As the prep for my winter backpacking continues..... I decide to take a pulk this year. Little less thought into packing this way as I carry much of my down garments and bags in my pack and put the heavier stuff in the pulk.
Got a new sled this year ... the Jet Sled Jr. A strong polyethylene sled that tracks like a dream. www.shappell.co...
Added some fiberglass poles from SkiPulk ...www.skipulk.com...
He has all the pulk candy!
Take a gander at my homemade skeg ...... what a help it is in tracking
.
Do some side by sides of my MSR Denali snowshoes and my old traditional snowshoes. Snowshoes are the "drive" of your pulk pulling.
Lots of the pulk in action on unbroken deep snow. on steep traverse and up and down hills.
Gus McCrae drops by.......
"Foggy Mountain Breakdown" picked by my good friend Jamey "Big Dog" Guy on banjo and me and some of our pals.
Kelsey Long and I pick "Baltimore Jonny" ..... a Ronnie McCoury tune. Ronnie is one of my mandolin heros!!!!
Thanks for always watching!
All secure in sector seven,
Shug
