Karenina posted:Resources on ultralight packing would also be great. Or advice on hiking with chronic pain on your plate. Because I've had chronic pain for years, mostly around my collarbone, and I'm a little antsy about triggering a flare-up. If a lot of your pain while hiking is due to having a backpack, you might want to look into a lumbar pack. When I used smaller day packs without a decent lumbar belt, my shoulders and upper back would be screaming at me within a mile or two. Just something the way the straps pulled really aggravated my everything. If I'm just doing a couple hours where water, a rain cover, and a snack is all I really need, there's a lot of options these days for lumbar packs that make you look like an uber dork but are shockingly comfortable. I currently use a north face pack and it's great. No more lovely day pack neck pain or sweaty summer back. If you prefer water bladders, I've rented the osprey one through work a few times and it's also pretty dope.
