[QUOTE="packgoatguy, post: 565880, member: 27192"] Sorry for the wait on pics. Here are a few of my tents, sleeping bag, and back pack. The first tent, the all light green pic, is my 1 pound 1 man, made out of sil nylon with a sewn in tyvek bottom. The second tent, the dark on light green is the 2 pound 3 man tent, which started as an 8x10 sil nylon tarp, which we added the front (as seen in the first couple pics) and then later added a back so it could be pitched in a normal tent shape for more headroom. It has an interior bugnet tent sewn to a tyvek bottom included in the weight. Neither tent requires poles, and I have never had problems finding the sticks necessary to prop up the ends. The sleeping bag is a military 0 degree mummy bag that we cut out part of the bottom and sewed in a piece of sil nylon in its place. I combine the sleeping bag with my Thermarest Neo Air All Season (nearly a 5 R, and 2.5 inches, and only a pound, and packs to about the size of a 1 liter pop bottle) The backpack is shown in daypack mode and fully extended. It doesnt look like much, but it was cheap, serves a variety of purposes, is comfortable enough to haul heavy loads, can expand out to haul a lot of volume, and only weighs a little over 3 pounds.
