Ha, that ranger was just doing you a favor by being blunt about it. I finally left my camp chair at home last year and now I sit on a foam pad like some kind of swamp creature, but my knees thank me on every portage. Six days with 45 lbs is no joke, that older guy with 25 lbs was probably floating past you with a pillow and a book. The 3 person tent for one person is a tough one to give up though, all that room feels like a palace until you have to carry it. There is a fine line between being prepared and just hauling your whole house into the woods.

Oh man, the jean thing is real. So when you lay them flat, are you doing the whole pair or just the legs? I watched a video where the lady folded them in half long ways, then rolled them tight from the waist down, and that kept them from puffing up. But rolling a whole 6 day stack of jeans still felt like I was just making little denim burritos that took up the same room. Do you lay them flat and stack, or roll? And does it actually save space or just look neat?
