***60L, grey, 19" with two side pockets, shock cord lashing, and a key pocket.  
***Krystle ordered 5/15/15 (expected to arrive mid/late June):
*Bear cans (rent?)
****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
***Aaron got a 60L, grey, 19" with two side pockets, shock cord lashing, and a key pocket.

***Krystle ordered [http://www.amazon.com/Altra-Womens-Superior-1-5-Running/dp/B00F36Y930 Altra Superior 1.5] on 5/14
***Krystle ordered [http://www.amazon.com/Altra-Womens-Superior-1-5-Running/dp/B00F36Y930 Altra Superior 1.5]. Superior 2.0 may be "blockier."
****Joe recommended - many people used them on JMT & PCT, zero drop but thicker sole than Vivos, better for rocky Sierras terrain
**camp/alternate (flip flops? chacos? barefoots?)
****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.
*Shelter
****Superior 2.0 is more expensive and looks so blocky and I have skinny feet so
**Option A: Standalone tent
****I love the velcro in the back for gaiters
*** Big Agnes Jack Rabbit SL2 (note: apply additional waterproofing)
**camp shoes (flip flops? xeros?)
***also for stream crossings

****Could save a little weight by using my titanium stakes, how many stakes does this tent actually need? Come with 10 that weigh 5.1 oz total, my 6 weigh 1.3 oz
***needs replacement stakes
***removable rain fly for stargazing (though this can easily be arranged outside of the tent as well)
