Re: Neo Air Seat as Pillow Michael... Although not answering your actual question, you might consider using the FlexAir Ultralight pillow (0.56oz) sold here on BPL. I didn't particularly like using this pillow until I tr... |

Re: Nunatak Weights Mine seems to be nearly spot on. Custom 6'1" Arc Specialist with 1oz overfill and 0.8 Pertex inside and out weighs right on 17oz. Although it's a fairly new item for me I'm really ... |

Re: Neoair & pillow I, like Monty used a Flex Air pillow on top of the NeoAir. It didn't seem to move at all the entire time I was laying on it, in fact even I stayed in the same position on my side the entire nig... |

Re: Anyone own a ULA Catalyst backpack? Matt... If you're seriously interested in the Catalyst I'd suggest that you order it from Brian. If it's not all that you thought it would be you can send it back. The only thing that i... |

Warbonnet BlackBird I've used several hammocks and always had the feeling, "if only it had". Then I bought a Warbonnet BlackBird. The hammock was designed by, and is hand built by, a long time hammocker and... |

Montbell UL Down Inner Parka This is a perfect jacket, but the parka hood made me drop my score from a 5(+) to a 4. At 7.5oz for a Large, it's the lightest jacket I own, by far. Packs up smaller than a softball. Perfect over... |

Montbell U.L. 90 Sleeping Pad U.L. 90 I bought the 90 to use in conjunction with the MB pillow to make what amounts to a 3/4 mat. When I use it in shoulder seasons and into winter, I add a GG Nightlight Torso to the bottom end by punching... |

Titanium Goat Adjustable CF Trekking Poles I waited until after I completed my thru hike of the Long Trail to post this review. I wanted to take them through the wringer that this trail provides and see how they faired…the answer was varied. S... |
