[pct-l] Super-Secrets - Hiking Poles serving extra duty . . .

[chelin at teleport.com (Sharon & Chuck Chelin)]

Good evening, JD,

I have a 9.0" x 11.0" scrap of blue foam left over from a damaged sleeping
pad that I sometimes keep flat in the rear mesh pocket of my Breeze.  It
weighs about 20 gr. (0.70 oz.).  If I happen to be carrying it in the rain
or snow it is handy to pull out for sitting.  I also carry the sleeping pad
folded inside the back of the Breeze, and it is really soft for sitting, but
I won't pull it out unless I intend to dump out most of the pack.

Steel-Eye
