Re: Hmm..
Actually, nothing wrong with selling at a steep discount -- if all you want is to help out a fellow hiker. As for EBay -- I think just like with killer bears in the backcountry and terrorists in...

Re: Price Drop!
Not saying it won't sell, but this is an ultralight forum.... Have you tried Ebay? Bet there are a lot more campers and trad. hikers over there -- and Kelty is a well-known brand for trad. ...

Re: "The "I don't get it" thread"
Two things I don't get.... 1. This need to compare with others. Don't get me wrong, I value other hikers' opinion and experience. But at the end, it's whatever works for me. ...

Why Do Little Things Bother People? Now You know.

Big Sky Ultra C Aluminum Tent Stakes
I've been using titanium shepherd hook stakes for years now -- loving their ultralight weight but disappointed with their suboptimal ground penetration and holding power. These stakes can be bent...

Titanium Goat Adjustable CF Trekking Poles
I received my pair and went on a moderate 2-hour hike today (approx. 2,000 ft. elevation gain over 2.7 miles -- then returning back down). I find the specs to be accurate, and the poles a beauty to...

Micropur MP 1 Chlorine Dioxide Water Purifier Tablet
Comparison to Potable Aqua above is incorrect. For bacteria and viruses, Micropur is just as effective and easy to use (15 minutes treatment time). It is only for protozoa (e.g. cryptosporidium) t...
