Hmm.. I'll see..
Dunno if I want to drill holes in a perfectly good pot.. LOL
I've whittled my pack down a bit..
I WAS going to get rid of the extra tarp..
But I thought, it weighs next to nothing, and takes up almost that in space.. Might as well hang onto it..
Was also thinking about ditching the Coughlan's emergency stove..
But it'd be nice to have inside a tent for some heat in the pouring rain..
Got rid of the Coughlin's tin of "camp heat" (diethylene glycol with wick) instead..

Also got rid of the leather work gloves and the rain suit (will go into the pack for the spring/summer/fall).
Also got rid of the bungie cords (I have plenty of twine and wire).
And the little .9 L pot.. Keeping the 1.4 L.
That's about all I can think of to part with, so far..
