Gimpy pitch, great experience Thanks, Greg and Kendall. Even though I thought the tarp pitch was gimpy, it did work, and I was comfortable, so I guess it was great! I woke up frequently during the night when the wind woul... |

First Gimpy Attempt at Using a Tarp Yesterday I snowshoed the one mile to Skyline Lake from Stevens Pass in Washington to meet up with a handful of Mountaineers to finish off the last requirement of the Advanced Scramble Course. We ... |

ID sizing Steve - I wear a size small, and I bought a medium ID eVent, which fits perfectly. I laid it out on top of my Montbell Peak, size small, and they were identical in width and length. If I remember... |

Lid instead of oil Yeah, it's an interesting idea, but not very practical for backpacking. |

Authentic laboratory experiment in controlled environment for oil-type lid I just poured 2 C of water into my 3C AGG pot and then started added oil to see how much it would take to get a full cover of oil. First attempt - 4 TB (2 oz.). Second attempt, and poking at the ... |

Soup plus chocolate If it weren't so late, I'd go to the store now to buy that mix! Great write-up. Was that Mannie, Moe, or Jack you used to boil the water in? Ryan - you've got to admit that looks b... |

Chocolate - the perfect harmony Now you've done it, Denis. No fair talking about chocolate unless you tell us more. Hopefully you'll post a few recipes of what you're steambaking, or at least describe them with en... |

Ultimate question Definitely out in my book. I'll stick with the quite excellent Aqua Mira at a fraction of the cost and weight. |

Poster child for Introvert ISTJ I = 100 (Does this mean I should hike solo?) S = 50 T = 75 J = 67 By the way Bill, there's no such thing as an "S" in the 4th category. Try a P or a J. Sorry, but the &... |

Botach Tactical Customer Service I had a similar experience to David's. They sent the inferior space blankets, rather than the correct order, took forever to send a return UPS shipping label, and only yesterday admitted to recei... |

Boomer's Guide to Lightweight Backpacking by Carol Corbridge I was very disappointed in this book. Luckily, I didn't buy it but had checked it out from the library. For starters, the book is in major need of copy editing. There are lots of awkward sent... |

Backpacking Light Merino UL Pants These do everything BPL promised - provide comfortable warmth without being bulky. I've worn them under non-winter hiking pants all winter, and they've extended the comfort range down to 7 de... |

Hikelight.com Company I just discovered this website that is based in Oregon. It seems to be a distributor of some of our favorite brands - SixMoonDesigns, Tarptent, Montbell, GraniteGear, and Western Mountaineering. No ... |

HarmonyHouseFoods.com vegetables and beans I just received my second order of dehydrated food from Harmony House. First I bought the vegetable pantry stuffer - 16 different quart-sized containers of various dehydrated vegetables, and then a we... |

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... |

ULA Circuit This pack was on backorder, but it came sooner than Brian said it would. I gave it a 2-day test this last weekend on a short backpacking trip in the Cascades. I was pleased that it was as comfortabl... |
