Great article! You might mention that a horse can only safely carry a total (including rider, saddle, and gear) of 1/5 of it’s weight. We try to keep a bit more of the weight toward the horse’s front instead of putting the weight over the loins.

Good article on light packing? What kind of stove does she bring?
