KEEN Targhee ll Hiking Shoe - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 July 14, 2008

I've had a pair for over a year now and has performed nicely. The waterproof feature has come in handy many times crossing streams. I had an issue with the rubber coming undone on my original pair and got a replacement pair with no issues.

Wow, when they say a six person tent they really mean it. Lots of room, good little storage nets, easy setup. Go for it and invite your entire neighborhood, plenty of room.

Worth It

Jetboil Group Cooking System with 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot

Jetboil Group Cooking System with 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot

Rating for this product: 4 July 7, 2008

I took the jetboil on its first outing this weekend and it performed very well. Its amazing how fast you can bring the water to a boil.

Easy setup, a little tipsy though, I made sure the kids stayed well away from it, but overall excellent purchase.

Nice Blade, Uncomfortable Handle

CRKT Tiny Tighe Breaker Knife

CRKT Tiny Tighe Breaker Knife

Rating for this product: 3 July 7, 2008

Overall good knife, just remember if you need to cut something with an iron grip on the handle it can hurt. The handle is not rounded and tends to poke into your hand.

Great Bag

Kelty Little Creek Junior Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Thermolite HL-H4

Rating for this product: 4 July 7, 2008

Great bag, I have a 5 yr old and 3 yr old. The 3 yr old gets lost in it and probably doesn't generate enough body heat to keep warm on the cold 40 degree nights, but its perfect for the 5 year old.

CamelBak Hydrobak Hydration Pack - 1.5L

Rating for this product: 5 July 7, 2008

I bought this for my 3 and 5 yr olds, they love it. Dad no longer has to carry their water, they do it on their own and they're happy to do so. I would recommend buying some replacement mouth pieces- kids tend to chew on it like bubble gum and it tears.

Great Product, lots of fun

Kelty Journey Kid Carrier

Kelty Journey Kid Carrier

Rating for this product: 5 July 3, 2008

I've had the backpack for 2 years now and loved it. Great opportunity to spend some quality time with your kids and tote them around. Straps are comfortable for the person carrying the load and the child inside. My son spent many hours napping high above dad.

My only recommendation is to buy a mirror (kelty sells one) so you can see how your precious load is doing without cranking your neck around. Also, get the sunshade for those sunny days.

Kids love it

Kelty Pathfinder Kid Carrier

Kelty Pathfinder Kid Carrier

Rating for this product: 5 September 5, 2006

Highly recommended, I carry my 1.5 year old all the time for weekend hikes, and if the hike goes on too long I can always throw the 3 year old in for a quick break. Comfortable on the shoulders and sturdy for those tough hikes. I do however highly recommend the sun shade and the rear view mirror accessory to protect the precious cargo onboard.

Awesome Laptop Bag

Timbuk2 Laptop Tote

Timbuk2 Laptop Tote

Rating for this product: 5 September 1, 2006

Great bag, love the layout, simplicity and quality material. I was concerned at first as I had to buy the XL tote due to my laptop, but the slim design kept the bag to a low profile. Plenty of room to stuff papers and power cord yet still have that small bag feel. Excellent product.
