In this site you can download the gear planner spreadsheet which is an amazing tool to help you curve your backpack's/rucksack's weight. It is probably the best one I have seen in years of planning and weighing all of my gear. It was not created by me, but by Erik a young man who is known by many as Erik the Black. He is a long distance backpacker and believes in ultralight backpacking to make your trek enjoyable. Erik has an array of information on his blog. I hope you find this as helpful as my husband and I have. If you would like to personalize it and unlock the spreadsheet, it can be done. If you'd like more information on how to do that I will gladly help!

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

Thank you. I don't have Excel and am having a little difficulty with it in Google Sheets but still giving it a try.

The winners of the Backpacking Light Trip Planning Spreadsheet Contest can be found here; I am playing around with them right now to see if any of them will work well in Google Docs.
