I've been updating some stuff on the web site and still moving over old podcasts from the old site when I ran across these videos.  Shug sent them over awhile back and they are worth checking out again.  He goes through many of the items he carries, gives us a little information on each and talks about some of the problems he has solved.  There are four in all and they are only a few minutes each.  If you don't have time to view them all, at least check out the first one.  He's a Hoot.
Thanks Shug!

 
And Another Charging Device PDF Print E-mail

Check out the Personal Energy Generator.  I copied some interesting information from their web site:

The nPower™ PEG provides you with never-ending communication, entertainment, & security! With the nPower™ PEG, you create power for charging your cell phone or iPod. Just place the lightweight nPower™ PEG in your backpack, briefcase, handbag, or attach the gadget to your hip, and you’ll create energy any time you need it. The PEG works when you are in motion so you do not have to worry about being near a power outlet or running out of a phone charge while on the go ever again.

As I am sipping on some coffee, I thought I would ask what you all use to navigate out on your hiking adventures.  I use a combination of hand-help maps, compass, and GPS.  The GPS is mostly for my enjoyment as I love technology.  I grew up in the Army though and so I always have a hand-held map and the trusty lensatic compass.  I have a couple of GPS units...one that I have had for several years, a Garmin Rhino 130 which has been a very good GPS unit...but the one I am using exclusively now is the Delorme PN-40.  It's a great little unit and the thing I like the most about it is the combination of the maps and imagery I can load and use.  It's simply amazing how much stuff I can cram into this GPS and I love having the USGS Topo Maps loaded so that I can check my hand held against it.

I carry a short cord to hang my platypus in camp to have running water or to suspend it under my shoulder while I fill it with a pump. Well I came up with another use for that cord now.  I can use it as a sling and suspend my iPhone from the hammock's ridge line...
