drying a bit :
only thing that was easy to burn with all that rain was dead heather.
so as i said in another post rain 24/24 7/7 for 6 days, water everywhere !!!
reliable clothing is what kept us going in that condition :
BPL wool hoodie and icebreaker beast boxer, a micro fleece and a BPL cocoon vest,
rab drillium vest , ID event gaiters and reed pants were great,
my only problem is with 1,76m 76kg my L rab drillium is too slim cut for me to wear with anything more than a micro fleece and a sleeveless vest so i am searching for another event vest for Greenland this summer so i could bring my cocoon hoodie.
boots and xsocks were full of water from day 1.. but i appart from feet skin, no problem from that after 6 days
my mirage down bag stayed dry in my myog bug bivy under a kifaru paratipi so was more than adequate for nights all above 0°C.
no photos of them, as i only had my olympus 420 and a wide angle, but we never saw that many deers, et least 200 in 6 days.
