Most influential gear? ... I received a recent ema Most influential gear?
...
I received a recent email inquiry from a well-known outdoor magazine that asked if I had thoughts on influential gear over the recent-ish decades. Equipment that revolutionized backpacking
..

..
But the inquiry did get me thinking. What gear did revolutionize the past time of backpacking?
...
What’s an influential item in backpacking?
..
I think such an item changes backpackers’ habits, techniques, or styles. In my opinion, none of the pitched items  accomplished these objectives.
