I don't post often on the backpacking forum, but I have always found it to be the most civil, helpful and "grounded" place around the Campfire. I think that when a guy straps his rig to his back and walks a piece, it renders some of the nonsense out of him.

As for a fire, it is and will always be one of the elemental pleasures of the woods. As for Gainesburgers, I suggest trying the ones with cheese.
