So I have a $100 REI gift card and small dividend burning a hole in my pocket, along with the annual 20% off coupon. The trouble is that I can't really think of anything to buy. Here is my current setup:
1. Tent - Big Agnes Seedhouse SL3 - at 4 lbs, it is lighter than most 1-2P tents
2. Pack - Gregory Contour 75 (I hike with my kid and have to carry hero loads at times)
3. Sleeping Bag - Currently borrowing REI Subkilo 20 degree, but am ordering an Enlightented Equipment quilt soon - not sold at REI. I also have about 10 synthetic bags that are too bulky for backpacking.
4. Pad - Therm-a-Rest Neoair X-Lite Large size (x 2)
5. Insulation - Down sweater/Jacket - Costco special; Patagonia lightweight fleece sweater
6. Rain Gear/shell- Marmot jacket and pants
7. Filter - Sawyer Mini
8. Stove (2) - MSR Pocket Rocket; $11 Chinese Micro Rocket knockoff
9. Footwear - Zamberlain boots and Keen shoes
I am not really an ultralight guy, but like things light if possible. So.....tell me what to buy! Thanks!
