Arc'teryx Alpha SV Bib - Men's    This product is no longer available
 
Love it!   01-28-08   

I don't think it gets any better than this bib. Very well designed. Maybe the elastic cords could be more durable, but even those work perfect. Very easy to get in and out. And it will keep you dry.

Marmot CWM EQ Sleeping Bag: -40 Degree Down    Read other reviews of this product
 
One of the best you can get   01-28-08   

Used it in -20, only had my socks and a light next-to-skin layer on. It was perfect, even a little warm, had to pull down the zipper on the side. Packs well into the sack it comes with it. Waterproofing really works, stayed completely dry on the inside.

Works very well   01-28-08   

Wore it for three days straight on the most recent trip, with a fleece and a gore tex jacket in 0F weather. Did it's job very well.

Arc'teryx Alpha SV Jacket - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
The best   01-28-08   

Just like I wrote to to the SV bib: I don't think it gets any better than this jacket. You can adjust the hood in three different ways so it stays in place in high winds. It is very strong and comfortable. I had no problem with the length, and it was easy to operate th underarm zippers with a backpack on.

Osprey Packs Crescent 110 Pack - 6900 cu in    Read other reviews of this product
 
DURABLE, VERSATILE, HEAVY   01-28-08   

Lots of bells and whistles, but very durable. There are a lot of ways to make it very comfortable. Make sure you adjust it to your frame, or you will feel the pressure points by the evening. I did not fuss around with the oven thing they advertise, just adjusted it to the load. It worked very well. It's is a heavy bag though. If you are a minimalist you would probably pick up something else.

Works   01-28-08   

I'm a 36 waist, and size L was good. Hiked for three days with one pair on. Worked well.

Not warm enough   01-28-08   

Wore them in 9F weather in camp with sock liner and socks. The sole is not insulated enough i think. I would go with something warmer for below zero weather.

Patagonia Micro Puff Pullover - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Good   01-28-08   

Throw it over your base layers when arriving to camp just under the Gore-Tex shell, it will keep you warm. Would love to see one with a hood. It is right for cold weather (0-20), but not for extreme cold (-20 and below), you need more layers for that.

Benchmade 556 Mini-Griptilian Knife    This product is no longer available
 
Good knife   01-28-08   

Very durable, long lasting craftsmanship. It is heavy though. I would not choose it again for a mountaineering trip where every once counts.

Black Diamond Guide Glove - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Very warm   01-28-08   

Very-very warm. Runs a bit bulky, but you can remove the liner and use the outer shell with a tech glove. That's what I did in -15F, less than that, just use it as it comes. Truly waterproof. Bulkiness can cost mobility, i.e. putting on a crampon can be a challenge :)

Patagonia Micro Puff Pant - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Very good   01-29-08   

I gave four stars to the top, just because i wanted to see it with a hood. The bottom is perfect. Easy to get in and out when it counts. Wore it in -10 in camp, and worked well with a skin layer, fleece bottom and Gore-Tex bib on top. Keeps you warm for minutes just sitting before you feel that you need to move to get warmed up.
