I'm about to get all of my gear and could use some advice. I'm planning to start proper backpacking trips after a hiatus in my early twenties. I'm not rich, but I'm willing to spend if it's worth it. So let me know what gear you would bring on a 2-3 day backpacking trip. Going to be around the PNW and Utah area to start, but would like to explore some of the good spots in Canada, like Banff. What's the brand and model of the gear you would get for that? By that I mean backpack, flashlight, sleeping bag, stove, ect. Any help is really appreciated! #hiking #activity source
