Klymit When Klymit starts adding insulation to their pads they're going to have some really interesting products. |

Expired Spray Old cans can lose their pressure, so I wouldn't take one that I didn't give a short test spray with first. Even then, old cans can seem to have pressure but quickly fade out in a second or ... |

Fish Stories Wow nice fish Mike. Thanks again for the suggestion for this rod. It was your post a year or two ago in the 'fishing' section that led me to it. Last month I was up in the Canadian Arcti... |

Rod Tyler, My rod is a spinning rod. It's a Quantum UL graphite 5 foot , 4-piece rod with the Quantum xtralight 3 ball bearing reel for 3.1 and 5.4oz respectively. I'm not sure if there'... |

Rod Perhaps not the answer you want, but I use a 4 piece ultralight rod ($30 on eBay inc. reel) and then I store that inside a plastic tube with caps designed for those long florescent light bulbs (ava... |

Rab Pulse I tried on the Montane Minimus and Rab Pulse recently at some local shops. The two shells were remarkably similar - enough so that I was left wondering if Montane and Rab worked together on them (i... |

Sleeping 1) Get some help from the terrain by choosing a soft spot with the ideal shape to it. I like a dip for my butt/back to fit into and then it being a little higher under my legs and head/shoulders. ... |

Fissure If you want the double cone that fits together to support the rim of the pot it's called the Fissure, not the Sidewinder. |

Quilts It really depends on your sleeping style. I personally much prefer a quilt without any sort of attachment system. I just roll up in it like I would at home. With the quilt wrapped around me, it'... |

Spark-Lite Fire Starter (Survival Gear - BPL Gear Shop) I have this kit and the FireLite Mini kit. This sparker is a bit lighter than the FireLite Mini but I don't trust this sparker 100% like I do the FireLite. This sparker doesn't work well wh... |

BPL FireLite Firestarter I love this FireLite Mini. It's the only thing that I 100% trust to start a fire. With a mini Bic you can run out of gas, be at too high of an altitude, get it wet or get it oily. Matches can ... |

Hyperlight Mtn Gear Echo I I wasn't sure where to put this review as the Echo I can be used as either a tarp or a double wall tent. OVERVIEW I've given the Echo I five stars because it's quality construct... |

Golite 2006 Reed Pants I've got the original Reed pants (4oz in a size medium) and they are prefect rain pants for UL hiking. They've been adequately durable, totally waterproof and light. I don't want ankle zip... |

Marmot Essence I'll be the first one to give this jacket 5 stars. Marmot has made a number of changes to this jacket over the years so criticisms of the earlier models are no longer relevant. My Essence is t... |

Baladeo 22 Grams Knife This knife is a brilliant design. Every part of it is functional and the result is a lot of knife for just 22g (or 24.3g as mine as actually weighs). When I opened the (very nice) box and first played... |

Nite ize S-Biner After using another small biner that failed due to a poor design, I switched the Nite Ize Size 1 biner for bear bagging this summer. I use one of these to clip to my 1.4mm spectra cord to my food sack... |

Mountain Laurel Designs Revelation I really like my 2009 MLD Revelation pack. The 1.5oz cuben is great. I think it will last a very long time provided I don't take any good falls on rocky slopes. With some bungie cordage, MLD s... |

Granite Gear Uberlight CTF3 Drysack I bought two of these Uberlight drysacks, a green 7L one for my GoLite Ultra 20 quilt and a orange 10L one for my wife's 15F rated 800FP MEC Merlin sleeping bag. The claimed weights for these d... |

Petzl e+LITE I really like the e+Lite. It's surprisingly bright and I appreciate the red light functionality in the tent. On high, this light is nearly as bright as my Tikka yet it weighs 1/3rd and has additio... |
