Is that including the stuff you'll be wearing, or is that all spare clothes?

Swap the tub of Vaseline for a chapstick will save you those 9g, and the handle on that toothbrush is looking very excessive  ;)  (admittedly, I can't bring myself to chop my adventure toothbrush)

Yes, I am in the middle of packing it now to see how it gets on.

In the clothing I have a waterproof jacket & Trousers, Down Jacket, Softshell Jacket (I was going to take my primaloft but softshell seems more sensible), softshell trousers, base layer, long johns & Socks. I will be wearing another pair of trousers, base layer, socks, pants & Boots (All not included into 9kg weight). And the reason for the tub of vasaline is its  more for rubbing in special areas.

Need to pull my hair out. This is all my gear without food and water and weighs 9g over 9kg. Do you think it may be to heavy?

is that a self inflating bed or do you have to assemble it each night?  ::)
