Well as of today I have purchased my major gear: pack, shelter and sleeping bag. Respectively, Gossamer Gear Mariposa Pack, ZPacks Hexamid™ Solo-Plus Tent, and ZPacks™ 900 Fill Power Down Solo Sleeping Bag – 20 Degrees, Medium Length, Wide Width. The former I have, and the latter two have been ordered. Now I have to learn to operate with them efficiently.
