Pack

    • Zpacks ArcBlast
      • 30 lb weight limit
    • $295 + extras
    • ordered 5/15/15 (expected to arrive mid/late June):
      • Volume: 52 Liters - it was this or 60, close call, both will fit a standard bear can, I thought 60 might be a bit too bulky for me
      • Color: All Army Green w/ Black accents - was tempted by orange and indigo but was swayed by green being a good stashing color
      • Torso Height: Shortest (18 inches) - as per measurements & email to Zpacks
      • Belt Length: Small (26 inches and up) - current pack measures 22", get lumbar pad if too big
      • Shoulder Pouch
      • Key Pocket (.2 oz)
      • Ice Axe Loops (Both Sides) (.1 oz) - for future mountaineering adventures
      • Trekking Pole Holders, One Side (.2 oz)
      • Shock Cord Lashing (.5 oz) - to compress for use as day pack


Shoes

  • main shoes - Altra Superior 1.5
    • Joe recommended - many people used them on JMT & PCT, zero drop but thicker sole than Vivos, better for rocky Sierras terrain
  • camp/crossing/alternate shoes - Vivobarefoot Breatho Trail
  • 2-3 pairs of socks, probably smartwool PhD or Darn Tough
    • test to make sure I don't need liners or bring coolmax liners just in case
    • all same brand for interchangeability, except maybe the sleeping pair
  • gaiters (Dirty Girl FTW!)
