Backpacking System, Extended Stay by Nutnfancy, Part 1
This is Part 1 of an 8-part extended stay backpacking system review by Nutnfancy, focusing on a "firepower"-oriented approach for remote, high-elevation Rocky Mountain excursions. The system prioritizes capability for weight and bulk, designed for establishing a base camp rather than daily long-distance hiking. This segment covers clothing, cooking, water prep, carry, knives, fire-making, sleeping, shelter, first aid, and specialized items like inflatable rafts, PFDs, and specific tools. The reviewer emphasizes the proven effectiveness and scrutinized merits of each selection, acknowledging the system's substantial total weight (80+ lbs) but arguing for its superior high-country capabilities.
