Beautiful pictures, thanks for the report.

This might be more relevant to an "Ask-a-thru-hiker" thread, but would you mind briefly going over what is included in your 10lb pack with approximate weight of each item? I have only done day hikes up this point but lately I've been having an itch to do something longer and don't really know where to begin when it comes to gear.

Did you have a lot more when you did your thru-hike? How much extra weight does water and food normally add? Long hikes in general are fascinating to me, so I would certainly like to see an "ask me" thread if you get the chance.

I'd also be interested in that info. I'm doing a solo 5 day hike next week. I haven't weighed my pack but there's absolutely no way I'll be even close to 10 pounds.
