Don’t you hate it when you find gear you don’t use left in your pack after a trip? How about when it’s the same unused gear over the course of multiple trips? We’ve got 6-8 pieces of gear you can simply ditch, shave some weight and save some money…because you’re not using it anyway.

Some of the Topics Discussed
