Whelp, since we made it from Canada to Mexico without dying I guess it's time to go through our Continental Divide Trail gear list as promised. Note that just because this CDT gear list worked for us, doesn't mean it will work for everyone! My gear was quite a bit heavier due to the challenges of thru hiking with a dog and just going slower in general compared to most other thru hikers.

If you want the typed version of our gear list, you can find that here: https://themostimportantstep.com/inde...
