Heading to to the Black Hills National Forest Tomorrow

Tuesday night and Wednesday night, I'll be camping out in the Black Hills National Forest. Some final gear testing before heading to Denver on Friday.

I'll be sure to log some gps tracks.

My current challenge is trying not to get overloaded with tech gadgets on this ride. Already have camera, mp3, gps, cell phone, and SPOT transmitter. So roughly 2 lbs of gadgets, plus another lb of batteries and charging paraphenalia.

I'm hoping to eliminate the GPS and cell phone for my Peru trip in January. I'd like to get my total pack weight under 8 lbs for Peru. So I can trail run with everything on my back. But I digress. One trip at a time.
