Friend of mine got giardiasis backpacking on the East side (cottonwppd pass TH trip) in August. May be rare but it happens. She said it was great for weight loss....

Hey, SierraNevada, I grew up as an eastern sierra backpacker on this site, so no surprise that I drank the kool-aid, so to speak...meaning that my practices have often developed from the good info shared by you and others,
