But it&#8217;s worth noting that my 17-ounce sleeping bag has kept me warm when the temperatures are below freezing. The food adds up to more than 6,700 calories, plus I tend to eat a lot of wild berries. I keep iodine pills for purifying water in my first aid kit. Always stop often to refill the plastic water bottle. You never want to run out of water.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t an exercise in deprivation. I have done that too, going out with just a plastic bag to sleep in and a few granola bars. This list is what I need for comfort, warmth and safety. It is actually very enjoyable to easily walk twenty miles through the mountains, with less than ten pounds on my back. With the right skills, equipment and preparation, ultralight backpacking is never about suffering. Regardless of when you go and where you go, always tell someone where you will be. Do not deviate from your plan so searchers can easily find you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s an ultralight backpacking list, an example of what I typically take on a weekend hike.
