MH pouch order

Posted on by

Before I forget, Mountain House is having a sale starting in February. I’ll be ordering cases of the pouch foods for myself and the local LMI. This includes the ProPak,2- and 4-serving pouches. Unlike the #10 can buy from last year this will be open to anyone reading this so feel free to bring your friends in. I’ll have a page up with shopping cart in a few weeks and ordering will be closed at the end of January. Because the pouch foods are extremely light, this is a good opportunity for those who felt the shipping on the #10 cans was prohibitive. Example: a case (6 pouches) of spaghetti w/ meat sauce in the ProPak is about 3#. Since I can fit about two or three cases worth of pouches into one Priority Mail Flat Rate Box that means, depending on what you want, you can get two or three cases (maybe more) sent anywhere in the US (inc. AK and HI) for $8.10. Pouches are rated for at least seven years. Good for backpacking, hiking, geocaches, bugout bags, food caches and storage at secondary locations. Menu selection is much broader with the pouches than it is with the cans, so if nothing in the cans appealed to you Im sure therell be something in the pouches you’ll want.

More details as January unfolds.

Well, the world didnt come to an end in 2006. Not for me, anyway.
Still theres no shortage of things on the ‘To Do’ list.

Hey, remember The Box? The bunker that kitiara and I looked at back in 9/04? Heres the coordinates for Google Earth if you wanna see it: 46.081522°,-112.115643°
Wonder whats become of it……

2007 needs to see me making moves towards neutralizing any antigun agenda a Democrat/Hillary victory in 2008 will cause. I still maintain that the Democrats will win in 2008 but only if they dont run Hillary. If they run her then I call it a Republican victory. Someone pointed out to me that for the price of the Steyr .50 that I want I could buy about 45 stripped AR lowers. Thats a hell of a perspective.

Stranded motorists in Colorado are being searched for by plane. :::facepalm::: When the forecast calls for ‘glaciers, with possible ice age’ the smart money stays home. And, if for some reason, you feel you have to be out in that crap then at least have the brains to pack The Usual Winter Gear. Natural selection in action, folks. Snow..in Colorado..in the winter! Who would have thought!
