I'm not sure if this is the standard way to load it, but it worked having my tarp in the front mesh pocket.
Oh yeah I also had my 4 pound DSLR camera in the front mesh pocket. I normally carry it on my hip, but the battery went dead so I tossed it into the pack.
I did not weigh this load because I don't trust my scale. My base pack weight is under 15 pounds, that's about all I know for sure. I'll never go back to hauling around my REI pack that is one size too big. The size Small Gorilla is all I need. My single heaviest item is my camera. What a shame that the battery went dead and left me carrying 4 pounds of DEAD weight.
