Is there any kind of towel out there that absorbs more than a MSR PackTowl but yet is more durable than a LightLoad? Thanks.

Yes, I said it.
Jul 9, 2009 at 12:04 pm #1512950You'll be saying "Wow!" everytime.

Cheers

Jul 11, 2009 at 7:12 am #1513251Are these the same towels that have that weird, prickly feeling? Do they end up smelling like a PackTowl after a few days use?
Jul 11, 2009 at 10:50 am #1513267The ones you might get at an auto store will be rougher. The ones you buy for dusting (are much finer) will have a little bit of prickly to them, but I find that I don't mind much.
