Talus
1,800 – 3,000 m
Loose rock, no shade, weather that turns inside an hour. Everything earns its grams.
The talus is loose rock without shade or a clear line. Footing shifts under load, the sun comes straight down, and weather that was an hour away arrives in twenty minutes. Kit for this band earns every gram it carries: nothing padded that could be cut, nothing heavy where a lighter material does the same job as well.
