yanzhang Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 <p>Dear Philip,</p> <p>Thanks for your advice. I will have to definitely keep my backpack under 45lbs, in order to hike 10km+ to get the site. The down Pant is about 3 oz (90grams) weight, I only need it during the night outside the tent in order to make photos. I will get a good sleeping mat.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas_dannhauser Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 <p>Yan, sounds like you are getting well equiped. I had a look at some of the portfolio you have posted here on P-net. Marvelous images. Please post some more from your upcoming trips, and if you would share a description of the backpacking part of your trip, I think many of us would be interested to read this. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philip_wilson Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 great photos - it looks like you shot by where I live in 2012 (by Banff). As I mentioned if it is very cold (and damp) watch for condensation when bringing the camera into a warm tent. Just wrapping it in something to allow it to warm up slowly works - a cold camera in a warm (damp) tent can suffer from internal condensation and fail.

yanzhang Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 <p>Hi Philip,</p> <p>Thanks a lot for mentioning the condensation issue. I will take an additional care for this when I shoot in the cold weather.<br> Regards.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_davies2 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 <p>Check out Stephenson's Warmlite equipment at warmlite.com. Not cheap but well-designed, very lightweight gear for cold weather camping. Good stuff . . .</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
