My total sleep system is right at five pounds. just wondering whats the lightest system you guys have.
What all are you including? If that's tent, pad, bag then that's pretty good. If that's just the pad and bag then I think you can improve a but still not terrible.
I think mine is tent - 31oz, bivy 6 oz, pad 21 oz and quilt 25 oz so just over 5 lbs. this gets me down to 25-30 and pretty comfy. Could go lighter but would sacrifice comfort and this is a good compromise for me
My lightest would be my bivy (13oz), 20 degree bag (16oz), and pad (12oz) which would be 41oz or just over 2.5lbs. I've done it comfortably down into the 20's.
Add my tipi (13oz), and treking pole to pitch it (7oz) and I'd be at 61oz or 3.8lbs which is my normal setup.
If I really wanted to go high class and take a free standing tent it would be between 4.5 and 5.5lbs depending on whether or not a take the nest.
I'm a penny counter, not an ounce counter.
What 20 degree bag are you running that comes in at 16ozs??? That's light!
My set up comes in at 4.4 lbs
