Before Packing

This is what it looks like packed:

The packed rucksack weighs 12.6 kg. I'm quite pleased with that. My ME Belay Jacket and the other clothes I'll be wearing aren't packed of course. It has food for a couple of days. There will be a time when I have food for 5 days so that'll add about 1.5 kg and I'll probably be carrying half a litre of water most days (0.5 kg).

So... I'm off on the 06:56 from Hebden Bridge tomorrow morning and my next post should be from Glenfinnan on Monday 24th April.
