[at-l] Gear List - for March **BFT** OT

[Russ Drake]

All,
   
    I am going on a BP trip in March in the Black Forest Trail (BFT) here in PA and I am trying to minimize my gear all the while trying to think of staying warm while in camp.
   
    Another issue is that there is going to be a few stream crossings... I know how to do this in the mid summer hikes .. but I never tried this in March ... I am thinking of slipping into my croc's and slip across as quickly as possible.
   
    Here is my gear list with the weights
