I’ve enjoyed reading other people’s kit lists – coming back to walking after many years they were useful in choosing new items and reassured me that I hadn’t missed anything important.

 

	Cooking	Weight(g)
Stove	MSR Windburner	430
	Fantastically fast and efficient. Can comfortably manage 5 days boiling a litre morning and night on a small cartridge.
Fuel	C100 cartridge	175
Cutlery	MSR Folding Spork	10
Bowl	Sea to Summit Xbowl	80
Filtration	Water Filter (Sawyer Squeeze)	95
Filtration	Sawyer Squeeze bag	36
Bladder	Hydrapak ShapeShift 3L	152
	Great replacement for my platypus, easy to fill and possible to remove from sack while leaving drinking tube in place.
Lighter	Firesteel (Light My Fire Scout)	27
Food Storage Bags	Ziplocks
Rucksack	Atmos 65 AG (L) (150g rain cover incl.)	2120
	Really comfortable, but it’s true, it does squeak! Only downside is that it’s heavy, but it doesn’t feel that way.
	Shelter
Tent	Tarptent Bowfin 1	1100
	Great little shelter, lightweight, quick to pitch and decent in wind. Only downside is that due to the integrated ‘pitchlocs’ it packs into a rather long package.
Pegs	Easton Stake 16cm x2	20
Pegs	Groundhog 19cm x6	96
Pegs	Mini Groundhog 15cm x6	60
Guylines	MSR Long guy lines	25
	Given the variety of ground conditions actually used most of the pegs at different times. It wasn’t windy enough for the guys.
	Bedding
Pad	Exped Synmat HL M Winter	431
	Very comfortable and plenty warm enough. It is, though, quite narrow and not too long, so if you’re 6ft+ or anything other than slim I’d go for the wider version. Inflation and deflation very quick.
Pad	Exped Stuff sack and repair kit	36
Pad	Exped Snozzle Bag	58
Pillow	Sea to Summit Aeros Ultralight Pillow Regular	56
	Wouldn’t go anywhere without this, worth the tiny weight
Bag	Marmot Pinnacle -9°C	1180
	Clothing (in pack)
Shell Jacket	Berghaus Light Trek	400
Shell Trousers	Berghaus PacLite L	236
Sleep	Merino top + trousers	400
Gloves	Lowe Fleece
Socks	Darn Tough Mens Boot Sock Full Cushion (spare)
Warmth	Montane Prism	429
	I love this jacket, perfect for the evenings or any cooler moments or showers during the day.
