You wanted to know what’s in my backpack?

Well here we go. Throughout the years I’ve been buying new gear, better gear, lighter gear. My backpack used to be very uncomfortable, my sleeping bag was almost the size of my pack, my pad took up so much space as well, I took a fork and a knife from the kitchen, wore cotton sweaters. This is all in the past and since backpacking became a bigger part of my life, I decided to make something of it. I spent money on gear to make my time in the outdoors more enjoyable.

You’ll notice I have more than one item here and there. It’s because I pick and choose on every hike what I take; sometimes the weather and place we go to make the decision for me. Scroll down to check out what’s in my pack.

*I keep updating this page as I get new gear. Last updated: 5/30/2018
