    Been lurkin' . . .

    Time to get registered and make a post. Have been a ground-dweller but thinking about trying the "hanging way" and this looks like the place to learn and connect. I really value a lighter pack, so I'm looking for advice on lightweight solutions and systems. I know there are a lot of threads that I need to read and digest, so I have my homework ahead of me.

    Welcome, Ultor!

    Yes, this is very much the place to do your homework. I've learned so much here in transition to ultra-light.

    Thanks for the welcome

    Appreciate the good wishes. Now I have many questions, but I'll have to go to the right places to ask them.
