    Yeha nah, ear plugs no good in the Bush. My kimber weighs less than 3kg scoped, suppressed with a full mag

    MTN carbon fiber walking axe and Z-Packs carbon fiber staff.

    Yet to use but the staff is quite strong.

    Hard to photograph well.

    There's 15% off Hammock Gear quilts for the next couple of days if anyone is interested. I got one of their Economy Burrow quilts for work last year and I really like it, will have easily spent more than 100 nights in it. Great value per gram and value for money option. Made in the USA. Just note: they sell their quilts in two different widths, narrower for hammock users and 5" wider for ground sleeping. The standard option is for a hammock sleeper, so don't forget to check the wider option.
    Regards, Joel

    Surely the ultimate is to go into the bush wearing nothing but a knife?

    Whoohoo, tx to the Exped Lightning pack I got of gimp a couple of weeks ago, and the tip from @joelhenton about the discount on quilts at Hammock Gear (fits nicely into my tiny Macpac drybag as well !), I am on a roll
