    Heavy wool.

    Best heavy wool garments by far are from the German company Mufflon they do a whole range in boiled felted 450g merino and boiled felted 780g wool (not merino). I have owned a few pieces and can attest to the superb quality and durability. I live out of my Luke vest. W100 unisex - men -...

    Katadyn befree small gravity filter

    You can make a gravity filter out of the katadyn befree filter unit without using hydrapak seeker bladders by using a 25mm (internal diameter) * 5mm thick o-ring. I dont expect anyone will use it in this way (i.e as a small gravity filter to sit ontop of a bottle) BUT the same method could...

    Kifaru Doobie instead of a sleeping bag?

    Problem with a doobie or any flat quilt is the lack of a footbox and the footbox makes all the difference in keeping the heat in. Ive had a couple of K woobies and a doobie but now use a Group 1 equipment G1 Liner. Could not be happier (fabric is nicer, softer and no balloon effect, its also...

    Kifaru Center Zip

    This would be the (latest!) ideal pack for me at least. Tahr/Markhor/Argali type bag with a centre zip, vertical daisys to guide the straps either side of the zip like on the 14r, centre buckle Compression clipped into frame AND rolltop closure in addition to the snow collar lid thing. the...

    Kifaru Highcamp 7000 Modifications done. (continuation of previous thread)

    Im having a similar mod (but not by NT as Im not in the USA) done to an Argali bag that will go on my 22" UL frame. Argali to be shortened by 3.5" (just requires some deconstruction at the top and repositioning the hypalon frame sleeve 3.5" lower), center zip added. But im curious to know why...

    Kifaru with HPG harness

    Got my harness lower with the kclip guide by threading the hpg harness, then going through the kclip, then going back through the harness triglide to lock it in place. Just used a piece of webbing for the strap so adjustment as stock.

    Kifaru with HPG harness

    This is how I did mine. I do not like the kifaru shoulder straps at all as they sit very awkwardly on me (I have 'slopey' shoulders). As a poster said, you will need some foam (I used rolled up 4mm evazote that I had lying around). You can also clip a kclip into the frame webbing loop (at the...

    Lightweight Trail Shoes vs. Frankenstein Boots

    It all depends if you are willing to condition your feet. I will never go back to boots again as im a US14-15 and any boot is just too damn heavy when you feet are that big. I actually got my big ass boot stuck between some rocks once when I sat on a boulder near a stream, took me a couple of...
