Isn't backpacking all the same? That's the question I want to address in this video. Much of the talk you see around backpacking is how much weight you can save with different pieces of gear. In this video, I talk about how focusing on a lightweight backpacking system can enhance your experience in the backcountry, allowing you to refine a system that makes certain the gear you take has a purpose and isn't dead weight that ends up not getting used.
