Let me get with C+1 as to what we will be cooking for the group. If I can find a sherpa in time, that opens up what we can bring. I do have a good amount of dried goods to try to keep it on the light Side. The DO well kill all weight reduction efforts. LOL

I saw quite a few at Play it again sporting goods resale. (Cypress Gardens, Winter haven for one location)

Just found this on Craigslist, looks like a good potential sherpa cart....

I think harbor freight has those big tire (air) wagons for a fairly cheap price. After the sherpa, you could use it in the garden. If you are handy, make a wood frame and buy the wheel barrow tires at harbor freight and make your own wagon or three wheeled sherpa! Usually got a coupon for those things for 3.99 each.

That stroller is just like the one I got for $35 tho a bit newer looking.

Someone else said used are ab $50.

Ad says OBO...try $45 and go to $50, if necessary

I got mine, a double-wide Schwin for $20 on Craig's list. The fabric is dirty and has a tear in the middle, which is fine for me but I wouldn't want to haul any babies around in it. I'm thinking about cutting all the fabric off, bolting a plywood 'floor' on it and loading it with bins and gear bags.

Some thoughts to keep in mind if picking up a stroller. I carry a tube patch kit and a spare inner tube. All of the wheels on mine are the same size so only one size tube to carry. Some have different size wheels on the front requiring you to carry 2 tubes. Some have a small wheel in the front that is set up like a grocery cart wheel or caster wheel. That may be problematic on the trail. Strap a small bicycle air pump on the frame some where.

Doing a little modification work on the new Sherpa cart. Stripped all the fabric off. Putting a 'floor' in to carry bins instead of bags. Gumbo got the idea from the beginning of Wildergimp's 2nd video. Pics to follow.
