Oh, for pete's sake! Going ultralight does not mean going unprepared! I'd have 40+ pounds of stuff if I was ice-road touring in the Arctic Circle! A -40º sleeping bag, a parka, down pants, snowboots, expedition mitts, ski goggles, a fatbike, days of food and plenty of water, a full size snow boiling pot... That is ultralight for the conditions, if you ask me.
Nevermind... I'm talking to a brick wall... May I forever be associated with a scantily-clad nomad desperately shivering on the side of the road next to an unfixable flat tire.

Does the kidding part need a translation?
