- 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

- Shock Cord Lashing (.5 oz) - to compress for use as day pack
- Zpacks ArcBlast
Other
- bear cans (rent?)
- shoes
- main shoes (vivos? minimalist?)
- Krystle ordered Altra Superior 1.5 on 5/14
- Joe recommended - many people used them on JMT & PCT, zero drop but thicker sole than Vivos, better for rocky Sierras terrain
- Someone somewhere on the Internet said Superior dries more quickly than Lone Peak, but I did not confirm; these seem meshy and quick drying though.
- Superior 2.0 is more expensive and looks so blocky and I have skinny feet so
- I love the velcro in the back for gaiters
- Krystle ordered Altra Superior 1.5 on 5/14
- camp shoes (flip flops? xeros?)
- also for stream crossings

- prodigy 26 oz / $170
- spirit quilt 21 oz / $215
- DIY 24 oz / way cheaper (primaloft available here)
