considered down? I have the Cocoon mitts and the Montbell UL inner down jacket and pants. The Montbell gear is far FAR loftier and warmer than the Cocoon UL 60 filling, and the Montbell pants are cheaper for the s... |

Re: Experiences w/International Shipping I agree with the others...UPS sucks, and backcountrygear.com has an archaic ordering system for international customers. I always go with USPS. Always gets here quickly and never goes missing, pl... |

Re: Cuben Fiber = Backpacker Crack I just had to read this post because I thought "Backpacker crack" was something similar to "Builders crack", and that maybe someone had ill-advisedly made some slippery and see... |

Re: Add a vestibule Agree completely with Petras. The tent is light enough to handle the extra add-ons (vestibule and insect screen)and still be lighter than most tents on the market. It would almost be a "perf... |

DR Liner Our experience with the liner was not so good. We mostly use the tent as a two person tent, and in heavy condensation conditions the moisture drips onto the liner, then rolls off the side of the l... |
