Forty Pounds or Bust!

In conjunction with spice kit alterations, the Gulch (at NOLS Rocky Mountain) is looking for more ways in which we can contribute to the 40 lb. initiative.  One such effort is the miniaturized version of the Cookery.  The first edition of the lightweight Cookery was printed on “waterproof” paper but did not hold up as expected.  This new edition is a laminated version of the slimmed-down Cookery and is hoped to be more durable.  This version weighs in at a scant .11 lbs.  40 lbs here we come!

    *The 40 lb initiative is a push by NOLS to have the start pack weight for the Wind River Wilderness courses down to a consistent 40 lbs.
