Luke from UltraliteSacks (www.ultralitesacks.com) stops by my home to visit with me about new and exciting materials that are available for gearmakers now in the backpacking world. It has only been a few years since Dyneema came on the scene and completely changed pack weight, size and what we have to carry every time we go out. Now, there are new and exciting materials, stronger than ever, that are available for gearmakers to make our gear lighter and stronger than it ever has been.
Luke loves to geek out on this kind of stuff so its fun to visit with him about this. He talks about some of the things he makes and why he makes different pieces of gear out of different materials and why.

Brandon "Horsepower" Weis is an American long-distance hiker known for completing the "Calendar Year Triple Crown" in 2021, which involves hiking the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail (a combined 8,000 miles) within one calendar year. Originally from Ohio, Weis was a future law student who left for the trails after an eye-opening backpacking experience in college, which inspired him to take on extraordinary hiking challenges.
Brandon returned home to pen his experiences in the book, "This is Gonna Hurt" where he recounts in detail what he went through to complete this (what some would call) crazy task. You can find the book on Amazon.

One of the truly classic hiking trails in the United States, let alone the world, Buckskin Gulch swerves through a subterranean paradise for the senses. Attempt this visually-arresting walk as a day trip, or walk the entire 20 miles over the course of four days.
Located in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (near Kanab, Utah) and Paria Canyon-Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness (Arizona), Buckskin Gulch trails takes hikers through the veritable layer cake of the Colorado Plateau's geographical wonderment. It is the longest and deepest slot canyon in the Southwest and offers obstacles like rock jams, pools, quicksand, and the potential for flash floods. Yet a day hike option via Wire Pass Trail is moderately easy, and should be a must-do tour on any hiker's list.

Choosing an unconventional path, his journey began with dropping out of college to immerse himself with a job on Wake Island, gaining valuable experiences that would later infuse his writing with a distinctive perspective. Returning to the United States, he started a dynamic career as a project manager for several prestigious architecture firms, coupled with a venture into real estate by flipping houses.
The allure of exploration took center stage when Cory made the bold decision to sell everything and traverse the globe for two transformative years. This period of travel not only broadened his horizons but also laid the foundation for a successful entrepreneurial endeavor. Cory established and grew a business into a multimillion-dollar venture, eventually selling it to pursue a shared dream with his wife, Kate.
Marriage to Kate marked the beginning of another adventure as the couple once again divested themselves of possessions to embark on a two-year journey through South America. During this time, Cory and Kate not only explored the breathtaking landscapes but also dedicated themselves to volunteering and trekking, fostering a deep connection with the communities they encountered.
In 2020, Cory Mortensen penned "The Buddha and the Bee," a captivating work that became a bestseller and earned acclaim with numerous book awards. This success was followed by the publication of "UNLOST," a top 100 bestseller and recipient of multiple book awards, further establishing Cory as a notable voice in contemporary literature.
Cory's writing seamlessly weaves together the threads of personal experience, cultural exploration, and a profound sense of purpose. Their work continues to resonate with readers worldwide, offering a unique blend of storytelling that transcends boundaries and inspires a deeper understanding of the human experience.
