Alright, a bit of an updated look. Got the cuben fibre trailstar on friday afternoon and had a night under it that night, seems to be perfect for what I wanted, it's a palace for one person and a dog.
All up excluding food the pack is weighing just on 9 kg for everything inside the pack.It was 10 kg for three days including food and the extra day bag but excluding some items like rifle, binos and one walking pole which aren't in the pack.
The puffy pants have been a good investment. They have zips up the the hips each side so when I can get them on and off easily while wearing boots.
I don't take much extra clothing anymore just a spare set of thermals for emergency inside the orange dry bag. Everything else gets used daily.
Walking poles are something I can't leave behind anymore, double as tent poles and make walking so much easier on my knees. It's utnreal how much easier it is coming downhill with a walking pole is. They're carbon fibre and only 150gm each.
Sleeping bag is a katabatic alsek 22 degree and using a half length thermarest.
