Yeah, winter is definitely not cheap. You don't need 40 lbs of gear in the winter, let alone the summer.

But I’m saying that cheap sleeping bags, pads, clothing, tent, etc… all weigh like 2x more than pricy versions

Oh yeah, for sure. That sounds more like backpacking to me, which is definitely way more expensive. When I say hiking is cheap, I mean a summer/fall day hike.
