Ugh - I just don't know. I am really tempted to rent just to make it easier on myself. I also kind of like the idea of hiking everything in with a big duffel so I can say I am strong like bull
But, I just got my new air mattress which is 8 pounds. Plus the tent at 7 pounds. Plus the clothes and sleeping bag and food.
Maybe if I walk around with it once a week from now until then, I'll be strong enough
