Every year the debate is the same; comfortable sleeping vs heavy load. Should I take the luxury sleeping mat that weighs nearly 4 pounds, or carry the 3/4 mat weighing 1.6 pounds? Do I risk having cold feet and sore hips from hard ground, or sore hips from carrying too heavy a load, but warm feet at night?
The preliminary pack weight is 37 pounds with water, but there is no food or fuel. No cookies. No cake. No board games. This is getting to feel like deprivation. Well, duh.
Deprived in one sense, but supplanted by a supernal adventure.
