Just finished the section where the magazine contributors give input.  The topic is "What's in your pack?" and QJ's Jimbo happens to be a frequent magazine contributor. 

I love this topic and all the little details that go into canoe tripping.  Packing for tripping is a very personal thing and something that evolves over time.  I had always gone solo or with newbies until 2016 when I met up for 3 nights with another experienced solo (Pineknot from this board).  Our 6 man trip (Six Guys and a Dog) in Sept. 2019 opened my eyes to new ways of doing things.  Pineknot's container packing system, Portage Dog's tarp rigs, Wally13's fine tuned breaded walleye filets, MagicPaddlers "Go light or go home" packing style and also his technique for doing dishes.

Then we have Jimbo.  You can read the article by picking up the magazine.  I'll say this - he's one fine tuned tripper.  He knows what he needs and likes.  I know one thing, the smell of that kelly kettle wafting into the fire pit area from over yonder most mornings was very welcome.  Everyone else had hissing stoves going for coffee and Jimbo was burning twigs and pinecones for his. It created a nice ambiance.  :)

But Jimbo, I would like to turn you on to top quilts and under quilts world someday.  ;)
