Not another how much does your gear weigh quesion. Instead a little more broad. What makes up your base weight?
When I think of "Base Weight," I include pack, shelter and sleeping gear, stove and cooking gear, and any other gear that I always carry. But not clothes (as that varies per season/conditions), food or water.
Certainly there is a "standard" (even if unofficial) of what this should include.
