[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 236164, member: 704"] Kurt, I agree. However, there is little you can do about cartilage loss. A few pounds helps like you say, but it's years of hard work and carrying weight other than your own that takes it's toll. Back in 1993 when Jamestown flooded I put in my own two sump pumps. I remember carrying two five gallon buckets of dirt up the stairs (bad back and wanted to stay balanced) and two five gallons of buckets of pea rock back downstairs. Well actually in total the two sumps took a yard of pea rock. Anyway I noticed that's when my knees started hurting. Then the next fall in the mountains where I had never had discomfort going up the mountain wasn't bad, but coming down was a killer on my knees. Don't load your pack to heavy out there Kurt. You may have a picture of Cameron Hanes on your bedroom ceiling and wipe your ass with poison ivy, but it will still get you. Your advise is good. Take care. [/QUOTE]
