3 lb Ultralight Day Hiking Checklist – stay safe, be light, have fun!Day hiking is supposed to be fun. And part of the fun is a light pack for easy walking. Unfortunately, most day hiking checklists are way too heavy. If you add up the weight of their suggested gear, your “daypack” may approach the weight of a backpack for a multi-day trip in the backcountry. But on the other hand, you DO want all the right gear to be safe! So what to do? This ultralight day hiking checklist will help you select the right gear to keep your daypack light, a spring in your step, but still keep you safe and happy. Better yet, it has a lot of inexpensive gear so you won’t go broke in the process!Lead photo, Buckskin Gulch Utah: One of the longest and deepest slot canyons in the world.
