Hello,
My Son has done Philmont twice as an insulin dependent diabetic. First
time using injections and second time with a pump. There is a lot to
tell you but generally of little use to the population of the list. Send
me an E-mail at mikebarnhill@tds.net or call me at 303-622-6362 and I'll
tell you of our experiences. Both of them good. You can also send him
an E-mail at ryanbarnhill@tds.net and he'll relate to your concerns even
better than I.

Subject: [Philmont]: Insulin Pump and backpacking
Question for those who backpack and have an Insulin Pump.
Looking for info and feedback on Backpacking with an Insulin Pump. I am
considering going to a pump to manage my diabetes
Has anyone out there gone to Philmont with a pump or just backpacked
with one. Any pointers or advice. Does the catheter or the pump
Interfere with the hip belt on your backpack etc. Does the backpack and
hip belt interfere with the pump.
