Olive green Lands End Goretex jacket (stuffs into its own chest pocket) $6, Sky Blue Columbia Goretex ball cap $1.50, Black Forrester's Goretex Golf Pants (zippered) $4. Not very color coordinated...

Nice cave, not as "wild" as the others I have visited. Spare batteries mean more than a fancy light. Cave On!

Thanks Garlic! I found those exact patches at that price 30 minutes ago in Wally World. They don't include black, so I'm holding off. I'm wondering if a dab of black silicone would work well?

Previous owner burned a 2.5mm hole in the upper chest. The hole behind it in the liner is about 5 mm. I can sew this interior hole closed, but need a nylon remedy for the outer hole.

I'm looking...

Nope, down sweater. I did find a really nice Patagonia micropuff vest last week at the thrifty.

That fancy outdoor boutique where all the beautiful folk hang out....REI. :D If the thrift store ever finds out I was in there.....they'll lock me out for life!

Gonna have to trade it/sell it, way too big since I lost 36-ish pounds. A medium would do nicely.

Cool! Thanks for the ideas. Living in the sweltering south, I rarely get to the northwest for work (or fun) and want to squeeze in a little hiking time.

Yes! I will take in the museum too. I'll save that for the nieces and nephews too. I saw Holy Cross on a trail site and it sounded pretty interesting as well.

I haven't done roughly 3K change since Coal Bank to Engineer Peak in the early 80s. I had 2 weeks at Purgatory under my belt and it was still rough for this flatlander. I'll re-examine elevation...

headed there for work in 2 weeks and may have a day or 2 free on the weekend before heading back to seattle.

middle to the end of this week? Headed there for a family "get together" and looking for day hikes to "free myself". :)

Even a blind squirrel gets a nut every now and then....

Yes, the name is cool too!

Looking out my window in Woodstock, it's pretty!

A simply SUPERB stove.....bar none! Zelph, you've done it again!!!! Easy to use, no waiting, lights fast.

Nicely done Rev! An inspiration for me indeed!

"I was going to buy a down jacket or comforter from a thrift store and just rip it open, but even the childrens jackets were $10+ at Goodwill. I need cheaper!"

I have a lead on a cheap (how about...

I wear gloves, no blisters = no problems :)

I have 4 coats of oil based poly on it now, pretty smooth. Working on braiding leather for a strap now. A copper cap for the bottom too. I'm pretty happy with Redbud, it's a fine material.
...

Wool, preferably cheap, used merino from the thrifty. Nothing better.

The Redbud is drying pretty well. I have two other poles drying alonside too. No checking after the initial few inches on each end after a week or so. It takes a hand plane well and is showing a...
