Mine:
1.  Tikka XP headlamp
2.  sock liners
3.  Superfly stove
4.  Leki Cor-tec poles
5.  EMS techwick baselayers

yeah, I guess people aren't into it...

My favorite gear:

Tarptent!!!!!!!!!!
Western mountaineering sleeping bag  ---- cozy...
Asolo boots - they lasted the entire through hike!

So - if you read this - I'm putting together an appalachian trail
memories round robin; details below.  Keep in mind - amount hiked is
very flexible, commitment isn't.  We still need 4 or 5 more people!

I’m hoping to put together a 12 person round robin for trail art/
memories, so I’m looking for people who:

1. Have a lot of experience with the Appalachian Trail (i.e. thru-
hikers, 2000 milers of all kinds, section hikers who have completed at
least half of the trail)
2. Can stick to a year-long commitment
3. Have some sort of creative skill or interest – photography,
painting, drawing, other types of visual art, or writing. You don’t
have to be a fabulous artist, just willing to put some time and effort
into each piece.

The commitment would be to creating a brand new piece of AT-related
art each month and a few dollars in postage each month. My idea is
that members of the group would create unique pages in each other’s
books relating to their own AT experiences. Members could draw, paint,
use photos, writing, collage, the sky is the limit, the more creative
and fun the better!

The structure would be as follows:

Those who are interested would be in email contact with me so that I
can assure commitment to the project and collect postal addresses.

By a certain date (hopefully May 20th), each member of the round robin
would be responsible for:

1. Purchasing/finding/making a notebook of at least 12 pages
2. Creating the first page
3. Mailing the book to the address I give them
4. E-mailing me once they have sent the notebook

Each member would then e-mail me again when they receive the notebook
they have been sent.

The next month (i.e. June 20th), each member would repeat the process
– mailing on the notebook they have created a page in, e-mailing to
let me know they have done so, and e-mailing when they receive the
next notebook.

If all members are committed, then by the end of a year each of us
will have seen and enjoyed 132 unique and creative pieces of
Appalachian trail memory, created 12 themselves, and have a book of 12
pieces (one from each member) to keep.

Please keep in mind that this is a year-long commitment. If someone
drops out or fails to hold up their end, then someone else could be
left without a notebook to keep. If this sounds like fun to you
though, and you’ll have email and postal access over the next year,
email me! Email me if you have any questions as well! Kar...@gmail.com
