One person who is hungry could eat it in one sitting, or two average people. If you are hiking it would be a nice big meal for one person at the end of the day.

Yes. Especially if you are a big eater. If not, pour some in a zip-lock bag and then reuse the Mountain House bag to cook the other portion.

Trust me...if you're working hard, and depending on your size, you shouldn't have a problem eating it all for one meal, We always plan from the start that it's a one meal deal and provide accordingly

I think you could attach 2 but I don't know that you would have room I walk

No. Might i suggest always having two on you. It has saved us several times camping.

1 person setup? Sure. Could probably do it 1 handed even, its dead simple ...1 person and a big dog? Might be overkill. Yet, if you're rained out for a day, you'd probably appreciate the extra real estate. . Btw the quality is worth more than the price.

I'm 6-4 and my sleeping bag fit into the bag. I would not put the sleeping pad into the bag. It can be straped on the outside. Remember this is a medium size bag. The interior will hold 2 shirts, 1 pants, 2 underwear and 2 socks. Food for 5 days ( depends on what you eat). Rain jacket, emergency tarp, first aid kit, hygiene kit both 6x4 inches. 1 person tent or hammock, rain fly, straps and rope. Alcohol stove, ultra light pot w lid. Side pockets hold water treatment, alcohol fuel, lighter, maps, snacks, spoon or spork, etc. Top storage has twice as much room as side pockets. Bottom has rain cover which comes with the pack. There are lots of places to tie down your sleeping pad, hiking poles, what ever. I bought mine to use on the Appalachian Trail. I have 30lbs of stuff which I hope to get down to 25lbs. I had a larger pack- 6000 cu in. but when you are hiking 544 miles weight is a factor. If you are car camping or just hiking to a camp site and not moving for a week go with a larger pack. You can bring more stuff. Some thru hikers have packs with less cu in to save weight. I am not in a hurry so if I get tired I will rest and enjoy the scenery. I did buy a compression bag for my sleeping bag. It was tight w/o compression bag. My sleeping bag came with just a stuff sack. It ddin't compress the sleeping bag so I went with a compression bag. Yours may be smaller or larger than my sleeping bag. Mine is a synthetic fill rated to 20 but I think it is only good to 30. That is from years of use at different temps. I may need a new bag. Even 30 degrees is to cold for me these days. Hope this helps. Happy trails, Dave

2 packs should be enough. If you want real full like then 3 packs. With Regards, Customer Service

It can take the weight, but you're going to want to plan on venting heat somehow - it's somewhat breathable, but both you and the one-year-old are likely to throw off a lot of heat on any significant hike. It'll be fine for a light-to-moderate hike in a cool climate, but too much for strenuous hiking or hot weather.

There are two straps on this case. One that you would put around your waist and is concealed in the back when not in use. The other is a shoulder strap. When hiking I use them both together, one around my waist and the other over my shoulder-certainly more stable that putting it on your belt. You can just use one of the straps alone if you want. Understand, its a pretty big case though. It holds a DSLR with a telephoto lens plus a front pocket and an inside pocket under the flap. It has both a zipper and a velcro clasp. I love this case and bought one for my husband also.

Don't see why not! I'm 5'10" and have several hundred miles section hiking AT without any problems. Would think any woman who wants to carry 5-7 day resources could handle the Teton. 40#-55# can be packed in the three internal spaces and lots of external attachment points also available. Might not be appropriate for "girl" still in teens. Watch the movie "Wild" and go for it! R/Alan

My personal oppinion would be : the bigger the blader is, the better it is! I drink a lot, and for exemple if you're hiking a entire summer day you might even want to bring an extra bottle!Also : you are not forced to fill ot entirely! You can put only 1.5L if you want (make sure you remove the extra air that's it!). As of the weight, I'm sure your grandson can handle a 7pounds extra charge :)I would recommand this product

i prefer only to have one bc i use it mostly for carrying my backpack and don't need two for that.

you need 2 on the back, I use a ratchet strap on the front but you could do four, one on back in my opinion would not be good

I have not used two but don't see why that would be a problem. The straps go under the bed so using one or two would make no difference.

if you are referring to 2 feet at one time - the answer is yes. if you are referring to 2 people at a time the answer is no.

I would recommend the same one I purchased, which is the one I wrote the I review on - 1.5-2.0 ponds by Canyon. I am 5.0, but weigh slightly more than you.

It depends on the size and amount of equipment you are taking with you, and the length of your trip. I imagine for a one or two night trip, you could take this and a second person could carry a day pack and you would be fine. It's the tent, sleeping bags and pads that will take a lot of space. The extra food for a second person doesn't take that much space, and you can share a stove.
