Hanging the Bear Bag


Hello!
I am still developing where this blog is going to go. I have a couple thoughts. The title is still a work in progress but as one of my friends put it when you are out finding a bear bag tree and hanging a bear bag a lot of things go through your head. I don’t know if you have ever hung a bear bag before but in the North Cascades it is not the easiest task.  The branches aren’t long enough or strong enough.  I do a lot of my backpacking institutionally so when you are in a large group you have a LOT of food that you have to carry. Thus a lot of food that you have to hang, it can be quite the process after a long day. Even on personal trips bear bagging is always an adventure.
