the Rumi Pouch is a great wallet

Haiku Rumi Pouch - Women's

Haiku Rumi Pouch - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 11, 2011

As with all Haiku Bags the ladies at Haiku got it right. I love the easy access with all the pockets, the nice credit/ID card and the perfect phone pouch. There's also enough room for chap stick! The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is my wrist strap attachment broke after having only a few months. I just clipped it onto one of the zippers so it still works fine.

Haiku Bags are beautiful and functional (and rock)

Haiku Rumi Messenger Bag - Women's

Haiku Rumi Messenger Bag - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 11, 2011

Of the many Haiku bags I own this is my favorite. It is beautiful, well thought out in design and how can you go wrong with Rumi quotes on the bag? This Rumi messenger is a tad smaller than their previous messenger, more dainty with the same rad features.

Elemental Herbs is the best

Elemental Herbs Camping Organic Healing Set

Elemental Herbs Camping Organic Healing Set

Rating for this product: 5 December 2, 2010

This is a great set for camping or just around town. I love the all natural ingredients. All good goop is amazing for healing and the cooling spray not only eases pain, the active ingredient arnica actually helps heal as well. I have been a fan of the Elemental Herbs lip balm since I first discovered them, its the only one I carry in my bag. The sunscreen is the only wah, I am still looking for an all natural sunscreen that doesn't go on a funny color..

The only way to make Big Agnes Dual Core better is the Sleeping Giant Memory Foam

Big Agnes Sleeping Giant Memory Foam Sleeping Pad

Big Agnes Sleeping Giant Memory Foam Sleeping Pad

Rating for this product: 5 November 10, 2010

The title says it all - because I am usually cold I got the Dual Core sleeping pad - 2.5" on it's own is really comfortable, adding the extra inch on this for 3.5" of sleeping magic is pretty sweet. It makes car camping more comfortable than sleeping at home (stars are always better than ceilings). I like that the inflatable portion zips into the memory foam portion as well so there is no sliding around. If this were wider I might just get rid of my bed entirely... maybe Big Agnes can come up with a 2-person version?

Big Agness Dual Core is THE sleeping pad

Big Agnes Dual Core Sleeping Pad - Mummy

Big Agnes Dual Core Sleeping Pad - Mummy

Rating for this product: 5 November 10, 2010

I LOVE this sleeping pad! It is blissfully comfortable, especially with the sleeping giant memory foam for car camping trips... and warm. I typically am freezing cold so decided to go for the extra weight with the dual core. Really happy I did. I camped out in the San Rafael Swell and woke up to frost in the morning. I was toasty warm (except for my toes which I believe are made of perma-ice and my nose). This is THE only way to go.

Rating for this product: 3 September 22, 2010

It is a cute sweater, but way to tight in the bust, made for flat chested women I guess. Also, itchy, but I have super sensitive skin so may feel fine for normal people.

CamelBak Day Star Hydration Pack 2L - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 September 18, 2009

I have used this pack for climbing, hiking, biking (mountain and road)... even a stroll in Central Park. Good sized pack with enough water capacity for an outing and pack capacity for snacks, a windbreaker and cell phone. Mesh pockets inside the front pocket are great at keeping smaller items handy.

Camelbak bite valve makes all the difference

CamelBak Big Bite Valve Mouthpiece

CamelBak Big Bite Valve Mouthpiece

Rating for this product: 5 September 18, 2009

I lost the original bite valve off my Camelbak when my boyfriend tried to hike me to death up Perla's Ridge in Little Cottonwood Canyon. It slipped off as I was sliding up a scary section of rock with no protection and I wasn't about to go back down to retrieve something I could no longer see. Using the bladder without the valve (which I had to do for the rest of the trip) resulted in a lot of water spilled on my clothes. Upon return, a couple of bucks later: new bite valve in place, back to spill-free hydration. Thumbs up.

This is the first down sleeping bag I've ever owned and I love it. It compresses down super small for easy backpack travel and is nice and toasty. I used it in high 40's unzipped for most of the night with light base layers and socks. Only my toes got cold in the wee morning hours.

Burt's Bees Sunscreen SPF 30

Burt's Bees Sunscreen SPF 30

Rating for this product: 3 July 13, 2009

I LOVE Burt's Bees products - best lip products and great skin care. However, I am disappointed in their sunscreen. The packaging says it leaves no white film though it did leave a hint of a yellow hue to my face (though not on the rest of my body) like a bad spray on tan. The lotion has a strange texture. It does protect against sun so job done.

prAna Hybrid Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 July 13, 2009

Super comfortable pant with a lot of room to move for either high-stepping or warrior pose. I tend to bang up my knees climbing so the double knee should come in handy. The fabric has a great feel, very light with a nice fit. Love the espresso color.

Rating for this product: 5 July 1, 2009

I like the ability to adjust the light, makes it easier to see in the dark hands-free as well as not blind people while talking to them - your friends will appreciate it. I've used the headlamp for both nighttime bouldering and retreat (with mention of a bright 3rd eye) as well as camping.

These shoes are SOOO comfortable and I get great compliments on the color (hot pink/moonlight) all of the time. The are cute enough I wear them to work and comfortable enough with great support and breathe-ability to wear out running. Buy a 1/2 size larger than you normally would.

After climbing in these shoes a couple of times the heel pinching has gone away - Yay! Great shoes once broken in, they even helped me up a 5.10c on my 6th climb with no heel pain (too bad they can't do anything for my bruises).

Rating for this product: 5 May 30, 2008

I tried on other harnesses before selecting the Selena - this is definitely the more comfortable harness I was concerned that the legs not being adjustable would be a problem but it fits really well and seems to be fine. I'm new to climbing and delighted I spend the extra $ to get something that'll grow with me. LOVE IT!

Not as comfortable as house slippers

Mad Rock Banshee Climbing Shoe - Women's

Mad Rock Banshee Climbing Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 May 30, 2008

Okay, so I know climbing shoes aren't supposed to be as comfortable as house slippers, but the heel pinches when I'm in distress (of course I don't feel the pinch on the ground or on easy climbs, just when everything else is screaming the shoe bites). I hope once I break them in it will lessen. Other than than, they are great - comfortable around the rest of the foot and great grip.
