Last season I reduced gear to the point that it was not too much trouble to single portage most of the time. My first trip in April I got everything into one pack but it was really too much weight to carry safely. In May I managed the same but still a bit heavy and had to double on some difficult carries. For a week long trip in August I managed to get everything comfortably in a Granite Gear Solo pack (not a very large bag) and keep it light enough that I was able to single into Kahshapiwi via McNeice without undo strain. I take less and less shit and truth is I don't miss it.
