Backpacking Technical Notes

From here you can branch off and find more details about backpacking.

Ten Essentials gives you a list of 10 things you should carry with you on any hike.  They're designed to let you live through the night, and get yourself found.

The 10 - 20 Importants is really my slowly increasing list of hints and clues to make the whole experience more enjoyable.  Feel free to send me your own "important" to add to the list.

Web sites - well, it's a list of a whole bunch of web sites that all pertain to hiking, backpacking, the gear, where to go, you name it.  I'm also looking for new sites to add to the list.
