[WA Per] WTB - solo tent/daypack/sleeping pad/sleeping quilt
Thu 29 May, 2014 9:54 pm
Hi all, I have quite a list! Looking to trade up my gear for lighter/ultralight versions.
Picked out what I want to buy, but thought I'd have a look around and see if I can't find some secondhand stuff! Looking to buy items cheaper than what I am planning to spend on new items, obviously. Willing to pay for postage.
Doesn't have to be the items I specifically list below, open to alternatives! Or if you think I should buy something else I'd welcome the advice
SOLO ULTRALIGHT TENT
I am looking at buying the Six Moon Lunar Solo tent for $300
I'm going backcountry hiking in Alaska in July, meaning RAIN, so after something that can withstand that, but can also handle Aussie conditions.
SYNTHETIC SLEEPING QUILT
Planning to buy Thermarest Regulus Blanket 4C, Synthetic $160 (picking this up in the USA, hence lower price)
Must be synthetic! Would also consider a synthetic bag. Rated to around 5C-10C would be ideal.
20L~DAYPACK/BACKPACK
Probably just get a cheapo Blackwolf 20L for around $50.
Something comfortable, otherwise no preference. Could go to 30L.
Willing to spend the $50 for something good quality 2nd hand.
SLEEPING PAD
Thermarest ProLite, S, $85 (picking this up in the USA, hence lower price)
Any Thermarest would be pretty good though.
Ta guys!
