thanks for the review Kathleen- thanks for the review, there are not many non-gortex mids to choose from (seems like quite a few gortex ones though)- sounds like these might do the trick :) Thomas- my foot is relativ... |

decimal point would help :) that would be pretty heavy :) I roll the main tent around the poles, secured w/ a ponytail holder and stored up/down in my pack the fly is rolled (also secured w/ a ponytail holder) and stuff... |

enjoying the tent so far not a single complaint w/ this tent. it is a little on the narrow side, but not overly so (this is my wife and I- two big guys?????). plenty of room to sit up, pitches very easy and have h... |

capilene lasts (and lasts) not sure on longevity on other base layers, but can say w/ confidence that Capilene garments are long lived, they also (in my experience perform very admirably)- spendy- yes, but I always get mine ... |

Black Diamond Carbon Cork @ 16 oz (pair) these are certainly heavier than some of the UL offerings, but still relatively light the FlickLock is about as solid of a adjustment as I've seen for trekking poles- I'm sur... |

ULA Ohm not sure why it's listed with the frameless packs, while not a robust frame- the carbon fiber/derlin frame is certainly a frame and definitely helps w/ the load capacity of this pack anywho- th... |

Montrail Sabino Trail My first pair are over a year old now w/ ~ 500 backpacking/trail running miles- there is some light fraying here and there, but overall are still in very good condition. I've never had a hot spot... |

Osprey Talon 22 The Talon is a very full featured pack, that carries like a dream (w/ reasonable loads). I use it for snowshoeing day trips and it swallows up the gear- shovel, bivy, down parka, etc I love the be... |

Wet Fire Fire Starting Tinder I'm a little redundant w/ fire starting stuff (boy scout in me I guess)- the wetfire tinders are my "if I absolutely need to start a fire" tinder. they will even burn in water or on sno... |
