    MSR Guardian

    Chatted with MSR today and asked about their ability to get away with the freeze proof claim. Here's what I got back for those of you interested like I was. "Thanks for emailing me. It has to do with the orientation of the fibers in the actual filter element. Think of the fibers as a cluster of...

    Headlamp help?

    Black Diamonds new Spot and Storm are the cats arse. I used Petzls in the military for years and have no idea why I didnt switch to BD sooner. $35 gets you a great HL thats waterproof, has low setting for most tasks, and 200/250 lumens for those times when you cant quite remember where your...

    MSR Guardian

    Got hands on with it and it seems like a well thought out product. Not as heavy as I would have thought either, and feels fairly solidly built. I still have reservations about how a polymer pump costs $400 and can withstand all the things it claims it can, but I also realise the advancements...

    1-2 Man Tent

    Anyone know if the LBO can use the Cimarron pole? Also, what is the height of the LBO when pitched? Also, is there a difference in material between the LBO and the Kifaru line of tipi's/tarps?

    Cimarron vs. LBO w/3 piece

    I'm requesting a shot of a guy standing up in/next to the SO LBO. I'm 6'5 so I know I'm SOL for standing straight up, but I have given up on that dream unless I take a huge shelter, which doesn't make too much sense as a primarily solo hiker. Just would be nice to get an idea of size.

    1-2 Man Tent

    Thank you all for the great ideas and answers! I went and checked out the SO LBO and have only made this more difficult for myself. I seriously like the ability to have the mesh nest inside and the dual entry system looks great for those extra buggy times of year. My only concern is either of...

    1-2 Man Tent

    Thanks for the info jm1607! Anyone have experience with the Paratipi? Would it be a better option for solo/potential 2 man use? Looking back on it, I will agree that the Sawtooth does look quite large for a solo shelter. As for the tarps or paratipi, will they be able to withstand high winds...

    1-2 Man Tent

    Hello all, I am looking at picking up a new 1-2 man tent for both solo/group backpacking, and possibly hunting later on (never been but wish to learn). First off, I live in Alberta, and have easy access to the rockies in the Jasper area. The tent would likely see a good amount of use in the...
