Backpack Prep

Stove Test (Fairfax) - Marin County  2025

Backpack Equipment (Fairfax) - Marin County  2025

So, I was planning on driving over to my regular Bishop campgrounds in September, but smoke from the Garnet Fire was rendering the air quality in Bishop quite bad. Really quite bad.

So I had a change in plans: try to get a reservation at Coast Camp in Point Reyes for one of my regular backpacks there. It worked! I hadn't backpacked since 2023, so I had to go through all of my equipment to make sure I had what I needed.

(By the way, the MSR propane canister shown above was purchased in August, 2019 . . . I wrote the date on the bottom with a Sharpie.)
