[Gocamino] Chariat carrier

Sat Mar 4 13:04:02 PST 2006

TO: New Mexico couple, .
I sent you a seperate email but just wanted to chim in here about your 
"chariat carrier".  Only take it if you don't mind discarding it. Pack 
weight can become an issue ( it did with my wife and I ) ........pushing a 
carrier cart would limit you to roads and a few trails, but there are many 
trails that a push cart will not navigate without a lot of work.
