    I’ve recently bought a Naturehike Rock 60L model for the children to use. It’s ultra light and some struggle with weight. It has no back adjustment but fit’s 6’ and the back length is 20”. Long term reviews seem happy with durability, there is a 40L model that fits smaller folks. Hip belt...

    My belt kit.

    Yep. I’ve not seen an Allen kit on my surplus rummaging lately. Maybe people hang onto them? The numbat is one of the better looking civi chest rigs. The US FLC is a really good (potentally cheap) base if you want front pouches and belt together. I really like the removable “Fanny pack”...

    Trees that fell but didn't die

    Reminded a fallen Lime tree that continued to sprout vertical limbs for many years. Used to camp there as a child often. Still one of my favorite tree varieties.

    Used clothing

    Online I have several people get most of second hand clothing & kit from. Build up contacts. All my clothing growing up was hand me down, even into adult hood. I had a very snazzy white fake motor cycle jacket at one point. But that was the 1980’s. :cool: I still get second hand kit from...
