I once carried an entire keg 15 miles in my pack back in '72.Shush You! That trail was uphill mind you. In the middle of a blizzard nontheless. But when I got to camp I got totally smashed.

Lightweight scheightweight.

The one benefit of packin the hard stuff is you can reuse the nalgene for H2O later and your not packin tin up the hill. But a keg, when it was finished did you use it to raft down the river to your car>?? Ride em cowboy.

That was a tastey post hike beverage indeed!!

My brother carried 18 into Parson's Spring. He didn't even take them out of the box. He just shoved the whole thing in and started hiking. Laughing
