[QUOTE="jimss, post: 1564501, member: 66919"] I weighed all my gear and clothes around 15 years ago when I started traveling to Alaska to hunt and fish. It gave me a good excuse to update a lot of heavy/bulky gear. This not only made packing and hauling easier but also a lot cheaper on the airlines. The first items I replaced/updated were the heaviest and bulkiest items on my list (backpack, tent, sleeping bag, rifle, spotting scope, tripod, etc). I also went through all of my clothes including raingear, boots, etc. I quickly found out it wasn't cheap and cost a pile of cash to replace them! I ended up selling quite a bit of gear on Craigslist and elsewhere that I didn't use to pay for many of the new items. It was amazing how much bulk and weight were lost when I did this. Now I'm pretty well set up with quality, light weight gear and clothes that ought to last for years! [/QUOTE]
