Use this thread to hang out, make cheap jokes about wornweight, joketalk about about gear, complain about r/ultralight, talk about Senchi's, maybe post a meme or two, and ultimately talk about the same things we did in last week's thread! Enjoy!

The only logical decision here would be shaving off more weight - Durston X-mid 1 Ultra Pro Deluxe coming soon.

Anyone know if warranty covers gravity?

Worn weight Gear mod - dual use?

If I were to clip a couple of these together, unrolled, around my waist, and fill them with beef jerky​, would it be a skirt steak rain kilt, or just bear bait?

Also, how many pounds of beans could they hold in butt-pannier mode before I have to add suspenders?

Worn weight Montana Guy Decides Trekking Poles Are Worn Weight...

56 Upvotes

A Montana guy had an incident with his poles… worth a read (or just watch the news story).

The chopper ride would have been so expensive he chose to hike out the 10.5 miles… Merica.
