It's in the Piney Woods which gets a lot of rain. Should I trust the weather forecast and not take it if rain isn't predicted? If it rains in February...it can be COLD.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573262524755768643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-29567002922444726762009-12-24T01:11:00.269-06:002009-12-24T01:11:00.269-06:00sorry Jen, backpacking is very different to hiking...sorry Jen, backpacking is very different to hiking. The first is a sport designed in an Ad agency, the 2nd. Well one gram extra carried over ten miles is not one gram. It is one gram per step over that ten miles. <br />Anyhow, I was a bit worried, for tips for one area/region are very different.... Well, dudh a le Homer Simpson, but there is a point, if it hasn't rained in that area during that month since they have records why the heck are you going to hump a tarp with gromets.Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442327549417743472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-10187453510903327442009-12-23T20:50:42.445-06:002009-12-23T20:50:42.445-06:00@Alexis AKA MOM: I may not be worth much as a bak...@Alexis AKA MOM: I may not be worth much as a baker, but I can use a slow cooker like nobody's business.

You can get gormets to add to the flooring if you want to make it a tarp too. I normally roll my tent in the ground cover to keep it dry in case of rain... when is this expedition that you're planning?sagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17499891950639742366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-77413242623911719962009-12-23T03:45:10.500-06:002009-12-23T03:45:10.500-06:00Sorta ballpark, but where are you going anyway.
