For three season, I'm just starting to get below 20, not counting food and water. My goal is 15 but 18 may be it for me. I'm finally giving up that 8 oz book for an mp3 player with books on audio. Other decisions may be harder or take some moola to get lighter gear. I just don't want to get so light that I'm mooching off of others for things like meds or bandaids.

With water and food for 4 days durning the Fall, I'm at about 27lbs. I'm just can't seem to get lower than that.

(I wish my S.O. could go on trips with me so we could share stuff but his 2 artificial knees make it impossible for him to backpack.)
