I suppose that I must join in the committment with Mikey and post that the last week of May we are backpacking Badlands National Park, or at least a part of it. No trails, so it's us, a topo, and a compass to find our way around. there is also no potable water, so we will have to pack in all our water. Since they recommend that we have at least 1 gal/person/day and each gallon weighs 8 pounds, 4 days is about our max. That's 32 pounds of water per person and 30 pounds of space left for food and gear.
Speaking of gear, Mikey is buying some new gear and I'm sure I will be posting advice that will be coinciding with what he is looking for. TO learn what Mikey buys, you'll have to check his blog and mine own.
Until the next Badlands Update
