The bag we carry on our trek (which is only about half of the time we will spend in Nepal–about 15 days) has to weigh 33 pounds or less.
So, I’m carrying about seven pounds of camera equipment alone, and my sleeping bag, ground pad, and pillow together are nearly ten pounds. (No, I don’t want to hear about how I’ll sleep just as well on a lighter weight pad. I won’t.)
First Aid kit is 2.5 pounds… I’m not going to give you all the details but lets just say, 33 pounds is HARD. And I pride myself on being an efficient packer.
I’m going downstairs to weigh my underwear again.
