Sure you're not a tree hugger? Every time you pack your trash out when camping, fishing or hunting, you're being a tree hugger. Its showing respect, plain and simple, by leaving things as good, if not better, than the way you found them. Any tenderfoot should know that and it shouldn't take an ex-Eagle saying it again. (I know you're far more experienced in the wilderness than any tenderfoot, so I'm not trying to take a shot at you.) Likewise taking yourself off the grid and using something that's sustainable & showing some real energy independence, &c. is what "tree-hugging's" about. Setting the "tree-hugger" label aside, isn't it the idea that counts in the end?
