Why do women prefer a tent? "I'm buying Kathleen's old one for my lady." Hah! Roger - I had originally bought that bug net to go with the Gatewood and possibly even a "real" tarp down the road.... |

Why do women prefer a tent? I won't be using my bug tent. I just sold it! My plan is to use the Gatewood in the winter, because it's floorless, and I can dig down a foot for insulation. Plus, with snow there's n... |

Golite Paradox pants I'm not sure whether to review these in raingear or softshell clothing, because they're both. They are all-day pants, rather than rain pants to pull on over hiking pants and are made of a fab... |
