I agree with this philosophy for rain wear. Maybe the purpose is more to keep you warm than keep you dry. I cant notice a difference in breath-ability from 10 to 20k ratings etc. IMO, the only...

I never replaced them. After a few hundred miles they become very thin, but perfectly formed to your foot. I prefer a flat shoe with minimal support/and cushioning so they worked out well for me.

When I get warm I simply pull the zipper down a little. Unless it is downpouring/sideways rain this works fine for me.

I used to have a 20k/20k waterproof/breathable jacket with pit zips, and...

Has anyone here used any of these before?

The garmin oregon series has many of the same features as the montana, but smaller in size and price.

I have only used a few different packs, but the ULA ohm has been my favorite. Easily the most comfortable pack I have ever carried. It is a little smaller and lighter than what you are looking at,...

- small leds for camp/map reading, large led for trail finding
- easy to use, starts on low settings
- cr123...

I second the breathable shoe, with goretex socks for warmth if needed. (check out sealskinz).

A really breathable shoe, with lightweight socks dries very quick even wearing them through a creek...

I have an Outdoor research helium. 6.4 oz in a large.

Very minimal and light, but it gets the job done.

I remember seeing a small cottage company that made a remote canister alcohol stove, but I can not think of the name anymore...

Ring any bells?
