Trek More Miles with a Lightweight Backpack
Anyone who has ever hiked over 20 miles in a day while carrying a backpack will know that weight is a really significant factor. Experiences hikers, trekkers and backpackers know that to reduce the weight of your gear you need to concentrate on the three main items: your sleeping bag, shelter and the backpack itself.
So you will want to leave your huge 10 pound tent and snug 5 pound sleeping bag at home and get yourself the lightest backpack you can find.
Believe it or not you can find some exceptionally high quality backpacks that weigh in at less than five ounces. That's no exaggeration. The typical capacity would be around 1800 cubic inches which is enough for around 15 pounds of gear. This should be more than enough for a lightweight sleeping bag, a tarpaulin and a few vital necessities like some food and a first aid kit. And some water of course.
In fact the water that you need to carry when trekking can become the heaviest item. This makes it worthwhile planning your route so that you can refill your water bottle and reduce the amount of water that you need to carry with you.
Another excellent benefit of going lightweight is that much of the gear is significantly cheaper than the heavier, tougher versions. You can even find some perfectly adequate lightweight backpacks, often sold as day sacks, in various bargain disount store costing only a few dollars. They may be simple designs with only one or two external pockets, but easily adequate for most lightweight backpacking expeditions. They may be cheap but they can be excellent for lightweight hiking trips.
If you are going lightweight it's also worth considering your clothing. Forget your all weather outdoor clothing and instead go for an ultra lightweight rain and wind proof fold-up cagoule and some light weight sports shoes rather than heavy walking boots.
When you've lightened your load with some lightweight clothing and less gear in a lightweight backpack you will find that a 20 mile trek will seem like nothing at all.
