Re: Inflatable Pads - Carry Patch Kit? Anyone try Tyvek tape for this? |

[I bug myself] with this in the backcountry As much as it might fill up an outdoor romantic's most fantastic moments of REM sleep, in reality we don't often get to experience wild places entirely as we might prefer. One of the real k... |

Re: waist cinch for montbell inner jacket Using grosgrain, though, you'd avoid having to worry about folding in any raw edges, since the edges of the grosgrain are already "finished" and won't fray. And if you sew the gro... |

Re: Alternative to a drawstring One issue with the method as illustrated is that the pucker created in the jacket hem by the elastic compression would tend to ride up and out, exposing the elastic to snagging on things. It also m... |

Re: Re: 3 Days in the Whites Montains - Winter Or for crying out loud hop on a plane and go someplace nice. It's brutal up there in winter! (And, no, it's not winter's fault, per se, but the Old (recently deceased) Man of the Mounta... |

Re: Falling out of boat - not I usually keep the upper part of the spray deck, the torso portion, open, mostly because it's a little tight fitting to seal the velcro all the way up to the elastic & toggle closure, espec... |

Re: Podcast: Alpacka Packraft Safety Design Features I've never found Alpacka wet exits to be anything other than "automatic." Maybe in my case it's the 200lb object steering the raft, but the velcro-secured spraydeck never fails to... |

Re: Inflatable Pads - Carry Patch Kit? The new Aquaseal UV-Cure adhesive looks like a great fix for pinhole leaks, which are the most common problem with self-inflators. No heating of glue or dealing with long curing times, and probably... |

White Box Alcohol Stove The absence of a separate pot stand is an elegant little feat of stove engineering, and the design is marginally lighter than a pop can stove and stand (0.3 oz lighter than the Go-Torch by MoGoGear), ... |

Outdoor Research Sun Runner Cap The fact that the cape is entirely removable, rendering a standard ball cap, is both a boon and bane. The cap alone, with its hip, curved brim and streamlined look, passes the urban street test, w... |

Montbell Super Stretch Down Hugger #3 My new 2007 model 800-fill bag failed bigtime in the warmth department. Even with ample layering, pad, and use inside a tent, I couldn't seem to shake off annoying cold spots and a palpable sense ... |

Light My Fire Spork Other reviewers have covered the LMF Spork's merits. And while I certainly agree, there's just no getting around the fact that mine broke into two pieces after just two days of use. Inevitably... |

Granite Gear Vapor Trail This one doesn't quite reach cruising altitude for me. To begin with, the Vapor Trail's extension collar is unfathomably tall, and doesn't lend much functionality to this pack, but serves primarily... |

GoLite Infinity Make no mistake. This pack has a lot going for it. As others have pointed out, its 3000 ci capacity is just about perfect for thru-hiking ultralighters. In terms of organizational ability it is fe... |

Salomon XA Comp 2 I've enjoyed the weight, stability, and fit of the Salomon trail runners for years. Unfortunately the XA Comp seems to have devolved in recent times from a comfortable and durable product to one with ... |
