11 to 14 kg depending upon the bands used. I always carry survival kit regardless of the weather or how close a summit is to civilisation. Water weighs a lot for what it is, but it is absolutely essential.

I run on about 17-20kg… includes the kettle!

In reply to all:
About 7 Kg. But will change to a smaller SLAB and less wire less tools, and use only one tuner so probably the scale will show 5 Kg, without the thermos with coffe and cheese sandwiches.

In reply to 2E0KPO:
eeeeeh - for what do you need a kettle?!
to prepare the magic potion of course!
to stay on topic: The weight here is varying as well. From 8-10kg for quick and easy activations up to 15-20kg, always depending on the tour.
In reply to DL4MFM:
14-17kg depending if PSK gear is with and summer or winter.

About 10kg here (with QRP HF station and small 2m FM). But I am still working on some optimization.
