    Seek Outside 8 man Tipi or BCS 2?

    my guess would be the price point drives many people away from it, therefore little experience out there with it. now if you and a buddy each had a bcs, the price point isnt as steep.

    Shelter System for the Frank Church Wilderness

    for me, my research landed me on the sl-5 from golite a few years back. it was a nice shelter. space to weight was great. did well in poor weather. 2 people and gear no problem, but light enough that you could still take it solo. after running it, there were a few small, nagging things about it...

    sitka flash gaiters

    i dont think those would cut it for my uses. part of it is keeping sheet out of my boots, but also need them to seal up well for creek crossings and wet brush

    Kahtoola micro spikes?

    yes i use them. they work well for what they are. they stay on and give you much safer traction. sometimes i even use them in the steep heather if i have them along. i have heard of the rubber failing, but mine have been ok.

    Do you guys think that leg gaiters are a must ?

    i wear them all the time. if i only wear them when its wet, its always too late. i do switch between short and tall gaiters for early/late hunts or hunts i know will be wet.
