Spy Orbit Goggles - Bronze Lens

Rating for this product: 4 October 26, 2009

after trying out a few different brands and models these are the best goggles I've owned. The goggle as a whole seems to be holding up well after two seasons and they've brought me nothing but joy on nice days. I've had a couple issues with fogging on snowy days, but that's just something i can't seem to get away from. All in all i recommend them

Katadyn Hiker Water Microfilter

Katadyn Hiker Water Microfilter

Rating for this product: 3 October 26, 2009

after quite a few uses i'm satisfied with this filter. It is easy to assemble, pumps water quickly, and it tastes good too! only downsides are the size and weight. It's no microfilter,but you get what you pay for. All in all a decent filter that easily gets the job done for you

MSR WhisperLite International Multi-Fuel Stove

MSR WhisperLite International Multi-Fuel Stove

Rating for this product: 4 October 26, 2009

This stove is badass! it will burn just about anything, has a hot flame that doesn't sound like a 747 engine and is reliable. It's easily maintainable, trustworthy, and seems to be pretty damn durable too. It may not be the smallest or lightest stove out there but it gets the job done and it looks like i'll be having it as my camping companion for some time to come

comfort and warmth for the weight

Therm-a-Rest Z Lite Sleeping Pad

Therm-a-Rest Z Lite Sleeping Pad

Rating for this product: 5 October 6, 2009

This thins is great in terms of value. its lightweight and the closed-cell material keeps you warm from the cold cold ground. i feel it may not be very durable though and may start to flake at the edges, but i'll have to let time be the decider of that. all in all, a great pad for the money

Sweet harness, sweet price

Black Diamond Momentum AL Harness

Black Diamond Momentum AL Harness

Rating for this product: 5 July 27, 2009

This is the first harness i've purchased so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I couldn't be happier with it! The momentum is very comfy; I could wear it all day long. The four gear loops come in handy all the time, and the adjustable leg loops make for a perfect fit. Good piece of gear from Black Diamond!

Oakley Nail Mid Hiking Boot - Men's

Oakley Nail Mid Hiking Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 July 27, 2009

i wrote a review praising these boots recently, but after a recent very wet backpacking trip i have a couple of updates. I hadn't really got these boots out in the rain too much before, and I found out that the waterproofing could use a little work. the weakness is in the tongue; it lets a little water seep through so your feet get kinda wet. Also, after 6 months of sparingly trekking in these a rip has appeared on the insole leaving me questioning the durability of the boots.

Oakley Nail Mid Hiking Boot - Men's

Oakley Nail Mid Hiking Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 July 6, 2009

I've had these boots for a few months now, and I've been giving them hell the whole time. So far they're bombproof. They have good waterproofing, ankle support, and they're also pretty comfy! I wear a size ten and the sizing runs true. no problems with these gives these boots an A.

Oakley Nail Mid Hiking Boot - Men's

July 6, 2009

this boot has a pretty roomy toebox, and they are the perfect width for my feet. that said, i don't have the widest feet either so you'd probably be better off with another boot

Eagles Nest Outfitters SingleNest Hammock

Eagles Nest Outfitters SingleNest Hammock

Rating for this product: 5 June 29, 2009

I love this hammock! It is easy to set up, and it can be put up just about anywhere where there's trees. Not only that but you can get creative with it too and set it up on rocks, cars, in the kitchen...just about anywhere! ENOs are pretty comfy too, and the material is very breathable. The only problem i ever have with it is the banana shape it puts your body in when you sleep in it, but you just have to work around and find your comfort spot. I definitely recommend it as a backpacking tool or just to relax in the yard.
