My whole life people have said, "Do not sweat the small stuff." It is usually well-advised. But in light rucksack is a good idea to "sweat the small stuff."
You can use the most weight of the larger items that you wear, how you trim your tent, sleeping bag, and the backpack itself. Then you take the sleeping pad, rain gear, and cooking equipment. But do not stop there. All the other little things add up too. If you trim them ruthlessly, you can carry much less weight.You will enjoy the freedom, and you can maintain comfort. In a way, you will have more comfort, not only to reduce weight, but also because of the smaller size and simplicity of the wheel.
Remember that each technology is an easy alternative. Pick and choose what works for you. Every backpacker is different. Do it your way.
Have you ever been ready to leave for a backpacking trip and grabbed something at the last minute? Maybe you've packed a flashlight and extra weighed Shirt, 6Ounces. That seems pretty easy. It was certainly not going to ruin your hike. Not by itself anyway. But it must be borne in lightweight backpack the thing that sums up every single piece.
In my backpack I carry a sandwich size ziplock bag that weighs less than 6 ounces - and it holds 27 items. The 27 pieces of gear that weigh the same as a flashlight, many hikers. Read the list and see how we can trim weight and enjoy a light, simple backpack.

There it is. That Article 27 of the equipment that weigh less than 6 ounces it! You can do it and enjoy the freedom.
You can reduce the weight of theother small motion. For the large garbage found large resealable 10 ½ "x 12" bags in supermarkets, work, and they weigh only 4/10s of a oz If you need glasses, begin to find the easiest, frameless quality pair and then make the one you always leave in your backpack. For your card, take only what you need, but do not cut the legends or emergency "escape".
Some car keys can be eroded. I drilled nearly half the weight of me. Iattached some bright Mylar (from balloons), so the key can easily recognize when they fall. Take some cash, at least one credit card and your driver's license, but leave your wallet and most of its contents home. It's dead weight.
Do not skimp too much on toilet paper, but in a Ziplock bag space. And be sure to use white unscented. A super light blanket you can protect only 1.8 ounces. Your first aid kit is quite complete and very easy. You can with a"Mini-kit" and throw the plastic bag it comes out on the site content in a Ziplock bag and the weight savings, and threw the original container, you can actually add more emergency items or things you use most. These may include items such as butterfly bandages, a roll of surgical tape light, additional packages of triple antibiotic ointment or additional moleskin. You can get a lot of first-aid packet into two ounces.
Most people want a kind of cushion, but you experiment with light. YourWork clothes in a cloth bag would be. Part of your package might work. I use a small piece of foam, 7/10s weighs one ounce, and add clothing under more loft.
Some hikers do not leave home without a camera. There are many options for lightweight cameras. There are backpackers, deodorant is a must to see. Arrid is a cream that can be placed in a small plastic container. If you are reading glasses, look at the very narrow form. They are probably half the weight of yourregular pair. For your medications, use small ziplock bags if their drugs do not need to be in super, airtight containers.
If you "sweat the small stuff", you not only save weight, you simplify your hiking techniques and store loosely in a backpack. Cutting the weight of the small things is another way to swim your way down.
