[quote author=mntrehgr link=1173456405/0#0 date=1173456404]Also, a double 30L set up is around two pounds heavier than one 60L...is it worth the weight? Or don't you notice a weight difference since the center of gravity of the 2X30L is closer to your back compared to the 60L?


That's an unusual set-up.




Actually it isn't unusual at all. One outfitter even sells the setup.

That's similar to what I use and it is quite comfortable to carry (until you pack those barrels full ;)). The two 30L barrels do keep the weight  closer to your center of balance. That's another advantage to the 2 30L barrels I forgot as your food disappears you can balance the load between the two barrels.
