    Thermals questions

    How long does it take for the thermals to switch after the morning sun starts to hit an east facing slope? I assume it will be considerably later in the morning for a west facing slope. How much?

    Backpack size/Days of food/gear

    Yes my current pack is an icon pro 5200. I did notice that the exo 5500 is only 4 oz different than the exo 3500. Sometimes i dont use bags or sacks for my sleeping bag and tent. I put my tent in the long side pocket and put my sleeping bag in the main compartment. This saves a little weight.
