Mountain Laurel Designs Grace Solo
Does anybody have any experience with the Grace Solo .97 Spinntex? Things like useable space, ease of pitch etc. MLD seems to make a good tarp, so I don't think durability is an issue...

This was my upgrade from my first tent that I used (Kelty Zen) and I must say it was a great switch. I've used it a few times solo which makes it seem just enormous, and even when shared with my g...

REI Traverse Anti-Shock
Not a bad price for a decently made trekking pole, however I'm just not a fan of any Anti-shock trekking poles that I've tried. The foam grip feels great in my hands and the strap is very comf...
