@Dave & Deb I know what you mean, there’s always something I wish I would have brought or something I wish I woulda left behind. I think how you plan on Backpacking Canada determines what you’ll need to bring. If you’ve got you’re own vehicle, there’s tons of room for storage. So bringing those ski pants or that extra parka would probably make sense. However if you’re just rockin one small bag and Greyhounding it, space is pretty limited. Thankfully travel gear is so much more futuristic these days, thin shells that can be good up to -20. Grandma always says “Dress in layers” – people that old are usually right. But yea, packing, no matter how prepared you think you are, downright sucks.

I think that I am going to try that pack whiz. No matter how many times we travel, we still never get it perfect. Maybe this will help. I think that backpacking Canada would be very difficult to pack for. Our climates are so varied. Packing in cool weather always messes me up. I always over pack.
It is awesome that you have made a list!
