Ensure success on your big backpacking trips with smaller practice trips beforehand. Try different gear, strategies and skills in a low-risk environment.

Sounds like a good system. Try anything differently lately, gear-wise or skill-wise?

I purchased a Flame III bag from Sea to Summit, and some ultralight dry bags and towel that are S2S ultra-sil and dry-lite knockoffs. I have to write up a post here about towels, I was doing some testing a week or two ago.
