Here, I also briefly introduce how to choose equipment from the system point of view, to achieve lightweight equipment and fully enjoy the fun of the mountains.
First of all, I will introduce a group of equipment that I have been working on in the two days around Shenzhen to start the analysis:
technical equipment:
1, labor insurance gloves 70G
2, military multi-purpose packing rope 97G
3, GAMIN Dr. GPS 149G
4 headlights: PETZLE MICRO 142G
5. Compass SUNNTO VECTOR, watch, not included in the calculation
Collected with debris bags, a total of 460G
food:
Peanut 260G is packed in plastic bags and used as an energy supplement on the road.
Oil 185G in plastic bottles
Salt 35G in film box
Floss 159G
Bread 290G
Mustard 2 bags 167G
Milk 2 bags 529G
Soup 2 packets 90G
Dry beef stick 2 packs 75G
m: 386G in plastic bags
With debris bags, a total of 2100G
Water equipment:
NALGENE 1L 189G
Water 1L 1000G
Total 1189G
Clothing:
Raincoat 287G
cooking utensils:
Cookware 300G
Furnace MSR WINDPRO 219G placed in a pot
Gas cylinder 354G
A total of 873G
Camping Equipment:
Self-filling cushion: THERM-A-REST ULTRALITE 866G is placed in a waterproof bag
Tent: LUXE ROCKET 1300G
Sleeping bag: LUXE ULTRA950 960G in a waterproof bag
A total of 3126G
backpack:
OSPREY AETHER45 1000G
Total: 9035G Less than 10KG.
The following is a statistical analysis:
Technical equipment 460G accounted for 5%
Clothing 287G 3%
Cookware 873G accounted for 10%
10% backpack 1000G
13% of water 1189G
23% of food 2100G
Camping equipment 3126G accounted for 35%
My equipment has been optimized in advance, but it can be seen from the above,
Camping equipment, food and water, backpacks, these are the vast majority of the weight.
Especially camping equipment, actually accounted for 35%.
I use this kind of ultra-light camping equipment.
Others can imagine.
it is good,
We started to reduce the burden from camping equipment.
The following is a portable single account,
LUXE BOEING 2 2kg
If you choose a single-tiered single shot, the weight will be reduced to 1KG, but if you choose a little better,
The price will be scary, such as MHW WAYPOINT 1.
Moreover, as a three-quarter account, there may be a lot of insider accounts.
FERINO LIGHTENT
Perhaps this tent is a bit too harsh. Sacrifices comfort.
However, as a light transit, it is still a good choice.
Account volume: 0.6m3
Packing size (cm): 12×30
Total weight: 1.5 kg, external account + internal account + support weight: 1.3 kg
External tent fabric: 190T polyester, 75g/m2, heat insulation, PU coating, waterproof 1500mm
Ground cloth: 210T polyester, 85g/m2, PU coating, waterproof 2000mm
Bracket: 7001 T6 Aluminum Alloy Bracket 2
Ground nails: aluminum alloy
Yarn net accounts, accounts, seats posts, integrated stent protection, screen door, breathable mouth, hanging lamp hook, suitable for three quarters of use
We successfully completed our first step.
Reduce the weight of the tent below 2KG.
But there is no potential to dig it?
The answer is yes.
You will be thinking, why do I want that post?
OK, so we can choose tents without poles.
Such as LUXE ROCKET,
We can reduce the weight to less than 1.5kg

This unique design concept requires anchorage to be used in conjunction with a cane to make shade canopies. Extremely light weight.
Then you will think,
Do I really need a tent when I'm out?
Or is a TARP enough?
If I can predict the weather is good,
A TARP can still top in extreme situations.
then,
We can reduce the weight from 1.5KG to below 1KG.
MSR TARP
Applicable number: 2 - 3 people
Covering area: 6 m?
Net weight: 0.7 kg.
The folded volume: 12.7cm x 43.2cm
When the weight drops below 1KG,
You will think that the significance of the tent is only that: just sleep in a dry place just fine.
May not need to come to the volume.
OK, camping bags came into being.
At this time, the weight will drop below 0.5KG.
At this point, interesting phenomena have emerged.
You will combine different travel environments and take comfort into consideration.
Such as the combination of camping bags and TARP.
Or just bring TARP or just camping bags.
Or only a single account within the account. and many more...
There is only one goal:
Lightweight, taking into account a certain degree of comfort.
BLACKDIAMOND
Winter bivy

Made of Epic fabric, Winter is packed small enough to fit into your pocket. It can prevent short rain, light rain and snow.

Epic fabric is highly waterproof, breathable and light
Ultra-small after packing, --- can be pocketed into the coat
The relief of the tent was over.
Let's talk about the choice of moisture pad.
Moisture-proof mats Foam-proof mats and automatic inflatable cushions are currently on the market.
Obviously, the automatic inflatable cushion has better comfort.
but....
Slowly, let's take a look at the volume and weight of our domestic inflatable cushions.
The weight of the following product is 1.9kg and its volume is 22L.
This means that most of your backpack will be occupied by it.
It's really frustrating.
but,
Do we really need this Mat 2M?
Of course the answer is.
A mat with a length of about 1M is enough.
Well, its weight and volume will be reduced to 1KG, about 10L

The question now is,
You think it's still clunky.
Change your mind.
Look at how foam cushions are.
The following mat seems to work.
Only 500G, but its volume. . . It seems to have 15L.
The worst thing is, how do you arrange this long guy?
All right,
You think of scissors and cut it in half.
You only need half of it.
such,
You can stuff it into your backpack.
There is a little trick,
That is, you can roll it into a tube and stick to the inner wall of the backpack.
In this way, you can also protect the fragile chopped pieces in your backpack.

You seem to have reached the goal,
The weight of the moisture-proof mat has dropped below 500G.
It can also be built into a backpack.
But you are a person who is not easy to meet.
You want to fold the mat even better.
Unfortunately,
The current foam mat manufacturers have not yet opened up.
I do have several design options.
But I don't have a machine.
If you find a more suitable mat on the market,
We must turn our attention to THERM-A-REST.
However, expensive.
And homemade self-filling pads,
Buying now is a huge burden.
Heavy, bulky, not easy to collect.
Obviously you will not consider it for the time being.
OK, here's the ULTRALITE of THERM-A-REST
Therm-A-Rest represents the world's lightest, most comfortable, smallest and most durable automatic inflatable mat.
UltraLite 3/4
51 x 119 x 2.5cm

such,

A short, ultra-lightweight mat with THREM-A-REST

The sleeping bag is mentioned below.
As a light traverseer, you obviously can't cope with extremely harsh environments.
We think that -10 degrees is already the limit.
Otherwise, the equipment you need to deal with such an extreme environment is simply not light.
Or you have to pay a terrible renminbi for your portable equipment.
Sleeping bags are divided into several types according to the material.
Fleece sleeping bag, cotton sleeping bag, down sleeping bag.
Obviously, when the temperature is above 5 degrees, we choose the fleece sleeping bag.
Its weight is around 800G.
When the temperature is lower than 5 degrees,
You obviously will consider using a cotton sleeping bag or a down sleeping bag.
we know,
A comfortable sleeping bag with a comfortable temperature of around 0 degrees will have a weight of 1.5kg-2kg.
The down sleeping bag with the same comfortable temperature can control the weight within 1KG.
Equally important,
Down sleeping bag has an unparalleled compression ratio.
This is very important for you to pack.
and so,
A light sleeping bag to be used in the autumn and winter seasons, we will choose a down sleeping bag of about 300g.
A good down sleeping bag should have good fluffiness and cashmere content.
There are many special posts introducing the purchase of down sleeping bags.
Here we only need to remember that it must be as light as possible to ensure the temperature.
