    First overnighter, what'll I forget?

    I take two litres, that's normally enough to make a few brews and warm up boil in the bag food with a little left over for washing and a few sips in the night. Take what you think you need - after your overnighter you'll be able to look back and see what you wish you had taken and also what you...
