    Drawstring bag to hold backpack

    Recently I have seen one thread and maybe two that had some links to inexpensive bags in which to place pack for checking. Can someone point me in the right direction? My searches are not coming up with the links that I think I remember.

    Group walk Oslo to Trondheim

    Is anyone else thinking about doing this? I normally do not sign on to groups but am considering this one as the route is not as well supported as the CF and I think I will enjoy it more when I don't have to concern myself over those little survival necessities like food and shelter.
