Yes, Dyneema fabric is inherently very water resestant. Some will say waterproof, but ive heard it can still wet through. I don't think I would SOLELY relay on it to keep your stuff dry. ESPECIALLY...

I agree! but you better be ready to hit the buy it now button! especially around this site... good deals go very fast..

I just got a pair of Opossum down gloves. Ive heard good things about their wet performance, haven't tried them out yet. I plan to pair them with good ol' dishwashing type rubber gloves.

I agree, it is border line a sickness cutting weight and gear shopping!

Very good point about exercising to get stronger. Not enough people recommend that!

I need to replace some cotton base layers in my gear closet. I’ve been reading a lot about Merino Vs Capaline. Seems like Cap is slightly better. It’s honestly 50/50...

Anyhow I think I’ve...

I wonder how that Traveller bag is?

Ive been rethinking my summer weather sleep system. I have a army surplus woobie/poncho liner. I have no idea what the temperature rating is, doubt it has an official rating. If I had to guess I...

Looking for the two pads

thanks

I stumbled on guac powder near the taco kits in the grocery store. they are like $1 compared to the Mountain House type brands high price.

Just for giggles I went to recreation.gov to see how it the site works. None of the camp sites ive looked at are even listed? Only Twelve Mile, Hurricane River, and Little Beaver are able to be...

I have to add another vote for the NU25! It is awesome! I wanted to get a headlamp with red light AND USB rechargeable. the NU25 is about the only option and its under $30! IMO it sets the bar for...

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I am still in the hunt for the women’s long s2s. Seems to be sold out everywhere. No rush, my season is pretty much over until spring.

I have a Ridgerest and a...

Yep! But if I had to be Nitpicky its a really subdued yellow. It’s not quite as loud as I like.

Lol

I’ll give that a try. I recently started using a Gossamer Gear Gorilla. It uses a removable foam pad for the back ventilation. It also doubles as a sitpad

I ended up getting the redesigned Gorilla in yellow!

It’s awesome. I love the huge mesh pocket.

It has made me rethink the way I pack.

Very nice. I noticed that too.

The women’s is the same length as the regular xlite i am used to but an additional 5” wider!

I am on a quest to find the most comfortable sleep pad with weight as second consideration.

I use a Xlite now. I can't seem to get the pressure right. I am a side sleeper, I feel like I either get...
