Some of the equipment I used during HikaNation

TENTS
The Marmot Burrow - what was I thinking??
The Burrow was a horrible mistake so I borrowed a tent in Nevada and
then I bought a Starflight tent in Utah in mid-July 1980, and then bought
a North Face VE-24 Dome which arrived in Kentucky, February 20, 1981.
BACKPACKS
I started off with a Camp Trails backpack
and switched to a new Kelty Sonora II backpack
at the Mississippi River crossing, Missouri, January 14, 1981.
