    Default UL Overkill?

    So, I've been thinking of lightening my pack weight a little bit more, so I've decided to ditch the titanium fork and just go with this instead...

    I fill the empty space in my pack with helium to reduce weight.

    I use hydrogen. The weight savings is worth the risk of combustion.

    Why carry anything at all. A past thru hiker I know just gets to camp and makes his own chop sticks each night from sticks he finds.
