Gear review by Scott Ross

Okay folks, we are going to go over the Mini Heat alcohol stove today and give you a little insight on this little powerhouse of a alcohol stove. So first, let’s get some of the basic specs out of the way.

Typically, I review my gear after having used it for a long period of time. In the case of my new rain gear, however, I’ll make an exception. I recently returned from an amazing 12 day backpacking trip through the Sierra Nevada range, and during that trip I wore the ZPacks Waterproof Breathable (WPB) Cuben jacket far more than I’d expected it to be necessary. Since the experience is fresh in my mind, I thought I’d pump out a quick ‘short-term’ review.

Hi everyone! Today I’m going to talk about a new (new to me) hydration system called the Jetflow and a chance to enter their giveaway!

A jacket so light, even a NAME would weigh too much. The Montbell ExLight is one of the lightest down jackets available, and after three solid years of 3-season backpacking and frequent city use, mine has repeatedly proven to be comfortable, compressible, warm and light..

WHAT IS A LAND SHARK? An Instant survival shelter and a good tool for a bad day. Land Shark is designed to save your life from hostile elements on land or in water. Its patented design keeps you warm, dry, and visible to search & rescue crews for miles. When traveling into the unknown, always bring your Land Shark.

Hi everyone! Today I’m going to talk a flashlight from Nite-ize. The Inova T1 tactical LED flashlight.

With twelve ounces of top-quality 900 Fill-power Hungarian goose down for warmth and compressibility, 1.1oz/square yard ripstop nylon for low weight, and some of the most affordable prices on the market, the Hammock Gear Burrow is a no-brainer. Other topquilts might run more than $300, and a sleeping bag of similar quality could cost nearly $500

Hey everyone. Today I’m going to talk to you about product from Nite-ize. I had the opportunity to try the reflective tent line kit with figure 9’s. The kit comes with four reflective guy lines and four figure 9’s.

Hey everyone! I’m excited to be writing this article about the Grand Trunk Goods double hammock.

A tiny little light with many uses. The Nite-Ize Microlight swipe to shine.

It isn’t often that you find a piece of gear that just will not die. We’ve all heard the expression: “Lightweight, Cheap, Strong – pick two.” I picked all three (well…maybe not quite CHEAP, but certainly no more expensive than other high-quality carbon fiber poles) with the LighTrek4 (LT4) Adjustable poles from Gossamer Gear (GG).
