John Muir Trail, a canyon, or a custom route
Pack the trip. Not a generic list.
Pack Planner builds a checklist from the nights, the forecast, the water, and the gear you already own. It weighs the pack, splits shared items, and writes a food plan. Categories and the weight summary are free. $15 unlocks that trip. $29 unlocks every trip and a saved gear closet.

- Add items with a weight in ounces or grams, and mark what you wear.
- Paste a LighterPack-style CSV. Quantity and unit are read from the columns.
- If you already own the tent, the suggestion steps aside and your weight is used.
- Flags call out a bag that is too cold, a base weight over the style target, and a required canister.
- After you pay: the item list, the shopping list, the chart, print, and CSV.
