Re: Re: FS: WM Megalite Long Overfilled I'll second that. The overstuff is for sure the way to go. This is the sleeping bag that changed my life! OK, that's a tad dramatic but I do love the thing. |

Re: Re: Titanium Pot (tweeking) The BPL SUL long handled spoon is "the spoon" as far as I am concerned. It's perfect... serves up food like a ladle scouping every drop from a food bag and my knuckles never get food... |

Re: Lost Camper Found Something about that story doesn't ring true to me. I am glad it ended well and the two hikers did a great thing. |

Re: Energy Tea I like teas that have caffeine in them. I have never had Sportea but I have had Yerba Mate. I don't care for the taste and it isn't that caffeinated. I didn't get any "pick me u... |

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Ultralight fire starter I'll remember that next time I burn a 1x1cm square of the stuff. |

Re: Tarp/Bivy advice needed. What dates in August will you be on the JMT, if you don't mind my asking? I say a good bivy is worth it. You'll get a lot of service after the JMT as well. It's a very versatile pi... |

Re: Help Me Find a Tee for Travels My best hiking shirts in this category are my running shirts. They are Coolmax shirts mady by Brooks. The grey ones seem to be the best. The blue and white ones aren't just a different color... |

Re: Re: Groovy-Biotic Cooking You know, this makes me think of the days when I was playing with a solar cooker. I was amazed that I could cook pretty much anything. Up until that point I didn't realize that technically fo... |

Pro-Tick Remedy Pro-Tick I am so glad someone posted a review of this gizmo. First let me say that you can remove a tick with a pair of tweezers. The Pro-Tick Remedy tool is not multi-use like tweezers. That said, it w... |

Repel Lemon Euculyptus Insect Spray I am a huge fan of 3M Ultrathon largely because the stuff works REALLY WELL... for what I use it for. So this is sort of my "gold standard"... encapsulated DEET lotion. That said, differ... |

Mountainsmith Wisp I forget when I bought this. It was on an uber-closeout type deal. This sleeping bag is not made anymore. The facts: - 750+ fill down - Size Long (6' 6") Weight: Says 24 oz, 23 oz in ... |

Martin Backpacker Guitar Now here is a review you don't see every day. This was a very thoughtful gift from my dear wife. I am an avid guitar player but leave my music at home when I hike because a flat-top 6-string ... |

Jetboil Personal Cooking System What's with people that review gear they have never owned nor tested in the field? This is a mystery to me. Anyway, on to the Jetboil. I bought this because... I had an REI dividend and the... |

Patagonia Micro Puff Pullover This was my default insulating layer until I bought the MontBell Down Inner Jacket. This jacket is very warm, as is the vest. I prefer the older models (05 and later) to the newer ones. I recall ... |

WalMart What is there to review? Be careful driving in the parking lot because people seem to switch off their brains when they walk about outside the store. Seriously, they take anything back and there a... |

Recreational Equipment, Inc. (REI) ...and they really mean it. I have seen people hopelessly abuse the return policy but REI stands by it. The prices are fair, especially if you use an REI Gold Visa. The dividend makes for a nice gi... |

Therm-A-Rest Lite Seat Works great and is light but very comfortable. It takes quite a beating and will eventually get a hole in it. I have had to make two repairs to mine. I use it to extend my sleeping pad setup when I... |
