My Locale Portland, OR
About Me Newer to backpacking. I've gotten my pack weight down from 35+ down to 11 lbs this year through smart purchases and MYOG projects. My goals for this year are building my backpacking skill set and getting out on the trail, and getting some winter gear together so I don't spend so much time inside this coming winter.
