Suunto Vector Altimeter Watch

Rating for this product: 5 March 3, 2007

The vector is an excellent watch, i have no had it for about a month and it has survived some brutal riding. IN that month i have skied in Montana, wyoming, ad BC. But all this change in elevation made the alitmeter and compass need to be recalibrated quite frequently. This was a hassle with the altimeter because most of the time I didn't know my altitude, to set it. It is a great watch, looks pretty good as long as you have a pretty thick wrist, otherwise it will look like you strapped a wall clock to you arm

Great all around

Hestra Vertical Cut Freeride Glove

Rating for this product: 5 December 29, 2006

This glove excels in all conditions, it doesn't matter if you are hiking the pow or, like me, you're in the park - they are great. Super warm and cushy inside, and the low profile cuff slips under your coat sleeve easily. I haven't had them long enough to personally comment on durability but they are Hestra, which in my experience, pretty much don't break down. I highly recommend it if you are looking for one glove to do it all.

Good for everything

Adventure Medical Weekender First Aid Kit

Rating for this product: 5 November 29, 2006

It is as great as a snow saw can get. I have already taken it out and dug a pit, extremely easy, although attaching it to a probe is a tiny bit difficult with gloves on. But unlike other snow saws it can actually cut wood, so it doubles as a survival saw when I am out in the backcountry. Buy it you won't be disappointed.

does everything

Leatherman Super Tool 200

Rating for this product: 5 June 2, 2005

It is great although hefty. It is very bulky but that comes with the territory of having that many large and overbuilt functions to a tool. The plier’s handle alone is 4 and a half inches. You never feel like it might break, and will get much use from it.

Comfy and Bullitproof

The North Face Roadhog Cargo Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 June 2, 2005

They are made of an excellent material that is extremely strong, breathable, and has a soft feel. The pockets are velcro with pops open with any weight so dont expect to sub the pants in for a backpack or anything.

worth every penny

Arc'teryx Theta LT Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 7, 2004

These aren't your cheapest pants but they won't let you down. The waterproofing is like wearing rain pants, and they have some of the best windstopping I have ever used. They don't offer much warmth on their own just get some good long underwear and you will love them.

inexpensive and dependable

Gerber Paraframe I Knife

Rating for this product: 5 December 4, 2004

For the price, this knife works quite well. It fits comfortably in my hand and with some use the blade flips out with ease. The blade is razor sharp, you aren't going to be cutting down trees but it gets the job done.
