SJMA to host backpacking light seminar

San Juan Mountains Association will host a Lightweight and Ultralight Backpacking – Carry Less, Do More seminar from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at Pine Needle Mountaineering, 835 Main Ave.

It’s easy to lighten your backpacking equipment substantially, down to a base weight under 20 pounds for lightweight backpacking, and under 10 pounds for ultralight backpacking, without sacrificing comfort or safety.

The seminar is sponsored by the San Juan Mountains Association at Pine Needle Dry Goods. The presenters, Will Rietveld and Janet Reichl, are SJMA Wilderness Information Specialists volunteers and avid ultralight backpackers with more than 35 years of experience.
