Great Tent for all conditions

Black Diamond Skylight Tent 3-Person 3-Season

Black Diamond Skylight Tent 3-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 5 March 23, 2009

This tent has been great so far. We've used it year round in Utah. Recently we were out in the mountains and the forecast said rain. After about 4 hours of rain, it turned over to snow. The following morning we had a layer of ice covering the tent and a few inches of snow but there was no condensation on the inside or leaking. Very impressed. No problems setting up with the poles being on the inside of the tent, you get used to it after the first time. I definitely would suggest buying another tube of Silnet right when you buy this tent. I tried to be conservative but in order to cover the seams adequately 2 tubes were needed...you dont want to be in the middle of seam sealing waiting for another tube in the mail. As almost everyone has mentioned, 2 people and SOME gear is a comfortable fit but 3 people is pushing friendships to the limit.

Great for long hikes or snowy conditions

Ruffwear Bark'n Boots Grip Trex - Set of 4

Ruffwear Bark'n Boots Grip Trex - Set of 4

Rating for this product: 4 March 23, 2009

We have a 3 legged yellow lab so we do everything we can to protect his feet. We had to try a couple different sizes but once we got the right ones they worked great. At first the dog is going to walk/run a little goofy because of something being on their feet not because they are too tight. Let them break the shoes in and get used to them, after 15 minutes retighten the straps and there shouldnt be a problem.

Great toy that will last

Ruffwear Gourdo Dog Toy

Ruffwear Gourdo Dog Toy

Rating for this product: 5 March 23, 2009

We have a lab that loves to chew...ANYTHING. We have bought numerous toys and the only ones that still remain in the backyard are this Ruffwear Gourdo Dog toy and a few lacrosse balls. The rope frayed after about a month from him carrying it around but we got it more for its durable rubber "floating properties"

Climbing shoes that dont hurt!

Five Ten Siren Lace-up Climbing Shoe - Women's

Five Ten Siren Lace-up Climbing Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 March 23, 2009

Great climbing shoes! I typically do sport climbing and can stay in them all day without having any discomfort. They were great right out of the box. I have slightly narrow feet and I am a size 8.5 in street shoes so I bought an 8.5 in the Sirens and 2 years later I havent regretted it.

Dont go camping without it

Jetboil PCS Bundled w/ Companion Cup

Jetboil PCS Bundled w/ Companion Cup

Rating for this product: 5 March 23, 2009

Definitely a must have for camping/backpacking. Its really easy to use and I must say that it heats up a lot quicker than I expected. I have yet to turn the gas up all the way because I have burned a few meals just having it halfway open. The insulating sleeve did melt in a couple areas so before I fire it up I make sure that I pull the sleeve up at least a half an inch above the metal ring. Overall really pleased and I definitely recommend the maintenance kit when buying this system.

Great all around

Nordica Speedmachine 14 Ski Boot - Men's

Nordica Speedmachine 14 Ski Boot - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 March 23, 2009

I love these boots. I've been skiing in them for 2 seasons now and they have never given me a problem. They were a great fit out of the box and then when I threw in my custom footbeds they were even better. The flex is perfect. Great control on every surface and there is enough give when your coming off of a hard landing.

Arc'teryx is the best

Arc'teryx Patriot SV Jacket - Women's

Arc'teryx Patriot SV Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2008

I love this jacket. It's warm but doesnt have the bulk that others do. I wish it had an MP3 player pocket as well as pit zips. Unzipping the jacket on a powder day isnt really an option unless you want a chest full of snow. Otherwise, awesome Arc'teryx quality.

The only jacket you'll ever need...if you can afford it

Arc'teryx Fission SV Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2008

This jacket is so warm and comfortable. I wear it skiing the majority of the time and its so light it doesnt feel like I have a big bulky jacket on. Great for around town too. I'm a huge fan of Arc'teryx so call me biased. For sizing purposes, I'm 5'5" 130lbs and the medium fits me perfectly.

Nice oakley glasses for reasonable price

Oakley Fives 3.0 Sunglasses - Polarized

Oakley Fives 3.0 Sunglasses - Polarized

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2008

I love these glasses. I have had all 3 versions of the Fives. I will admit these took some getting use to for me because the older fives were a bit more round. I guess everyone is moving to the square look right now. I have a small face and these fit great. I really like the polarized lens, there is a noticeable difference with clarity.

Great Arc'teryx Ski Pants

Arc'teryx Theta SK Pant - Women's

Arc'teryx Theta SK Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2008

These are a great pair of ski pants once you get the right size. I wasn't really a fan of bibs, especially when having to go to the bathroom but this bib is the best one I've tried, especially for those deep powder days! I had some difficulty when I was trying to find out what size I was. As others have mentioned, these pants do run short and tight. I am 5'5", 130lbs and the medium was the length that fit me. There is definitely some extra room in the rear but I'd rather that than the small which was noticably shorter and tighter.

Oakley Minute 2.0 Sunglasses - Transition Lens

August 26, 2008

I just heard this answer from an Oakley rep. Apparently they dont work in a car because of the roof over your head. It prevents the sunlight from hitting the glasses the way its needed in order for the lens to darken. Even though you get the light coming in from the windshield and windows, something about not having the right amount of UV rays hitting them prevents them from changing. If you had a convertible or a sunroof that you were directly under, that was the only instance they would work. She said many people returned the glasses because they were constantly squinting in their car. I was very interested in getting a pair of the transitional lens but that turned me away from them because I am in the car a lot. Hope that helps.
