Nice weekender

Osprey Packs Kestrel 48 Backpack - 2800-2900cu in

Rating for this product: 4 July 4, 2008

I like all the little extras this bag offers- extra pockets on the bag, two top pockets with a mesh inner pocket on the top flap, two pockets on the waistband. It is a nice compact bag for short weekend hikes. Only one thing I don't like is the lack of divider between the sleeping bag compartment and the main compartment. This is a bit annoying (remove your bag and everything falls down to the bottom). Other than that, a great bag.

Buy the full package

Jetboil Personal Cooking System

Rating for this product: 4 May 24, 2008

This is a great stove, but don't buy this cup only model unless you are only planning on boiling water. They also have a pot and cup version that together will save you a bit of money (as opposed to separately) and the pot is very much more versatile. It is a great stove, the fuel lasts a long time, and it is super efficient. Great buy.

Best Purifier around

Hydro Photon SteriPEN Classic Handheld Water Purifier

Rating for this product: 5 May 24, 2008

This is light and works perfectly. I used it for a two and a half week trip with no replacement batteries required, purifying around six liters each day. I had no problems with any sickness (with I suppose would be the only way to tell if it really works or not). As long as you have a container big enough (at the opening and to submerge the whole light) it is an excellent buy.

Nice bag

Exped Woodpecker Sleeping Bag: 20 Degree Down

Rating for this product: 4 May 24, 2008

Very nice bag. Warms up quickly and stays warm. I was never in colder than around high 30's, but being cold was never even a bit of an issue. Slight down feather leak, but that is to be expected and it was not much more than a few feathers per night.
