Hi, moving over from Reddit. Iโ€™m not ultralight by far (base weight is 17 lbs) but Iโ€™m always looking for fun hikes and ways to shave a few lbs/oz/grams off my gear.

Hello! Not ultralight, but working my weight down a little at a time. Iโ€™m a petite person, so I donโ€™t really have much of a choice haha. I like to get ideas and tips from the ultralight community from time to time :)

Thanks! My last trip was near Baker Lake. My next one is going to be near Packwood! I just started backpacking last year, and Iโ€™m slowly getting out there.

WA state is beautiful, Iโ€™ve hiked through it on the PCT and would love to go back one day! How was Baker Lake?
