hit the search button at the top right and click the "everywhere" button and change it to "this thread" and then type headlamp and it should show you every post that mentions a headlamp

Learn to sew and start making your own modifications and gear…careful though, you may end up with a side gig.

Also, you’ll realize how much everything is marked up within the industry and it’ll make you that much more of a penny pincher.

Oh man. My mother-in-law has pretty nice sewing equipment and did some work for me a while back. Really opened my imagination to what kind of customization I can dream up!

Decathlon has some great (and dirt cheap) backpacking gear. Online only in the US.

I’ve been using their lightweight butane cook set for years. Just as light as a big brand, but cost about $20
Their puffy constantly gets mentioned as being better or same as all the big companies for a fraction of the price

Just used this saw to skull cap some caribou as well as cut off the ribs, and cut firewood for 10 days. Saw worked well and is extremely lightweight.
