Gear List Gear Review
Over the last year I have been testing, rejecting and sewing gear for the trip. Several pieces of gear are now for sale. I have managed to put together an 18lb* pack filled with lightweight, durable and functional gear. If you've ever been near me for any length of time, you would know how proud I am of my homemade Fosters can stove. (see video) Everything listed below is ALL of my gear for the entire trip. in some case's theres 2,3 and sometimes 4 of the same thing. If something breaks while on the trail my loving wife will resuply me with an extra. Some gear listed will be sent to colder areas and viseversa.
*15 lbs without food or water.
