Rating for this product: 5 January 2, 2009

The capacity is great - I seem to be the queen of water consumption, and it's nice to have the 42oz in this one. I also needed a bottle with a narrow mouth because I have a tendency to pour down my front. Mission accomplished with no spillage and this bottle!

MSR Lightning Snowshoe - Women's

MSR Lightning Snowshoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 2, 2009

Super lightweight, easy to put on, literally float on snow - it's really nice that all boots are compatible with these snowshoes. But the toe bindings for me DID budge - a lot - I almost lost a shoe! I'm definitely going to finagle some duct tape action or something to keep the toe bindings tight because I love the shoes otherwise.

I love the slide-out function of these utensils - pack small, and slide up into normal size. So much better than the folding kind that folds up on you when you use it!

Pacific Outdoor Equipment All Out Lite Sleeping Pad - Women's

Pacific Outdoor Equipment All Out Lite Sleeping Pad - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 December 29, 2008

even after a few uses I still have to inflate this myself, which makes it not exactly "self inflating", which would be fine if it was not supposed to be self-inflating.... also, I bought it because I seem to have the "achy hip" issue from lying on the ground, and thought that a women's pad might alleviate this annoyance. No go. :(

This shirt is pretty good, but not as soft as the icebreaker fiber. I still love it though!

Rating for this product: 5 August 30, 2008

Icebreaker rules! I love the weight of this shirt - perfect for heavy duty sweating, minus the smelliness synthetics have. Plus the shape on this one (slightly longer back) is excellent.

KUHL Euro Sport Zip Jacket - Women's

KUHL Euro Sport Zip Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 May 1, 2008

Definitely a cozy warm jacket that is casual, but looks more stylish than your typical fleece. Plus, unlike your typical fleece, there's no rankness if you happen to sweat in it. Hooray for wool!
My only disappointment is that it's warming up out there, and I've only got to wear it for a couple of weeks before it resides in the closet for the summer...

Rating for this product: 5 February 11, 2008

I love everything icebreaker. These are great, wedgie-free comfy and "clean-feeling" even for multiple day backpacking. Sometimes there's no good opportunity to change in the desert...

Rating for this product: 4 February 11, 2008

Super great fit, comfy, breathable, ultra convenient for backpacking no-water camping... but with all that desert dirt, white may not have been the wisest color choice!

Icebreaker merino shirts are the best thing since... I don't know... they are unbelievable! I can't believe how light, soft, comfy, cozy, cool, warm, and ultimately STINK FREE they are! Worth every penny. And fit true to size.

love the colour and the fit... but is irritatingly itchy on the skin, I am surprised as it is mountain hardware and my icebreaker merino top is not at all itchy.

Arc'teryx Fugitive Hooded Jacket - Women's

Arc'teryx Fugitive Hooded Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 January 8, 2007

I bought this jacket for lightweight warm wind-breaker purposes and can't believe how much I wear it. I find the fit perfect, lots of flexibility and movement, but my favourite part is how well it handles sweat! It wicks amazingly, dries practically instantly (so you don't feel cold and damp when you stop moving), and it somehow doesn't get stinky.

Rating for this product: 5 January 8, 2007

you can't ask for more car-camping comfort - way less bulky than most travel chairs and way more portable (comes with shoulder strap!). all it's missing is a beer-holder! the reclinability is perfect for a mid-afternoon nap...
