Integral Designs = Rab? Look at the new Integral Designs tents and bivies, then look at the new Rab tents and bivies, and they appear to be identical. Anybody know what's going on? |

Re: BPL Cocoon Clothing and UL 240 Quilt - 20%, 30%, 40%... I also have a sizing question, this time on the cocoon pants: I normally wear a 32" waist and 34" inseam pant - which size will work for me, if any? I assume I could take up some slack wi... |

Thanks Thanks everybody for your replies. I looked up Camelbak elixir, and it appears it just doesn't contain any sugars, so it doesn't give anything to microbes to eat and proliferate inside a wa... |

Re: Re: Keeping bottles clean with energy drinks? Thanks Tom, What's your technique to clean the wide-mouth bottle? Do you wipe it out, rinse, use an iodine or chlorine tablet? |

Six Moon Designs Comet I have used this pack a total of 17 days this summer, including 15 on a thru-hike of the Tahoe Rim Trail. The pack volume and design suit my needs perfectly for carrying up to 5 days worth of food,... |

Titanium Goat Basic Bivy This review is for the large bivy with the old-style bug headnet (a mesh headnet bag sewn across the chest, pulled over the head, under the bivy). This is the best value hands down in water resista... |

Mountain Hardwear Phantom 32 F, 800 down The phantom 32 was my first light-weight item, and is still my favorite. Loft is great, the hood fits great, and there is enough room for me to add a down jacket or vest. The one downside is the .85 ... |
