My Locale Boulder, CO
About Me I started backpacking as a teenager in southern appalachia. My summers in college were spent in mountain heaven, glacier national park. Since then, I've lived and played in the high sierras, the cascades, and now the colorado front range. Walking in the mountains with a light pack never seems to lose its charm. I recently picked up a bad habit called climbing.

petzl nao first impressions
This is not exactly a UL item, but as a chronic night hiker, climber, skier etc. (not always on purpose) I took immediate interest from all the winter OR hype. My schedule often has me leaving ...

wraith is nice
Everyone seems to love the houdini, so there is probably something to that. I recently got the wraith for $40. I'm definitely impressed with the breathability. I like the simplicity of it, and ...

DriClime vs. Powerdry
I'm pretty convinced that marmot driclime is magic. It must be the "magic-like bi component wicking" material. I think this material would be perfect as a wicking midlayer under a wat...
