I don't know what the best shelter/tent/tarp is, but I recommend not using an American Eureka Solitaire tent. I had one of these, and all the poles broke. I would like to find a small tent with a vestibule that can just fit a pair of shoes. I like to store my pack outside the tent.

[jshwdy]

Pack: GoLite Jam 50 = 30.5 (new pack and I havent cut any of the excess strappage off it yet, might be able to get an ounce or two off it when I do)
Bag: Marmot Atom = 24 (on its way so this is the advertised weight)
Pad: Thermarest Z-lite full = 14 (thinking about cutting it to save a few ounces)

TOTAL = 110.5 ounces
