- Success & Failure on the Colorado Trail | by Luke Schmidt. I'd been on dozens of trips from weekends to five days, I'd done even longer canoe trips, but I'd never been able to go hiking for more than five days at a stretch. The questions in my mind were "Can I do this? Will my gear work? Will I stay motivated? Do I have the right food?" Only time on the trail would answer.
- Granite Gear Blaze AC 60 | by Brad Groves. Techy enough to look like a contemporary pack, but without standing out, the Blaze reminds me of a good spy's ability to blend in. It performs well in the field, too, and looks its role: solid, light, utilitarian.
