Plastic soda or water bottles make great inexpensive water bottles. A 2-liter bottle fits nicely into the side pocket of most backpacks.
Cooking over a fire
If you like to cook over an open fire, there is nothing like a small rubber hose to encourage reluctant wood, or coax a small ember to life. Start with a 3" piece of 3/8" aluminum or copper tubing. Slip an 18" piece of rubber tubing over the metal and you are ready for action. No more bending over with your face next to the fire trying to blow at just the right spot. One caution! Don't breathe in through the hose.







Twin Peaks Weekend
Date: June 18 - 20
Leader: Craig Hammond
We will camp two nights in the cool pine and aspen forests outside of Flagstaff. On Saturday, we'll climb Humphreys Peak (9 miles, 3,313' gain) - Arizona's tallest mountain. After enjoying the spectacular views north to the Grand Canyon and south past Oak Creek Canyon, we'll return to camp for a BBQ dinner. On Sunday, we will summit nearby and equally spectacular Kendrick Peak (8 miles, 2,718' elevation gain).
