Well, they have arrived and look great! These are our new HST sew-on patches, 5"x 4", not iron-on ones, with advantages over iron-on ones. People who attended the 2024 Meet-up have first dibs, then members over 2000 posts, and then it will be opened up for all interested members. One hundred patches were ordered, so only one per person. Send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to:

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: NEW FREE HST PATCHES
Is it just me, or does the climber look like he's falling? IDK if this makes me want one more or less...

Re: NEW FREE HST PATCHES
Is a regular envelope with a regular stamp sufficient, or is a larger envelope and/or more postage required?

Re: NEW FREE HST PATCHES
Weight: 5g.
Thank you.
I want it to be visible from the front when I am hiking. It is attached vertically to a shoulder strap pocket on my backpack using some tiny safety pins. Easy to move it elsewhere. Is there is a better way?

Re: NEW FREE HST PATCHES
Maybe sewing or sticking it onto a more non flexible surface to which you could attach some sort of attachment system (velcro/safety pin) that you could use to attach wherever you want to, similar to a name tag.
Let me know what you come up with, Tomba.
