Gear List

For the gear junkie, here's a list of what we're taking on the trip.  I'd hoped to have it all weighed and cataloged but, alas, there hasn't been time!  Our base pack weight is around 19 lbs.  Base pack weight is just the pack and it's contents with no food or water.

Our food weight will be about 1.5 lbs per person per day which is about 2600 calories per person.  We'll be eating lots of high calorie dense foods to be able to get to 1.5 lbs of food per person per day.
