And it’s COMFORTABLE! Ultralight Comfort on a Budget!

While weight isn’t the most important thing when backpacking (I tend to think that comfort it!), saving weight can make your trip a lot more pleasant if you’re covering a lot of miles and trying to save your back. But going ULTRALIGHT just isn’t worth it if you aren’t COMFORTABLE! In this video I’ll show you my 9 lb load out that provides comfort (the sleeping pad is 4 inches thick!) while lightening the load, all on a budget at just $475 for the necessary gear! I’ll also share a few things with you that you may need depending on your conditions, such as rain gear, bear safety, and other items.

If there is anything you would add, take away, or change, drop it in the comments! I love to hear about what others are using so I can continue refining my own gear
