Via this website, I've been following Andrew on his 6,875-mile hike. Looks like he'll finish this weekend. Wow.

Andrew Skurka writes in his blog:
During 3-season conditions my pack usually weighs 6 or 7 pounds (minus food and water), and during the deep winter I have pared it down to a mere 14!

Yeah, I saw that. Pretty amazing. My backpack alone weighs 3 pounds.
