Rating for this product: 5 June 26, 2012

Tough, lite material with good fit. Plenty of pockets and nice length. Not really any stretch though. Nice layer of soft material around inner waist with very thin stretch drawstring that you cannot feel and vanishes. I am 5'4" 140 lbs. and got the size 8. It is fitted and flattering. I will use these more for travel and short hikes instead of backpacking.

I really like this bar!! It has thin coating of dark chocotate that hits just perfect on every bite. It does taste more like a candy bar, but not sickening sweet. I usually do not like any "energy bar" but keep trying them. Really glad I tried this one.

Top Lightweight Pack!!!

Definitely hits the mark for quality, light weight 50 liter pack. I had to return because fit all wrong for me. I need women's specific and torso adjustable to dial in the fit. No matter how many unisex packs I try it just doesn't work. But how I wish it did. This would be a keeper. Only one negative for me was no hydration pocket inside pack which is pretty standard.

Beautiful shorts - a bit big

Mountain Hardwear Overlook Short - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 3, 2012

Just recieved these in black. As others have stated they are pretty generous. I will send back for one size smaller than I normally take. I hope they still won't be too big. The black online looks like a medium charcoal and it's not!! It's a true deep, dark black and pretty but I want something lighter so I'm going to try the titanium. Fabric is tough and not super thin. Length perfect - not too short but not too long. They're really nice I hope the next pair work for me.

Great shirt!!

Icebreaker BodyFit 200 Oasis Crew - Long-Sleeve - Women's

Icebreaker BodyFit 200 Oasis Crew - Long-Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 June 17, 2011

Just got the shirt in and it's nice!! Athletic fit, good for movement, and flattering. I ordered a large so I have a little slack for undershirt. Sleeves are a little long but no problem. Neck is high for cold not scooped down. I'm looking forward to using in fall and winter hiking and cross country skiing. I already have a wool t-shirt (of another brand) so I'm expecting the same great properties. Fantastic for backpacking. These garment are how you transition to light and ultra light!! The non-stink factor is true also. I rarely use any synthetic short sleeved shirts in warm weather now. At this sale price don't wait - just order. Lisa from Maryland

Vasque Mantra GTX Hiking Shoe - Men's

May 5, 2009

I've talked to some thru hikers and am researching and buying gear for my daughter to start thru hiking AT soon. They all mostly wear sturdy trail runners that have a shank for underfoot protection and lots of mesh for breathability and fast drying. For your gear set think: lighter, thinner, smaller with everything! She has pack weight down to 25 - 30 lbs. No need for a bag under 10 to 15 degrees as the temps. don't go lower than that. Think of layering all clothes together for climate changes. Get titanium pot and homemade pop can alcohol stove. Look up ultra light camp sites for lots of info. and keep paring down. Most hikers only carry one set of clothes, warmer layers, raingear, and spare socks & undergarments. Everyone says gortex shoes too hot and don't dry fast enough. Happy trails - keep researching!

Super trail shoes!

Oboz Sidewinder Hiking Shoe - Women's

Oboz Sidewinder Hiking Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 27, 2009

Comfortable right out of the box! I have wider feet and the fit was good. I replaced the insole with Superfeet to prep for backpacking and give more support. Just the right amount of support, flex,& sturdy sole in lighter shoe. Have done 3 weeks of trail walking and backpacked one weekend with no problems. After spraying two times cannot get them waterproofed - too much mesh. But cooler for feet and shoud dry quickly. Called manufacturer and it does have built in shank for underfoot protection. A great bargain for this sale price. Lisa in Maryland

Great socks!

Lorpen Merino Light Hiker Crew Sock

Lorpen Merino Light Hiker Crew Sock

Rating for this product: 5 April 27, 2009

Used these socks on packpacking trip this weekend and they were great. Soft and just the right amount of thickness and cushion for my shoe. I would consider this a light/medium sock. In 90 degree heat they dried easily on lunch break. NO BLISTERS even on rocky, steeper trail that I was not really ready for. I did not use a liner sock because there was not enough spare room in my shoe. I purchased the cream so ticks could be spotted easily. Lisa in Maryland

Gorgeous trail runners

Inov  8 Roclite 282 Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Inov 8 Roclite 282 Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 21, 2009

These shoes look like they live up to all the hype of British company Inov8. Toe cap has very sturdy material and sole looks good too. Super light weight but has underfoot plate protection. I only wish the pair I ordered would have fit. They were not a keeper for me, had to return. I have a wide foot. But if you have a normal width you'll be set. I recommend giving them a try! I've read many positive reviews on performance. Really good looking shoe too. Can only give 4 out of 5 stars since I did not use product.

MontBell U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #3 Sleeping Bag: 30 Degree Down

Rating for this product: 5 December 16, 2008

Purchased this bag for my daughter (to upgrade gear for AT hike) and she raves about the stretchy comfort! A better nights sleep. Very light weight, high quality. Packs down smaller than any full size bag I've ever seen. True to temp. rating is rare also. She is a cold sleeper so will use bag in spring, fall, and summer also. Definitely one of the premium bag manufacturers out there. When you compare: weight, temp. ratings, compressed size and going ultralight this is one of the standouts! Worth the investment! Protect with silk or other liner when using, store always in loft bag. I would not use in unprotected ground area with out good tarp or tent as material looks as if it would snag easily.
