Years ago, I would carry 1/2 a liter of wine in a nalgene bottle I 
swiped from the stock where I worked. Made the evening enjoyable and 
made the ground much softer. (liquid mattress)

I'm not suppose to consume alcohol any more, but I still have a few 
drinks. However the wine does make the pack heavier.

The day was beautiful with blue skies, sunshine, the Continental Divide looked awesome  and I was  accompanied by good friends. Saw a part of my adopted home town that I never saw before.
