[QUOTE="mcseal2, post: 491549, member: 22030"] I upgraded my sleeping pad to a thermarest Pro-lite plus in the 20x72 size and left out the heavy space blanket. I am looking at taking a sheet of tyvek for a floor if I use the Kifaru. I haven't decided what to use for a sleeping bag yet, I was looking at the thermarest Haven which is a 20 degree bag that only weighs 24oz, but it looks like a pain to get in and out of. I am still weighing options there. I will likely sleep in expedition weight long underwear top and bottom if it is cold, so I need a bag that will make up for the rest after the stove goes out. I have a Gerber folding saw also for wood cutting, also has a bone blade. I always carry a firesteel, small bic lighter, and a pill bottle full of cotton balls coated in vaseline. They light easy with either the steel or lighter, and I thought they would work for lighting the stove. I was thinking stick one on a piece of bark or something flat light it, and then build the fire on top of it. They will burn for 5 minutes or so once lit. If I can figure out how to get my updated list posted here from excel I will this evening. If not I will wait until I get my postage scale and have accurate weights to do it. [/QUOTE]
