Re: Re: 2 people and a dog? Yes- and I didn't mention that I'm in the Seattle area. My normal conditions are very wet. Not the humidity of the East, but constant rain, drizzle, sprinkles, slush, and snow. I love my... |

Re: Re: Re: double wall for the masses It depends a little on if you'd like the dog inside the tent or in a vestibule. With backpacking tents, the floors can be damaged from claws. A lot of folks will put a small pad in the vestib... |

Backpacking Light Firelite SUL-500 Cookpot I've found this mug to be well-sized for solo trips and after a lot of field use, it's proven to be very durable. My first gen pot came with the sloppy lid but BPL was very quick to replace... |

Golite Sun Dragon shoes I just got off 3 days of backpacking on the Olympic Coast with these shoes and I love them! In my size 11-11.5 they weight 14.9 oz (compared to 13.1 oz for my Inov8 FlyRoc 310s). That's pretty... |
