Wow... That is surprising. Are the Capilene 2's that much thicker and warmer than the 1's? |

Weight of Capilene 2 bottoms Patagonia's site lists both the Capilene 1 and 2 as both weighing 5.5oz which is obviously wrong. Can anyone tell me the weight of the Capilene 2 in size large? |

MB products... The MB products are the one's I've specifically had trouble with. While talking on the phone to one of the sales people, he said with my build, there might be nothing MB makes that would f... |

Socks... Yes, you could bring a pair of socks, but a nice thick pair of wool socks can be as heavy as 4 oz. Using a layer of XP insulation would give you more loft, more warmth, more compressibility in you... |

How long of a hike have you used the Revelation or Whisper for? I'm jumping ahead of myself, because I can't afford a new pack right now, but... after I decide for certain on a quilt, my last "heavy" item is my Jam2. The Revelation would be m... |

Good choice... For a slightly taller-than-normal dude, I thank you for offering extra long options for your gear! |

My spreadsheet.... I spent quite a bit of time making mine in Excel 2007. It shows you the group-weights of your sleep system, shelter system, Cooking, etc, and also gives you a total weight in ounces and then conve... |

Fabric for "toe cozies" I want to make some simple "toe cozies" like Bill has. Can I just use RipStop Nylon since they won't ever be exposed to the weather (i.e. always worn in my bag in a bivy). Is there ... |

I hear you David... I'm with you. I'm an inch shorter at 6'2", but I only weigh around 155. (I try and try to gain weight but it just doesn't work). I bought so many jackets trying to find the ... |

Mountain Laurel Designs Superlight My bivy comes in at 6.3 ounces after removing the bungee that can be tied to the top of your tarp (to keep the fabric off your face). I was holding out forever for a Side Zip Vapr bivy, but after w... |

GoLite Jam2 What I like: 1) The shape of the shoulder straps fit me well, I never have to use the sternum strap (I removed it). The padding on the shoulders is very plush as well. 2) The very wide fabric c... |

Golite Ultra 20 I should preface that I am no quilt connoisseur. The only other quilts I've tried were a Jacks R' Better and an MLD quilt. (Both great products, just not what I was looking for). My size ... |

Montbell UL Down Inner Jacket I love this jacket. My size large weighs in at 7.2 ounces. So far I haven't noticed any real down leakage. It is so light that when I toss it it "floats". It also packs nice and smal... |

REI Lite-Core Short I've gone back to using this pad after trying closed-cell foam pads only. Things I like: - It is fairly comfortable with 1.5" of foam. The comfort level for me rises dramatically bet... |

Pro Lite Gear customer service I have now made quite enough orders with ProLite gear to hope that they carry everything I will ever need - I don't want to order from other companies! I have never spoken with them directly or v... |

Mountain Laurel Designs I've purchased 3 of Ron's products now, all of which have been well designed and of high quality and craftsmanship. My actual items have always been extremely close to the stated weight on th... |
