Kevonia,
The annual gourmet trip is for 2 nights in the Sierras and icludes 2 outrageous dinners and lunches. My friend brings all of the food and I bring all of the gear.

We use both of my huge Kelty packs, the cloud 6500 and the Super Tioga frame pack and we fill each to the top and carry 40 pounds apiece. Two bottles of fine wine packed in and out.

And 2 huge airmattresses for Boating on the lake. The reason for this trip is to just kick back and totally eat, suntan, and hang out for 3 days. We rarely hike over 5 miles, normally 2-3,but one requirement is a private lake.

Jim
