Also my most awesome 4 inch thick Big Agnes sleeping pad.
Just interested to hear about what people consider their single favorite piece of gear. Mine is the Sea to Summit back country shower. It's essentially a waterproof stuff sack with a twist shower...
I always bring a map in new/unknown areas. Although with the Gaia GPS app I've never needed them. But electronics fail, or get drop kicked off a cliff. So maps and compass I bring.
Also I think...
Once my jet boil caught fire and the plastic melted. Another time, same trip, my filter clogged and just wouldn't unclog.
The last time I was barefoot outside it was in this beautiful, lush lakeside medow. I kicked off my shoes, looked at all the soft grass, took two steps...and stepped on a bee.
Gotta have...
Hey ladies,
What camp sandals, if any, do you pack. Chacos hurt my ankle (previous surgery). I've got an awesome set of Havainas that are very lightweight like a flip flop with a rear strap. But I'm...
Hi! I'm Naomi. I'll be starting in a couple weeks from the Mexican border. I'm hoping it's not too late of a start. Particularly as I plan on starting slow and working my way up to 25 mile days....
I'm not going to but a new pack for my PCT through hike so I have to decide between my 85L Osprey and my 60L Blacl Diamond. The Osprey is obviously huge (I guide and have to carry a lot of group...

I have a Big Agnes Copper Spur UL HV 1. I've used it and I love it. I've never used the footprint you can buy separately. I generally consider them extra weight and hassle. But on something as long...
Mascara and blush. I also bring some LUSH solid shampoo & conditioner. The perm sounds like a good idea.
You aren't though. Studies of garbage puts and my own experience show that tp does not degrade when buried as we would like it to. I've dug cat holes where the poop is long degraded but the tp...
Thanks for the pic Malto. I have skied stuff like that before, and you're right, it was miserable and dangerous.
I have done week plus self-supported trips on skis in the winter. It's a Hell that...
The skis probably weigh 7 pounds. The boots are very lightweight. Lighter than my hiking boots actually. The number of transitions between skiing and skinning as well as sections of hiking is what...
Being that this is an epic snow year in the Sierras, is anyone thinking of skiing them? I could have a friend ship my skis to Kennedy Meadows. I'm just wondering why I haven't heard of more thru...
