These would work but a fairly expensive i would check out these... http://www.backcountry.com/the-north-face-hoback-work-glove or http://www.backcountry.com/mountain-hardwear-jalapeno-glove

two options get the Large, i feel like it fits pretty true to size, or you can order both large and medium and return the one you dont use, you will have to pay about 6$ return shipping but its worth it to make sure Xmas morning he has one that fits perfectly. Nothing is worse than getting an AWESOME jacket and having to return it because it doesnt fit just right and having to wait an extra week.

GOOD LUCK

I dont think you should be worried The Goat (Backcountry.com) has an amazing return policy and always takes care of us! Go ahead and buy you wont be sorry!!!

Try using chat now and asking them, that would be your best bet. Good luck!!!

All depends on the size of your rope for my rope i use the http://www.backcountry.com/store/search.html?mv_session_id=Nu9HPvIr&aff=1&q=metolius+rope+ranger for a day of trad climbing i http://www.backcountry.com/osprey-packs-mutant-38-backpack-2100-2550cu-in the mutant is my go to pack and i find that most the time i end up stuffing the rope ranger in the bottom with the rope and pile everything else on top. good luck!

I would go with these they are good for anything and they are Dynafit compatible, i dont think that the BD Factors are. Get um SHRED AND NEVER LOOK BACK!!!! GO BIG OR GO HOME!!! IMPULSE BUY DO IT DO IT!!!

Looks like at some point it stopped rotating then started to burn from the friction of the rope. This device is not designed for high speeds, its made for light rescue and for climbing (hauling gear bags) or other climbing applications. The plastic is not made to stand up to heat, i would look into something that is made for zip lines probably a metal pulley. I dont know of any climbing gear made for that fast of movement and that much friction. Good luck be careful.

Most people go ahead and Girth hitch them. You are true that normally you dont want to girth hitch two fabrics together it does weaken the system but you shouldnt be falling on this system anyways. Also if something it girth hitched to your harness for to long you could wear out your belay loop (what might have happened to Skinner), it should be fine unless its always really tight and for a long period of time just be sure to inspect your equipment and you will be fine.

http://lasportiva.com/catalogue/catalogo.php?cat=6&cod3=835&Language=EN

They make both sizes you are looking for. BC.com just doesnt appear to have any in stock...good luck

The hood is helmet compatible it fits for me over my Petzl Meteor helmet.

Scarpa tends to fit a little wider i switched from La Sportiva to Scarpa for that reason. A cobbler wont get much just soften them up a little. Tried it once and didnt help much with my feet.

General rule of thumb around here is to go off the manufacture's website.

I guess its no longer on sale. this page also says 0%off. try using chat now and see what they can do for you.

Neither you want a FREERIDE snowboard not a FREESTYLE snowboard. Check out something like the Burton Custom X. Check out http://www.backcountry.com/store/group/295/All-Mountain-Snowboards.html for backcountry.com's list of all mountain snowboards (freeride)

There is no removable liner aka inside glove. They should be warm enough for that most stuff that says its rated for expeditions are rated down to -20. This all depends on how warm your hands are tho.

I believe the down fill is 625. For 100$ these should be very warm gloves.

any bladder should work just fine.

If the size is not in the drop down menu they dont have them. They should fit fine over a ski boot since they are made for ski touring. Check out chat now and maybe they can tell you if they are getting your size in anytime soon.

Try contacting North Face they have a place for you to send the items for warranty.

Try checking out http://www.thenorthface.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/TNFAttachmentDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=207&attachment=/corporate/customer_service/warranty_product_guarantee/warranty_and_repair

Q4: Are rips and tears covered by warranty?
We manufacture all of our products to meet our superior standards. However, regardless of how carefully you use, or how well you care for your The North Face® product, it will eventually begin to show age and wear. The North Face® warranty covers defects in workmanship and materials, regardless of the age of the product, but it does not cover normal wear and tear.

I dont think there is a membrane most the time soft shells dont (havent seen any that do). There is a DWR and just the material that the shell is made out of make it water resistant.

Burton can not be shipped outside the u.s. http://sales.liveperson.net/hc/s-9551721/cmd/kbresource/kb-4357776920293079172/view_question!PAGETYPE?sc=120&sp=94&sf=101133&documentid=239527&action=view&VisitorProfile=BCS&MESSAGEVAR!home=yes&MESSAGEVAR!cookie=no&MESSAGEVAR!docid=239527

Any board shop should have some around or atleast get you some no problem.

The Hustle has a Slide lock back and this one has a ratchet back for adjustments.

I think they make some that are not Lithium that are that size. but i think that your stuck. I know they are expensive but they pay off.

That is like a week long to month pack. for 3-4 days look at something between 50-60L. If you loaded this pack up you might tip the lad over. Try asking the scout leader what size of pack most kids are using.

it sounds like it does but try using chat now to be sure.

if its just for steep stuff i would get the 50 cm

yea for pow might be a little big for park.

only thing i can find is that its a typo some how.

65-70...try making a stick that is the different sizes and try it out.

i would bring 2-3 canisters but it really depends on how high up your are and the weather. starting temp of the water...the cup does have a measuring system

ype it really is.

70% off some items on the whole site... this pillow is no longer offered.

just how you see it. Step in to the crampon take the strap go through the band oover your toe back to the other side and double back through the metal rings...maybe that helps...just try and make it look like the picture

DTS is the gold standard for anyone getting into beacon use or those of us who have used beacons for years easy and dependable. as far as the shovel wouldnt worry about it you wont break it shoveling snow, your not that strong i promise.

there is stuff more geared for kids depends on the size of your kid tho they could ride a small mens board or even a womans board.

pretty standard backpack size. laptop and 2 or 3 text books.

im not exactly sure what your asking but if you need a locking biner this will work. be careful and make sure you know what your doing...

the scarpa website list them in UK. I would guess that these are in UK also. try using chatnow they may know for sure

try using chat now. But i think your probably gonna be outta luck. Good luck tho!

I would say its ok i always tell people that if the shoes are a little uncomfortable then they fit just right. Slippers from hell!

I think these would work just fine. No need to drop 100+ and then she is just no into it or you break up. Get these or check out the outlet for even cheaper shoes.

Worldwide, visit www.findmespot.com for coverage map

Worldwide, visit www.findmespot.com for coverage map

I dont but i know people who have. if you know what your doing a compass with a sight on it is all you really need i believe

The Xenon has no lining, different pockets, and is 5oz lighter.

if you bought them through backcountry.com you can just send them back to bc.com...

i would think so you dont want a full size bigger on climbing shoes but it depends on how much he climbs and how fast his feet are growing. Does he climb everyday? get shoes that fit. Does he climb once a month and in 3 months his feet will be a 8.5 then get the 8.5. you want climbing shoes to be tight and responsive.

average is different for every person but this pack could handle 50-60lbs. Osprey makes good packs so it will be stable.

extra stakes for guying out your tent. same with the cord. and the plastic is for tensioning the cord when guying out the tent. The gromment i dont know for sure perhaps for tying up the doors to keep them open?

Taken from Kelty.com

It till work. when you get the compass it will tell you what adjustments you will need to make.

Yea just leave the cap off and dont fill it up all the way.

Prusik minding is nice other wise someone has to stand there and keep the prusik from jaming the pulley. you will learn more this summer but i like prusik minding pulleys to free one more person up.

pain is part of the sport i would save your money and use your football pads.

like a mix of sky and aqua blue...

yep everything you see in the drop down menu is all that backcountry has in stock.

I would get a 9 they run really true to size. If anything a little small so go with the 9s.

you will need an L/XL im 62 225 and wear a L/XL

you should be able to have it fit!

i wouldnt want to the LED at best are going to get 20 feet out in front really 10 Feet so that you can see. Sure people can see you but you wont be able to see to far in front. the xenon will allow you to see though

yep

I guess the "XL" will do:
Cartridge Life: up to 150 gal
Flow Rate: 1.9 L / Minute

The Deluxe only does
Purification Rate: 1.8 L / min
Output: 135 gallons per filter

Pretty much the same thing i would say.

This is about the smallest bag you can get, i would go with Mont Bell but thats just me. You can return anything you buy from backcountry.com for a lifetime.

place the item in your cart then start the check out process before you buy you can find out shipping cost that is the best way to go.

It will work.

I wear the same size in these as a do shoe size so i would keep it the same.

according to the SOG website they are still made in lynnwood, washington

are they loops? They could be used for guying out the tent perhaps?

This pack has one front external pocket, and is 2Oz's heavier...so i think the other one is probably the better bet its just older.

It has a waterproof raiting of 10000mm so you will be fine in most weather systems. There is no weight raiting which tells me that its heavy. For packability this is not the best option try checking out the...The North Face Bomber Jacket...Arc'teryx Fission SV Jacket - Women's or maybe do a rain jacket with a feece or down jacket under it. If you can afford it Fission is the way to go

I have never had a problem and i have used 100% deet (although you need NO more than 40%) OFF makes a new DEET free spray that is better i feel anyways check that one out.

Lt does not have pockets or reinforced knees. The AR has Powder cuffs with gripper elastic and lace hook and Keprotec™ instep patchs. Thats about it

as long as your not sitting on your butt or POORING down rain they should work fine. Keep the DWR up on them and i think you will be happy with them

there are none left...but if it comes back in stock check out the sizing chart...sorry

It really all depends on what you want to spend, what season and how concerned about weight you are. To make life easier on my horses i would have two different tents one that fits 6 people and one that just fits two that way when there is just 2 people my horses dont have to carry all that extra weight. Im guessing that you are only going to need a 3 seasons tent so i would go with the...Mountain Hardwear Casa 6 Tent 6-Person 3-Season. Its not even half the weight of this tent only 11lb 10oz and it is 150$ less. That way you can have one text and even when its two people your only putting 6Lbs per horse not has bad as 14Lb per horse with this tent

Add all the items to your cart and start the check out process it will tell you how much it cost.

A few things the Simmer light is heavier but has about a min faster boil time. Different fuels and the Windpro has a Heat Reflector and a Windscreen where the simmerLite does not. Also the SimmerLite is just stainless steel. Hope that helps

yea you need to by a bladder. like a camel back or something it doesnt come with one only the option to have one.

all seasons you can use this and as far as big enough for two days it is big enough big enough for a week for me. Depends on how you pack.

Just the photo the gun metal is laying flat the other color is wrapped around something. pretty funny though

they are not 50% off as of now...so I dont know. maybe they were updating things when you were trying or maybe the only had one pair on sale some tiems that happens.

your hands wont get wet with these and the XCR. I have a pair and they are wonderful! I wouldn't be to worried about it just when you get home hang them up some place with some air movement not right on the heater tho.

yea its not going to do real well i dont think every time it would but there is the possibility for sure. i would use a differnt jacket or just not smoke...

yea after looking around i think that just the doors are No-see-um mesh. Everything else is just nylon so i dont think you would have much luck looking at the stars.

this will probably give you a little room left over. Check out DAKINE Shuttle Bike Pack - 250cu in or something in that catagory

it would be really hard to do that with the strut set up but without that i think its tall enough to do that.

yep just attach the loops and off ya go!

as far as compass's go this one is just about the top of the line so it should work fine.

i would think so but i would try it out on something not to high first.

its getting to be alot of stuff i would get a pack with one built in. I dont really know if these are really worth the money. Sure they work but as you get caught in an avalanch you have to get this in your mouth and keep it in there the whole time...good luck...

well that is totally determined with what you have in it.

seeming as tho its onsale i wouldnt think so.

they should last very well

normally within 24hrs

Airy 8-ft. x 9-ft. main vestibule area with a 7-1/2" height is perfect for use as a common area, for staging equipment or storing bikes. 6-ft. x 7-1/2-ft. sleeping compartments, one on each side of the common area sleeps three people each. From Cabela's.com

yep

take it out of the little mesh pack and use the water bottle like any other water bottle.

haha no but thanks man im really sure they will restock them they are awesome hats and they have had them around for a few years. They just sometimes update they style a little but either way a solid hat. they have a s/m in the blue right now!

I believe they can. Start the check out proccess and you should be able to have it sent to china.

i would try the s/m they have some in stock that should work best for the lad

i would keep 2 but thats just me

almost any store that sells food will probably have it. Like a frys or fred meyer and thing like that safeway might have it. big 5 sportings goods

i would think that they would. The hat is awesome i actually have 2. im like 90% sure that before winter they will!

i would tuck them in under the toung of the shoe

I would go with this or the Venture. They are very similar jackets so really it comes down to what one you like the looks of more.

this will work...

no not really except if its sunny the water might get warm. Its kinda heavy to be carring around to. But what you want to do with it will work.

What type of accessories are you talking about? Like sleeping bags and pads? If so no. I have never seen any kits on BC.com. So you will have to buy everything seperate.

I think its a typo. All SOG knives are made in lynnwood washington.

if i remember right that would be about 50 MPH and i would not recomend that. if you guy it out really well you might be ok with a steady one directional wind but really i wouldnt go above like 30 MPH and feel all that comfortable.

3 season tents arent made for that you made the right choice.

I would use the Clip for these boots i have BD crampons and love them.

I would A frame them or MAYBE you can use that loop i see and put them diagonal accross the back.

yea treat it with a DWR and it will get better but it will be fairly water resistant without it. A DWR will make it bead more.

Alps makes good stuff i have never personally owned their stuff but lots of people i know have so i would not be to worried. They also offer a lifetime warranty so your fairly safe.

water will bead a little if you want more put a better DWR coating on it

its on sale so chances are down. Try using chat now and ask them they might know forsure

there is only one pocket on the back.

they might order some more since its not on sale its probably more likely that they will than they wont. Try using Chat Now maybe they can help you a little more.

board needs to be a 165 at least and a WIDE like the burton custom X WIDE. you need a large in these bindings and boots get whatever will fit you want something wiht a low profile boots will be hard there are only a few out there that fit so done be picky

lauren...it all depends on what size of text book but for an average day of classes you will be fine. i would say 3 textbooks and a note book or 2

no it doesnt look like from Camelback.com that there is a gasket repair kit...maybe the hardware store has one but probably have to just get a new one...

im not exactly sure but maybe its for guying out the tent. maybe if you can upload a picture or something i could help more...

i have never seen a probe longer than 320cm your looking for a 365cm probe. They might not be made. you get bellow 320cm there is not much hope, really at 320 cm digging 10 feet is more than likly finding a body. if you really wanted to you could make one just take a few more pole segments and a new wire and make one to any length you want with a little effort.

The biggest difference will be the mesh back panel

nope

almost all packs are...but im not 100% sure on this one...

nope the black is just black

i would not use them for that. I would get some sort of softshell or Goretex shell to block wind and every thing else. Check out some softshell pants more money but you will be WAY happier with their performance compared to these.

Nope

They all use a Polyurethane sole. Therefore the level of slip resistance will be the same for all their clogs. As far as how slip resistant that sole is it depends on what you want to do in them for casual outings you will be fine. If you doing anything technical your in a world of hurt for more reasons than the sole of the shoe.

Black is the only color that BC.COM carries other companies may have the white color

I dont think these are your best option they are for light backpacking. I would look for something that is just for ankle support, like an ankle brace that you can wear inside your shoe.

I think by "packable" they mean that its light and easy to pack along

They have a size 8 in these shoes...Honestly the BOA is not the best thing, its not all that adjustable kind of seems like a novality item any more.

Due to contracts Salomon snowboards can not be shipped outside of the US by Backcountry.com. Sorry

I think it would fit you. If it doesnt for some reason send it back and they will glady take your return

Its up to 10K waterproof. If you want something that works as raingear tryin spending the money once on something like Arcteyrx or Mountain Hardware. Its more up front but both compains will take more than one season so it pays off in the long run. I used to do the same thing as you then i did the math and paying 200$ once for years of use is better than paying 70$ every year.

get the bigest one give yourself some room

I think you can use Lithium bats just like you would alkaline. Just somethings dont need them. There should be no problems they are only puting out .2 more volts each. Get some and test it out a little before you leave the house. Also please remember that lithium batteries are TOXIC and you cant just throw then in the regular trash.

dont make them in those colors what you see here is all they got.

http://www.mountainhardwear.com/Product.aspx?top=1626&prod=3373&cat=1688&viewAll=False

Get the FSN 95 GTX. I have those boots and i love them. These boots the matic 200 are for really wet places you dont need that for the grand canyon.

dont know what your talking about totally but it does have a lifetime warranty so your covered

no netting

just about everything different cut, different base, different core, different art. They are both a snowboard however....

no its just a cute little all in one package really the pack is not all that useful. no ski carry. only useful for carring a prob shovel and maybe a quick snack.

to much to backpack with its only for casual use thats why there is no weight placed on the specs.

probably not rick but try and use CHAT NOW and ask them will will give you a date or something that they might have them in.

there is a 2007 version and then this one is the 2008- current version. what version is your tent?

never seem them but a good way to find out what might be on the steep is to look in the backcountry.com outlet. Only outlet stuff is put up on the steep.

nope what they have on the site is what they have in the warehouse.

size 8 waist with a 13 inch inseem

it will fit once size is one size. if not you can always return it. most stuff that is one size uses a very streachy material that will streach to any sized nogin

Try using Chat Now and they will get you an answer since they are in the warehouse. That should help you alot more than us gear heads can.

yea i think it would work but in VERY VERY VERY best situations your only going to be getting 52 Watts out of this on average probably about half of that. If you spend money on a nice converter you wont have much resistance so you will have 120V and about 40 watts which you should be able to increase. Talk with an electrican and see what they have to say. Im sure they can give you a better answer over the phone.

This bag will work for you if you want it to but i would stick with adult packs if i was you.

yep it will

not all that well. I would look into a different type of stove with a different fuel source

depends how long you leave it in there. But the plastic does take on other flavors over time.

what you see in the drop down menu is all they have.

The mesh is a no see um mesh.
under heavy rain it will be a drawback a huge drawback if its a little windy.
As far as pockets i dont know but i would be more suprised if there wasnt then if there was. so im about 90% sure it does.

Yep the dimensions of this and the Neoair are exactly the same so it will fit perfectly.

i believe they are always open. It saves you alot of weight for them to always be open and since this is supposed to be an ultra light tent i wouldnt think they would add that.

like mark says i would try a new boot. sounds like these are just not owrking out for you. Both the 45 and 44.5 dont work so your SOL on these boots so try a new boot, there are lots of them out there.

not fit and zip

waist length 27 inches

dont understand all the way but bliss blue is a baby blue and deap water blue looks more liek a navy blue

yep order the same size it will fit the same. Unless you think you want to layer heavy under it. This jacket will keep you dry maybe check out the TNF Venture tho its a littl ebetter rain jacket if thats what you want

The venture has no lining, but has pit zips for venting, and is several OZ lighter. Other than that its just style.

no i think it will be close tho should be 34-34. i would look for a convertable pant that come in tall sizes.

once you get the original shoe they will refund that price to get the sale price try using Chat Now and explain what happened they will probably match the sale price on the new shoe.

im guessing your asking for womens jackets, check out the Furnace or firefly

Check out, Arc'teryx Cierzo 35 Backpack. That is one that with some research you can fill although the side pouches will be hard to find...

10=M 12=L 14=XL

They are neoprene so at different foot positions they could hold water. If you are set on them try them out but i think there is better options.

Its not on sale. atleast not anymore. sorry if you had any confusion.

They might get some in at the start of the new styles. Try using CHAT NOW they might know a little bit more. I would return it then buy the one you want when it comes up.

since it sounds like your going on an awesome trip and dont want your pack holding you back, i would find a way to try out all three. Load them up and walk around a little and see how they feel. If you order all three off BC.com your gonna be out 20-30 bucks on shipping but if you think about it thats not a big price to pay to have a good pack. Try using Chat Now maybe they will give you a little help with shipping cost, sometimes they can some times they cant it worth a shot tho. GOOD luck and have FUN!

Yes it does.

The North Face Harper Woven Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Has a whistler green that shows up, its kind of a greyish green.

I wouldnt think so with the lycra

Oakley shoes that i have had have always ran just a little big like maybe 1/3 of a size big. not much at all

The high roller is quite a bit bigger with a few more and bigger pockets. Really its the size.

thats about the only thing it doesnt have! Arc'teryx is the way to go.

you would want a Small there is a sizing chart, unless you are going to be using it with lots of clothing but a Small will work best

All depends on what type of shipping you watn to pay for. But it ships out within 24 hours. I live in Washington state and stuff takes about 3-4 days. its pretty fast.

yea there is a stopwatch it has full watch functions which includes a stop watch

Honestly they are both Very good packs i think that i would take Osprey because i have owned one and love their packs. That being said you should probably find a way to load both up and try them out. Lots of times it comes down to how they fit on you and how they feel walking around the house or the store.

10,000MM

http://www.pertex.com/shield/

Would rather have Gore-tex but this would work. Better stuff out there tho

check out something that is convertable. That way when you need a 4 season tent you have one and in the summer you can leave part of the tent at home and have a lighter stll useable tent.

When the new styles come out the might have one. Try Using CHAT NOW they can give you a better answer.

Are you sure there is even just a Makalu? I think its just the Super Makalu

will be a little big but you can probably use it. I dont know on your ability tho.

yep its a removable pack inside this pack. its a pretty good way to go that way you can stil use the pack with out the camera and have some room.

kid stop copy pasting questions all over the place. But yes it would you know it would.

Try the crowbar they fit really well with my helmet

i have a pair and i can get my BD sabertooths to fit but its not the most secure fit and will tear up the boot i think. But yes they will fit.

i have a pair and i can get my BD sabertooths to fit but its not the most secure fit and will tear up the boot i think.

yes

Yes

Dont have the long version so you will have to check out a different site normally about 70-80$ tho

yep

THIS IS THE ADAPTER!!! this connects up to the Hot water on Demand unit which cost about 150-250$

http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp;jsessionid=NL55SLKJPUZNLLAQBBJSCO3MCAEFIIWE?id=0024908516349a&type=product&cmCat=froogle&cm_ven=data_feed&;cm_cat=froogle&cm_pla=1510106&cm_ite=0024908516349a&_requestid=87939

100% Cotton (60% Organic)

1 way

Hyvent is supposed to be like Gore-tex never have used it. So if it really is like Gore-tex then it will take some serious rain.

If its not online they dont have it. Sorry

this has no insulation and its very light so it will be pretty-very thin.

Yes this will be very windproof

Native Eyewear Streak Sunglasses - Polarized, Native Eyewear Ambush Interchangeable Sunglasses - Polarized, Native Eyewear Ignition Interchangeable Sunglasses - Polarized...check all 3 of those out

real partially with the nylon

Kind of an odd silver. Check out this link

http://www.travelcountry.com/shop/north-face/mens-insulated-jackets/north-face-reversible-mercurial-jacket.html?RefId=29&RefType=Affiliate

yep or on really cold try days.

nope 4 AA bats

you will be really close i would go and try one on. But i think that you will be ok.

no more than 66# everything else should be fine

Not that feasible your going to role to eachother all night. Will not be all that much fun.

Not that water resistant. walking to or from class on a short walk you woul be fine but not for long distances in the rain

Black Irrodium even though its not in your selection but they will show you shadows on the green and dont distort colors

Kind of a weird question to ask on another companys site but im sure that you can. The goat ships super fast tho! ships out in 24 hours and usally gets there in 3-4 days.

That is your call, depends on if you think you will get hot or not. tough for us to answer that one for you.

If you time it right you can get a pair off the steep or tramdock for less than replacement lenses

its more just to hold the skin to the board it should be fine if not take a pair of pliers and pinch the ends in.

Try using Chat Now and ask them but probably not untill the new styles come out.

i wear i size 14 also and i use an XL but im 6 2 225 so you might be good with a L. But i would go with an XL.

You need a small. and as far as working for a 3-4 nighter i dont know it really all depends on how you pack. but for me it would be good but i go ultra light. I can fit everything for 2 nights in a 28L pack

when ever going to buy a pack go to the store load it up, walk around and see how it feels. I was not a fan of this pack, got it and returned it. The back velcro straps is it, what you see is what you get. Maybe some other gear heads will be more help but i think its just the wrong pack for you.

nope if you want waterproof check out the naos, arrakis, or bora, naos is most waterproof

True to size really. Maybe a little tight so if your like between a M and a S get the M but if your a solid M then dont worry about it get the M.

For me it depends on the terrain. If you sprain your ankle because you dont have good support then alot of good conserving weight did for you. So really it all depends 23# pack is not all that much, but maybe load up a pack with 25# have your son walk around and see what he would like the most, if his ankles feel like they need support get some supportive shoes. Really it is a personal preference. Normally around 25# i would use trail runners but im 6 3 225 so maybe for the small lad boots would be a good way to go. You can get some nice ones i love ASOL boots like the FSN 95 GTX Mens Waterproof Hiking Boots.

I think that it is a 4 season tent according to Black Diamond. From BD:The OneShot is a four-season, freestanding solo shelter that is roomy enough to sit up in, yet packs down small and weighs less than some bivy sacks. Using a two-and-a-half pole design similar to the Lighthouse, the OneShot offers a full side-opening door with a built-in window and another window on the opposite side with awnings over both. The canopy is built with highly water-resistant and breathable Epic by Nextec fabric, and the trapezoidal floor is made of double silicone coated nylon ripstop. To keep your small items safe, the OneShot has two interior net pockets.

Look at the over all weight. The fill weight will depend on the size of the fill that is used. so say 800+ fill is used its going to be lighter than 600 fill and the same warmth. So look at the overall weight of the bag and the temp rating. Try looking at Montbell i love their bags.

Check out Nikwax. They offer a wide range of products for jackets and waterproofing.

i dont believe so. like 95% sure noe

But you can use anything that is helmet compatable. I use a pair of crowbars and they work wonderfully.

No tech specs says there is no haul loop...do you have the belay loop on the front confused with the haul loop?

On the XL the inseam is 34. The L is 33 and the M is 32. Hope that helps

oh yea its 96 inches long so you will be good. I have included a photo on this page of the floor plan check that out too.

use Chat Now and ask a sales rep. Im sure that it all depends on how much you want to spend on shipping.

This is a good harness for that. As far as a kids size i doubt it but you didnt tell us how big your brother is the S will go down to a 25 inch waist.

L/XL which they dont have in stock :(

I would say am XL im not going to bust out the ruler but im 6 3 and 225 and i have an XL and i can layer a fleece under it. It is a little short so maybe check out the Alpha SL but I would think that you would be fine with an XL.

This at 20K will hold up pretty well. I love just about everything Montbell makes. Its not going to be the most burly jacket but it will hold up well if you are not bush wacking through a brie patch. I would get the XL, im 6 3 225 and an XL works well and the only other size left is a M and that will be way to small!

Yep if it ever stops beading apply another DWR. Im a big Gore-tex so check out something with Gore-tex Paclite like the Arc'teryx Beta SL Jacket or the Arc'teryx Alpha SL Jacket (both a few OZ lighter but quite a bit heavier on your wallet). You can also look at the Gore-tex website for other rain jackets that use Gore-tex. I know i could have just opened up a can of worms sayint that Gore-tex is the way to go but hey NASA puts it in the mulit million $ space suit so must be onto something.

That is going to be hard but what i would do is take what you just told all of us and ask a backcountry.com sales rep through the Chat Now option and they can maybe find you something.

If you have the Order # in your order status area talk with backcountry through Chat Now they will be able to help you. If not still talk with them they will help you along, they are amazingly helpful.

if its wider than 17 inches it wont fit.

Yeah the removable stays are nice and the suspension system is a good way to go. Adding a little weight on the pack is a good place to ad it. Even though you have a lbs or 2 more it will be easier to carry then 3 or 4 lbs less because of the more comfortable pack. Im also an ultra light backpacker but still use a good pack because it is just more comfortable and dont notice the 3 extra pounds it really feels like there is 5 less pounds on my back. Its like sure you could wear sandals and be light to but your not going to move better.

nothing its just smaller about 20% smaller. So you pay more money. It depends what size means to you both are really nice items.

I think these will be good for any cold weather. I have cold hands and at 13F my hands were over heated with these. Get one size up if your going to wear glove liners. At 50% on bomber gloves you should be good to go. If they dont work send them back to the GOAT they have an awesome return policy!

if your careful it will but i wouldnt recomend it. That is going to be a little over powering for a stove this size.

by the time you throw your forks, cups and mugs in i dont think that it will. But the dimensions of this stove are 4x5x3 and the dimensions of the Dualist are 6.4 x 5.9 inches. So if you have the Dualist already do some measurements and see what you come up with but i doubt it. Either way at 4x5x3 it will fit in lots of places!

If the size is not their they dont have it laying around some place. I dont think that there is even a small in this hat i think the lowest is a medium

They might not even be able to ship them due to regulations. But use Chat Now they will be able to give you a price and tell you for sure if they can or not.

Osprey includes an interior pocket for an AquaSource ReCurve hydration pack that fits down your pack or horizontally on top of your gear, and the ReCurve hydration pack can also be turned into its own backpack with the sleeping pad straps.

I dont know the size but i believe it comes with its own special hydration bladder so you dont need to buy one. If not a standard 100oz one will work fine. If that helps at all.

Try using Chat Now and ask them. But im guessing not untill the new models come out.

Try storing it inflated with the valve open will get rid of the moisture. It is never a good idea to leave it in there. So if you store it flat with the valve open it will work its way out.

Lot of places carry them like REI, Joe or if you have a Fred meyer around they sell them too. Any outdoors store will carry them or order a few from the GOAT

If you are melting snow for yourself this does ok the problem is that the whole system works on convection, Hot water rising cold water going down. When melting snow the convection idea stops a little so it takes longer than a pan or pot for melting snow. The jetboil really focuses the heat on the bottom. So if its just you or maybe one other person you will be fine. Melting snow for a group your gonna have it running alot.

As far a weather or altitude im not real sure if you up in the mountains in the winter i would use a different option. but thats just me im sure other gearheads will tell you something different.

easy answer is no.

It really is a matter of what you want they are really close. I would say Salomon, i ride lots of Burton stuff and you kinda pay a little premium for the name. So more for your money i say Salomon. The mission is a good binding tho

I have never used Polyester Ripstop fabric but they claim that it is waterproof, the seams are not sealed so i would do that myself if i was going to be using it in the rain. Get it try it out and if it doesnt work the Goat has a 30+ year return policy so your good!

Yes that the beauty of the Extendable Range which is from 57-125cm

I have a pair of Leki poles and my complaint is that the "super lock system" is not to super they work by a stopper getting friction on the inside of the pole and that causes it to move on a screw and expand creates more friction and eventually locks down. The problem is that the stopper moves around on the screw and sometimes get so lose that it cant build up friction and therefore you have to take the poles apart and do it by hand. Its a real pain this is a problem i seem to have all the time until i figured out how to do it i was lost so really i would recommend a different pole. But thats just me I dont hear many complaints so it could just be my poles. So as far as i know they havent improved that system but i think complaints are isolated.

With the goat you never know so BUY NOW! But all that aside I believe its part of the Memorial Day sale so i would think till Monday. Use Chat now and they can be really helpful.

I would go with the 65 its better to have a little extra room than to not have enough. So go with the 65 and be safe. I do alot of ski mountaineering and it takes a good amount of gear.

yea it really does weigh that much! Dont ask me why. http://www.lowealpine.com/eng/prod_app_det.php?catid=8&itemid=284&type=man

I think you should get a size 10. They fit really true to size and if you wear them enough the fabric between your toes will strech a little. I have owned 2 different pairs i love them!

Yea you should be fine I am 6 2 and 225 lbs with very muscular legs and wear a size 14-15 and I fit into the xl pretty comfortably with hiking or snow boots on. So with smaller legs a L should work if your using bit boots though just get a XL your not adding much weight and no extra cost. Save yourself from maybe having to return them. They dont fall down very easily due to how they are made and the strap at the top. I would go for the XL but a L could still work

get the medium trust me it will give you a littl emore room for more layers but still not be to big

im 6 2 and 225 and got an xl if that helps at all

Small or medium it fits a little small im 62 225 and got an xl which fits nicely except around my neck with layers

I have this tent and im 6'3" and 225 and this tent is perfect for me you will have no problems at 6'2"

Try the Burton Driver X
