Finding the right gear to balance weight, durability and price seems to be nearly impossible... I'm fortunate enough to be able to have a blog where some people trust me enough to test their products... and for that I'm ever grateful!
My current gear list, which I'm quite pleased with is (top must have items):
Gregory Zulu 55
Big Agnes Fly Creek UL 3 (me, wife, soon-to-be child)
Grand Trunk Nano 7 hammock (if we don't take the tent)
Kelty Noah's Tarp 9
Big Agnes Buell 30 sleeping bag
Klymit Static V Lite Insulated
Sawyer Squeeze Filter system
JetBoil MiniMo OR MSR Pocket Rocket
Leki Cristallo trekking poles
Obviously footwear and clothing change based on the time of year...
I would love to hear your top items! Not to play the comparison game, but simply to see how others do it!
