Bio:
I live in Wyoming with my wife and our Alaskan Husky. We are in to UL backpacking, long day hikes, running on roads and trails, and telemark skiing.
We are always pushing it farther, faster, and lighter.

The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Men's
March 1, 2010
I have a redpoint optimus and a thunder jacket that I occasionally wear under my TNF Heathen Gore-tex Proshell. The Thunder jacket lacks a hood, but otherwise is definitely warmer than the redpoint optimus. I say "occasionally" because I usually find that the redpoint optimus or the thunder under a gore-tex shell is just too warm for most things in Wyoming, unless you are just sitting around.

The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Men's
March 1, 2010
The TNF Thunder Jacket definitely has more loft (read: warmer) than the MH Nitrous, but otherwise they are very similar. The MH Nitrous weighs a few ounces less I believe.

The North Face Meso 22 Tent 2-Person 3-Season
January 6, 2010
Trust me, the roof is not the same height on each side. Here is an honest review: you can buy a much better tent for the same weight or less.
