Haha, yea, I've been doing that for a couple of years after reading about that technique......works great!! But now I have a Bearikade so I guess I can sell my bearvault or keep as a back-up.

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.
