there was a time when everything I really "needed" fit in a backpack. having a truck = more creature comforts like a tent I can stand up in, a camp kitchen that can do more then just boil water and eat out of the same pot I cooked in, something to sleep on more then a thin 3/4 Therma-rest, fresh...
