Go Ultralight #2. Fine-Tune Your Backpack for Summer Camping

Experience the joy of ultralight backpacking. In this episode, I fine-tuned my kit for summer camping, reducing fully loaded pack weight to 8.7 lb (3.9 kg). The pack was so light that I hardly noticed it. Changes to the kit were inexpensive. You don’t have to spend a lot to go ultralight. For example, in this episode I replaced a $65 Hennessy HEX FLY tarp with a $15 Ozark Trail Sun Wall nylon tarp. Both tarps are equally waterproof. However, HEX Fly is thicker and more durable.
