In the coming weeks I expect to be undertaking a number of 24 hour trips. These trips will most likely be located on Sjælland in Denmark and will rely on public transport to and from the trail head.
As these are overnight trips then the gear required will be minimal especially as most of Sjælland is rural and a small town is never far away. However, it is the rurality (sic) that impacts on the ability to camp. Unlike Sweden and Norway there is no All Mans Rights and camping is strictly regulated, perhaps rightly so in a small country such as Denmark. But this means that any camping locations have to be chosen wisely taking account of the surroundings and the impact on other members of the community, for this reason my shelter will be either a bivy or tarp in subdued colours, likewise my clothes will also need to be of a subdued colour.
For the big three I intend to use
Gossamar Gear Murmur a pack that will undoubtedly hold more than is needed for an overnight trip.
Sleeping quilt will be my Nunatak Arc Specialist quilt.
Shelter, will vary between the Nemo GoGo and the Golite Poncho Tarp
As for cooking I will use a Caldera Keg H or a wood burning stove. ( More details will follow on the wood burning stoves). If not using wood then I intend to use Esbit (14 gm) as I have found it to be reliable when boiling 600 ml of water. To light the Esbit I use an alcohol hand cleaner and a mini bic lighter.
I intend to write more gear comments as the trips unfold in the coming weeks.
