bandanna's are the bomb for this. always one in my back pocket... i always end up with them, cause the roll in my pack always ends up in my hunters kit.

When I was a teenager, I was out hunting and I had a case of the raging ##its.  Just so happened I was wearing my dads coat.  He didn't find it all that funny when I came home with a coat missing both pockets.  I never did tell him I was also missing my shirt sleeves, underwear and the upper part of my socks.  That was one bad day.  Oh and yes that was after I spent all my mountain money.

Good buy, I just got my Schnee's catalog and it is listed in there for $199.00 plus shipping.  I'll bring in one of their catalogs they have a lot of great stuff and they sent me 2.

I had a great experience with basegear.com.  They have 20% off for new members.  I got a Marmot Helium Long bag for $300.  It is an awesome bag at 2 lbs and is a very warm 15*.

I forgot one of the most important small items for the gear list and one that will potentially save your trip.....a package of moleskin for your feet.  Dont leave home without it!
Vegetarians?..Vegetarians are cool.  All I eat are vegetarians....except for the occasional mtn. lion steak.
