That was a good deal backwoods had going. You had to be quick to get in on it though or your order would go through only to find out they were out of stock.

This is Marlo. She loves to hike, swim, play catch and go for rides. Her favorite thing to do is probably playing frisbee though. This would be my favorite picture of her if only that stick wasn't...

My dog sleeps almost always winds up sleeping in the tent with me. She stays "on guard" all night. She'll stay outside the tent if I don't let her in but she is constantly alerting to noises. About...

My dog (a lab) goes with me everytime I go out. I'm hike mainly in Texas and the temps don't usually get too cold. The lowest I've been out in is about 19 degrees. I brought an extra pad (piece of...

Depending on water availability I'll bring either a 3L or 2L platy and 1 or 2 water bottles similar to the Aquafina bottles. I have several nalgenes but rarely if ever carry one. My dog on the other...

NECCO makes a couple different candies that are similar to a butterfinger minus the chocolate. They make a Chick O Stick (has tiny coconut flakes on the outside) and also a peanut butter log which...

TarpTent Contrail

I use 2 and they have saved me from a fall numerous times. I suppose one would be better than none if you are comfortable using it. The consensus seems to be that most people that try them seem to...

I carry a couple of Photon Freedoms (one red for inside tent and one yellow as a general emergency backup). If you want something a little more substantial the iTP A3 EOS Upgrade is a great little...

I normally hike in a trail runner and use cheap flip flops for camp shoes. I don't usually have to worry about water crossings but have a trip planned that will have many. I plan on taking my Teva...

Gratz. Best of luck to ya.

Just wanted to add my recent experience with the Contrail. I just picked up a used one a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't seam sealed so I set it up in the yard and took care of that. We had a hard...

Snickers, Payday, M&M's and Starburst are all good but my favorite is probably Chick-o-Sticks...if I can find 'em.

Thanks. Just subscribed for a year. My email confirmation said $9.99 too (instead of the $14.99 claimed at the online checkout).

Yeah, I planned one. Like you said, a rare opportunity and I couldn't pass it up. I headed out to the Four Notch area and set up camp near Hidden Lake. Unfortunately there was no snow to speak of but...

I can't say that I was off trail due to an injury but I can say that an injury got me on trail. I was injured and started hiking as part of my ongoing recovery. I originally had 2 ruptured disc and a...

Started with alcohol and changed to the Coleman F1 UL canister stove. I recently tried going back to alcohol for solo use and think I will stick with that. I'll stay with the canister stove for...

I'm 6'5 and have been using a BA Seedhouse SL1. It's a tight fit though and the front entrance is a pain. I just switched over to a TarpTent Contrail and like it a lot. I'll probably be purchasing a...

Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, Kelty Triptease. Amazon has it for about $12. If you can find another $12-13 worth of stuff you can use you'll get free shipping.

I use hiking poles as I find them helpful. If you don't like them or they don't do anything to help you then there's no point in forcing yourself to use them. Just get a pole from Henry.

Contact lens solution bottle has worked great for me.

I owned a tent that had that smell to it. I tried hand washing it with NikWax and the waterproof coating started coming off. The tent was pretty much ruined but thankfully the manufacturer replaced...

Grats on the new tent Stick. Looks like a winner.
