OK, guys, it’s all your fault! Packrafting seems to be one of those activities which when you first hear about it you develop an absolute craving for gear you didn’t even know existed a mere couple of weeks ago. I came across this forum and Alpackas in general by being sent over from somebody at hammockforums.org (and I though the gear fever was bad there!). So here I am: A newby now with a 2011 Llama, spray skirt and Sywleor paddle on order and with a considerable dent in my pocket. Pls assure me and tell me I did the right thing!
Thanks, Chris
You did the right thing…
I’m in the same boat! Pardon the pun. Placed my order for a Llama friday. I first saw these boats floating the South Fork Of the Flathead in 2007. We were walking and fishing our way out. July 2012 I plan to be floating and fishing my from the confluence of Danaher/Youngs down to Meadow Crk. Meanwhlie, I’ll be honing my packrafting system in east TN and western NC.

There and back!
