Honey, Give Me Some Hints for Christmas
Every Christmas and every birthday, my wife asks me for gift "hints." I tell her that it will probably be some kind of backpacking equipment.
Knowing I already own three of everything (literally), she cringes. You don't need any more gear, she complains at first, then gives in when equipment is just about the only stuff on the list.
I already know I want a titanium Esbit Wing Stove (see my earlier post).
With the holidays coming quickly, I figure others will be in the same situation. I want to solicit ideas from my readers so I can create the ultimate gift list for the lightweight backpacker.
Best tents, packs, jackets, headlamps, pads and even the small stuff–all prices ranges. I want your help making a list I can share with others. Please help. I know my wife will appreciate it.
Be safe. Be light. Be one with the pack.
