Traveling light

Tomorrow I am heading down to the Bosque del Apache national wildlife refuge in New Mexico for some photography.  I went last year and got some good shots, but I am hoping that I can do better with some experience.

I just finished packing and I think a casual observer would assume that I am heading on a self sufficient expedition to the Antarctic.  It is a very, very casual trip so I can get by with some socks, underwear, t-shirts, extra pants, and some warmth for the pre-sunrise shooting.  Somehow, I end up with a large suitcase (42 pounds), a camera backpack (20+ pounds) and a day pack (10+ pounds).

The good news is that if I lose interest in photography while on the trip, I can stop and open a well-stocked camera store.
