Gear

What is in the pack this season. Brands left out on purpose: most of this is unremarkable, and that is the point.

Sleep

• Single-wall tent with trekking-pole pitch, about 1.3 kg with stakes.
• Down bag, comfort 2 °C; a liner adds a few degrees in October.
• Inflatable pad, R-value 4. Patched once (see winter maintenance).

Kitchen

• Canister stove, 750 ml titanium pot with lid, foil windscreen (notes).
• Squeeze filter plus tablets as a backup (why both).

Clothing

• Merino base, light fleece, wind shell, synthetic puffy, rain jacket (how I use them).
• Two pairs of gloves from October to April. Two.

The full list with weights is in Packing list for two nights.
