　　I’ve spent decades shaving weight — grams off a bike build, scrutinizing pack weight before a climb. Weight kills performance. Every. Single.

　　As I hiked through the cool fall air, surrounded by the golden, changing leaves, I barely registered the temperature. The crisp autumn air, which had dipped into the 30s, was no match for my La Sportiva Lumina 200 Down Jacket.
