is just purell. have you used your finger to brush your teeth for the past 700 miles? at least pack the detachable head from an electric toothbrush
lastly, duct tape and toilet paper don't constitute a fak. if you're lazy and don't want to make your own, you can always pick up an adventure medical kit ultralight/watertight. it's $10, 2.5 ounces, and has actual bandages, among other things
if you packed a smartphone and charger to shitpost from the appalachian trail, then you can stand to carry a few matches, a toothbrush head, a button compass, and some bandages
