Re: Floor or Floor and bug net

Lost Creek: Lost Park-McCurdy-Bison Loop
This was right after snow melt so don't count on it but maybe it will save you hauling 8 pounds of water next time. Good thinking, Luke. Taking water from either the McCurdy Creek or Sand Cr...

Re: Lost Creek: Lost Park-McCurdy-Bison Loop

Re: Re: Tent Design
What I don't like is ANY design which has a long or wide flat surface on top. It is going to be bad news in bad weather. Low ends are also bad, as is a lack of ventilation ... Agreed. So ...

Montbell U.L.AlpineBurrow Bag #3 Long

Rocky Rocky GTX Socks
Mine fit well. Size 10 slips right over a thin pair of wool socks and my size 9.5 feet. They are comfortable inside my trail runners and do what they claim to do--keep my feet warm and dry in wet, col...

Lighten Up! by Don Ladigin
