What did I start out with?
The Basics: Pack, Tent, Sleeping bag and pad, cooking equipment: 15.3 poundsFood from Campo to Laguna CG: 5.2 pounds
Clothing: 3.0 pounds
Miscellaneous including electronics: 5.2 pounds
Total Weight of Pack: 28.7 pounds
Water: (see below) 6 liters @ 13.2 pounds
How much water will I carry the first day? Based on recent experience with 85+ degree temperatures in the desert southwest near Tucson, Arizona and after reviewing the water report I expect to start out 6 liters of water. Three will be in a bladder with three more in the form of water bottles that I'll re-use over the course of the trek. That may seem excessive, but I'd rather have extra water than not enough.
