If she decides to go with me again this summer, I'll probably take the big tent again, 'cuz weather in the Guadalupes tends to be unpredictable. If we were planning a hike-thru instead of an out and in I'd probably reconsider and take the smaller tent.
Where do you and your son like to backpack?

Greetings John,
Sorry for the very slow reply! I thought i was subscribed to this thread but missed your post!
Big Bend is a favorite and Bear Creek in CO is really nice. We have only done day hikes so far this winter... like Lost Maples and Government canyon. After reading your great blog we hope to do Guadalupe Mtns before the warm weather!
happy hiking to ya,
Maury
