In summer, tent, stove & pot, and sleeping gear weigh from five to eight pounds total, usually, depending on which tent. A few times, I've cut these items to about three pounds in very mild climate.

I try to limit other stuff to a few obvious necessities, but sometimes throw in a folding backrest chair, in place of sleeping mat. Another exception is a mini am/fm/shtwv receiver for infotainment.

My pack is usually 55L capacity, and its actual weight varies widely, although it rarely approaches 30 pounds, which is nearly all the pain I'm willing to tolerate for fun.
