Cracking post. Cheers. I love the reference to woollen stuff, but what about a Shemagh ? Surely no kit list is complete without one!

 

[Gaudette]

Assuming that boots, puttees , shorts, headgear, one shirt and one pair of underpants and socks are being worn, the weight of gear in the pack should not be more than 25 lb. If tramping is the be enjoyed, weight must be kept to the essentials conforming to the requirements of safety. Gear should be of good quality as well as light.

Very wise words!

Surely Gaudette you do not need a shemagh if you have puttees!!
