Thread: pack advice

Like I said, the pack is listed as 35L, but the way I pack it, I think its more like 45L completely full. I took the following items (I wore some of the clothes, i.e. they didn't all go in the pack)

Food:

BC Meals x10 double, x10 single serves
Made up some musilie with nuts and dried fruit + added milk powder and pre bagged x10 (just add hot or cold water and eat)
50x coffee sachet's (yes I have an addiction)
Some lollies and chocolate
Musilie bars x20
1.5L drink bottle
Gas cooker and 2x Canisters (could Have got away with only one, but not worth the risk)
Coffee cup (I like plastic, not metal)
Small dia15cm frying pan/do everything pot and tinfoil for the lid
Lighter

Camp gear:
Fairydown Sleeping bag
MSR Hubahuba tent
I used a larger inflatable mat on this trip - but now I have an Epeed sleeping mat which is way smaller again
Inflatable pillow
Ridgeline Pikau for day pack use and doubles as pillow slip


Clothes:
Hunters Element XTR rain jacket
Swazi water proof paints (gortex bottoms for Tahr anorak) which I never used.
Fairydown puffer jacket
3x sets of thermals (tops and longs)
2x mid layer polar fleece tops
1x mid layer polar fleece paints
4x socks
1x wollen hat
Ashley gumboots (the finest foot wear money can buy haha)

Misc:
Small film canister of suncream
Insect repallant
Mesh head net to keep sand-fly's away (best tip ever!!!!!!)
Batteries (GPS and Head lamp, I took shit loads)
EPIRB
Head lamp
Pocket knife
GPS
Rangefinder
Bino's
Windmeter
Altimeter
Smart-phone (and USB AA battery powered charger)
Laminated drop charts
Rifle (set up for longrange 3-15x zoom scope)
Ammo
Ear plugs
pull through (Otis brand - very good stiff pull through that can unblock a plugged barrel)
Bipod
Compass
Map
Electrical tape
Inner tube for lighting fires
String (10m)
Leatherman tool
Roaring horn (aka - dishwashing bottle)



Proof is in the picture I guess? All packed up with an additional load. If you look carefully you can even see 35L written on the pocket of the pack.


I think that's about it, no doubt I forgot to list something...but that's the guts of it from memory.

This should be made a stick somewhere.
