Camping trip 2013. Clothes are in the hardbags. In the bags on the luggage rack were the following. 1 4 man dome tent, a cooler with beer, water, and Mt. Dew, 2 folding chairs, 3 small bottles of propane and 2 stoves to screw on top of them, 2 flashlights, 1 lantern. a queen size self inflating air mattress, 2-4 inch fans, and a couple of bottles to pass around the campfire at night. Oh yeah forgot 2 mess kits, food, 2 cameras, a hatchet and a few other odds and ends.

Seems like some of you over think (and overload) the whole deal. Damn if I want a top heavy barge in the country we ride up here. Here's 4 of us loaded for a week long run in Idaho,Montana,Oregon and Washington.
