[pct-l] lightweight backpacks

[kdpo at gottawalk.com (Ken Powers)]

My Gossamer gear G-4 weighed in at 15.8 oz. The Gossamer gear Mariposa we 
switched to weighed just over 16 oz. The total weight of those 2 packs is 
less than your 36 oz backpack. Each of my packs has a thru-hike. I am 
guessing the Mariposa carried over 30 pounds including water and food at the 
start of a 6 day carry in Nevada.

I htink Yogi mentioned Six-Moons new pack that is not available yet. Try
