Problems with bites... Ben, I think certain people must not be liked by the mosquitos. My wife has to reapply with TONS of DEET all day long and still gets bit. I barely put any on and rarely get bit. |

Logical fallacy... This will be the first time I have ever "engaged" myself in one of these posting debates. I'm a lover, not a fighter, and I don't like the thought of people on the board thinking... |

.... Get the MB Alpine Jacket maybe? I talked to Kyle at Prolite and he said the Alpine in women's is a whole lot puffier than the Alpine Light. |

Adventure Racing info... The thought of adventure racing intrigues me... I'd like to set a goal (a ways off from now) to do one, or many. Has anyone read "The Complete Guide to Adventure Racing"? Any book... |

Umbrella.... I bought the LightTrek with the chrome top a month or so ago and took it on my first trip. I also brought my SilCape poncho because I wasn't sure how the umbrella would do. While it was nice ... |

Loft on the Women's Alpine Light jacket... I have the UL Down Inner and the Alpine Light jacket. I wanted to get my wife a jacket that had about the same amount of loft as the Alpine Light (she gets cold!), so I got her the Women's. ... |

Daughter names... I want to name my daughter Denali. I've talked to the wife about it, and she seemed semi-OK with it. I don't know if she realizes I'm serious though. |

Mountain Laurel Designs Superlight My bivy comes in at 6.3 ounces after removing the bungee that can be tied to the top of your tarp (to keep the fabric off your face). I was holding out forever for a Side Zip Vapr bivy, but after w... |

GoLite Jam2 What I like: 1) The shape of the shoulder straps fit me well, I never have to use the sternum strap (I removed it). The padding on the shoulders is very plush as well. 2) The very wide fabric c... |

Golite Ultra 20 I should preface that I am no quilt connoisseur. The only other quilts I've tried were a Jacks R' Better and an MLD quilt. (Both great products, just not what I was looking for). My size ... |

Montbell UL Down Inner Jacket I love this jacket. My size large weighs in at 7.2 ounces. So far I haven't noticed any real down leakage. It is so light that when I toss it it "floats". It also packs nice and smal... |

REI Lite-Core Short I've gone back to using this pad after trying closed-cell foam pads only. Things I like: - It is fairly comfortable with 1.5" of foam. The comfort level for me rises dramatically bet... |

Pro Lite Gear customer service I have now made quite enough orders with ProLite gear to hope that they carry everything I will ever need - I don't want to order from other companies! I have never spoken with them directly or v... |
