I’m at work again today, so there hasn’t been any training for a while.  It’s still raining anyway; it has been for days.  I sure hope this weather system makes it’s way east and through Virginia before I get there on the 27th.  There’s a chance that Jeff and I will be essentially day-hiking for the first 2 days, so that would make it tolerable if it’s still raining.  (That’s SlackPacking if you need to know.)

Today’s equipment is my down quilt from Enlightened Equipment.  I have the 40 degree Enigma quilt in orange and charcoal (below).  The quilt is perfect for hammock sleeping and does fine on a sleeping pad too.  It weighs in at 14 oz.

You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself. – Alan Alda
