There are most of your options for chemical treatments all in one place. I...
Thanks for the link. I did a little digging and came up with some more stuff on that site. Check it out. I might just give 301 a try.

I carry a home-made g4. I did use the patterns and definitely recomend them. For what they cost, they are definitely worth it. I'm not exactly a pro, but it was tons easier than building my...
Thanks, I've got finals this week and needed a good laugh.

Yeah, what chris said. The pack may add some strain to your shoulders at first if it's frameless, but even that'll dissapear soon enough. I carry a backpack with my laptop and several nice sized...
Lol, you might be onto something. Supposedly a 3 meter weather balloon filled with helium can lift about 30 lbs. You'd be fine until the wind picks up or it gets cold.
fiddlehead, nice save. ;)
Don't remember where I heard it, but:

Cool, someone from St. Louis! Born in Cape myself and going to be spending half my summer in Columbia. Anyway, I have to ask you to seriously reconsider if you are thinking about modding a down...
Wasn't on the list, but I use/love the mini. Only 8oz too! Any Katadyns are great though.

I think I'm going to leave the mud cups for hauptman, but he does have a point. This is the reason I posted it here and not in the ultralight section. Even though within the next few weeks I should...
I imagine I'm not the first person to have this idea, but I did a quick search and didn't find anything else. The dollar store by my house sells flexible plastic cutting boards (sheets?) 3 for a...
Could someone please post a pic of the CF stays in the mariposa? I made a semi-custom G4. Glen said he'd sell me just the mariposa stays, but I'm trying to figure out how to incorperate them into...
For me it was SOBO'ing section 4 (Hogpen to Unicoi) about a month ago, with a BW of about 35lbs (Always be prepared right?). Neither my friend nor myself had a waterfilter at the time, so we had to...
Oh geez, I was so happy to put my new mathymatikal skills to the test, that I forgot to actually think about the problem. Yeah, you're right. Could easily be 300F in the tank, but once it leaves,...
Geez Rock, as helpful as you have been for me learning about hiking it hurts to correct you, but at 3000 psi, water should boil about 700 deg F.
It works off the same principle as water boiling...
This would really suck for sobo's. Who wants to be stuck in AL? :p
Sorry Alabamians, couldn't help it.
I do like the idea of a 3k mi trail, whether it's all called the AT or not, going all...
Not to hijack this guy's thread, but how exactly?
