Buyers Guide & Gear Reviews

I have used many different types of backpacks on short and long hiking trips and during trianing in the military. From my experience there is nothing worse then a pack that doesn't fit right or doesn't have the features you need. A good backpack costs a few dollars and most of us don't have an unlimited budget.

Choosing the right winter sleeping bag in terms of comfort and warmth is the most important thing you can do. Even more important then a winter tent. A tent will keep the rain and snow off you.
