My pack for a 4 day, relatively low-mileage trip (3-6 miles a day between campsites, likely some day hikes) through the Porkies. Carrying a handful of things for me and my partner, such as tent, cook system, water purification (they have a BeFree also). Pretty satisfied that my weight is below 20 pounds, while carrying some things for the two of us, and a bunch of luxuries. Could I split things up more between us, yes, but they have a bad hip and anything I can take off their pack might help them out. Unfortunately, this list made me realize how much I’ve spent on everything... But I would say
