Camping

true.^ get a bivvy bag and lightweight s.bag and youre good to go. alpkit.com for awesome gear at good prices.
still have to eat out rather than carrying stove.
other option suggested by hippy is good too, just doing day stages, b and b stays, means you can go out and sample several of the local brews, and work them off the next day on a nice likkle fifty miler.

I thought Alpkit had a really bad rep - poor quality materials etc. Dont they sell loads of thier seconds every year on the cheap?
