it's easy to pack for a week if it's the Squeeze and I on the Wing and we're moteling it. It's a whole different story when I go for a week of rough camping with the guys on the KLR.
One of the luxuries I don't have room for is clean clothes every day. Next week I'll be gone for 7-9 days and will pack 4 changes of clothes.
When your travelling with others and the morning routine involves heading to the bush with a zip lock baggie of toilet paper few notice or care that you're in the same T-shirt.
How are others that camp handling this?
Just for grins this is a list of what I usually take:
Shelter - tent, sleep bag, flashlight, air matress (thermorest Neoair Uberlite -the size of a tall boy packed)
Clothes - Tees, socks and gitch (x4) hoodie and extra jeans and running shoes one each
Bike - tool kit, bungie net, air pump (spare air filter and tube depending on trip)
Misc - Rain gear & bug gear, Shaving kit (w/TP), First aid kit
Food/ Cooking - Water, a few oranges, sometimes some canned fish, plate, cup, KFS and jack knife
- breakfast - could be a warm beer while striking the tents and packing - maybe a greasy spoon along the way
- lunch - fry truck, gas station sandwhich or maybe skip it if we had a late breakfast
- supper - grab food before finding a camp spot (whatever but likely something you can cook on a stick)
Luxuries - camp chair with back and small coffin for my uke
This leaves just enough room to squeeze in some food and 4-5 beers at the end of the day.
