We tried to break our walking down to...

I have an Osprey Kestrel 48l, larger than I need but I take it on other trips and it meets my needs. My Wife has the same but a 38l.
We pack the same way, fain gear in the top outer lid pocket including poncho, shell jacket, gloves, spare pair of socks and towel. In the inner lid we put a...
