Great Dinner for Campers

Mountain House Rice and Chicken - 2 Serving Entree

Rating for this product: 4 September 9, 2008

Got this for an extended camping trip. Really liked this one. Flavor was great, and meal was filling and satisfying. I really am happy with the improved taste that Mountain House has obviously been working on in their meals.

Tastes Yummy!

Mountain House Blueberry Cheesecake

Rating for this product: 5 September 9, 2008

This is a great addition to a Mountain House dinner while packing. Had this one for a 10 day trip and enjoyed one each night. It was simple to make (like all mountain house meals) and tasted really really good.

Spagetti...REAL spagetti!

Mountain House Spaghetti with Meat Sauce - 2 Serving Entree

Rating for this product: 5 September 9, 2008

I loved this one, for a 10 day trip with a variety of meals this was my FAVORITE. We actually added a little more water than recommended and this turned into almost a soup. It made this even better. I really loved the flavor of this one. GET IT!

Mountain House Lasagna with Meat Sauce - 2 Serving Entree

Rating for this product: 5 September 9, 2008

I got a variety of meals all by Mountain House for a 10 camping trip in Alaska. All were actually good, BUT this one was one of my very favorites. The Flavor was awesome! There was even cheese that was sticking to my fork, proof that real, quality ingredients are being used in these meals. It was great!

Love Them!

Lorpen Merino Midweight Hiker Sock

Rating for this product: 5 September 9, 2008

Got these for my husband. He used them for hiking, and also some warmth for his feet while wearing waders in an Alaskan river. He loved how secure they feel. Super warm and breath great. You have to love the Merino blend in these socks. They are great, not for extreme winter wear, but they are great in cold/cool weather for sure.

Great Liner

Sea To Summit Toaster Microfleece Mummy Liner

Rating for this product: 4 September 9, 2008

This is a great liner. I used this while camping on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska. It was awesome!! I did not want to have to travel with a big heavy/bulky bag so I used this tiny liner to add warmth. It did exactly what I wanted it to do. I was nervous that it would shift around the bag and make me feel all twisted in the bag, but it did not do that at all. It was great.

Try This Treat!!

Mountain House Neapolitan Ice Cream Bar

Rating for this product: 5 September 9, 2008

Got this for a 10 day packing trip that involved a Float Plane to our site. We HAD to pack in all food, and keep weight heavily in mind. Got this for a treat, and was not disappointed! It was really really tasty. Surprisingly tasted JUST like ice cream (after it rehydrated in my mouth :) I suggest this to anyone needing a treat on the trail.

Great snack/calorie booster

Clifbar Clif Bars - 12 Pack

Rating for this product: 4 September 9, 2008

Got this to supplement Mountain House meals on a 10 days camp trip. They taste great, and filled me when I needed it. Just wish there are a variety pack. After a few days, the same old flavor started to get old.

Rating for this product: 4 September 9, 2008

Got this for a 10 day trip. They were surprisingly filling and satisfying. They tasted good too, we got several different kinds and this was not at the top of my list for taste, but was still a good dinner.

Good Bag, Good Price

ALPS Mountaineering Navajo Sleeping Bag: 20F Degree Down

Rating for this product: 4 August 19, 2008

I bought this bag hoping that it would be great for chilly weather camping but light enough to use for mountain camping in the spring/summer. It did not disapoint. It is very light, with great fill that help up great. I would recomend this bag for someone wanting a nice down bag without wanting to pay a fortune. It is a nice bag at a good price.

Photo of this one is WAYYYYYY off!

Nikita Dragons Eye Shirt - Short Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 June 16, 2008

I bought this shirt thinking it would be a cute comfy fit for summer nights. When I first saw it I noticed that my normal size in most shirts equaled a small tent in this one. It was HUGE!!! But, even more than that, "Bleach Yellow" Should read "Banana Yellow" It is a screaming red and yellow nightmare. It could be alright, if you order a size (or two) smaller then normal, and plan on bright yellow!

Killer shorts, weird design

Nikita Babaco Short - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 June 16, 2008

I bought these shorts and was surprised to find the zipper is literally in one of the hand pockets. They really are a VERY cute and stylin short, but will take some getting used to with the functional miss of the zipper in the pocket. Also, I did end up returning them, because within 5 minutes of putting on these shorts, the weird zipper in the pocket split (for no reason, nothing to do with squeezing in too much booty in a small size :) and was not fixable. Thank to this site for having a killer return program, because they took these back with no problem AT ALL! OVERALL THOUGH, very cute shorts!

Nice COMFORTABLE shirt

Nikita Eggfruit Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 June 16, 2008

I bought this shirt for just a comfy around town shirt to wear with leggings or skinnies, and its great. The elastic around the high waist is a little looser than I would like, and would probably suggest sizing down a size in this one. Overall though, this shirt is what I was wanting .

They are a classic.....

Vans Old Skool Lace - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 January 19, 2008

Got these for my husband, he used to have the pair like 15 years ago, while he was in high school. He was stoked to get them again. He loves them just as much as he remembers loving them in high school. Can't argue with a classic!

I love this jacket!

Sessions Elysian Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 January 12, 2008

I got this as a gift for MYSELF, and am so happy that I did! I love it! It fits perfectly, not super tight, but also fitted enough that I still feel like a girl while i am wearing it. One thing that the specs for this jacket does not mention is that that the powder skirt is stashable; whick is nice when you are just wearing it with some cute jeans and a pair of Vans Slipons!! Also, the GoreTex shell combined with the awesome insulation, keeps me nice and warm, without ever overheating! I rarely need to pull open the pit zips, and have never gotten cold in this jacket. I love it, and highly recommend it to anyone who wants quality and cuteness in the same jacket.

Amazing Gloves!!!

Cloudveil Troller Glove

Rating for this product: 5 January 11, 2008

I bought these gloves for my husband as a gift, and he LOVES them!!! He uses them for low bulk gloves while riding, and also (mostly) for shoveling our driveway, and making snowballs with our kids. The Primaloft liner in these is really warm, and super soft. I also got him the Cloudveil liner, and he has used it while riding on really cold days. Overall, this is a great glove. He loves it for the low bulk, and easy movement. (also like the barbed wire stitching)

Nice, loose fitting pants

KR3W K04 Denim Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 11, 2008

Got these for my husband as a gift, and he really likes them. They are heavy weight denim, that could take a full on skid across the pavement and not show any wear. Also, he wanted a looser fit, witnout being really baggy, and these are right what we was looking for. Overall, a nice pant.

Really comfy shoe!!!

Globe Castro Slip-On Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 11, 2008

I got these and LOVE them! Mostly they are very comfy, and also have kept my feet pretty warm and dry on slushy winter days. BUT, be careful on wet ground, you WILL fall right on your ass, if you are not careful...I am serious, these shoes can be slippery!!!! Other than that, they are awesome.

Great jacket, but think twice when picking the size!!!

Alycium Paramount Hooded Jacket - Insulated - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 11, 2008

I bought this jacket for my husband as a gift. When I gave it to him, he LOVED the look and all the features of this jacket. THEN, he put it on..... I had gotten him an XL, which is the size he normally wears in jackets. He has an athletic build and really broad shoulders, making the L jackets too small, most of the time. WELL, not the case with this one. It was HUGE HUGE on him! He serously looked like a little kid in his dads jacket. I am going to exchange, but am almost condisering the M, cause I can't imagine the L would be that much smaller. Great Jacket, he loved it, and still wants one that actually fits .
