Gaiter Fan
Outdoor Research Crocodiles Gaiter - Men's
August 8, 2007
Fantastic product! Very durable, easy to adjust, and water/snow resistant. It actually kept my feet completely dry even when standing in water shin-high in my mountaineering boots. Only complaint is they fit very tight over plastic boots. It does work, but the OR Expedition Gaiters are probably a better fit. Still, awesome product. Great fit over hiking/backpacking boots!

Mexcillent Jacket
Mountain Hardwear Alchemy Softshell Jacket - Men's
August 8, 2007
This jacket is the best jacket I have. It is warm enough for snowy days and light enough for cool spring days. Wind doesn't bother me and a light sprinkle doesn't stop me. It is strecthy and breathable making it perfect for aerobic activities in cold weather. Only thing is, when I wear this while eating mexican food, it smells like mexican food for about a week. I'm not sure if that is a complaint or a praise!

Chacos = Foot Lovin'
Chaco ZX/2 Unaweep Sandal - Men's
August 8, 2007
So these are definitely the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. The molded footbed naturally supports the foot and the straps are anatomically placed to keep from rubbing the small bones in the top of the foot. Nothing but sweetness for your feet.

These socks provide great cushion and are super comfortable. A little hard to get on the first time, but man they fit like a glove! Tough is right, I feel that these have top quality construction and a also pleasing to the eye! They are tough to beat!

Toasty Freshness
Patagonia Capilene 2 Bottom - Men's
August 8, 2007
Wore these great pants on a glacier for 5 nights under either a softshell or hardshell only. Stayed nice and warm and dry. They have a great fit and are very comfortable. Not itchy or abrasive like some other base layers. Oh, and they didn't even smell bad at the end of the trip!

Amazing product!
Kavu Synthetic Strapvisor
August 8, 2007
I have had one of these bad boys for probably 4 years now. I wear it hiking, climbing, kayaking, even mountaineering under my helmet. They look good, are easy to adjust, and are comfortable. I throw mine in the wash every once in a while and it looks brand spanking new. Great sun protection!

Only good as a liner. Period.
Patagonia Lightweight Glove Liners
August 8, 2007
As much as I would like to give this glove the lowest rating, it does do its job when it is just being used as a liner. That said, this glove is oversized (get a size smaller) and falls apart if you even sneeze too hard. I ripped holes in every single finger on both hands and in the palms after only 4 days of use. I had used them under a mitten while on a glacier, but when I took the mittens off to tie my boots or rig my rope, the gloves were toast. Snags on velcro and pulls apart too.

Perfect for General Mountaineering.
Grivel G12 Crampon
August 8, 2007
This crampon is great! Glaicers, snowslopes, ice...this takes it all. It is easy to adjust with its macro and mirco adjustments and once it's on the boot, it stays on. The antibot plates keep the snow off the bottoms so you always have points making contact with snow/ice. You can even ice climb in them, even with the horizontal front points. They look pretty sweet too.

Lightweight, Bright, Awesome
Petzl Tikka Plus Headlamp
August 8, 2007
This headlamp is fantastic! It offers 4 different light settings: High, medium, economy (to save battery life in those critical situations where battery life is key) and flash. It is small and lightweight, but it is really bright. I have used it from backpacking, to mountaineering, to even light caving! The battery life is great too, even on the high setting!
