Hi cc, The more I see of this, the more I like it. I am highly motivated to do it. I know the perfect place in the Black Mountain Open Space Park near my home that I want to be on Saturday morning, October 13. Wish there were a few more Rivsters in the area to share, but solitude at dawn is not a bad thing. Planning to take small Trangia stove, Zumbar Humming Bird Coffee, French Press with titanium cup in a handlebar bag, and a great attitude.
If all that works, maybe, just maybe, a salmon scramble in the Trangia, Some veggie to mix in, and a goodly portion of baguette to munch through the coffee and meal. Life can be good.
