    I give up, time to try this ultralight nonsense...

    So I have officially done my first over night campout. While some of the problems I had hiking to my chosen site is due to my being outta shape and my asthma (pronounced MIasMA) I a positive that a lighter load will help tremendously. I'll post my load out and known or estimated weights at a later time and ask for help. I can go back to being all macho when I've lost a few pounds...

    They deleted that Medicine Man thread - it was the best thread ever. Something like "Cottage vendor what my corn flakes went to market and this proves fried chicken!"
