Overnight
Only that a short trip would not really require any backup water treatment plan. Three days probably as well. I think your list could do a thru-hike. It's well thought out and has lots of ni...

eBay is Your Friend
I have a few of the older made-in-finland Silva compasses, and they are superior to the newer ones - and the US-made Bruntons - in every way. Even better, a starter model new-old-stock with packag...

Mariposa Is Somewhere In-Between

Grill for Tri-Ti
I've never tried it, but there is the Qi Wiz Zia Grill. The smaller sized one likely fits on a Tri-Ti. Zia Grills can be found at Qiwiz.net I believe on Trail Designs pictures page, they h...
