simonm- Thank you! I will think about buying one in the new year. Right now, a poo trowel in a santa stocking doesn't rate well with the kiddlets... Lol.
Mark F- Thank you for your reply. It does make me feel very unwelcome in this section. I don't carry any extra tent pegs, and mine are nothing like the ones pictured. They are small, and used for my tent. I don't want to dismantle my tent to go to the toilet or if my children decide that they need to go. Keep in mind the reason why I want to go UL is not so that the pack I'm carrying is light, it is because I need to carry enough for at least two people. I thought people that do UL would be the best resource to have these kind of questions answered.
On another note- I wonder who calculates the weight saved verses cost scenario.
Eg. New trowel, weight saved 73g cost $30.80. Cost per gram saved = $0.42 per gram
Eg. New pack, weight saved 1100grams cost $199.50. Cost per gram saved = $0.18 per gram
Mmmmmm.... numbers can justify just about anything!
