Well, my traveling kit weighs in at about 35 pounds.

....on a good day. Shoot, I have seen him hire sherpas to carry the
"portable" kit in and out of camp for him. They groan under the weight.

p.s I have a similar kit, it is called my Basement, doesn't travel well.


That's the problem -- I have so much crap, I can't whittle down what to
take. I do a fair amount of backpacking, and would like to keep the weight
at less than five pounds. I guess I'll find out just how possible this is.
