Backcountry.com Long Handled Spoon

September 17, 2009

The bowl measures exactly 1 teaspoon. I checked it by pouring water from two different sets of half and one teaspoon measuring spoons (4 different measuring spoons). It holds ONLY two half-teaspoons or one whole teaspoon.

Useful everywhere

Petzl Tactikka Plus Headlamp

Petzl Tactikka Plus Headlamp

Rating for this product: 5 August 28, 2009

We use these regularly at home - working on the car at night, under the house, emergencies, power outages; and traveling everywhere, especially in parts of the world where the power goes out regularly leaving you in a strange place in total darkness for an indeterminate time, and on the trail. Completely indispensable. A MUST HAVE ITEM.

Only one entrance/exit

MontBell Breeze Dry-Tec U.L Sleeping Bag Cover

MontBell Breeze Dry-Tec U.L Sleeping Bag Cover

Rating for this product: 4 July 17, 2009

It's hard to see in the single photo provided, but there's no entry/exit closure like a zipper or velcro, except going out the top of the bag. That was a deal breaker for me. Everything else about the sleeping bag cover was great and would have been perfect, except for that one detail. I was sorry to have to return it.

GoLite Shangri-La 3 Floor

July 6, 2009

6 inches tall bathtub sides, hexagonal shaped - 6 sided - 55 sq.ft. floor, according to GoLite's website. I think the actual length of each side is approximately 4+ ft as the floor is adequately and comfortably large, but not huge.

Clifbar Clif Shot Bloks - 18 Pack

Rating for this product: 5 June 20, 2009

Amazing little things. Ate 4 total with water over many hours. Worked very well, no fatigue, no digestive difficulties. Mountains in India - 6 hours hiking up, spending 7+ hrs on a mountaintop in wet, icy, freezing cold conditions, and getting down again. I only had water as my other nutrient as the available food options didn't work out for me.

Mountain Hardwear Zipper Repair Clamp

June 20, 2009

1) yes, zippers can be replaced...at home. This kit doesn't replace a broken zipper in the field.
2) The most common problem with zipper failure is a worn out slider. If the zipper coils are not meshing together properly, it is usually because the inside of the slider is worn. This kit makes easy repairs until you can get home and replace the zipper.

Bear Vault - current approved areas

Bear Vault BV500 Bear Resistant Food Canister

Bear Vault BV500 Bear Resistant Food Canister

Rating for this product: 4 June 20, 2009

BearVaults are NOT approved for use in the NY area because there is a bear in the Marcy Dam area of the Adirondacks in upstate New York that has learned to open BearVault food containers. BearVaults are approved for use everywhere except the area encompassing the Lake Colden/Marcy Dam corridor and the Johns Brook valley in the Adirondacks.
As far as I know, the Adirondacks bears are not holding classes for bears in other areas.
