Sources for other food That's good to know. I too have tried to find 3 oz packages of chicken with no luck. I'll look a little more kindly on the cans and try one. Speaking of food sources, where can I find ... |

Calling Sarah for the world's best recipe When I plan backpacking menus, they're sorted into 2 categories: nacho taters and everything else. If you do a search for "nacho taters" and "curried chicken cranberry cousco... |

Why the Exodus I don't like to own a wardrobe of packs, so I have just 2 - a daypack and an all-season backpack. I love my Circuit, but I bought it about 3 years ago before it came in a small, which I really... |

MLD Prophet vs. Exodus I just got my Exodus (size small) on Saturday. With the pockets and sternum strap it weighs in at 16 oz on the nose. The bottom of the pack has a nifty feature to compress it. I found out about ... |

Point6 Merino This is almost good news. If they had merino tops, it would be great news. I was comparing my ancient, tattered smartwool light top yesterday with the replacement smartwool one I got with my ... |

PCT in Winter You need to consider the avalanche danger, too. Mr. B and I hike year-round in the Cascades in Washington, frequently on or near the PCT. We've had several avalanche courses, carry beacons, p... |

Ideas for vegetarian no cook lunches Along the lines of what Sarah said, check out Dicentra's website onepanwonders.com and click on the salads link in the recipes section. They are excellent. I just polished off the Chickpea Sa... |

Botach Tactical Customer Service I had a similar experience to David's. They sent the inferior space blankets, rather than the correct order, took forever to send a return UPS shipping label, and only yesterday admitted to recei... |

Boomer's Guide to Lightweight Backpacking by Carol Corbridge I was very disappointed in this book. Luckily, I didn't buy it but had checked it out from the library. For starters, the book is in major need of copy editing. There are lots of awkward sent... |

Backpacking Light Merino UL Pants These do everything BPL promised - provide comfortable warmth without being bulky. I've worn them under non-winter hiking pants all winter, and they've extended the comfort range down to 7 de... |

Hikelight.com Company I just discovered this website that is based in Oregon. It seems to be a distributor of some of our favorite brands - SixMoonDesigns, Tarptent, Montbell, GraniteGear, and Western Mountaineering. No ... |

HarmonyHouseFoods.com vegetables and beans I just received my second order of dehydrated food from Harmony House. First I bought the vegetable pantry stuffer - 16 different quart-sized containers of various dehydrated vegetables, and then a we... |

Golite Paradox pants I'm not sure whether to review these in raingear or softshell clothing, because they're both. They are all-day pants, rather than rain pants to pull on over hiking pants and are made of a fab... |
