Breakfast formula Tony - one thing I discovered as I tried Sarah's and Dicentra's recipes for breakfast in their books is that there seemed to be a pattern to them. So I came up with my own formula: 1/3 C ... |

Good FBC recipes Pasted in below are 2 of my favorites that Sarah has posted on BPL and on her website. Although I've copied the recipes verbatim, I really recommend leaving out the mushrooms in the stroganoff... |

Finger whistles Mike - this would be a great opportunity to demonstrate your illustration skills. I just read a few sets of directions (why aren't I working?), and all I'm getting is a slobbery hissing. ... |

ULA updates If you go to ula-equipment.com and click on the Idaho icon in the lower righthand corner, you'll find his blog of his trip this summer. He mentioned he was trying out 3 different prototype pac... |

durability of lightweight wp/b pants Chris - I do lots of scrambling in the Pacific NW, and have used both an old version of Montbell rain pants (Paclite?), and now I have the Golite Reed pants. I avoid wearing them as long as possib... |

Aquamira Survival Straw Good grief. My life was a lot simpler before this thread got started! So survival straw plus chlorine drops? The best of both worlds? On day trips I rarely need to use more water than I'm c... |

Aquamira Survival Straw Good points, Ben. I hadn't realized the pore size was so big. Before I bought the straw I was carrying minidrop bottles of AquaMira itself. I can easily go back to that. There's no diff... |

Survival Straw I carry something similar in my daypack from AquaMira that's called a survival straw. It's different than the AquaMira frontier pro. It's only 10 dollars, weighs about half an ounce, ... |

Vegemite - more than you care to know I thought you people were kidding when you were talking about yeast and beer dregs. But what on earth is it? So I googled "vegemite" and found a thorough and sickening description of it... |

Seamstress Test drive it first before you pay to have it altered. It may be fine. You may be able to alter it first if all you want to do is make it shorter and don't mind packing the extra weight. Y... |

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... |

Sealskinz gloves I had the same experience as Brett. My non-waterproof gloves absorbed less water than these. |

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... |
