| Great home-made light weight gear! To gain more knowledge on some gear that A.T. thru hikers use on their 2170+ miles, here's a couple of great links. Already many have left Springer, GA on their trek to Katahdin. Easy step by step details on how to make one version of a light weight aluminium can stove: http://www.pcthiker.com/pages/gear/p...instruct.shtml A hiking engineer who creates his own gear, lists home-made alcohol stoves (and instructs how to use it correctly in sub freezing temperatures), stands, windscreens, much more and interesting links for light weight/ultralight backpacking: http://www.datasync.com/~wksmith/ |
