I've had these for 2 seasons and love them. Very warm, great for big powder days (deep bib w/good closure), and the palms are more durable than any other glove I've used- I usually go through 1-2 pairs per season as I ski the Snowbird tram most days and constantly holding your skis in line can throw your gloves a beating. These hold-up well.

Warm, not bulky, packs well, nice design. I take this everywhere. One of the top 10 things in my closet.

I've always loved Mountain Hardware gear, but this is the first piece I've owned that I'm mixed on. It is well-made and warm, but it fits me like a life preserver (I'm 6'/170 lbs. and have a Large). Almost too bulky to wear under a shell. Personally, I'd size down one or consider a lower-profile option like the Patagonia Down Sweater Vest.

These are my new favorite socks- bumped Smartwool off the top...they hold up better after multiple trips through the wash/dryer and they do a good job of keeping your feet dry.

Great for warmer days on the mountain, camping, hiking, fishing, and around town. Surprised at how water/wind-proof it is.

I've got these in the 183 and ski them 70% of the time...perfect all-mountain/all-condition ski...great in powder, but can also do a good job in crud and on groomers. Have them paired with Marker Duke's- great backcountry set-up.

I've been using these for running/mtn biking for about a year now- they do a great job of keeping your feet feeling dry, and they don't itch (I thought they might b/c they are wool). They do get kind of banged-up if you don't wash them inside out, but it's not a big deal.

I've got this in the hooded and unhooded version and I love them both. The unhooded is a little more versatile and gets a lot of use- great layer for skiiing or other snow sports in the winter, or over a t-shirt in fall/spring for trail running, mtn biking, etc...I take mine everywhere I travel and sleep in it 30% of the year. Chest pocket is a great feature for keeping things organized.

Overall, this is a good, lightweight jacket that packs well and is not too expensive. It would not be my first choice in heavy rain as it does soak through after awhile. I've also found that it does not breathe as well as some other shells that I've used. I use it as a packable layer to stuff in my fishing vest or Camelback when on the river or on a ride/hike.

I've used the M.U.L.E. for mountain biking and hiking for 3 years and it has always served me well. Perfect size to hold enough food, gear for a 3-4 hour ride, but not big/bulky. Would not change a thing on it.

Nice, clean design that works well, does not cost too much (would not get the ti version), and is super-light. No complaints.

Nice to have both presta and schrader without having to re-rig. It also seems a little more well-built than some of the other compact pumps out there. It is small, so takes some time to get to pressure, but good overall pump. I'd buy again if I lost it.

I've got these mounted on some 183 Gotamas and love them. They are great at the resort and in the backcountry. I did not notice the weight as much as some other reviewers, but agree that it's less than ideal to need to remove ski to lock (only downside). I didn't have any issues with icing-up when switching to the lock position. Overall, a good, solid binding.

This is the perfect all-around bag. I use it daily for trips to gym, farmers market, picnics, etc. I initially thought that the open design at the top might let in rain/snow, but it's a non-issue as the bag closes at the top once you have it on. Super light and nice design. I'm a huge fan.

These bars taste great and are packed with healthy, natural ingredients. They are about 2X as expensive as some of the other all-natural premium bars out there, but they are also 2X as big. Big/filling enough to serve as lunch when on the go.

I've always had a problem with my goggles fogging up when hiking...I was a little skeptical about this fan system, but it actually works great and is very small so it stays out of the way. It is pretty loud on the high setting to the point where I've had people on the chair ask me what that buzzing noise is. The low setting does the job and is quiet- you just need to remember to turn it off at the end of the day or you will run down the batteries. Overall, great goggle.
