The folding pads are much easier to deal with. Leave the rolling for other things.

Sea To Summit Pocket Trowel - Reinforced Nylon

Sea To Summit Pocket Trowel - Reinforced Nylon

Rating for this product: 2 February 6, 2010

I'm sending mine back. Haven't even used it, but its clear that it will be more trouble then its worth. To begin with the buttons that you have to press to get to the storage compartment are hard to deal with. However, the main reason I'm returning it, is that the main button that locks it in to place was broken before I even opened the box. No way this would last me while on a thru hike. My recommendation is to stick with a simple cheap trowel with no moving parts.

Arc'teryx Beta SL Jacket - Men's DO NOT USE

Rating for this product: 5 January 19, 2010

I researched many a shell before I finally pulled the trigger on this one. I'm almost positive I made the right decision, I wear this thing almost daily. On hikes, to work, out with friends. Breathable, waterproof, lightweight. It would be nice if it had pitzips. I'm 6'1 190 and the Large fits me great. Here's a pic of my fiancee and I at Floydfest right after a summer shower.

This is a good all around lamp. It may not be the brightest or the most versitile, but it is a good buy. Everyone needs a headlamp and this is a good one to start with.
