Maryland Hike Gear List

[Hooch]

Alrighty, so Dancer and I are coming down to the wire before our Maryland Section hike next week. Today is my last day off before we leave for Harpers Ferry after I get off work Monday night. I thought I'd post my gear list here to see if anyone has any thoughts, ideas, etc for it. I alwas like looking at folks' gear lists and playing around with it to help make refinements.

I really don't care about numbers, I just know it feels comfortable on my back and that's all that matters. Y'all have fun with the gear list. Dancer and I will post a trip report and pics after we get back. We've been looking forward to this hike for a while now and can't wait! See some of y'all at the MAHHA Hang next Friday!

Thanks, but no need for an extra light, have a small keychain light on my hammock ridgeline. The knife I have now is sharp as a razor and **** near bombproof.
