German UL Meeting Impressions and LAUFBURSCHE Keynote

Posted on 19 November 2013

Again we met for our UL community meeting on scout campsite in the Brexbachtal. It is an really nice campsite, but most of the time when we are there it is really wet. But this is no problem for our outdoor-tested community. This year again many of our members followed the invitation to the valley. Here are some impressions our our meeting in late October.

In the afternoon there was a very special event. Mateusz the owner of LAUFBURSCHE Gear made a keynote to present four completly new and redesigned packs for 2014. All packs are recyclable and made with this fantastic paper bags. No this was a joke. We were only allowed to make photos of  the covered packs to obtain the voltage. So be patient and check out LAUFBURSCHE-Gear or the LAUFBURSCHE Facebook Fanpage to get the newest infos of these packs.

Waiting for the presentation

I know how they look like 🙂

After this keynote we made a Secret Santa. Everyone who took part put a piece of gear of a certain value into a bag. Most of these Secret Santa’s were new stuff like knives, titanium goodies, waterproof socks etc. Only one member put some rubbish into this pack. Bad guy!!!

During the afternoon the sun came out and we used the good weather conditions for a walk and photo shots of the area around our campsite.

Beautiful mushroom, but TOXIC.

EOE Lithium 44g gas stove.

In the evening we made another great event. We had to guess  the weight of a prototype titanium bottle. The one who guessed the right weight got this bottle for present. During the evening we sat at the fire and had very interesting conversations and at midnight we started out traditional cooking orgy. This time we had three big batches of apple puree.
