I published my packing list on September 1, and supported it with a YouTube video. One piece of gear dumped a test and I had one gear failure due to lack of maintenance. Here are my opinions, views and experience using the gear that I packed. My shelter system for Lapland totalled grams including stakes and stuff sack:. When I first started putting together my packing list for this hike I was contemplating on taking my Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ultamid 2 tent. Last year I used my Zpacks Duplex which preformed great and lived up to my expectations. However, I wanted to use another shelter this year and after a test hike in August I decided on the Tarptent Notch. The Notch is an old favourite of mine and I always seem to sleep well in it. When I woke on day 6 on this years hike the wind had shifted direction to the east and blew with such force that the zippered door cord had loosened and the fly door blew into me like a sail full with wind. It was no big deal as nothing happened and I could just fasten it again while lying in bed. To be fair the wind had changed direction, the Notch had been pitched since pm the day before nearly 18 hours and it had survived a decent beating through the night. I would not hesitate in packing this shelter for another Arctic adventure. Not much to say here. This is a great pack that is comfortable and carried very nicely my light load of just over 11 kg on this trek. My pack looks dirty and used but it shows no drastic signs of wear. I get a lot of questions about the netting. People are concerned that the mesh pockets could easily be damaged being caught on brush and so on. The two side pockets and the large net pocket have no damage at all. I have used this pack for nearly 5 years below and above treeline! On arrival I was cold, wet and hungry. I knew from several years experience that all I needed was some warm food, dry clothes and a good sleep system to get my own internal body heater to keep me warm. I had to fasten all three clips on the back of my quilt and tighten the collar draw string on the first night to retain my body heat. Next morning there was fresh snow on the mountains. My quilt kept me nice and toasty. It is important to educate here that your quilt or sleeping bag does not warm you up. The quilt or sleeping bags job is to retain that heat and that is how you stay warm. Before you go to bed you should always eat and if you can exercise a little before jumping into bed then this will help too. Most nights I slept with the two top clips unfastened and draped the top section over me like I would at home with normal bed covers. My Foratata Down Quilt preformed well. The diversity of being able to close it up tight or open it up makes this sleep system a winner for such a wide scope of night temperatures. I always clear a site for sticks and stones before I pitch a shelter. I never bother with pump bags or battery driven air-pumps and I just blow air into my pads. This pad is still going strong. I have nothing negative to say about this bit of kit. Some people complain that they are noisy. My Hyperlite Mountain Gear cuben stuff sack pillow is just over 3 years old. It has been turned inside out and then turned back again several times over the years. I wrote a review on this bit of kit back in August this year. After using my stuff sack pillow for some three years it is starting to show some signs of wear. I wrote that some of the seam sealing tape is starting to loose its adhesiveness. On the first day in the heavy rains my gear was put to the test. When I arrived at the hut and after I packed out my gear I noticed that some moisture had found its way through the areas on the tape where it was not sticking well any more. This is my own fault as I should of repaired the pillow before the trip. This is an easy fix using some DCF repair tape. So I guess that you could call this a gear failure for this adventure. The reason for going over to purchased meals from my own home-made dehydrated meals is because I wanted the most compact kitchen I own combined with using gas as fuel. Last year I used alcohol for fuel and a different pot system. You can read about it here. The concave design of the burner head creates the effect of a built-in windscreen. My cooking system for this hike lived up to my expectations. The pot was also my cup using it in combination with the 8 gram DIY pot cozy. This worked out really nice. I conducted a test today October 14, to simulate how much gas I would of used. I had no way of measuring the gas consumption at my hotel which is where the g size canister was disposed. I would typically drink a coffee at breakfast and one cup in the evening. I boiled aprox. On day 4 I stayed in the Vistas mountain hut and I used their gas at dinner time and for a cup of coffee on the morning of day 5. It appears that I would of used just under grams of gas. This is a worst case scenario as I tested the stoves today without any wind protection. I did however use my shelter as a wind shield on my hike. Robert asked me if there is a significant difference between the Soto Windmaster and the BRS T stoves with respect to fuel consumption. So I conducted a little test using both stoves. Here are my findings:. As far as food goes I should of taken some of my own meals as well as the expedition meals. I found that after 5 days of this type of food that I was missing some fibre in my diet. My own meals would of done the job and I proved this last year when I used only my home-made meals. I ended up purchasing some crisp bread and some ham-cheese in a tube that I used for lunches on the last couple of days. I was tired of the soups for lunch as well. The crisp bread did the job and my stomach thanked me for the switch. I regret my decision to pack this rain jacket. I used the same Inov8 rain rain pants as I used last year. I have no reason to change these pants out for anything else. They are very light and very breathable. The Injinji trail midweight mini crew toe socks in combination with the Altra Lone Peak 3. My toe socks weigh 55 grams while my Altras weigh in at grams for a pair in size 44 EU. This system in combination works for me. I have arthritis in my left foot and specifically the second smallest toe suffers with this inflammation. My total pack weight including food, fuel and water never really exceeds 11 kg. The toe socks and the Altra Lone Peaks cope well and wear perfect together with my pack weights. Hence the lightweight and ultralight backpacking theme. When I was on my Lapland hike last year I also used this system. I walked straight through all the streams and water crossings and climbed what ever mountain that was thrown at me. At night I dried my socks on a line in my shelter and my Altras dried overnight in the vestibule. The only thing that I would do differntly next time is to switch my waterproof socks back to a lighter pair and not to wear them during the day which is what I tried to do on the first day this year as a test. I should of done what I always do and just wear my Injinji socks which get wet and dry out. When I get into camp I would remove the Injinji socks and wear the waterproofs to keep my feet dry and warm. Then when I go to bed I wear my warm socks. This is my 3 sock system of wet Injinji toe socks , dry DexShell waterproofs and warm Darn Tough boot socks. This is what I did last year and it works. The DexShell waterproof breathable socks that I used this year were hopeless. They were only waterproof for a couple of hours and then the inside and outside of the socks were soaking wet. I wanted to try them out and test how long they would keep my feet dry. They have deffiantly dumped the test! Below is my full packing list copied and pasted from my spreadsheet. Note that water is not included in the weights. Really interesting choice of gear, and so many of my own favourites As Tucas, Tarptent, Treadlite, to name but a few. Like Liked by 1 person. Thanks for commenting and correcting me Robert. I can see now that after conducting some tests today that my remark is incorrect. The testing shows that I would of used at least grams of fuel so the larger gas canister was not an overkill. Sorry for the mistake. Not sure if you read the previous day 1 — 7 posts? On day 4 I stayed in a mountain hut and used their gas thus saving roughly 21 grams. This was a post hike 7 day gear review for this hike only as a follow up to the series. Like Like. Hi Robert, I have updated this post with regards to fuel consumption. Once again, thanks for bringing this to my attention. How did you find LIM jacket breathability? Also, because it was cheapish at an outlet, and lighter to boot. But I found that it is not beading water that well even when new, and I have no illusions about breathability, so I always carry a separate wind jacket. I also got a quilt but with grams fill…perhaps should have gone for OTOH, plus light down jacket and other clothing is good for about 0C, and I can probably manage even a few minus degrees. In any case, I am now a believer in quilts. So much more freedom to sleep and turn around, and I do not mind sleeping with my down jacket on. I only really had the rain on the first day and some on the last. On the first day I also had wind and sleet so everything was wet and moist. This surprised me. I reckon that my Berghaus hyper shell rain jacket 15, mm breathable 10, mm does a better job and it only weighs 89 grams. Good to hear about your experience with the quilt. I have 4 different quilts for different seasons and temps. A couple with down and 2 synthetic APEX. Just love my quilts. My experience is that when hiking with any amount of effort in near — 0C weather and rain, any shell jacket is going to be wet from inside if not through leaks, then through perspiration…. YMMV of course. Sleet really wets out even good DWR, and because it is cold, all perspiration condenses on the inside of the jacket. Oh, about the fuel consumption for stoves…your results match mine. I had Soto Amicus, not Windmaster, though. But this was indoors. Real killer for BRS is even slight wind, the flame flaps around wildly even with a small breeze. For a really small boil kit it is excellent, but I did not want to take it to an extended hike and be bothered about finding perfect wind shelter every time. Yes, I agree with the BRS in wind. I always try to hide behind my shelter with it. The Soto Windmaster is nearly impossible to blow out. The quality of the Soto Windmaster is also a lot better than the cheaper BRS and here there is no comparison. Everything feels nice with the Soto Windmaster. The Soto Windmaster also has an igniter on it not sure if the Soto Amicus has one? I like this feature. I defiantly feel a lot safer using the Soto Windmaster. The down side of it is the weight and price. Yes, Amicus also has piezo and I like it a lot. I agree that it has a quality feel to it, seals well without need to overtighten, does not bend or wobble etc. The only downside is that for some reason it is really tall, and thus a bit unstable. Perhaps that is because the burner head really heats up in use compared to some other stoves, and it needs to be kept further away from the canister? For ml kettle that I have, it is perfect.

Riksgränsen to Abisko via Vistas 2019 – Packing List for 7 days

Riksgransen buy coke

My itinerary can be read here. After my final comments below you can see my packing list copied from my spreadsheet. The weights do not include water but they do include food and fuel. The big three are the shelter, pack and sleeping system. I use the three for three principle which requires that the big three do not weigh more than three kilograms in total. My big three total is 2. The quilt is a custom order that I had manufactured specifically for my Kungsleden adventure. The pillow is also a stuff sack for my puffy jacket, two uses. This year I will be using the same Inov8 rain trousers as last time. Below is my full packing list copied and pasted from my spreadsheet. Note that water is not included in the weights.
