To lighten the load, I could see us ditching the oilcloth, cooking pot, and the fire pot. The caltrops could probably go too, for that matter. Buchek will want to carry the whip himself, will wear his explorer's outfit, and will feel much more comfortable if the healing and antivenom potions are distributed among the party members, rather than being left on the mules. If possible he'll want to stick his mace in one of the mule's packs, just to lighten his own load a bit.

Do we have characters who are proficient with armorsmithing and weaponsmithing tools? I hope so, but if not, we can leave those behind as well. Would things like spare bowstrings be included in the weaponsmithing tool kit? If not, it might be a good idea to pack a couple of replacement bow strings, in case ours break or get wet.

What do you guys think about the goat? Too much trouble? I'm kind of leaning that direction myself.
