Your packing list doesn’t look really long, but it looks like a lot in the pictures of your loaded bike. Does it handle ok? Are you able to get to the levers ok, and have enough clearance to shift?
Holy hell that is a loaded bike what temperatures are you expecting?
This is way to much gear, it looks like your are moving instead of bikepacking..
