MT Seminars Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Climbers, hikers, backpackers – come to the Ultra-Light Packing Seminar by Paul Griffith! Is your pack light enough? Do you start up Rainier with 25 pounds – including overnight gear, climbing gear, food, water, fuel, the rope, and the stove? On a 500 mile hike, does your gear weigh five to eight pounds (not counting the running shorts, tee shirt, floppy hat, and sneakers)? This evening’s talk will introduce packs, sleeping bags, and tents from two pounds to under a pound, cook sets that weigh ounces, night-and-day gear like the poncho and sleeping “quilt”, and matching camping techniques. No registration necessary. No fee. Members and non-members welcome. When: Tuesday, March 6 @ 7pm Where: The Mountaineers Program Center – Seattle Goodman B Room 7700 Sand Point Way NE Seattle, WA 98115
