A single trekker weighs 20.81 oz (1.3 lbs). So that's an extra 2.6 lbs on the way up on your feet, and an extra 2.6 lbs in your pack on the way down.

I would say a pair of trekkers weighs between 1.5 and 2 lbs.

From Wild Snow.com"If you've done much backcountry skiing, the first difference you'll notice about using Trekkers is the weight. A conventional alpine ski setup, combined with the Trekker, can yank at your feet like a torture of the Inquisition. I calculated one rig, using my heavy alpine skis, at over fourteen pounds per foot!"
