Two ugly possums Thanks for the clarification, Jaime! However, I think if anyone asked who won the possum beauty contest, the answer would have to be "no one." I wore my beanie (without propeller) a... |

0 degree MYOG quilt Thanks, Aaron! It is a very appealing setup, and I will give it a try. I'll probably include a fabric bottom like Bill Fornshell does, because I'm a thrasher, and I need some sort of cont... |

possums and other snarly beasts I can tell I'm going to like the possumdown beanie in just the short time I've worn it, because it feels warmer than my fleece hats and weighs less. I even like calling it a beanie, even t... |

0 degree MYOG quilt I have been following this thread with great interest and was glad to see the pictures today. Aaron - what is your source for buying the momenum and down? Would you be willing to give the dimensi... |

My beanie and gloves came! Ahem. Back to recycled possums. I'm wearing my beanie that was in today's mail as I type, and I might get to wear it to work tomorrow right here in the big city. The weather people are p... |

Instant refried beans I have bought dehydrated refried beans from the local Albertson's grocery store. I had to wait until I got home to check the brand before jumping in to this discussion. The brand is Santa Fe.... |

Tuesday Tater Report While I was doing the Grandma Thing at my kids' place during the Thanksgiving holiday, one day I made the Red & Green taters, the Salmon Mashers, and the Cheddar Cheese taters. They were a... |

Mushroom Madness Monday I can hardly wait for Tuesday. But you already knew I'd say that! |

Re: Temp limits for alcohol stoves I do the same as Richard. Melting snow with alcohol is inefficient for me because of the need to constantly refill the stove. I suppose I could carry 2 because they're so light. I've see... |

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... |
