Depends on if you’re driving in or hiking in to your campsite. If you’re car camping like I do most of the time I have an air mattress and take my blankets and it fits in my 3p 3 season north face tent. I’m goin on my first backpacking trip and my buddy is going to lend me his old heavier gear. He said once I know for sure I’m going to like it I can get light gear.
