I actually did end up packing a small paperback, the latest issue of backpacker, and a little tripod. My tripod isn't as flexible as the Gorilla-Pod, but it did the trick for a few group shots! <br /><br />Happy,<br />TrailsNevada Outdoor Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04752485509580066843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239824709798075176.post-67395283747955159462012-08-02T17:24:43.589-07:002012-08-02T17:24:43.589-07:00Good day,

On my JMT thru-hike I grabbed an Agatha Christie novel at Muir Trail Ranch. I portioned out the pages each night just before I slept, and finished the book at Guitar Lake. It was a sweet diversion.<br /><br />2. A small tripod for the camera. (I really like the Gorilla-Pod.) That way you can get into the picture and you can even shoot video!<br /><br />Good hiking, Ray<br /><br />Ray Rippel<br />Author, Planning Your Thru-Hike of the John Muir Trail<br />http://jmtbook.com/<br />Follow me at: www.twitter.com/JMTBookAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11461272852952474383noreply@blogger.com
