[pct-l] SuperSecrets of Backpacking - Heat

[Hiker97 at aol.com]

One again, Switchback, comes through for  you with platinum information for 
the 2009 campaign.  It is never too early  to start planning.
 
Go to _http://www.ergodyne.com/home.aspx_ (http://www.ergodyne.com/home.aspx) 
 
They have really neat heat protection  gear for workers at construction 
sites.  I got their headband - "Chill-its  Temp Control".  It is really cold 
wrapped around the forehead.   Add one to the neck area  with your solar umbrella 
overhead and you are  really in charge banging down the trail in heat.  May be 
their anti-heat  vest would be nice too.
 
Say, you could be banging along Section A  and B in May and have icicles 
hanging from your nose.  Cool.
 
Switchback's anti-heat recommendations in  addition to the above:
 
1.  Birdiepal Dainty Umbrella - in  the silver metallic - about 5 ounces - 
use with Switchback's World  Famous
Hands-Free 2 ounce umbrella holder.   Go to _www.prolitegear.com_ 
(http://www.prolitegear.com)  to see  the umbrella.
2.  SunPrecaution.com clothing - hat  with full drape and super ventilated 
long-sleeve shirt
