BackpackingLight Links
Now that I have gotten
gmane.org to
subscribe the backpackingLight list,
I can actually find the time to look at it once in a while.
Here, I've collected links to some of the newer
developments since I've been out of touch with the
lightweight backpacking community.
-
Last year, I bought a G4 backpack from Glen van Peski
http://www.gvpgear.com/
I love it. It weighs about 12 ounces.
- http://www.golite.com builds gear based in part
on designs pioneered by Ray Jardine
- I made three pepsi-can stoves last year, and still
use the one I have left (I gave away the other two).
If I don't make myself some more, I'm thinking of getting
a Brasslite stove. http://www.brasslite.com/ $55.
- Another new company: ULA -- Ultralight Adventure
Equipment, Logan, Utah http://www.ula-equipment.com/
- An amazing work of comparison ... Biker Dave's guide to
Ultralight tents, tarps, tarptents, (no tenttarps?), hammocks,
bivy sacks, sleeping bags, and backpacks.

An amazing work.
