How much weight would you carry at max? From what I have read on hiking, you should never carry more than one third of your bodyweight. For me that would be 56 Lbs. Now, I can man handle 50 Lbs. all day long as far as picking up things and moving them around. But that seems like a lot of weight for something on your back almost all of the time. What do you guys think? What would be the best weight to shoot for? I know the Anarchists Guide to Travel says 30 Lbs. I feel like this is the kind of thing i need to get some input on.
