What's peoples kit list for a day hike?
Realising how little I take on day hikes, got me thinking that I could replace my heavy pack ~800g (Osprey Tempest 30[1]) with an Exped Cloudburst 25 for 280g...
So what do I need to take with me:
- FAK
- Survival bag - 8.6oz
- Something to sit on
- Paramo Quito Jacket ~500g (worn, or strapped to bag)
- 1L diet coke bottle ~35g empty 1.035kg full
- Sawer Mini ~65g
- Map
- Compass ~50g
- Phone, wallet, keys
- Lunch
So what do you take on a day hike? What would you add to the above?
