[pct-l] An Introduction and Invitation

[randy_forsland@hotmail.com (Randy Forsland)]

I realized that as soon as I pressed "send"...but I still think that a trip
from Campo to Mid Oregon would be very doable for me this year..or..at least
to the Oregon border.....

I am not going to go overboard in "planning" this trip...will have a few
packages dropped along the way...but would rather that this be more of a
freelance "walk_about" sort of adventure...

Don't know exactly where it will end..but it will start at Campo....

And I won't be bringing any MREs (meals rarely edible) or BDUs with
me....left those in Nam...(although they were called C rations then)

Randy

Pack weight before liquids and food so far...

18 lbs..

want to trim that to an even 15 before  I start..
