Re: Vasque Catalyst Shoe The catalyst that I have is an approach shoe with 5.10 climbing rubber, is that the one you are looking at? If so, it's too flexible for bp'ing in my opinion, on a 3 day trip the bottoms ... |

Six moon suspension As my quest for the perfect UL pack (for me) continues, I have been reading up on the Six Moon Designs packs. I am having trouble picturing the adjustable suspension however, so if anybody has a c... |

Six Moon Designs Comet I have used this pack a total of 17 days this summer, including 15 on a thru-hike of the Tahoe Rim Trail. The pack volume and design suit my needs perfectly for carrying up to 5 days worth of food,... |

Titanium Goat Basic Bivy This review is for the large bivy with the old-style bug headnet (a mesh headnet bag sewn across the chest, pulled over the head, under the bivy). This is the best value hands down in water resista... |
