Big Agnes Clearview Air Pad    This product is no longer available
 
For a great nights sleep   07-16-08   

I just had this pad up in the adirondacks and I've got nothing but good things to say about it. It packs down smaller than a nalgene bottle and weighs less than most 3/4 length pads. My tent mate even commented on how comfortable it looked and said I didn't move once during the night so I must have been comfortable. Our campsite was very rooty and I didn't feel a thing. I'm 5'2, 130lbs and the petite worked great for me. I can't comment on it's long term durability yet so far so good.

MSR Hubba HP Tent 1-Person 3-Season    This product is no longer available
 
Search no more!   08-11-08   

My search for the perfect tent is over!!! I've been searching for the perfect tent for some time now and have bought, tested and returned many a tent - but no more. This tent is really light, has enough room for me and my gear, nice vestibule size and most important no condensation problems. With 6 stakes my tent is secure and while there are extra guy-out points I’ve found no need to use them. Everyone at camp kept checking out my tent and was impressed by its roominess. Setup is quick and easy. I couldn’t have made a better purchase. Well worth the money!

Don't buy!   07-21-08   

1st I'd like to say thank you to backcountry for taking this watch back no questions asked - this is why I loyally shop with backcountry! I wore this watch in the shower only to find it all steamed up with water. What would happen if I got caught out in a rainstorm while on a run? Or slipped during a water crossing. It's unfortunate because i really liked the fit and feel of this watch.

Outdoor Research Pack Hoody    This product is no longer available
 
worked great   07-16-08   

In warm/hot weather this worked great. I liked that the hood kept the rain from going down my back and potentially getting into my backpack through the back panel. A rain jacket would have made me too warm. And in the stretches of dryness all I had to do was push back the hood – no taking off the pack to stash my jacket or to put it back on.

a must have   07-16-08   

I won't hit the trails without it. Ultra soft, amazing absorbency and it packs ultra small. I keep one in my gym bag and in my car.

Icebreaker Nature Ultralite Hipster Underwear - Women's    Read other reviews of this product
 
bought 2 more pairs   06-13-08   

I love these better than the patagonia calpaline. If your going out on the trail or for a run and need performance underwear that won't make you offensive to be around these are the way to go. They dry super quick and rinse out with no problem. They come a little big though - luckily I took note of a previous review and went one side down. I normally wear a size 6/medium but decided to order the small - they fit perfectly. The only way they could be better is if they were seamless. Pricey but worth it - not to mention they are cute.
