Therm-a-Rest Ridge Rest Sleeping Pad

Rating for this product: 2 September 13, 2004

The ThermARest Ridge Rest is my first sleeping pad and I was sorely unimpressed on a recent trip. Our tents were set on a fairly flat section of a sand dune. It provided very minimal support and I tossed and turned constantly. I've learned that you definitely should not rely on just this pad to make you comfortable.

Excellent Product

Petzl Tikka Plus Headlamp

Rating for this product: 5 September 13, 2004

The Tikka Plus is truly amazing. 4 levels of light (high, medium, low, strobe) in such a compact and comfortable package. Light is a pale while color. Effective distance is likely more than enough for most camping situations. Used it while cooking, getting ready for bed, walking, and yes...even the bathroom. This hands-free light is outstanding.

Kelty Light Year Sleeping Bag: 25 Degree Down

Rating for this product: 4 September 13, 2004

Recently purchased this bag in preparation for a kayaking/camping trip in the San Francisco Bay area. Overnight weather grew chilly and extremely moist. Despite concerns with down bags and wet conditions, I did not feel cold. Major plus is the packability of the bag. I can stow it in my backpack's sleeping bag compartment with space to spare.
