My setup... It looks like a lot of people are using the same setup I have. - BPL TI wing stove - MSR Titan (I wish BPL would get the FireLight 550 pots in stock!) - Aluminum windscreen (from GossamerGea... |

Shelf life... What is the shelf life of Klearwater? I haven't used it yet - I just got some with my BPL order a week or so ago. |

My first attempt at setting up a tarp... I got my MLD order a couple days ago! As a first time tarp user, I'm not sure exactly how taut the panels and ridgeline are supposed to be. When I tap on the front of the tarp it "waves&... |

Canister... I wasn't going to post since I haven't used the Bearvault Canister. But since I see that nobody is replying to your post, I thought I'd throw in my two cents. I have the Jam2, and I... |

Differences in shelter for high altitudes... I hear a lot of talk about needing a different shelter for high altitudes. Being from SLC, most of the backpacking I do is at 7,000-11,000 feet. Why exactly do you need different shelters for hig... |

Na Pali coast... Sure is! It was an awesome hike. |

Temperature difference between wide and slim bivies I ordered an MLD Superlight with the wide option thinking the extra space might be nice. I am now thinking that since I am very skinny and sleep like a mummy (arms crossed over chest, legs togethe... |

I tried both out again... I tried both the fleece and the jacket out again a couple nights ago. I didn't sleep in them, and I was much less "scientific" this time. I just tried them on and stood around outsi... |

Sewing Fleece to Momentum... I want to make some headgear for quilt sleeping, something that will cover everything except my nose and mouth. (To make it multi-purpose I might make the face covering detachable so I can use it ... |

Jam2 I've taken my Jam2 to around 24lbs - it handled just fine and I wasn't even using the hip-belt. The key (like others have said) is getting a rigid frame using your gear. It helps if you d... |

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... |
