Dispatches from the Beartooth Plateau: Food Planing

Wow, that is lot of plastic. I’m hope you carried it back.

I have stopped packing in that way after I weigh the plastic after a long trip. I guess you have 1-2kg of plastic. That might be ten percent of the total weight!

I prefer to pack I larger sealed bags, and measure the the correct amount each time. We carry 650g per person and day.

No updates along the way?

Ahem.. Had some trout. Ate a bunch of snacks early on. What did you learn?

Harry, you could burn all of that plastic trash otherwise its ending up in a landfill somewhere or getting shipped to china for recycling.

Some people are very sensitive to burning trash Justin. And the plastic theoretically could be recycled.
