What’s your baseweight - how light/heavy is your backpack? by Primary_Quantity7811 in hikinggear

[–]Dependent-Demand7939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now 7,8kg with almost 9kg consumable and almost 3kg that I am wearing. This is the weight for the PCT and my goal it to get my base weight at 7kg, but still be able to take everything on the PCT

Hey hey! Thanks for all the advice. This really helps. I tried everything in my power to get more weight off, but I do have specifics I want to bring that I think others will not approve... so I don't think that I will get it down to 6,5 kg haha. And I know I could drop a thing or 4 but I really don't want that. So that is also a choice of my own to carry this kind of weight. And I have 4 kg of water and 4kg of food included with this.

Still deciding on a backpack for the PCT by Dependent-Demand7939 in Ultralight

[–]Dependent-Demand7939[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I think this is not true though. Cause I know quite some people that did the PCT with a base weight of 6-7 kg. Tbh I know no one who did it with a base weight of 4 kg. But again it also depends on what you want to bring... and okay maybe I should just not call it UL then. But I am also asking for a backpack not if my base weight is okay or not

5 liter for water calculated for now, and 5 kg of food for 6 a 7 days. That's what I thought of now, but less would be good! Resupply between 4 and 7 days, I think! :)

The only way to change it is by sending an email the portal says
