I just figured all my gear weight in 77, a total of 30 lbs. ( not counting
food and water ) if hiking today, I could cut down to 20 lbs. Still , food
and water are the heaviest items in anybody's pack. Even at 3 lbs a day,
that's 21 extra pounds to pack not adding water. So 50 pounds would be
realistic for any thru-hiker. ( Unless you eat like a bird and don't pack
water thru the desert)
