Lightweight, Lightweight, Lightweight.

You find the fanatics around here, myself included, count pounds ounces before tripping. If you get in this practice.... you'll be glad you did.

Review all your gear... and then look at all your non essentials. Leave them behind...except for that one good...lightweight book, first aid book too and perhaps a deck of cards. Now look at your gear again and look at all the non essential gear... and leave it behind... except the two books and playing cards.

Lightweight, Lightweight, Lightweight.

db... if you're reading where did you find that comment about the sleeping bags?

Cool down; I'm guessing Marlin was thinking of when you've gotten over heated and sweaty from some hard work and then stopped. Your body stops putting out the heat and the sweaty layers keep transfering heat out. Just what sweating was trying to do when it started.

Aim to stay comfortably cool by taking the time to adjust your layers as you go. IMHO

Marlin can correct me if I'm wrong about the "cool down".

He's probably studying db's link too, right Marlin? Wink
