[E44]East Coast Adventure Travel

Packing for adventure travel is not a simple task and involves, as it should, a certain amount of thought and planning that you can do without while packing for a normal vacation. Thought and second thought are necessary if you want to pack a bag that does not contain anything extra but at the same time does not miss out on something essential. While a number of sports and adventure stores do carry stuff that is specially made for adventure travel like clothing, sleeping bags, rucksacks and other accessories, nobody has paid much attention till date to the humble towel which is a necessary part of an adventure traveler's backpack. Till date, campers, bikers and other adventure travelers had to make do with small towels to save on space, but due to their small sizes, these towels could hardly serve any other purpose. The latest offering in the adventure travel market, Lightload Towels are a definite boon for adventure travelers. Let us see how these light load towels provide utility, comfort and convenience to adventurers.

Motorcycling: When you go on motorcycling trips, you generally have to carry a number of clothing items that you cannot do without like jackets and wind cheaters etcetera. If you are planning to hitch tents and camp out, then your luggage increases to double automatically. Most motor bikers do not want to carry their luggage on their backs while traveling because this is not only tiring, it is also pretty tedious. Riding along for long distances with a forty pound backpack is no one's idea of fun, and therefore most bikers try to fit in their luggage into their bike's original and added luggage compartments and satchels.

In such a situation, Lightload Towels are a great help not just because they are lightweight and easy to carry, but because they can serve multiple purposes. Instead of carrying along a coffee strainer, you can use a lightload towel for this purpose. These towels are a considerable defense against the shining sun, cold winds and the bugs that you encounter while biking and camping. In case you need some first aid, then these towels are more absorbent and smaller to pack than gauze.

Mountaineering: When you pack for mountaineering, each and every item that you pack needs to justify its purpose through serving multiple uses. Carrying a heavy load or unnecessary items can mean the difference between life and death in tough mountaineering situations. Lightweight towels are better than any other towels available in the market today for mountaineers because they weigh only half an ounce and take up space equal to that of a hockey puck. Not just this, these towels are extremely versatile and can act as a wind scarf, a fire starter and a first aid supplement. Since these towels take up such a small space, you can carry around a number of them in both sizes?12x 24 inches and 36x60 inches.

Biking: Another adventure sport that involves the packing of multi purpose gear that can endure tough conditions! Taking along Lightload Towels on a biking trip instead of the conventional hand or paper towels will save you from carrying along bulky and heavy luggage on your biking trip. These towels serve multiple purposes and can be used to shield the human body from the hot rays of the sun, the chill of the wind and the small little insects that you encounter on road trips. The best part is that they take up lesser space than even your underwear and your bottle of sunscreen.

Kayaking: Lightload Towels are perfect for taking along on a kayaking trip. Every time you stop, you feel like drying yourself, but a conventional towel can generally take only a limited amount of moisture. After a couple of uses, your towel will not be able to serve its purpose of drying you but may make you even wetter. What is more is that you will have to stuff the same wet towel, which is bulkier and smellier now, into your backpack. Wet towels are not only a great harbor for bacteria, but they can really make your other clothes stink too. Since Lightload Towels dry in a jiffy, you will be always have a dry towel that does not stink or carry bacteria into your back pack. These towels are more absorbent than regular cotton towels and will be able to function much longer on a kayaking trip. The fact that a Lightload Towel weighs all of half an ounce and becomes the size of a hockey puck when folded are added advantages to a kayaker who cannot afford to carry any extra luggage.
