[at-l] re: superlight baby!



way to go will!

i wouldn't have believed it myself until i forced myself to try it, but you
really can hike for a few days under 20lbs!  the secret is to buy a small
pack and force yourself to make those hard choices.  and believe me, the
difference between 20lbs and 30lbs is amazing, for me it could mean 5 miles
more a day.  or 5 miles of sightseeing, or time to enjoy the really
beautiful parts, or just a nice lie in!

(btw - if you're planning on being at trail days this year, send some
climbing gear to damascus.  there's a rock about 20 mins from damascus, we
could get a little top roping in.)

happy new year, all
