Pack lighter. Plan smarter.

GearGopher is a free backpacking gear planner. Catalog your equipment in a personal gear garage, build a pack list for every trip, and watch your base, worn, and consumable weight add up as you go. Then have the list itself looked over for what is missing or doubled up.

• Gear garage — Keep every piece of kit with its weight and category in one place.
• Trip lists — Pull gear into a list for each trip and see the weight breakdown instantly.
• Pack review — A second opinion on a trip list: likely gaps for the trip you described, gear you have doubled up, and quantities that look off.
• Share & publish — Keep lists private, share by secret link, or publish them as sample trips.

No account needed to start — build a list right now, then sign up any time to keep it and access it from anywhere.

The pack review is new: what it flags comes from rules checked against a gear catalog we curate by hand, not an AI guessing at your list. A real person still checks each list before suggestions turn on, so there is sometimes a wait.

Your gear list stays yours: free to import, free to export back to CSV, and printable for the trail — no paid tier, nothing held hostage.
