  1. For the Fish River Canyon and Drakensberg trip I have my cooking setup settled and there are some luxury items.

    - I am taking a Fozzils Snapbowl for when I need a bowl. Doubles as a cutting board. (fozzils.com/product-page/snapf). It fits nicely into the back stretch pocket of the backpack.

    - A long handle spork.

    - A Victorinox Soldier's knife. It has all the necessary utilities for emergencies. The made blade is serrated and sharp. I have used it in the past to even cut open tins. (amazon.es/-/en/Victorinox-Schw)

    - A spreading knife, because it works better than the pocket knife's big blade. It is my one luxury item.

    - All the cutlery items go into a small Hilltop tent stake bag. I purposely bought the one with the meat print. (hilltoppacks.com/products/tent)

    - MSR Pocket Rocket DLX. Slightly heavier than some other compact stoves, but it burns more efficiently, has a regulator and a piezo igniter. (cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/produ).

    - Lightload Towel as a dish cloth. It is super lightweight, recycable and lasts for many days. (litesmith.com/lightload-towels/).

    - MSR Titan 900ml kettle. (cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/produ)

    - MSR Titan Double Wall mug 375 ml. It fits inside the kettle. (cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/produ).

    - All the cookware goes inside a Hilltop stuff sack, including one gas canister. (hilltoppacks.com/products/stuf)

    - I have one large food bag from Hilltop (hilltoppacks.com/collections/f) as well as 2nd snack bag. At this point I might take another Hilltop bag instead of the Sea to Summit drybag for the latter purpose.

    - As these hikes are in Southern Africa, a common practice is to eat rusks with morning coffee / tea. I keep these in a plastic container to prevent them from becoming crumbs.

    - My second luxury item is a Platypus 800ml wine bag, because we like to sip some red wine in the evening. When it is empty it rolls up really small (cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/produ).

    This whole setup is < 900g.

    I did not include a emergency matches or a lighter in this list as that will go into the emergency and first aid bag.
