On my last trip we had a guy who packed really HEAVY.
I'd have sworn that refridgerator was somewhere in one of his packs.......

Some friends of mine were hiking Mt Ranier in Washington state and had a fun time with the "new guy". Every meal the experienced guys always offered the "new guy" the food from their packs. He thought "You know these are really great friends, I sure am glad they invited me along, they share all their food, I sure am glad they are so generous!"
On the 6th day he caught on to the game when he realized his pack never got any lighter. Everyday his "buddies" lightened their load during each meal, while his remained the same......................
