My wife and I had one easter a ten days skiing trip in Jotunheimen hut-to-hut. When we started, we agreed that I carried 17 kilos and she 13 kilos.

On the last day up a long walley she was so much more stronger than me, even commenting that she had expected more from me.

But as we were waiting for the train, I lifted her backpack and had my answer. Her pack was now 9 kilos, while mine was 21 kilos. By some "accident" each time we had packed and unpacked, all the heavy items had unnoticed one by one ended up by me. And all the light and easy had gone the other way!.

From then on I regularly check on both packs, so that such accidents will not happen again. One never knows, can't be too sure.
