I don't know what animal I would be, but I've always aspired to be as good as my dog thinks I am.
+1 for the Gatewood Cape.
When going down hill your boot will stop and inertia will cause your foot to slide inside and, voila, you get a blister on the tip of your big toe. Lace your boots tighter before a downhill section....
Here, on the left coast, I would think it's a Gopher snake. Where you are, could it be a Bull snake?
I've done pretty much everything I have wanted to do. Unselfishly, I might add. If I haven't done something, i.e. climb Mt. Everest, etc., it's because I haven't wanted to. To quote Ralph Waldo...
Quaker oatmeal to go bar and coffee, then . . . more coffee.
+1 . . . 151 rum. Try a "Fuzzy Leprechuan" ( 1 1/2 oz. 151 Rum and 8 oz. Gatorade). It puts the high in hydrate.
Excellent attempt at something that is truly needed. Thanks.
I should have mentioned the suspected connection of cooking in aluminum pots to Altzheimer's Disease, but I . . .uh . . .forgot.
Yes, aluminum is a lighter metal, but to get the same strength and durability as titanium, one would have to have carry aluminum equipment that would weigh more, i.e. thicker and heavier. I carry...

Born in Lakewood, Ohio and raised in Rocky River. I left at 17 and, to tell the truth, I can't handle the winters anymore, but I'm still a Buckeye at heart. You can take the boy out of Ohio, but you...

Tell me if you know.
Don't you think that's a cute little riddle
Round on the end and "Hi" in the middle
You can find it on the map if you look high and...
Dude, you're over thinking this. Yes, your 7 mil. plastic will probably work, but you started this thread with Tyvek. What's your goal; is it to keep your tent floor from being punctured; your...
You can buy kite Tyvek at www.intothewind.com. Kite Tyvek is lighter than house wrap Tyvek, though not as durable.
+1 on Fantastic Foods hummus. At home I split the package into two zip lock bags. On the trail I mix in water and olive oil according to the directions and eat it with Pita bread out of the bag. I...
I have a Petzl Zipka. It has a bright light and is light in weight.
Wow! It sounds like you have a bad case of "burn out" by trying to live "the american dream" as others see it. When I was in High School a teacher once told me two things a person needs in life is...
Don't forget to include the Girl Scouts.

You're to be commended loyalty to your employer. However, in todays business culture that loyalty is a one-way street. There's a saying about one's place in a corporation . . . stick your fist in a...
I don't know about the bags, but I can recommend the people. I have an Arroyo 30 degree bag and when I was on a trip in the Sierras I felt the bag was not as warm as it was rated. When I got back...
I like pita bread and instant hummus. Fantistic World Foods and Casbah Natural Foods are good brands.
