It's a really interesting question, Spanner.

>...what would a real climber take as a good lightweight setup if going on a remote walk...?

I'd take your bit of cord (although I'd seriously consider 30-35mts because trees and other anchors are never in convenient positions). I'd take a single small s'gate 'biner - something like a Petzl Attache - and I'd wear a nylon webbing belt with a climb-spec buckle bar-tacked in place (Cactus NZ do something like this). That way I'd have a hand line when needed and also all the gear for vert abseiling at an uncomfortable pinch.
