I am really disappointed that they introduce new, great products like this - that everyone loves - and then discontinue them within 4-6 months. I really don't understand the strategy. I bought this chair in May '13 for Wood Badge - loved it - now want one for my husband and can't get it, so I'll just have to go to REI or elsewhere for a chair.

You will need a day pack every day to carry your rain gear, water, lunch and your other essentials you will need while doing your jamboree adventure away from your campsite.

Call a few council stores and national stores and ask if they have it in stock. That is how we got ours in the first place. They will hold them or ship them. If that doesn't work you might want to try our store and spend a few more dollars to ge the Big Agnus Helinox ...same chair and in colors. http://astore.amazon.com/teachingand05-20?_encoding=UTF8&node=8<br /><br />good luck...

I've always thought that comparing Silver to Eagle was a bit of a stretch, but if there is some sort of similar type project as part of Silver, I can easily make the comparison between the two.<br /><br />I really think a project like this really adds to the development and growth of a young adult. I'm eager to see what this looks like once the details become public.<br /><br />Michael O'Donnell<br />Greater Saint Louis Area CouncilMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09512657248491381993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8528377847590702513.post-22752337929972859202012-12-14T16:40:56.078-05:002012-12-14T16:40:56.078-05:00Glad you are enjoying your new Custom Griptilians!...Glad you are enjoying your new Custom Griptilians!

Try and find gear that is simple, light, and Thrifty. My tent is 1/3 the price and 1/3 the weight of that Big Agnes tent, and I've been in some pretty rough weather with it.<br /><br />http://wunderwood.org/most_casual_observer/2010/03/mld_speedmid_tent_less_is_more.html<br />http://wunderwood.org/most_casual_observer/2010/07/pyramid_tents_at_philmont.html<br /><br />You can get under 15 pounds. My base weight is 14.25, which allows me to bring a book, a chair, and a big camera and stay under 20.<br /><br />I guess it is time for me to post about my big three. I did post an overall report on my gear a few years ago, but I pack lighter now.<br /><br />http://wunderwood.org/most_casual_observer/2009/08/gear_list_for_the_emigrant_and.html<br />Walter Underwoodhttp://wunderwood.org/most_casual_observer/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8528377847590702513.post-48019821006576891372012-08-19T00:17:43.810-04:002012-08-19T00:17:43.810-04:00Out here in the west, and most places, really, it ...Out here in the west, and most places, really, it is most humid at night and drier during the day. We air out our sleeping bags during the day to get rid of the sweat condensation from sleeping overnight. That keeps the sleeping bag dry and warm for the next night.<br /><br />Crocs are light, but no camp shoes are even lighter. I stopped carrying those about twenty years ago when I started hiking the mountains in comfortable shoes -- trail runners.<br /><br />There is a reason why they call toilet paper "trail money", nothing quite does the same job. You can justify the extra as emergency firestarter. Just rub in some Chapstick, which is mostly petroleum jelly.
