Post Trip Lessons Learned:
- Hill country scree is Tina's bain. She twisted her ankle.
- It got WAY colder than predicted. 13 degrees! My Timmermade quilt rocks!
- I really dislike the cheap quality of the Toaks 1000ml pot and pan
- Fuel canisters don't work well in the cold
- I really like the Seek Outside Flight 2 pack
Post Trip Weight Savings ideas:
- Not much. This wasn't UL. This was targeted for the Scouts
Items that did not get used on this trip:
- Rain jacket
- First Aid Kit
- 1 pair of gloves
- Recharging kit
- Extra socks
- Pot scrubber
- Gore tex rain mittens
- Compasses and map (though this was brought for a Scout class that was not taught)
- WRFA kit (though bringing this is a BSA back country requirement.)
