Biogradable, pocket-size towel is a traveler's
survival tool
Jamaica, NY - After thousands of years of "regular" towel use, Lightload
Towels presents a towel that functions as a real survival tool. The
multi-purpose towel that will fit in your pocket and leave room for keys and
pocket change is quickly becoming a must-have item in every outdoorsman's
survival kit as summer approaches.
The eco-friendly, biodegradable towel is essential for any survival kit due
to its many uses, which range from functioning as a coffee filter, fire starter,
emergency signaling flag, blanket, warming scarf, or as a good old fashioned
towel. Unlike the traditional towel, the Lightload Towel absorbs nine times its
weight in water and is equivalent in size to two normal-sized towels.
In addition to being the only survival tool of its kind, the Lightload Towels
beach towel is a must for every surfer who enjoys a super-absorbent,
pocket-sized towel during an active day at the beach. Lightload Towels is the
only beach towel that can fit in your pocket with room to spare.
The waterproof packaging can also be used for entertainment purposes during a
rainy day indoors, either as a checkers piece or a hockey puck. The towels are
reusable, but will not harm the environment once disposed because of their
biodegradable material.

About the Founder:
The brain behind Lightload Towels is George "Wideload" Wheeler, an avid long
distance hiker who completed the 2160-mile Appalachian Trail in 1999. The year
after, he hiked the 540 miles of Virginia to West Virginia on the same trail.
"As an outdoorsman who loves hiking and camping in the wild, I realized the
necessity of an easily-portable, space-saving, multi-purpose towel that would be
eco-friendly," said Wheeler. "It's essential to any first-aid kit and is great
to have handy whether you are hunting and fishing or just playing golf."
Wheeler spent eight years living in Asia, where he took and led hikes in
Taiwan, Nepal, Pakistan and China. During this time he also learned how to speak
Chinese. Moreover, Wheeler has hiked and camped in many of America's national
forests including the Ochoco and Willamette in Oregon, Davy Crockett in Texas,
San Francisco in New Mexico, Piedmont in Alabama, Desoto in Mississippi,
Allegheny in Pennsylvania, and the Green Mountain in Vermont.
