    Very nice Shugman.

    You should make friends with a fireman. We are available during the week days also.

    Ursack

    I see you've switched to the Ursack from bear hanging. Those things last forever -- I'm still using the same one I carried on our hikes together. The ziplock liners don't seem to hold up well though, I've had to replace those every dozen or so nights out.

    I still carry my food in them here in Arizona. Not many bears down here, though there are a few in the mountains. Use it mostly to protect the food against rodents. Here's what a varmint did to my smartwool shirt a few weeks ago in the Superstition Mtns:



    I think it was going for the salt from my sweat, and maybe for nesting material.

    Good to see ya back on the Norwegian Riviera!

    Excellent video as usual. I wish I could have made it. Sure does look different up there in the winter. Good choice on staying at site 12. Site 13 would have been a bit more work getting to with the pulk. If I remember right there's a narrow little bridge you have to cross. Probably have to find another way to it.
