Gear

Trips like these "require" new gear. Haha. Daddy would have loved to go with me today to get all this stuff.

MSR Whisperlite Internationale





















The NorthFace Mica 12















Those are the highlights.

Pan, pot, spatula, spoon, salt/pepper shaker, firstaid kit, fuel bottle, trowel (What's that for, Will??), fuel bottle.

Waiting on two more guidebooks; gonna go back to EMS to pick up extra stakes, more salt/pepper shakers for curry, oregano, garlic salt; gotta flush out my itinerary (maybe laminate it); initial test pack felt pretty light; getting really really excited.

  2. Have to say that I loved it myself. Although it's frustrating that there is so much cool stuff (colored tent pegs!) and so little room and the weight issue!
