Good starter pack - Campsaver Intro to Backpacking Kit

Got a Kayak last summer, so this summer the friends want to Camp and Kayak.

Instead of putting in time to research individual components and spending probably more than I should, I took the convenient route and snagged this kit.

What I like about it is that it gives you what you need and none of what you dont. Simple and light.

Volt 75 Pack makes carrying my clothes and other gear a breeze. Great size that allows me to fit my stuff without giving me the option of overpacking.

Sleeping bag is nice enough, i run hot so i leave it open alot. The sleeping pad is great though, keeps me from waking up grumpy.

Water filter and patch kit are excellent to have if you need them but hopefully i won't need them.

Very slick cookset that doesn't take up space and enables hot meals - also keeps me from being grumpy.

Overall very happy I went with this kit.
