He doesn't have a full gear list around that I can post, however, his pack usually weighs around 35 pounds: depending on how much water he is carrying, it could be anywhere from 30-40 pounds. He is pretty much carrying exactly what he carried on his AT hike, you can check out his adventures on the AT here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.ryansatotalgoober.com/adventures/appalachiantrail.html<BR/><BR/><BR/>-Amanda from SeattleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838884300056139535.post-72812576590769358732008-03-01T10:32:00.000-08:002008-03-01T10:32:00.000-08:00There is an awesome restaurant in St. Marks.
