This is neat. Some of Ya'll sign up so I don't have to send it to Maine when I get it.  Smiley

Easy peasy.
Get the box.
Take something.
Add something.
Send it down the line.

Jason promoted this on Backpacker too. It's got quite a few people on the list and it's a very cool idea too! I'm already signed up.

WooHoo! I recieved it y-day. Contents: 3 homemade UL back packs, a V8 stove, a tarp shelter, some Backpacker's Pantry Huevos Rancheros, a candle lantern, a prescription pill bottle and a mint tin.

I haven't decided what I want to keep yet.

It's next stop is in Bessemer.

Shipped it off to Bessemer.
Took:
a homemade G4 UL pack
the tarp shelter
the Huevos Rancheros

Added:
a pair of size L C9 capris (ladies black)
a pair of size M C9 shorts (nylon watersport style)
2 emergency ponchos
a propane stove

I would've added more but we donated a bunch of stuff a month ago. I also thought about donating my Peak1 white gas stove but, didn't think I should donate something potentially unsafe.

Man you scored big time with the pack and tarp! What is the Huevos Rancheros? Did someone put food in there? Huh?

Yeah, its one of those Backpacker's Pantry meals. I'll probably cook it up on my AT section/weekender coming up. It should really make my buddies hate me.  Cheesy

...the Huevos Rancheros

The Huevos Rancheros is great at several of our local Mexican eateries... never tried it on the trail.  Let us know if it's any good flemdawg!
