A solitaire Backgammon variant designed for backpackers that uses six counters, a standard six-sided die, and a board of seven lines. The board can be drawn on paper, and the counters can be coins, buttons, or whatever is handy.

The pieces start on the rightmost line.

Roll the die and move a counter forward exactly the number rolled. If you can't move, return one counter to start (or, for the "power" variant, lose the game).

The object is to move all the pieces to the leftmost line.
