Re: Re: What music do you like? Hmm... depends on my mood. Bands I like almost any time include Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rush, Foo Fighters, and old (pre-And Justice For All) Metallica. I usually go through periods where I get reall... |

Re: Stuff Sacks- overkill? I use one for my quilt/sleeping socks and one for my food. I also keep all of my misc. gear in a small mesh sack that came with my SP pot. That bag holds my raccoon bag rope (GG EZC), Dr. Bronners,... |

Re: Smaller Volume ULA pack survey... I kicked myself hard the day I saw the Relay was no longer for sale. It had the potential to be the perfect trail builder/maintainers daypack. The Burn looks like it would be a suitable alternative... |

Re: MYOG: Modify Your Own Gear (BPL Hoody) That green stitching looks sweet! +1 for black hiking clothes too. Though I've got about equal amounts of black and light gray. And one orange Smartwool shirt that was too cheap to pass up :... |

Re: had worst My advice is to buy a full length (72") Ridegerest and cut it in half. Then you get two torso pads that can be put together for really cold nights when you need full length insulation. Plus in... |

Re: Who is your daddy and what does he do? Wow, I see a lot of you are retired or on the verge... I, on the other hand, am trying to break into the workforce. I just graduated with a B.S. and haven't been able to nail down a job in my f... |

Re: Groupthink at camp MYOG. I'm just a gear tinkerer as well. I don't make my own gear as a creative outlet or to advance backpacking gear to the next level. I modify the gear I have or use available designs to make m... |

Re: All Your Apps Are Belong to Us I don't even care what this discussion is about, the title of Nate's response gets an automatic five stars from me. Somebody set up us the bomb. For great justice, Adam |

Re: Re: Well, it seemed like a good idea... Hmm... the first thing that pops into my head is poncho-tarp. I made one and it worked ok in poncho mode and was a little cramped as a tarp. I never felt like there was adequate coverage in tarp mo... |

Re: Pretty Funny I somehow missed this when it was posted. Now that I've seen it, I just want to send my condolences out to that poor, poor Tarptent. The travesty of his pitch is something that will haunt me wh... |

Melanzana micro grid hoody Let me just echo everything the previous reviewer said. The fit is great, not tight and not baggy, the sleeves are just the right length, and the pocket is useful. As for the hood, I was a little s... |

BPL FireLite Mini Firestarter I keep this around my neck with some other "just in case" items. I too have a little bit of a hard time getting it to work consistently and use matches as my primary means of fire starting. ... |

Gossamer Gear ThinLight insulation pad 1/8" approx. 2 oz. I've been using my GG 1/8" Thinlight both to supplement my GG Nightlight Torso and as a sit pad. Its great with the torso pad to insulate your legs on colder nights. It provides some addi... |

Petzl e+LITE Like Craig, I don't use a light that much, mostly just for chores around camp that I can't preform with only moonlight. As such I was tired of lugging around my "heavy" 3 oz PT Auror... |

Gossamer Gear G6 Whisper One more person to note how fragile it seems. I've got a spinnaker tarp and groundsheet, so I was aware how fragile it seemed but I always feel a little wary when I sit this pack down. So far I ha... |

Gossamer Gear I placed my first order from Gossamer Gear, a Nightlight Torso and Lighten Up! DVD last Wednesday. I received my first order from GG last Saturday. Now that's fast! As for their products, they se... |

Gossamer Gear Nightlight Torso I just received my Nightlight torso and these are merely my initial observations. It is REALLY light, mine weighs 3.6 oz. I bought it to replace an older Thermarest pad that weighed about 26 oz and t... |

Lighten Up DVD with Glen Van Peski . For only $5 this DVD has a lot to offer. I began converting to UL backpacking awhile ago, but reading books and advice on the forums just isn't quite the same as seeing it in action. I'm a v... |

Princeton Tech Aurora I picked up the PT Aurora 4 or so years ago when I was starting to get into backpacking. I looked at a few different headlamps, but at the time this seemed like the best value. Since then it has b... |

Tealight stove Tealight After not getting great results with other alcohol stoves on my SP 700 I decided to try out the tealight stove. Nothing could be easier to 'make.' Just find an extra tealight laying around th... |
