Re: Nov. trip ideas - N. Mex. or Colorado That could certainly work too. Personally, I'd try to work South Fork Whitewater Creek Trail into the trip. It traverses arguably the most impressive gorge in the Gila Wilderness, shy of the Mi... |

GRAY Loop This GRAY Loop thing ("R" is for Realism?) sure sounds like fun. And by fun, I'm of course referring mostly to emotions entertained during the planning stages and while reminiscing. ... |

Re: "Nov. trip ideas - N. Mex. or Colorado" How about hiking a loop from the Catwalk Trailhead: Whitewater Creek Trail - South Fork Whitewater Creek Trail - Holt-Apache Trail - Deloche Trail - Whitewater Creek Trail. This would be und... |

Re: Nov. trip ideas - N. Mex. or Colorado Keep in mind that the main access road to the Mogollon Mountain high country (Bursum Road) will be closing for the season in another week or so. I believe they gate the road around the Redstone Par... |

Re: Filter The funnel should retain a brim, though, so poured water can settle slowly through the strainer. |

Anti Floaties You know, a Platypus-specific, threaded funnel wouldn't be a half bad offering. That way you could also dip the bottle into streams or skim it through the cow tanks and come up clear, skipping ... |

Re: Re: GWT/GET In terms of section hiking, the GET should be doable westbound starting late May at ABQ, which is around the time eastbound thru-hikers finish up there. Heat and sun will be issues, certainly, but ... |

Re: Re: Re: Re: Tucson Temps in March Yup - I think Reavis Creek is the only sure bet between Superior and Roosevelt right now, or Superior and Charlebois Spring for GET'ers. I hear Rogers and Reavis canyons (not Reavis Creek) are ... |

Re: Re: Tucson Temps in March Mike - was the Trans-Supes trip this November? What water did you find? GET'ers and AZT'ers are all ears! |

Re: Re: Tucson Temps in March Biggest concern next spring will be water availability, unless it's a wet winter. Deficits are running high now. Water below the Rim can be just as fickle as elsewhere, at least when trying to ... |

Outdoor Research Sun Runner Cap The fact that the cape is entirely removable, rendering a standard ball cap, is both a boon and bane. The cap alone, with its hip, curved brim and streamlined look, passes the urban street test, w... |

Montbell Super Stretch Down Hugger #3 My new 2007 model 800-fill bag failed bigtime in the warmth department. Even with ample layering, pad, and use inside a tent, I couldn't seem to shake off annoying cold spots and a palpable sense ... |

Light My Fire Spork Other reviewers have covered the LMF Spork's merits. And while I certainly agree, there's just no getting around the fact that mine broke into two pieces after just two days of use. Inevitably... |

Granite Gear Vapor Trail This one doesn't quite reach cruising altitude for me. To begin with, the Vapor Trail's extension collar is unfathomably tall, and doesn't lend much functionality to this pack, but serves primarily... |

Six Moon Designs Lunar Solo In regard to the above comment: >>"It is a pain to get this set up to look like the website, particularly on uneven or non-level ground. While looks may not be important, getting enough head room fo... |

Wigwam Gobi liner socks Once upon a time a very capable standalone sock for warm weather thru-hiking, these familiar polypro liners now seem to fall under the same heading as PowerGel and moist towelettes - single use only. ... |

GoLite Infinity Make no mistake. This pack has a lot going for it. As others have pointed out, its 3000 ci capacity is just about perfect for thru-hiking ultralighters. In terms of organizational ability it is fe... |

Salomon XA Comp 2 I've enjoyed the weight, stability, and fit of the Salomon trail runners for years. Unfortunately the XA Comp seems to have devolved in recent times from a comfortable and durable product to one with ... |
