Re: Platypus Bottles May Fit Sawyer Now That's good news, I've been wanting to get a Sawyer filter for a while but was leery because I've got a couple of Platypus bladders that I'd still like to use. I'm less interest... |

Re: backpack with unobtrusive bottom panel? I believe Mountain Laurel Designs packs have cords on the bottom that allow to bottom to be compressed. The Golite Jam used to have a similar feature too. I've got an old Mountainsmith that has... |

Re: Patagonia M 10 I'm with Samuel, I've never paid full price for any of my Patagonia stuff. Just wait for the biannual 50% off sale. Also, can someone explain the whole Patagucci thing to me? Even at regula... |

Re: Driducks vs separates I bought a pair of Driducks a few years ago and use it as my rain jacket and wind shirt on most 3 season trips. It's worked well for me, the biggest issue is durability. Mine has a couple of du... |

Re: Midwest Trail Suggestions I can't speak to any of the other trails, but I've built, maintained, (and even hiked!) on most of the sections of the Ozark Trail. There's a number of options for good week-long trips ... |

Re: this? Most point and shoots have a macro mode, and it looks like that camera is no exception. Don't let the big, complicated exterior fool you though, that camera has the same tiny sensor as every ot... |

Re: Is it worth it? As long as you stay away from the lowest end Nikon bodies (D3200, D5200, etc) your current lenses will work just as they did on your N70 but the FOV will be different. I've got a D300 that'... |

Re: It's recreation, and nobody is keeping score --There are no scores kept, and no prizes awarded. -- Well if there's no way to show that I'm better than someone else I quit. I was under the impression I'd get some sort of "1... |

Re: Choosing a pad. Max, I did the opposite. I started with Thermarest I mentioned above (a 3/4 length pad). Then moved to a Gossamer Gear torso pad and long Thinlight, then to a torso length Ridgerest. Then my wife b... |

Melanzana micro grid hoody Let me just echo everything the previous reviewer said. The fit is great, not tight and not baggy, the sleeves are just the right length, and the pocket is useful. As for the hood, I was a little s... |

BPL FireLite Mini Firestarter I keep this around my neck with some other "just in case" items. I too have a little bit of a hard time getting it to work consistently and use matches as my primary means of fire starting. ... |

Gossamer Gear ThinLight insulation pad 1/8" approx. 2 oz. I've been using my GG 1/8" Thinlight both to supplement my GG Nightlight Torso and as a sit pad. Its great with the torso pad to insulate your legs on colder nights. It provides some addi... |

Petzl e+LITE Like Craig, I don't use a light that much, mostly just for chores around camp that I can't preform with only moonlight. As such I was tired of lugging around my "heavy" 3 oz PT Auror... |

Gossamer Gear G6 Whisper One more person to note how fragile it seems. I've got a spinnaker tarp and groundsheet, so I was aware how fragile it seemed but I always feel a little wary when I sit this pack down. So far I ha... |

Gossamer Gear I placed my first order from Gossamer Gear, a Nightlight Torso and Lighten Up! DVD last Wednesday. I received my first order from GG last Saturday. Now that's fast! As for their products, they se... |

Gossamer Gear Nightlight Torso I just received my Nightlight torso and these are merely my initial observations. It is REALLY light, mine weighs 3.6 oz. I bought it to replace an older Thermarest pad that weighed about 26 oz and t... |

Lighten Up DVD with Glen Van Peski . For only $5 this DVD has a lot to offer. I began converting to UL backpacking awhile ago, but reading books and advice on the forums just isn't quite the same as seeing it in action. I'm a v... |

Princeton Tech Aurora I picked up the PT Aurora 4 or so years ago when I was starting to get into backpacking. I looked at a few different headlamps, but at the time this seemed like the best value. Since then it has b... |

Tealight stove Tealight After not getting great results with other alcohol stoves on my SP 700 I decided to try out the tealight stove. Nothing could be easier to 'make.' Just find an extra tealight laying around th... |
