great idea – Hike Hacker

Based loosely on the wonderful Lifehacker blog, Tom Mangan is putting together a similar blog for US.

… devoted to handy hints for hikers, backpackers, etc.

My darling spouse has already contributed several tips for organizing and de-skunking a gear closet, for example.

Right now I’m thinking of keeping it down to a half-dozen simple categories:

1. Hygiene
2. Fitness
3. Gear
4. Navigation
5. Food
6. Safety

Suggestions welcome, as always …
