    Default Online hiking gear

    Howdy folks, it's almost that time of year again and I'm looking to buy a new pack. I know there a site that sells most name brand packs etc at almost half of what most retail sites list them, but can't recall the name. Little help?
    I need to upgrade packs from my GoLite breeze to something with a substantial hip belt and able to carry 40-50lbs. Also need to buy a cheap 20degree bag, as my sleeping bag, thermarest and cookset were stolen while I was in Biloxi volunteering. Thanks in advance for any tips, be well!

    Yup I second that comment.
