Ultralight 10lbs baseweight. I forgot, I did carry a windshirt in Isle Royale, but I wouldn't always do that. I forgot to put out my spoon too! My shoes were New Balance Leadville 12 4E. A better way to pitch the trailstar is here, but with the trekking poles not so low. www.flickr.com/photos/den_dzjow/5454242124/in/photostream/ Mike Clellands small item kits www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X8WYIUHxkI
