Title: Re: Reserving a site with your pack Post by Preacher on Sep 28th, 2010 at 8:39pm
Wow, I've come across lost items. Never a whole pack. The most I ever found was a bundle of 4 sleeping pads and this was in Q at the NE corner of Batchewan Bay. They were high on the rocks. No path or trail around. No footprints at the landing except for a raccoon. One of the pads had been chewed on by some varmint. The only reason for them being there I could fathom was that they had been blown there by wind & wave.
I've a bunch of pegs and guy lines that I've found on site. Oh, I'm reminded of some gear left in APP that was appeared to be the result of a bad experience. Not on a camping site. Pots & pans, toiletries & a sleeping bag all out in the rain in November. A whole pack? Wow. Maybe I have OCD, but I can't leave site or a portage without one last once-over to make sure I have everything. Again on the overall topic, it seems prudent to take 5 minutes to set up a shelter before going fishing. Site shopping is fromage, I don't know of any experienced trippers that do it this way if at all. |
