Packing for a trip this weekend, and M thought is amusing to see the cavernous North Fork at full extension.

Not so huge when cinched down, but huge for an overnight.  Packraft, ski stuff, synthetic insulation.  The plan: Nyack Creek and Coal Creek in Glacier.  Spot link. Should be fun.

Some new gear arrived this afternoon.  It won’t fit a packraft inside, but may well be the shiz for ultralight and fast hikes come summer.

Initial impression: slick.  Very slick.
