Im loving the 70s backpacking photos people are posting. Heres my own offering from 1975: yes, the way-too-short shorts (denim!), the knee sox, the heavy leather boots with red laces, two spoons, one shared pot and Svea stove (until it exploded), external-frame Kelty aircraft-aluminum ultralight (for its time, quite exciting) and a BOLO machete! Haha! But we had a custom double mummy by Western Mountaineering when they were still a garage-based start-up in San Jose. At the TH heading into Trinity Alps, packed for a week = 35# pack. (But his was 50#)
