Re: Re: scheduling 21st is good for me, pretty flexible though- the later half would probably be better than the first half given a choice 3 day, 2 night would be good for me as I'd have nearly a day drive the... |

Re: light lights I use a H31 as my Steripen is also cr123, it's a workhouse lamp that I'm very comfortable hiking/running at night, multiple settings lets you dial in the just right amount of light from rea... |

R ^ sounds very plausible, but I'd certainly want more then R2.5 for temps approaching 15F, my neoair is about at it's max at or a little below freezing and it's R3.2 |

Re: Re: Re: re: MT winter rendezvous sounds good :) March is usually when cabin fever hits me the hardest, this would be a fun reprieve |

poke in the eye well we can keep poking each other in the eye on this obviously sensitive issue or take a step back and see if there is some common ground clearly we don't do a very good job with dealing wi... |

Re: Layering down equipment. I think Konrads point is that it's usually never a perfect environment and that one or more garments/bags is not at full loft and somewhat compressed, so you might want to use the a+b+c as an i... |

Re: re: MT winter rendezvous I'm little shaky on skis, feel more comfy on shoes but would be willing to give it a go if that's what folks would rather do if I go I'd be driving through Bozeman, so I could pick u... |

rendezvous Dave- I'd definitely be interested in a 2 or 3 day trip. Would prefer a trip sans ice axe/crampons if possible :) I haven't spent any time in the Scapegoat so that would definitely be a n... |

Petzl e+LITE I thought I had added my review earlier on this lamp, but hadn't :) I've been very impressed w/ this diminutive lamp- if you're looking for a lamp for hours of night travel- this isn'... |

Black Diamond Carbon Cork @ 16 oz (pair) these are certainly heavier than some of the UL offerings, but still relatively light the FlickLock is about as solid of a adjustment as I've seen for trekking poles- I'm sur... |

ULA Ohm not sure why it's listed with the frameless packs, while not a robust frame- the carbon fiber/derlin frame is certainly a frame and definitely helps w/ the load capacity of this pack anywho- th... |

Montrail Sabino Trail My first pair are over a year old now w/ ~ 500 backpacking/trail running miles- there is some light fraying here and there, but overall are still in very good condition. I've never had a hot spot... |

Dirty Girl Gaiters I'd probably go 4.5 just because of the needed velcro, but I like these enough I wanted to round up. They are breathable, they are light and they do a great job of keeping stuff out of your sho... |

Osprey Talon 22 The Talon is a very full featured pack, that carries like a dream (w/ reasonable loads). I use it for snowshoeing day trips and it swallows up the gear- shovel, bivy, down parka, etc I love the be... |

Wet Fire Fire Starting Tinder I'm a little redundant w/ fire starting stuff (boy scout in me I guess)- the wetfire tinders are my "if I absolutely need to start a fire" tinder. they will even burn in water or on sno... |

Smartwool Beanie my Smartwool beanie makes into both my day pack and multi-day trips, light weight, warm, takes up almost no space- I don't go anywhere w/o it going on two years and it still looks/fits great |
