I used Halfmiles Maps and App with great success. I also loaded his KMZ file (google earth) into my Phones GPS Program (I use Back County Navigator Pro on Android) You will want Halfmiles PCT map...

I returned from the JMT on 7-12. Water was not a concern. A lot of the "seasonal streams" on halfmiles app/maps were dry, but there are so many that are not listed/marked too. Water levels will be...

BrianLe, For android I use Critter maps BackCountry Navigator Pro. I purchased The Accuterra Map Pack a year ago or so for $20. It updated this year to a single layer map, so my entire JMT download...

Im departing on June 30 from Happy Isles. Im permitted @ Rafferty Creek on July 1. So Ive got a long "Dayhike" to pick up my permit by 10 am. :) Hope to see some of you out there.

Awesome to hear. Im in my office dreaming of being on the trail. Only 25..I mean 24 more days to go. Well 23 work days, todays basically over. Its getting closer!

Darn, I figured this is what it was. I was hoping you were going to impress me with a topsy turvy tomato plant hanging on the back of your pack! ;) Still very cool. It all adds to the variation and...

Thank You. Ill keep my eye on the Store!

I think they all breath about as good as a plastic bag when zipped up. Definitely proper use of moving heat & moisture from perspiration out of the garment is going to directly affect your comfort....

Is this like growing potato's behind your ears or what? Otherwise Im picturing a scene in Waterworld with a bottle of dirt and a seedling closely guarded. :p

When are you going to have more of the Starlyte stoves in stock? Not the caldera Models but the standard ones with pot supports.

The weight of the Marmot is about 13.1 oz. I have a Tumalo in the Pertex 2.5. I am very happy with it. I really like the newer versions Cuff cut, as mine is a bit short on me (I need 36-37" sleeves....

You've definitely put some thought into this. Get crackin! Between todays markets, shark tank and kickstarter you should be good to go.

The comfort of any frameless pack will vary depending on weight and where the weight is positioned. I can make a 12# load miserable if the weight is positioned wrong. I can make a 25# load very...

Just to add it to the list, I have used a GoLite Tumalo Pertex 2.5 for the last year with good results. 10.7 oz for an XL and it works as it should. Priced under $100 its hard to beat. The 2012/13...

I like the non-typical design. The tanto blade would suite my uses well, especially with the angle of the handle. the weight didn't come out to bad either. You have plans for a sheath?

Lassen has some great areas as mentioned, as does the Mount Shasta area. Both are very close to one another too. Or you can do that section of the PCT and get them both!

I like where this is headed. I don't think it is for me, but it means people are looking ad trying to fill niches out there. I like my phone because it is my camera, data source, phone and...

Having compared the 2 side by side and spending some time with both, I like the adjusting mechanism on the GG LT4s better. The bolt is beefier and seems to have less adjustment problems (read none...

I find the FREEZER bags to have a horrible taste transferred to the food. Some foods worse than others, specifically nuts. Anyone else notice this? I tend to look for thicker "standard" type bags...

For those that have used both, How does this compare with Geargrams? Ive got a lot of time put into my library and gearlists in geargrams, but I would do it again if this looks to be moving past what...

Did you receive yours yet? Im 6'7" and was going to order a Twin and sleep corner to corner if necessary. Joe talked me out of it. If he gets time He will try to put together an Idea he has for a...

Yes typically it isn't the food that spoils its the oils and greases that do. Your pretty safe under 2 months either way if it is dry. if you leave moisture you leave a place for bacteria and molds...

A WHAT? lol. Thats a Luxury most wont see until a trail town or unless on a very short hike. I pack 2 snickers a day. They get melted. I carry them in my side pouch near the water bottle, this is...

I understand your sentiment. I have grown up with a pole in my hand and lived within yards of some of the best fishing I have found in California streams. I was/am extremely lucky. It sickens me to...

I don't typically keep fish, except when backpacking with my youngest daughter (5). She LOVES fresh trout. I don't usually take the time to make a fire and go through all the motions when doing...
