[pct-l] tarp, tent, or nothing



First of all I would like to thank Tony for his thoughtful comments.  They
are clear and to the point.  A few years ago when I hiked all of Oregon I
used a tent/tarp and it worked fine unless the bugs were real bad.  Now I
am not a smoker but I do carry a small pipe and it sure was a pleasure
lighting it up to fend of the bugs.  I wonder if anyone else uses this kind
of "off the wall" solution for bugs.  At times it was better than being all
greased up with bug spray.  I have come to really like a tarp, bug head net
and my pipe.  ThanX again to all you hikers,  When you are so far away from
the PCT, the PCT list is a real daily pleasure.   Mikel
