I am more or less new to the UL thing. I think its pretty awesome. It makes perfect since. Light and Happy. I have actually been reading these forums for months, gaining info and knowledge. I apperciate the vast knowledge all of you have to offer. I done my research and spent alittle money that I should have saved. I have made some of my own gear, but i think I got my gear list down to what I need. Please critique if willing. I can take it. This is my May to Sept Colorado gear list. Ive had some cold nights with this gear list.
