Re: [Philmont]: Crew gear suggestions

I guess I was not clear enough. On our last 2 treks, it was made clear that
nothing entered our tents that MIGHT be smellable. We teach this, we practice
this. We purchased 2.5 gal. (?) ZipLocks at WalMart and used them for daily
clothing.

This does not negate the fact that one must do almost everything (enter,
leave, whatever) horizontal in a Philtent. I, for one, had a problem with that in
that being extremely well hydrated during the day lead to multiple entries
and exits from the tent at night. I now control fluids after about 5 at night.

For your information.
