teleknees

tried the zealot and verdict on the same day and those are great for the deep pow, this is great for all around lovin'. compared to a k2 I felt like they are more responsive and hold their edge more. seems like everyone is going WIDER these days so as far as wideness goes your not going to be the top of the class but these still do great floating in the stashs you find along the way. these coupled with a BD 01 will make your 09 season epic.

why carry a crap load of jackets when this does it all? this is seriously replacing so many of my beloved jackets. FACT: thats a problem because i dont want to let anything go out of my closet. plenty warm enough for me even though the SV is where your going to want to lean towards. i do like how this one has the shorter cut near the waist, hate feeling like im wearing a dress in these arc jackets.

if these aren't on my feet when I leave, I go NUTS! Great fit...they don't heat up like other merinos, they actually do what merino is suppose to. warm, dry, comfy...

totally proved my wife wrong. this and the 22 totally carried everything we needed for our trip of 8 days. Super nice features, the pack straps for the pack option are very comfortable and supportive. Just a super solid piece, sure I could have spent the same and gotten a 6 piece set of a ton of junk...but this thing is gonna last forever.

Doesn't have that nasty itchy feel like most wool, just straight up soft. Cut is nice, good comfortable fit and the inside of the sleeve by the wrist has this cuff which is really nice. When you put your hand through it's weird at first but definitely a good call. The logo is placed in a good spot too, I don't feel like I have a goat plastered all over me. This came at a good time cuz I was sick of rockin' my Arcteryx softshell every where I go, time for something low key but that doesn't skimp on quality. Pockets are great too, one thing to know is that the collar rides REALLY high, like up to my nose. If that's not high for you then I guess I'm weird, I dig it though. Pockets have super soft lining, NICE job you guys! you nailed it!

Waterproof, true to size, and the zippers are well placed. I wish I would have gotten the full zip, but do what works for you. Great ski pant also, super light, no bulk. Snag it for sure!

Bring a little bottle of like Chulua or Tabasco and this is good. Most dehydrated have good taste but this was just bad. With some hot sauce it was all good though.

I liked eating this with Chulua hot sauce. It was pretty good by itself. Just stay away from their chicken gumbo, that okra will kill you! Great company of food though, easy to make, of course, and a good taste.

Great boat, It was very easy to maneuver and liked how long it was. Very good tracking and tons of storage space for whatever.

These are going to be your traditional stiff momma boot that is very burly and solid. the sole is your classic Vibram which is totally burly. They support very well on the trail and the lugs are great for gripping. I actually took them running with a pack on the other night to train for Rainier and it may sound weird but they were really great for that. Waterproof fabric, solid lacing, great boot. Danner may not be noticed like all the other brands, but it seriously is a killer company with solid boots. I would wear these over a The North Face, Merrel, Vasque, Asolo boot any day.

know that the probe isn't like super high quality, but at least its something. Shovel is very durable and light so if your looking for a sweet combo, go for it! I like that its fixed because i do snow caves.
