La Sportiva Trango Extreme Evo Light GTX - Men's

December 4, 2011

How warm are these for Winter trips, such as Rainier? I live in Utah along the Wasatch mountains and play in the snow. How do they compare to the Nepal EVO GTX in terms of warmth? I am not a hardcore mountaineer, so the price on these are a little more appealing then the Nepal's.

La Sportiva Trango S EVO GTX Mountaineering Boot - Men's

December 4, 2011

Winter Warm?

Yes, I know there is no insulation in these boots. I am beginning to build my gear set, and really dont think I need/want the Nepal EVO GTX boot at 500 bucks!

I live in Utah, along the Wasatch mountains and plan on doing winter trips, as well as spring, summer, and fall.

Now, to my question: If I wear to wear a good expedition type wool sock, at least, as well as another if needed, would these boots do well?

Thanks.

The North Face Apex Mckinley Softshell Jacket - Men's

December 1, 2011

From what I have researched, the weight is practically the same. As for the fabric, what makes the Apex climate block a better fabric, and is it really worth the extra cost?

Do these pants have a "snow skirt" at the bottom of the leg that act like a built-in gaiter? I have a pair of old mission 6 pants that I am looking to replace. Please see attached photo.

Winter over night??

Has anyone used this pack for over night winter trips? I have the Marmot Lithium sleeping bag, and other backpacking gear. (its in the lightweight class)

How do you think this pack will do for an over nighter? Should I consider getting the Kestrel 48 instead?

For those who have experience with with the Eddie Bauer First Ascent vs the Zeus, what would you about each? The FA (first Ascent) leaks down every time I wear it, VERY annoying.

Great lamp

Black Diamond Storm Headlamp

Black Diamond Storm Headlamp

Rating for this product: 4 November 23, 2011

This is my first headlamp and I have to say it is great. The only reason I gave it four stars is because when I turn it off, it resets to the spotlight mode rather then whatever mode was last used. Not really a big deal, but its just kind of annoying to cycle through the modes. Uses 4 AAA batteries and light outputs lasts a very long time. I am very happy with this lamp and will buy it again with out hesitation.

Osprey Packs Kestrel 48 Backpack - 2800-2900cu in

November 18, 2011

Mostly snowshoeing and general single overnight/day long trips with this pack. I am currently gear up and am more oriented to ultralight/lightweight gear set.

Also. I just noticed REI is offering a sale on the Osprey Talon 44 which is another pack I have been looking at. Any reason to go with that one vs the Kestrel? Thanks again for the help.
