Here is something I have mentioned before, but it is worth repeating.  
Loosing/triping over tent stakes and finding other gear early in the
morning before 
you hit the trail is an on going problem.  It can still be dark outside
as you 
get your gear together and pack up.  Also, at night you want your gear
to be 
easily found.

Just put a small piece of reflective tape around/on your gear.  Then put
some 
clear packing tape on top of the reflective tape to make it more durable

(reduce cracking, etc.).  Go to the Walmart auto section to buy the red
reflective 
tape.  It also come in white reflective tape, but I like the red better.

The weight of doing this to your gear is a fraction of an ounce and it
is 
inexpensive.

Later, Switchback
