Equipment for the run...

turboale · 07-29-2003, 04:58 PM

I thought the other thread was getting kinda long, so I started a new thread.

I am bringing a gas grill, one cooler (we will def need more), two 5gal gas cans. It sounds like hyperlite has good recovery equipment. What else might we need? The food will be purchased right before we head out on the trail or right before we setup camp depending on what ppl want to do. Personally I prefer getting it before we head out, so we don't have to worry about getting back before dark b/c i'd rather not setup camp in the dark, but... if it happens it happens...

brain storm away!

Plus personals o'course... sleeping bag etc.

Turdoale, I won't be able to make this trip but does everyone use a CB to communicate? If so, what is a good inexpensive model for trail use only. Thanks.

Good thinking,
I think i have some talk abouts that work on cb frequencies when they are on "security code" 0. I'll have to see if I can find them though. I got a c75 in my truck though

no CB -- but Hyperlite and I have those little Moto walkie-talkies

I found the radios, and I have three. I might need to use one as my antenna on my cb is kinda funky. I'm gonna go try it out on the cb right now.

edit:
Poo, didn't seem to work with the cb. Thats funny, b/c I could swear they worked. Oh well, those of us that have both will just have to relay. Or we can use the good ol' fashion haller'n! I'm really excited I tried this b/c I bought a holster for my talk about when I used it for skiing, and it fist perfectly around the sun visor, so now its up there right where I need it. And my cell phone fits in there too! Anyway, just thought I would share. Any other ideas?
