Welcome Scott... nice to find another backpacker
amoung (amongst, Jeff) us oldtool users. I think that
you'll find the Porch very helpful in greasing any old

Steve in Dallas, 
who should have taken a kayak instead of a backpack
this past weekend when he hiked the Little Missouri
River in Arkansas this past VERY RAINY weekend.
