Chaos CTR Adrenaline Multi-Tasker Pro Balaclava – Review
I have a beard. Mostly because I think I look stupid without it, but also because it is a natural insulator. If my wife would let me, I would grow it out more until it was a little thicker. As it is now, its not much against cold and wind. There are days when its just not enough and I need something more substantial to keep my face and neck warm.Chaos CTR Adrenaline Multi-Tasker Pro BalaclavaOn days like that you

Black Friday Gear Deals
Ill let you in on a secret. I hate Black Friday. I saw a banner on Facebook the other day that put it best. My disdain for mankind outweighs my love for shopping. With that being said, internet shopping avoids all the crazy people and still allows you to grab some great deals on gear. Below are a few gear sales that caught my attention.Backcountry.com is having a Black Friday & Cyber Monday Sale - Massive Discounts up to 70%

Hydrapak 3L Hydration Bladder – Review
When I was a little I loved to take straws from restaurants and attach them end to end to make one long epic straw. I don’t know what the fascination was, but it seems to be a pretty universal one. I have seen countless children, in countless restaurants making the same types of straws. Then you have crazy straws that loopy loop or form glasses or other crazy shapes. There’s just something about long straws that captivates the little kid

Hillsound Trail Crampon and Trail Crampon Pro – Review
Its getting cold and snow is beginning to cover the trails. Most casual hikers have stored their boots away for warmer seasons. But a few diehards will continue to hike the trails regardless of their condition. If you find yourself in this latter group you know the importance of good traction on icy and snowy trails.v The options are endless. It seems like everyone has some form of light crampon available for winter hikes. Hillsound, however, is a company
Klymit Inertia X Frame Sleeping Pad Review
I’m a skeptic, and I’m a gear head. So when I had the opportunity to test and review the Kymit Inertia X Frame, I jumped at the opportunity. From the first time I saw the X Frame I had a hard time believing it would be comfortable. In my mind, the X Frame was for ultraIight junkies that cared more about saving ounces than being comfortable. While I do like saving ounces, I have never been one to sacrifice comfort.
