Oh, OK, fine, I'm in. Moving from the MSR Sweetwater - mostly due to the quality of its filter and small pore size - the Sawyer Squeeze has been a godsend. I've rigged it up with a single 1.5L Evernew dirty reservoi... |

Re: RE: Punk Rock Lovin Ultralighters Just because we started digitizing all our vinyl this year, I noticed this thread today as we were listening to the Buzzcocks, the Damned, the Stranglers, and so forth! Certainly we cut out teeth o... |

Gossamer Gear Polycryo Ground Cloth(medium) I've used one for three years and it's still totally usable; the 2nd one that came in my original order is probably not gonna need to be used for another season. Crinkly in the wind, but for t... |

Inov8 Flyroc 310 My feet have changed a lot in the last several years of road running, trail running, and backpacking. I went from boots to New Balance 907's with Superfeet inserts, then the 907's with stock i... |

Probar Energy Bar If you don't make your own bar-like foods, this is the next best thing. ProBars, in all flavors, are the Jaguar X8 of food bars. They're dense, super tasty, and pretty expensive. If you mix, s... |

Integral Designs eVENT Rain Jacket Gotta heap yet more praise upon the ID eVent Rain Jacket. It gets a 4 because it's not the lightest thing around, but I've worn it through rainy California winters and even deep in a rainfores... |
