Not yet, but Algonquin is gorgeous. Love it up there
We need a backpacking gear thread, a "what's in your pack" type job.
During the summers I perform archaeological field work in Belize and this year the staff is doing a 10 day camp/excavations in the jungle near the Guatemalan boarder. I'm pretty damn excited, my last jungle camping experience was for 6 days, two years ago.
Oh man, that sounds awesome. I've been thinking about a trip to belize for a long time, though more of a resort deal, but one that is buried in the jungle.
Edit: was just making a what's in your pack thread when I saw the name change.
So guys, whats in your pack? What do you consider essential for camping/backpacking?
(...) As for a what's in my pack, it changes all the time depending on the trip so producing one list isn't going to be something useful for me.
I'm an ultralight backpacker. My new additions include a tarp, alcohol stove (less than 1 ounce!), and a laundry line (so I have just one extra pair of clothes).
