Ultralight Backpacking Gear and Strategies Seminar - Online Classroom

The "Going Light" backpacking class will help attendees create their own personal lightweight system...to go backpacking more comfortably, or farther, or faster, or all three.  A system tailored to individual needs, budget and style.  We'll explore gear alternatives and trade-offs.  Do some lightweight "math." Look at gear and supply performance, ease of use, versatility, repackaging, durability and price.  See what AT, PCT and CDT thru-hikers most commonly have in their systems. Help you get familiar with some of the latest gear choices, from national brands to small cottage-industry companies.  Talk about a process to move toward lightening one's pack. And help you develop and maintain -- and adjust -- your own lightweight packing list.

Your seminar fee will go to support the Mountaineers through this difficult time!

This seminar will begin  at 6:30 PM and will be conducted online using ZOOM video conferencing software.  The zoom link will be sent out in advance by email to all registered participants.
