The North Face Snowshoe Sleeping Bag: 0 Degree Polarguard - Women's    This product is no longer available
 
like this bag   08-18-04   

I really like this bag. Been using it for a year now. I've taken trips to high altitude places and also a trip in a warmer environment...this bag is super comfortable, warm and easy to pack. I wish it could pack down a bit smaller, but for the warmth and durability, i love it. I've been in rain and snow with this and been fine. I can cozy up in it, cinch down the top and have a great night's sleep. Love this bag!

Arc'teryx Sigma AR Jacket - Women's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Awesome   07-11-05   

I love this jacket. As far as a softshell goes, this is one of the best. Perfect for in and outbounds skiing or hiking as well. I get super cold in the winter when I ski, so this is the perfect midlayer for me to keep warm. It also serves a great purpose for wearing with just a lightweight layer for warmer conditions. The pit zips are also key...open 'em when it gets warm, then close 'em up on the way down when it's cold. Also looks really nice for going out on the town!

CW-X Insulator Expert Tight - Women's    Read other reviews of this product
 
CW-X Tights Rule!   11-18-05   

A good friend of mine recommended these to me after I had surgery on my knee. These have to be some of the best insulator tights I have. This was a great investment for me and my knee. I wear them skiing pretty much every day, the construction and design of the knees in this tight are key. My knee feels really stable. Just that extra stability keep me confident out there skiing—I used to wear just a long underwear layer. These are also great for working out in the cold and a perfect layer underneath ski pants. Very much worth the money!!

Black Diamond Powerstretch Glove    This product is no longer available
 
Love These Gloves!   08-17-04   

Best glove I've had in a while. The windstopper combined with the snug, easy fit is awesome. I wanted something that could be worn in snow, rain, cold and ice...and these do the job. Works great for a liner or on it's own, so i stay warm and wet free! I highly recommend these to anyone looking for an all around glove for all around activities.

Smith Southbound Sunglasses - Polarized    Read other reviews of this product
 
Love 'em   06-28-05   

I've had these glasses for about 4 years now. I have a fairly small face, so these are perfect for me. I really like the glass lenses and the sleek style of the frames. I always wear toasters for skiing, biking, hiking and all that but I was looking for something a little fancier for going out and just everyday stuff where I wasn't exercising. The polarized helps a ton for being on the water or bright sunny days.

CamelBak Hydrobak Hydration Pack    Read other reviews of this product
 
w00t!   07-12-05   

This Camelbak is great! It is perfect for day hikes and especially skiing. It fits sleekly to the back for wearing under your coat skiing inbounds or out of bounds. 50 ounces is great for a day of skiing or a hike. There is a small pocket for a cell phone, energy bar, credit card or cash and keys. This is also great for biking and running.

Awesome   06-28-05   

I love this hydration pack. Been using Camelbaks for years now. I just got this one and use it for shorter hikes and skiing. It's perfect for storing keys, a phone and little energy bar and it carries just the right amount of water. I use it most for skiing, but have used it on shorter bike rides and hikes...this pack RULES!

Adventure Medical Day Tripper First Aid Kit    This product is no longer available
 
good stuff   07-11-05   

I was looking for a simple first aid kit for a quick weekend trip. Got this and am really happy with it. Has all the things I would need in case of an emergency, plus it has enough in case one or more of us got injured. This can be used for backpacking and most definitely car camping-would be perfect to keep in the car as well. Simple and easy to use.

Bridgedale Active Sock - Women's    This product is no longer available
 
socks!!   07-13-05   

I love this sock! Whether you're running, hiking or just going out on the town, or even to work, these are great. I find them to be one of the most comfortable socks out there. Bridgedale makes a solid sock. I usually always wear ankle socks and these are perfect for my needs. They never bunch up at the toe and they are super lightweight. Good stuff!

Rossignol Bandit B3 Alpine Ski - Alpine Ski    Read other reviews of this product
 
Super Smoooooooth!   07-08-05   

Got these skis after skiing the Volkl Explosives for 2 years. My knee just couldn't handle the stiffness of those so I went to these. These are a bit too soft for my taste, but honestly, they rule. I love, love them in the pow and on the groomers. Charging through crud they are pretty good, but like I say, just a bit too soft for me. The width is perfect in the tip, waist and tail. I even slid the fun box in the park over and over on these! Easy to turn in high speeds and maching down the hill.

Montrail Hardrock Trail Running Shoe - Womens    Read other reviews of this product
 
my new trail runners!   07-11-05   

Just got these a couple weeks ago and love them. Went for a nice long hike and they were perfect. It was all trail, some single track smooth dirt then some scrambling up some pretty steep terrain and they ruled it! I love that these are pretty stiff for how comfy they are. I feel really solid and stable in these shoes. The mesh keeps them a cool. I had to cross the river in 'em and it really didn't take long for them to dry out. I'll for sure buy these when the new ones wear out!
