Helly Hansen Blanche Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 12, 2012

This is an awesome jacket for skiing!! It's not quite a shell so it's great for colder temps but it's not a full on down jacket so it works pretty much all winter long. Add layers for the extra cold days or rock it as is with the vents open for those warmer spring skiing days. Plus it has all the pocket and gadgets that you would need.

I've heard all the buzz about running barefoot and ultra light shoes. I've tried on a pair of those shoes that separate the toes and they are not for me. But these are great! No bulky heal to trip over while on the trail. Enough of a sole to not feel every rock I land on top of and super light. I'm very satisfied with my new shoes :)

Rating for this product: 5 August 25, 2010

I just picked up this shirt the other day and it's great for layering. It's so light and soft against your skin. Perfect alone on a warmer day or as a layer mid winter!

Rating for this product: 5 July 31, 2010

I used to just wear a pair of cut offs over some spandex until I got a pair of these. I love them. They are so comfy on long rides and I feel like I can walk into the store for some food without receiving looks from rocking a sweet pair of spandex! I definitely recommend!

So usually I see these bottles and think wow, they are way too over priced! But
I got one from work the other day and I can actually understand why one might want to spend that much on a bottle! They are great. They don't leak and are easy to sip from. Fortunately you can get such a great deal on backcountry.com

I was just on a trip with a bunch of other fellow campers and they all had this tent! It was the perfect 2 person tent for 3 seasons! Plenty of room for two people and some gear. I especially love all the vents! Can't wait to get my own.

I just used this pack for the first time up in Downieville, CA for some long mtn. bike treks. It was perfect. It fits all the tools I needed for what ever problems I came across along the ride as well as helped to keep me hydrated! It fit just great and did'nt move around too much even while down hilling!

Bomber Tent!!!

The North Face Mountain 25 Tent: 2-Person 4-Season

Rating for this product: 5 June 20, 2010

This tent is great! It goes up easily and is bomber in winter conditions. The reflective guylines are great at night. Cause we all trip over the sides of our tents without them there! There is plenty of space for two people. You dont have to worry about rolling on top of your friend in the middle of the night. It's even great in the summer...

Dal Bello boots are amazing

Dalbello Sports Krypton IL Moro T I.D. Ski Boot - Men's

Dalbello Sports Krypton IL Moro T I.D. Ski Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 April 15, 2010

The best thing about Dal Bello's is that they are so customizable that you can adjust them to how you ski. Interchangeable tongues allow you to adjust how stiff they are as well as the wings in side the shell. There are different boot boards depending on what type of performance you are looking for. Bottom line is these boots are great and with a good boot fitter your foot will be loving you. They may feel a bit softer than a traditional race boot at first but once you get use to them you will love them!
