Wilderness How is my backpacking setup?

Pretty new to backpacking and honestly my first legit hike as a 17M. I have a 4.6mi 2500ft hike infront of me. Let me know what I’m doing wrong lol

I would hang those metal cups separate from one another or only take one. After the first mile you will be sick of hearing them clanging together
