[pct-l] Tarps and Scorpions

[trail-name-here]

By the way,
As usual, I left out some details - the book is a slim 95 pocket-sized pages 
for $6.95.
If you all are worried about the scorpions, then you really should get this 
since Buck gives the short but complete story on each critter you will meet.

Hasta la pasta
