[pct-l] REI Used Gear Sale Tomorrow

[Tortoise]

Us real old-tyme hard-core and soft-core backpackers use the "oh sh_t 
[censored]" method to put on our pack regardless of weight. Just put your 
arms thru the straps and lift said pack over your head then let slide down 
onto your shoulders with you arms thru the straps, cinch up, and your ready 
to go.

None of these mechanical hydraulic devices to haul and break down; just a 
little muscle power and a bit of know-how!
