Re: Do you love your mug? I've got a Snow Peak 450 single wall. It's about 15 fluid ounces, so within your capacity range, and has the folding handles. It's listed diameter is 3.5", so pretty close to the... |

Re: Creepy site >Now this is a site that I was happier not knowing about despite the Patagonia deals. Nothing to be creeped out about. I know a few folks who are regulars from diamondback tactical. They... |

Re: Re: Chiggers = Rite of Passage True, but I didn't see any need to get into all that ;) Tom |

Maybe it's me... Maybe it's me, but all the soft shells seem to do is muddy the water for the new backpacker. I decided a while back to just skip them and layer. Mostly because the clothing for backpacking is... |

Golite Jam I bought my GoLite Jam on closeout, since I was gearing up completely and needed to save money where I could. However, after trying the pack out, I have to say it was money well spent. I currently r... |

Petzl e+LITE I got caught out past dark, and my e+Light really saved my butt. On maximum, it was enough to help me find my way for the next couple of miles to get to camp, and help me set up. I didn't notice... |
