What to bring and not to bring!
by ulhiker on Wed Jul 16, 2008 10:39 am
Backpackinglight.com has a series of articles regarding what to bring and not to bring from a UL standpoint. I thought I'd post them here for your consideration.

http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/essentials_miller.html?id=SkWBtYGi:66.158.183.17
http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/essentials_bailey.html?id=SkWBtYGi:66.158.183.17
These articles give you different perspectives of what might be considered essentials for an ultralight overnight backpacking trip. Maybe they will be useful for those looking to lighten their load a little. Certainly not trying to tell everyone to go UL.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than the ones that you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain
