Sandals are good to have if you are likely to walk part of the camino with it. Otherwise. yes just a flip flop or crocs for indoor use.My hiking shoes weigh in at 1.5 lbs, sleeping sack is 1.4lbs....Maybe I should switch out my Tevas for Crocs and save another pound...
Only the pack.clarification question -- when you (the royal "you") talk about pack weight, are you including the clothes and shoes you are wearing? Or only what's literally in your pack while you will be walking?? Thanks
it includes water, but not what I am wearing. I am not carrying an extra bag, it is all in the backpack.
Twelve pounds? Wow. How about sharing your packing list? Thanks.The ideal weight will depend on what you feel is essential for your everyday. Each year we carry less weight. This year will be below 12 pounds including a liter of water.
So I can only recommend less is better.
I much prefer the consistency of using from the skin out measures, where everything you will wear and carry gets counted in your weight budget. I also prefer to use BMI=25 weight for actual height, rather than my actual weight, for load calculations.more clarification -- I will carry 32 oz water and 16 oz food in my pack and have included my poles & fanny pack in my carry weight but not the shoes and clothes I'll be wearing (3.4lb) . I'm 5'8" tall and weigh 175lb today. My carry weight as described is 15.75lb. plus wearing weight 3.4lb = 19.1lb.
So, my "carry" weight looks good but my overall weight looks heavy.....
I like your thinkingMy take away is that I should stop stressing and just see how my pack feels on the road. I'm set for my first full load training walk tomorrow. Thanks for your input.
Nice list Andrea...I love my Moab Ventilators (one size larger). Are yours waterproof?Here is my complete list -- includes wearing (3.4lb) and carrying (15.75lb) = 19.1
still a work in progress...
