I can tell you that when such unsteady souls do manage to reach the upper headwalls — typically after three or four days of continuous upward toil and terror and wild, screaming fun, living in filth on canned chili and candy bars — they have been known to drop daypacks full of mission-critical equipment and watch in horror as those daypacks free-fall through space for thousands of feet toward pine trees so far below they look like miniature shrubs in a model railroad diorama.

Under the shade of ponderosa pines and Douglas firs, we laid out our rain jackets like blankets and fished snacks out of our daypacks and turned over fossils, wondering what otherworldly beings had been there before us.

Jimmy Kimmel conned an unsuspecting bunch of tourists into waltzing into the Dolby Theatre in their comfy sneakers and daypacks, right in front of the very stars they idolize enough to ride around on a bus all day looking for them. Ouch.

In America (though not in the UK), some states, such as Alabama and Arkansas, require upland hunters to wear blaze orange clothing for safety. They often wear vests to carry game, though there is a recent trend toward more functional technical daypacks specifically designed for the demands of more rigorous upland hunting in remote areas.

By 1979 soft-sided Cordura luggage had captured about 40 percent of the luggage market. Several classic brands that remain popular today continue to use Cordura fabric in their products. Eastpak was the first brand to use Cordura fabric in their packs, while JanSport used the canvas-like nylon in their original daypacks in the 1970s and uses polyester cordura today. No Jansport bags are made with nylon today.

The Westweg is a part of the European Long-distance Trail E1 (North Cape, Norway - Sicily) The route passes through or near numerous villages or small towns, so there is no difficulty in finding overnight accommodation and meals along the route. It would actually require more planning to walk it while staying in youth hostel- type accommodation, or camping. There are a number of services that will transport your luggage to the next accommodation by vehicle, leaving the hikers with only their daypacks for the hike. The route can be accessed at several places along its length by road or public transport, so it is easy to walk part of it or to do day walks along its route.
