I ended up with a job at Isle Royale and have put on a lot miles for this place. I was tired of packing so much stuff and having to measure out portions, yada, yada. I tried this stuff just to give it a whirl. All I have to say is oh my god! If you haven't tried this food, you need to! It's perfect for solo or small party excursions and you get all the food you need and it tastes just as good as anything you can make at home. That and when you read the ingredients, you know what they all are!

I have looked all over for a dehydrated salsa to take camping with me and now I have! This stuff is great and tasty, not to mention easy to travel with. I tried it on a whim, and I will never go camping without it!

I used these poles while hiking across Isle Royale. I had a tip from another friend who said that trekking poles really help and they did. I enjoyed them and I can't wait to test them in the snow! That is the best part about these poles is that they are easily converted from one season to another. Very affordable for a college student or a hiker on a budget.

I used this bag in addition to another one when winter camping and I slept so well that I hardly knew I was not in my own bed at home. The loft is great and I really like the fact that the inside is a softer fabric that wicks away moisture from your body. I am excited to use it for trips to the Apostle Islands and the Boundary Waters this spring, summer, and fall.
