Heres my ~7lb ultralight gear list. I am not a thru hiker, I used "thru-hiking"in the title to increase the range of my audience. However, I think this list would work very well on a thru hike with a few minor modifications.
I kept costs and weight of this list low by making, modifying, and buying second hand a lot of the items shown here. Im sure I left a few small critical items out (like ID, cash, Paper maps) and forgot to discuss some items in detail but this is the meat and potatoes of this years list for me.
Like I said in the video, for bug protection i will use my DIY hexamid tent once I finish making it.
I can get this list even lighter by getting or making a nicer quilt and using my lighter quilt for the summer months. Can drop even more weight by dropping the cook kit (which i do occasionally when its warmer out) and leaving behind items like the battery pack on shorter trips.
