Overnight backcountry backpacking/hiking in the spirit of taking less and doing more. Ask yourself: do I really need that?

Hello! Not ultralight, but working my weight down a little at a time. I’m a petite person, so I don’t really have much of a choice haha. I like to get ideas and tips from the ultralight community from time to time :)

hello and welcome! where was your last trip? anything fun planned?

[–] kiyoomii@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks! My last trip was near Baker Lake. My next one is going to be near Packwood! I just started backpacking last year, and I’m slowly getting out there.

WA state is beautiful, I've hiked through it on the PCT and would love to go back one day! How was Baker Lake?

It was gorgeous during the day. We were right by the lake and got some great views. At night, we had a sudden thunderstorm pass through (with tons of rain and lightning ofc). Definitely an experience to remember!
