Next purchase for the trek

So a random search on the internet and I found what I hope is a bargain and the second purchase of items for the trek, the first having been the boots. This is a 4+ season sleeping bag suitable up to -25 which if that isn't good enough, i fear I may already have decided it is too cold.

So the list of equipment is still long, but at least this is a start.

Today is also telling me that shovelling all that stone on Sunday has used muscles I am not use to, as I had real trouble getting out of bed this morning. Thankfully I plan to move some more stone tonight, so at least I know which muscles I will be using again, they are the ones that are "killing me" at present.
