Ultralight burro trip

[burrohiker]

Did a Youtube Video from a trip last week where I really concentrated on bringing only the essentials. Also made some breakdown electric fence posts which turned out pretty slick. Let me know what you all think.

I am preparing for a 180 mile pack trip through Colorado later this summer.

Just wanted to say thanks for the videos. I think I have seen them all and have enjoyed them.
You have some beautiful country for your training trips.

Not only is your gear ultralight but so is your pack animal.

I did not watch your entire video, will try to this evening, but how much weight can the average burro handle on moderate terrain?

Well that is handy- I will look into those!

Like all pack animals it depends on the condition of your animal, size, and terrain. But anywhere from 80-120lbs.

Good luck on your upcoming 180-mile pack trip through Colorado! I'm sure it will be an incredible adventure.
