Hmmm, that’s an interesting approach to resupply – use the other hikers! You’d probably need a pretty heavy pocketknife, and it’s probably not LNT. But still, it would save a lot off food weight.

The challenge would be convincing the other hikers to bring plenty of Snickers bars along, and not eat them before you can “resupply”. You need something for dessert, after all!

Ah – are we talking here about ‘roast leg of hiker’?
What do you do with the ‘remains’?

Cheers

Well that was anticlimactic.

Every time I saw a request for a trip report I started to worry a bit then thought nah, these were all back from January.

There’s a scale for grading the severity of an epic on an outdoor trip from 1 to 10. 1 is being slightly late for dinner. A 10 means no member of the party ever returns and no evidence is found about what happened to them.

“When BPL members get bored…” Yes – it’s winter in the Northwest and I don’t like to get my ten little piggies wet ;-)
