    That's pretty sweet turn around time on all that gear. Now what about the, pics, or it dident happen.
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    That's what I was thinking.

    Great job on doing all that DIY gear building in a week.

    Nothing like trial by fire to see if your gear works as intended.

    Cheers
