I prefer to go for longer walks these days and camp out a bit. For a weeks walk I have a base weight of around 8kg, I'll carry 4 kg food, and at some stage I always seem to need to carry 4 litres of water. I'd rather carry 16 kg with a h-frame than 15 kg with the Exos, or 14.5 kg with a superduper ultralight.
Shorter walks, well that's different.
