My wife and I have used a steripen in Kenya, Nepal, and Cambodia, seemingly
with success. For my ride on the GDMBR, I am going to go with a Grayl water
purifier bottle

Ha, Bob! As some of my trips will attest to, cutting down is easy. Keeping only
what is essential ... that’s the tricky bit. Grin.
On this trip, the Office of Readings was on the “already but not yet” nature of
faith and dawn ... I am always humbled by how contempory prayers can be. Grin.

Hi Deacon Patrick,
Appreciate the list and write-up.
You are an inspiration to actively stripping down to what is essential. I
try to teach that to our kids when we are hiking/camping.
I definitely understand lauds, vespers, and the rosary too.
Thank You,

Bob, spot on! The squeeze bag filter is my plan for if I ever need physical
filtration on a semi-regular basis. The Steripen works on bacteria and virus,
if I understand correctly.

Patrick,
The Steripen looks cool. You could throw a Sawyer Squeeze in with that to take
care of any physical debris in the water. It takes up very little space and
weighs next to nothing. Only downside is it doesn’t work against viruses—but
maybe your pen does that—so it’s not a standalone solu

Lum, I missed your water question. I carry as part of my day saddlebag a
Steripen, so refill at water sources along the way. Great for mountain streams,
less great for lower down cattle contaminated water, though I’ve used it there
too in a pinch. It obviously doesn’t remove physical matter.

Thanks, Patrick!

Tony, aye. Still roasting with the Zen Roaster. We love it. I roast (3) rounded
1/4 cup scoops each morning, which seems to be the max the wee roaster can do.
That keeps the six of us in coffee for the next day. Free beans? What a deal!

How long my usual bikepacking trip? I do a fair numb
Patrick,
What do you do for water when you are out in the wilds? I think I would go
thru all 4 of those bottles in one 24hr period.
What kind of keto jerkey are you eating, or do you make your own? I have
only found one type of jerky that is really low on carbs (1g/serving) but
it is $$$..

Are you still zenroasting your beans? I'm a couple months in with my
zenroasting. The novelty has worn off but I get perfectly acceptable
results... Not as consistent as my local coffee house but definitely good
enough. Costs about 30min twice a week to keep us in beans. I've been gifted

Of beans and butter ... I eat the butter with the meat and cheese ... 8 beans a
day atop 8 squares of dark chocolate for cafè mocha crunch. Cold brew is a good
idea. I may ponder that, though I’d pre grind the beans and bring more of them.

Great post Patrick, lots of thought, miles and nights out of doors are obvious
in your discussion. Two questions on your butter and coffee Bean
consumption... How are you eating there butter it? Does it go in a beverage?
And for the coffee beans sans fire/stove are you going cold brew?
Thanks,
Tom, it’s a bit burried, but gearing details are 5th paragraph in...
