Gear Update1

So we got our stove... The MSR Whisperlite and a fuell bottle. Thanks to Richard's parents!

And I now have my own beautifully fitting backpack. Thank goodness for Christmas money (my Granddad)!

It came down to the Lowe Alpine Sirrocio and the Arc'teryx Bora 75. They both fit really well, but with additional weight the Arc'terx won because of the hip-belt. Additionally when we brought it home and I filled it with my gear it worked even better (a good tip if you are looking for backpacks is to try it with your own stuff).

It was a lot like finding the right shoes and but a little more fun.

So now we need:
