I got some great ideas at the Gathering (yes Caroline, you would have enjoyed it!) so we shall see. <BR/><BR/>I am glad to have a small pack that wieghs so little. I don't need much physical baggage and certainly NO emotional baggage! 8-)<BR/><BR/>"Ginn"<BR/>In Sunny Santa FeVirginia ("Ginn")https://www.blogger.com/profile/17587919109305422263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816794210150646565.post-30536898538676255882009-03-19T09:16:00.000-06:002009-03-19T09:16:00.000-06:00I meant to comment before on your backpack dilemma...I meant to comment before on your backpack dilemma. It sounds like your REI pack is a lot like mine(brand and size). I bought a stuff sack (not a compression sack) at REI--for something like $8. After a few practice sessions I mastered rolling my sleeping bag to fit the sack and was able to cram the sack down into the bottom of my wee pack (30 l.)They have different sizes/dimensions of the sacks. This might not work for you but maybe you could give it a go. good luck.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14969562230049949955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816794210150646565.post-50153635473166027432009-03-18T13:28:00.000-06:002009-03-18T13:28:00.000-06:00Hmm, you make me wish I could have been there!
