Our gear lists require the essentials +/- some creature comforts (granted we plan on multiple days or some of this wouldn't be needed): essentials, sleeping system, clothes, cooking, water, misc, optional gear and the pack/panniers to bring it all with us.
Essentials (2lbs ~1l of space): basic things you should bring to your back country expedition - compass, whistle, fire system (matches & lighter), shelter system, first-aid, multi-tool, water system, calories, duct tape, cordage, zip-ties, headlamp, lip/sunscreen
Sleeping System (5.3 lbs ~3.5l of space): depends on the planned weather and extremes for the time of year, since we are looking at 30 degree low and clouds we should expect snow. Light weight ground pad 19oz, 35 degree synthetic bag 34oz, bivsack 32oz
Clothes (3.8 lbs ~2l of space): 2pr wool socks, 1pr mid-weight long underwear, precip rain jacket, down jacket, windproof hobo mitts, wool hat, nylon pants
Cooking (2lbs ~2l of space): jetboil java maker, 1 nalgene bottle, 1 lexan spoon (carve chopstix for any other uts req'd)
Water (10.75lbs ~4l of space): 100oz bladder, 1 liter bottle in the bike cage
Misc (2lbs, ~1l of space): toilet paper, tooth brush/paste, camera, music
Pack (4lbs): Deuter Guide 45+ backpack
Bike Repair (?): spare tube, patch kit, allen wrenches, pump, tire irons
In the end my pack weighs 33.8 pounds before I put in the food
