Ryan, thanks for your encouragement. This Scouter carries a lighter load too.

You've made SUL a serious pursuit. You've got some very creative ideas. I'd love for our guys to get that excited about backpacking. Other than our Philmont crew, we have 40+ novice backpackers.

There's several pages of guidance for parents that go with all of this. I just want to help demonstrate that lightweight is more fun, safer for bodies, and a whole lot less expensive.
