Bio:
I'm currently stuck in the Midwest and the only thing that keeps me focused through my school work is knowing that my next trip is just around the corner. I love the beauty of the natural earth, there is nothing better than breaking free of the stress and structure of jobs and school and hustle and bustle of city life, to be free in the mountains and waters that are rough and rugged!
My new goal is to try white water kayaking...

CamelBak Hydrobak Hydration Pack - 1.5L

I used a different camelbak on a winter hike and the tube completely frozen... I agree that you have to find a good way to insulate the tube because otherwise you will be carrying dead weight and be thirsty

The North Face Rucky Chucky GTX XCR Trail Running Shoe - Women's
May 11, 2009
This pair does have that very same problem. I've had mine for about a month now and already they are starting to get holes in them. The soles are very sturdy, it's a shame that they have to go to waste because the mesh wont hold up. I was hoping to use them as my trail running shoes, but it looks like they won't make it to the summer.

Merrell Chameleon Arc GTX Shoe - Women's
May 11, 2009
I feel like they run pretty normal. They are really true to size, I am an 8.5 in street shoes and an 8.5 in these was perfect.

The North Face Cat's Meow Sleeping Bag: 20 Degree Climashield Prism - Women's
May 11, 2009
To my knowledge, the women's model is fit so that there is more room for women's hips and there is more padding in the feet since women tend to have colder toes than men. I wouldn't be offended though.

I want a dry bag to store my DSLR camera in because I would really like to take it on future expeditions. Would you trust this bag to keep such an expensive electronic safe?
