Well mate, follow my multi-day example and you’ve got a 200g weight saving right there.

Jeez, I did the whole of Aussie on two pairs of y-fronts!

Have had no issues here. Arrived within one week. I suggest getting in contact via email. They have bene great to communicate and deal with.

Any recommendations on lightweight insulated sleeping mats for cold conditions?

Thermarest XTherm if you want the warmest sleeping mat to weight ratio you can get with a 6.9 R-Value, or the slightly lighter option of Thermarest NeoAir XLite with 4.2 R-Value.

Is that where your profile name came from? Haha ��

What do you use for carrying water @burtonator? Bottle or bladder?

Also, why do people have titanium utensils? A plastic spork is lighter again and does the job just fine...what am I missing?

I use those Swedish plastic sporks, and carry a 1.5L plastic water bottle. Bottle weighs nothing, and I like the unrestricted flow.

36grams empty.
I have broken a couple of the plastic sporks which is why I use titanium now

I also use water pouches instead of bottles. You can squeeze any air out, fold it and the remaining water doesn't slop about when on the move.

The plastic sporks are not long enough to reach the bottom of a dehy packet

Have you noticed how there is a halfway 'rip' option on back countries now, it turns them into a bowl. Reaches fine in my experience :-)
