    yet another DIY stove

    The other thread inspired me to build my own stove for my LBO but I didn't really want a cylinder or a box stove. I really liked the design of the HPG shepherd stove so I kind of copied that. I have zero experience using these lightweight stoves let alone building one but it seemed easy enough...

    Jetboil Weight Reduction kit

    Thanks for sharing. Sounds like a win win, versatility, efficiency and I'm surprised by the price.

    LBO first impressions and hopefully more soon

    Versatility was the clincher for me on the lbo. I have two bases and the 3pc vestibule. Had the Jack sewn into a base so I can run dual bases with the stove for extra space. Like the OP though, I haven't had mine in the field yet... Which stove are u guys running in the lbo?

    Paradox Evolution pack frames????

    My favorite way to carry my 3L playty was sandwiched between the bag and the talon. Easy to install/remove and secure.

    Paradox Evolution pack frames????

    I haven't used Kifaru, SG, Exo or MR so I can't make a comparison but for me the evo frame has been excellent. It is a very different design; more similar to an external frame pack than the others. I was amazed by how comfortable the evo was with heavy loads. The heaviest load I packed with...

    Backpack Month: Paradox Pack Review by Jared Lampton

    Thanks Nate. Thanks John. You are welcome to borrow mine anytime, just give me a call. Although, I think the new larger harness and a larger belt would fit you better.

    Backpack Month: Paradox Pack Review by Jared Lampton

    I see what you are saying now and how that could potentially be an issue. I really like how the compression strap ends are folded and sewn flat at a 45 degree angle. It seems like a nice balance between not letting the buckle slide off easily but making it easy enough to remove it when you...

    Undecisive! Stone Glacier or Evolution?

    The only time I had a problem with stuff sticking me in the back was when I had the bag loaded with some bricks for testing. It's definitely a consideration when loading the bag but despite not being especially careful loading up backpacking or day gear, it was not an issue for me (minus the bricks)

    Backpack Month: Paradox Pack Review by Jared Lampton

    Is your buckle not on a loop in the webbing? The evo that I have is set up on a loop for the power pull...can't slide off.

    Now that's heavy! Good to know the pack can handle that sort of weight over time. Thanks for sharing that.

    Backpack Month: Paradox Pack Review by Jared Lampton

    Sounds like good insurance for sure. I've only had one issue with a belt buckle on another pack. I was packing a 124lb load of mule deer and day gear and the buckle would pop loose once in a while -2500 vertical in 2.5 miles... that one hurt a little. I have no concerns with the buckle on the...

    Backpack Month: Paradox Pack Review by Jared Lampton

    Thanks Kevin. Looks like some good updates. I knew about some of the new stuff but chose to leave it out of the review to keep it brief. Manosteel, I see what you mean in one of the pictures. It looks like it's a little tight on my shoulders. The pack does ride very tight to your back. I...
