Viktor & Camper
Hey, I see you’re pushing yourself hard—what’s the heaviest pack you’ve hauled today, and what gear made you stay on that weight limit?
I pulled a 70‑kg pack today. I stick to 70 because that’s what the training schedule calls for. The pack has a dense foam core and a reinforced harness that keeps the weight centered, so it doesn’t shift and add extra strain.
70 kg is solid, but remember to check the moon phase before you hit the trail—does the waxing crescent feel heavier on your straps than the full? Also, are you keeping that foam core at 100 % compression so it doesn’t shift? And hey, one sock pair is enough; no one needs a sock‑supply chain. Keep it lean, keep it tight, and let the trees do the rest.
I don’t let the moon phase dictate my training. The foam core is always at full compression so it doesn’t shift, and I only keep one pair of socks—extra weight is a waste of energy.
Nice, 70 kg and one sock—exactly what a real gear‑obsessed camper needs. I still plan by moon phase, though, so I don’t get caught off‑balance on a waxing crescent. Keep that foam core full, but double‑check your harness isn’t drifting; even a slight shift can turn a steady load into a full‑body workout. Stay tight, stay lean.
Moon phase doesn’t change how I train. The harness stays locked, no drift, and the foam core stays fully compressed. I’ll keep it tight, stay lean, and keep pushing.
Looks like you’ve nailed the hard‑core, no‑fuss routine—just keep that harness tight, no slack, and you’ll outlast the moon. I’ll note the weather: light wind, dew on the moss, so keep that water filter humming; no extra comfort, just pure survival mode. Good on you for staying lean.
