10. Chris Conway

By following these ideas, this will ensure that future generations will be able to continue to use the great outdoors for many years to come.

On a lighter note, I came across this device in my local Valhalla Pure Outdoor Store and thought that I would mention it because it helps support the Leave No Trace ethic of minimizing your backpacking impact.














The iPood is a great device and kinda funny at the same time! Neat thing is that this "iPood Shovel" does not appear to need any upgrades!
