Its that time of year again, nothing makes you realize how much crap you have laying around doing nothing than planning for your next trip. All items are in NE Minneapolis. I'd be happy to ship anything at the buyer's cost. Many of these items were bought off Amazon, so you can see a lot of feedback and reviews if you look them up there.

Ambient Weather WR-77 Radio, FM/AM and weatherband, runs a long time on 4 AA's. Pretty sure its missing the plastic cover for the jacks but its not waterproof at all anyway. $10

Eton Scorpion FM/AM and Weatherband radio. This is the original model. Great design, good sound quality. Unfortunately the battery life is short, perhaps it could use a new battery pack. I'll include the cable I made for it so I could use a USB battery pack and charge it via USB as well. $20

Avinee Camping Stove and case. Nice wide base, windproof, 0.62lb. My experience is that it misbehaves with cold fuel under 40F, which is pretty much when I do all my camping. SOLD

50ft of Gold Paracord, and 50ft of Green, both with reflective tracers - $7

Guide Gear 11ftx11ft Green Tarp. Seam sealed a few seasons ago. Kept me dry in Louisiana last month in my hammock. Has blue reflective paracord on corners, I'll include two more matching paracord ropes. Replaced one pull out. A classic. I'm conflicted on selling it.... $40

Hey Daniel, off topic, but... I'm interested to know how you made your USB cable for the eton radio. My radio didn't come with a USB cable, but it looks like a common connection. If you don't mind enlightening me my email is listed in my profile, otherwise a thread started in the gear forum would explain for others as well. Thanks!

A lot of misc stuff goes into doing a project like that. I'll put together a thread and let you know. Definitely involves a multimeter, a soldering iron, heatshrink, a torch and a lot of tinkering behavior.

I'm interested in the OR bag.

I'll be unavailable until Monday. I'd like to take a look at it to see if it'll work for my son, send me an email and let me know if we can meet next week.

Thanks for the stove Daniel. Seems to work well when I fired it up. I was a little embarrassed when I realized I forgot my wallet! Maybe I will see you on the water, pete

No worries, it all worked out. Early May in the BWCA is not likely on my schedule. You are a brave man.

1lbs 13oz with the four corner ropes and the bag. The corner ropes are like 8-10 feet long in my estimation, 2oz each. So like 1lbs 5oz for the tarp/bag only. Some zing it would be a good upgrade.

The original details from here don't include a weight:
Constructed of tough 190T nylon
1,000mm polyurethane water coating
