I am always looking for contributions. So, if you have any new ideas, gear recommendations, trip reports, tips you use on the trail, etc. let me know!

If you have any questions or comments, or would like to contribute to the page, please send me e-mail. You can read A Beginner's Guide to HTML to learn how to "mark up" a document.


I did a little clean up on the links to other pages. I thought it was getting a bit long. Everything should still be there. Let me know if I dropped something.
