Marmot Ama Dablam Down Jacket - Men's
October 20, 2009
No baffles, sewn through construction. Its nice, but definitely a lightweight puffy. Heavier than the patagucci down sweater though.

MSR Reactor Stove
July 10, 2009
Short backpacking trips, ease of use, and girlfriend?
buy a remote canister stove, msr wind pro, snow peak bf, brunton vesta, optimus stella, etc.
Don't get me wrong, I like my liquid fuel stove and my ultralight canister top stove, but there is a time and place for everything, and if I owned one stove it would be a remote canister with a fuel preheat coil. Funny that its the one kind I dont have.
oh, I'd buy the snow peak bf, large burner if it was my money

Anyone had the chance to set this up next to a black diamond lightsabre and make a call on the correct choice? Without seeing them the default goes to BD, but would love a first hand view...

In a general sense digital beacons are easier to use in an emergency situation, and are superior in multiple burial scenarios.Get a digital beacon.
