Eagle732 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Knowing Ryan this will be an excellent course. If you want to learn more about ultra-light backpacking I recommend subscribing to his website and reading his book. Disclaimer: I have no connection with Ryan Jordan but I've read his books and been a subscriber to his website. Both are very valuable sources of information on lightweight backpacking.
