Join us as Reuben breaks down his ultralight backpacking kit — a 4.5 lb base weight system he’s refined over years of experience and over 100 nights a year sleeping under the stars around the world. From alpine treks to remote jungles, this minimalist setup proves that you don’t need a heavy pack to thrive outdoors.

    This was really interesting, thank you for sharing! I like his ideals, though I’d like to incorporate them utilizing less plastic, particularly for things I’ll be heating up, like the fosters can. It’ll take some thinking, though, as a quick brainstorm is not giving me anything that would be as functional or light as the fosters can without the plastic lining.

      Does Fosters have a plastic lining? or other beer cans?

        At least in the US, all aluminum cans do. I can’t speak to the situation in other countries.

          I think I will stay with a titanium pot.
