Useful stuff not just hip . Thanks.
wow
I would be your best and happiest spokesperson ever! Wow. I really need this to take my backpacking and hiking to the next level! Jaaaa
Excellent kit!
Nice!
Again backpackers is the people I want to represent. I will be finishing my incredible wild savage hike on Quebecs International Appalachian Trail today. 3 times I had no services for 6 hiking days. And could wash my others fir 12 days. I am afraid the Appalachian thru hikers that think they are hiker trash really don’t understand the true meaning of hiker trash. If you really want to feel a 12 hiker trash smell, then try hiking Quebec’s IAT one day. This was my 2 time thru hiking this 650km or 404mile trail and it is very intimidating and rewarding.
Thank You Backpackers.com and all the cottage vendors for the great opportunity to make it possible to get a low enough base weight for all us disabled hikers to get back on trail!!couldn’t do it without your high quality light weight gear!!
Great offer. Thanks
Thanks so much for the chance to win such awesome gear!! ♥️
