How many months are you going away for ?

Here's our lot for a 2 week+ trip across Ausi last year, 2 up

Included camping gear :blink: including mats and sleeping bags for 2 people, plus cooking gear, only carried about 3 or 4 days worth of food though. The red bag on the top was empty, just needed to stick it somewhere
