[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 1225298, member: 1"] Here are me and Andy on my 3rd and last Teton Crest Trail trip. Andy is taking a drink while overlooking Phelps Lake on our first morning. [IMG]http://www.longrangehunting.com/images/SON00519.JPG[/IMG] The next is of me standing next to a historic and remote ranger field cabin, still used today. [IMG]http://www.longrangehunting.com/images/SON00528.JPG[/IMG] Here is Andy using his [URL="http://amzn.to/2b8qzBE"]Steripen UV light based water purifier[/URL]. I now use the Freedom model which weighs 2.7 ounces and has a built in rechargeable lithium battery. [IMG]http://www.longrangehunting.com/images/SON00529.JPG[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.longrangehunting.com/images/SON00579.JPG[/IMG] This next series of three shows my son's brilliance! We both use the [URL="http://amzn.to/2bDUe20"]Big Agnes "system" type of sleeping bags.[/URL] The Lost Ranger 15 degree model. There is a pocket in the bottom of the bags. The pocket holds our inflatable sleeping pads. There is no need for insulation on the bottom of the bag as a result and the pocket holds the pad in perfect position even for toss and turn sleepers. We use the [URL="http://amzn.to/2b7wuYO"]Q-Core SL model [/URL]of ultra light pad by Big Agnes. Well, Andy figured out you can deflate the pad in the morning and then simply leave it in the bag's pocket while you roll the whole thing up and slip it into the stuff sack. At the next camp there is no need to carefully re-insert the pad into the bag's pocket. Quite simple.
