[pct-l] Super Light Weight Hiking Towel

[Hiker97 at aol.com]

I know many of you use your bandanna for a towel and for washing,  etc.  I 
use my mostly for cooling around my neck as I walk and for washing  my face 
during the day's walk.  If it is really hot then I  add one of those bandannas 
with the crystals inside to keep cool. 
 
The towel is the LightLoad Towel.  See _www.ultralighttowels.com_ 
(http://www.ultralighttowels.com) .  The  one I use is 12X24 inches and weighs in at half 
an ounce.  These are really  pretty neat.  They make bigger ones too, which 
might be better.  They  are made in Commie China.
 
Here is something very interesting.  As they come in their super small  round 
package, they weigh .5 ounce.  But when you use them and they dry out  they 
weigh in at .7 ounces.  I figure this is an other Commie plot to  increase the 
Capitalist base pack weight.
 
Your pal, Switchback the Towel
