I use the Jones 32l backpack, and learned that both the Ortovox and BD are lighter, even though few hundreds grams.
I would guess the heaviest stuff is the avalanche set, so probably one could search for a lighter shovel?
Thermos bottle/liquids in general are also heavy but needed.
Is there any recommendation/lesson learned to reduce backpack weight? At the end I bring one vest (ME Switch no hood), one hard/softshell (like Arct Gamma LT) and something even lighter for the way up like the BD Alpine Start hoody. Obviously as the temperature goes up, also the midlayer (norrona alpha) and the jacket (Arct Proton) end in the backpack, and I wear either the vest or the BD Alpine over the first layer.
At some point i guess there isn't much you could do to reduce the weight, so i was wondering if you have any smart suggestion.
