I use a disposable cub but honestly this is the lightest cup that you can find that isn't disposable. Not sure if this is the same one you are referencing.

You might consider the Tarptent Stratospire 2. It has a ton of room for two people and you can get an additional enclosure for your kid that fits right in the vestibule. I think the stratospire is...
It seems a lot of people are comparing the Notch Li with the Z-Packs Duplex. I don't see these as comparable products at all due to a number of reasons but one main reason being that the Notch is a...
My thoughts exactly. I really was really turned off that it takes 8 stakes to secure the z-packs soloplex or duplex the soloplex. The versatility of having the double wall is very nice. I would...
That OV bag looks pretty decent for the price and has really great reviews. I wouldn't call this bag Cutting corners, I would say it is sacrificing a little weight for a better price. If I hadn't...
yes, I agree with a lot of other people. Rain covers don't work that well. Use a poncho for real hard rain.
Honestly, If weight isn't an issue, you can pack of a pack of three "dry bags" of various sizes at walmart for very cheep. I weighed the largest one and it is like just about 1oz (going off memory)....
I picked this one up from amazon. It only reads to 1 grams but that is plenty specific for me. and it has proven to be quite accurate when comparing between multiple scales and manufacture weights.
IMO the woodsmoke smell is a wonderful thing :D
thank you!
I have to say that before reading this thread I was not a big supporter of alcohol stoves. I have friends that purchased expensive commercially produced alcoholic stoves and have struggled to make...
Dream Hammock LLC makes some of the best hammocks and hammock set ups around for a very reasonable price. They are a small cottage co so they will work with you to make exactly what you need.
That's what I thought too when I first saw them. I prefer their trail runners to give more of the benefits of going "barefoot". But the Trackers are a very good compromise for cold weather hiking to...
I really like the Vivo Tracker FG. I really like the whole "barefoot sole" thing. Super lightweight, supportive, waterproof, and surprisingly good traction... not to mention they look great... not...
Thanks for the review. I just ordered a UGQ Bandit quilt. Hope it preforms as well as your HG quilt.
Just curios, what kind of bottom insulation were you using? Were you using straps to attach it...

These ones look like they are less form fitting than most base layer pants while still being slim enough to wear under hiking pants. I have a pair of sweat pants that are...
I have always been very please with using a good 20 degree bag/quilt and a bivy. I like this one because its super minimal and light weight (8.4oz) and also works quite well. I am very tall skinny...
No battery bank. Just conserve phone battery for when I need it. I have found that I can go more than 4 days without a charge when using it for photos and occasional navigation only. I will have to...
Thanks everyone! I just wanted to post and say that I have made some significant changes to the original list based on various recommendations and suggestions.
the Marmot Essence is my all time favorite. mostly for it's ultra-lightness (6.3oz) and it does a good job of keeping out the water.
Looks like a great set up. You are taking just about the only things you need. You could lose a few things but it seems like those are comfort items that you are worth the weight to you.
I would...
I have found these Cascade Mountain Tech 100% Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles very sturdy and light for the price. I am not one for trekking poles either but they are required for my tent setup so I...
I do like that snowpeak mug but I just cant justify the weight for me. I work in the specialty coffee industry so I would much prefer to bring my camp pour over and some really good coffee, but...
If you are looing for somthing with a slimmer profile this one looks pretty promising. While it doesn't look 100% waterproof it does look like it would hold up pretty well in a downpour.
