  • How to Pack a Backpack a Correctly Organized Backpack Will Make Your Hike Even More Comfortable
    How to Pack a Backpack A correctly organized backpack will make your hike even more comfortable. Regardless of how in shape you might be, incorrectly packing a backpack can quickly lead to overexertion on even the simplest of hikes. Here are a few tips to make your backpack as comfortable as possible. Keep in mind, however, this is a general guideline. You may have to tweak these tips a little bit depending on what gear you decide to bring on a hike. Find the right backpack. First things first, be sure that your backpack fits you well and also will be adequate for your hike. If you are going on a simple day hike, you don’t need a humongous expedition pack. Likewise, daypacks are generally too small for multi-day use. Sleeping bag at the bottom. Even though most hikers will build upon these general rules to create their unique packing system, almost everyone agrees that your sleeping bag belongs at the bottom of the pack. On an external frame pack, this means it is lashed to the frame below the pack itself. Back breakers. Heavier items should be kept close to your back and higher up in your pack to help you maintain a center of gravity. This setup keeps you from breaking your back with heavy loads that pull your pack backwards or side to side. Avoid skewing the weight distribution to one side. Even complex suspension systems on internal frame packs can’t compensate for a dramatic difference in weight from one side to another. Plan for easy access.

  • Canadian Rockies Backpack
    Canadian Rockies Backpack PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Geology, alpine ecology, cultural history of the Canadian Rockies and wilderness skills will be the focus of this program that will take place in the Banff area of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta, Canada; home of clear trout streams, cold alpine lakes, glacial cut valleys and rugged mountains. We'll investigate alpine ecology and geology in this land of granite and metamorphic rocks, basalts, and marine sediments. We will also venture up the ice highway to the Columbia ice fields where we will be able to learn more about the glaciers that played such a large role in shaping this land. With luck, we'll also have a chance to see black bear, elk, and golden eagles, and the wildflowers should be beautiful. We'll be practicing both native survival and modern wilderness skills: backpacking, food preparation, orienteering, and minimum impact camping techniques. We'll practice these skills in alpine and sub-alpine forests, and in the lower elevation areas in grassland habitats. We want to expose you to the skills and knowledge that are needed for safe involvement in outdoor activities of all types. Course Syllabus OBJECTIVES: Academic and outdoor training goals ♦ To safely and effectively learn how to pack, prepare, and participate in a backpacking expedition to a remote area and to be prepared for a range of environmental conditions ♦ To understand general concepts of geology, stratigraphy, superposition, metamorphism, continental drift, and glaciation ♦ To increase ability to observe the natural world ACTIVITIES: Hands on learning in the field ♦ Leave-No-Trace Camping techniques ♦ Mapping and identification of geologic outcrops along hiking route ♦ Wildlife sighting ♦ Wilderness navigation ♦ Examination of alpine plants examples of dry vs.

  • Staying Warm in a Sleeping Bag
    Staying Warm in a Sleeping Bag While the temperature rating of a sleeping bag is important, it is just as important to do the things that will keep you warmer in whatever bag you have. Mike Conkey, a Northern Tier OKPIK winter camping instructor, suggests the following. 1. Stay dry - complete dryness. Before you go to bed, change into dry sleeping clothes reserved for use in your tent and bag only. Air your bag out whenever possible to remove any moisture. The best policy here is to follow the Philmont "sleeping clothes" requirement. This requirement will be explained in detail at the Watchu Mountain Adventure. 2. Make sure you have a stocking cap available in your sleeping bag. The biggest heat loser is your head. The first thing someone who is "cold" should do is to put their cap on. 3. Don't pull your sleeping bag over your head and breathe inside. You can easily exhale a pint of water into your sleeping bag during the night. This creates dampness and spoils point #1, complete dryness. A related issue is to make sure your tent is adequately vented. If your tent is not vented, exhaled water can condense on the tent and drip onto you and your sleeping bag. 4. Stay hydrated. Your body needs water and fuel (food) to generate heat. On a cool night, a light snack and long drink of water before bed will help you stay warm. A long drink of warm or hot water would be even better. On those cold high mountain nights, fire up the stove; get everyone to have a hot drink before they head to bed.
