Yah, we're buyiing a lot in bulk. $8 a meal is a bit much when buying small salty meals. You could easily spend $80 a day. Multiply by 30, and it's a significant chink of change. Bulk is the way to go. I spent $220.00 on 21 lbs. of Backpacker Pantry groceries that lasted over 25 days. That worked out to less than $10.00/day. The Thai Satay with beef was my favorite. I strongly suggest you save weight. Take enough gas and food to make 14 camp, and bring a case of toilet paper. Trade for everything else you need... I just saw Gowler. He's back from Moab, and heading for Talkeetna next week for a couple of West Butt climbs with clients. Hope he has better luck than last season. He had one client killed outright by rockfall at Windy Corner and two severely injured who were flown out. Me? I'm gonna go see some San Francisco Giants games... -- According to John Perry Barlow, "Jeff Davis is a truly gifted trouble-maker." |

The Lipton Noodles 'n Sauce, Pasta 'n Sauce, Rice 'n Sauce are a staple for many, a great base for other meals. couscous is a good rice alternative, it cooks faster and I think it is a bit lighter in weight, too. Did that last year. Saves lots of fuel. -klaus |

It is the Indian Summer from hell here. Winter starts in June, and today the forcast is for 27 C which is summer temps. April is headed to be teh hottest april on record. Anyway, winter arrives tomorrow apparently so I'm off to buy a ute-load of firewood before they put the prices up. The bloke reckoned they don't even have their main yard open yet, as no one is interested. That's OK, it's supposed to be spring here, but it is snowing today. |

My mom, the long-time rabid Dodger fan, is disgusted. Dodger Stadium is ugly, the unknown team members don't have names, and she wants the management boiled in oil. She wouldn't go so far as to support the Giants, though. Nobody could be that sick. Still no obski, dammit. -- Cheers, Bev [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] [] If voting could really change things, it would be illegal. --Revolution Books, New York, New York |

Wipe with snow - clean your hands by rubbing more snow on them - worked fine up in the watershed at Solitude when I left a gift for mormons due to deficient restrooms when serious need hit a couple of months ago. When's that outhouse pump-out scheduled? |
