Everyone loves hash browns and I was intent on getting some for my slower, more leisurely hikes that I go on when I ran across Golden Grill Russet Hash Browns on Amazon. I had never heard of this brand but the 400+ reviews just don’t lie – I looked some of the reviews over and made the […]
OUTDOOR RESEARCH FROSTLINE HAT – HIGH TECH TRAPPER HAT
The second I picked up the Outdoor Research Frostline Hat I knew I wanted it. This is an awesome hat that combines some incredible features into an awesome hat that I think stands by itself. It’s light, waterproof, full covered and packable all in one package. They took the old trapper style hat and created […]
Granite Gear Leopard V.C 46 Backpack
Shop Solar Inflatable Lights At LuminAid.com I have a few friends with Granite Gear backpacks and I know they are super quality lightweight no-bull gear so I’ve always wanted to obtain one and I finally got the chance when I found some at Sierra Trading Post. I waited until I got the super […]
Big South Fork – Angel Falls Overnight 12/12/15 Thru 12/13/15
This Angel Falls hike is one of my favorite local hikes because it’s within 4 hours of drive time which allows me to do overnight hikes and not feel too bedraggled from the drive. But that’s not the only reason why it’s one of my favorites because there are several reasons […]
EMBERLIT ULTRA-LITE TITANIUM WOOD STOVE
Well did I purchase another piece of gear that I really didn’t need? I won’t know until I’ve had a chance to test it and then see if I reach for it when I go hiking. Having just received and assembled it, I can’t wait to take it out on the next hike and see how […]
Brooks-Range Mountaineering Ultralite Guide+ Tarp
Previous to buying my Brooks-Range Mountaineering Ultralite Guide+ Tarp I hadn’t owned any Silnylon tarps except for my Sea to Summit Ultra-Sil Nano Tarp Poncho. I really like my tarp poncho but it’s a hair too small for me to consider a seriously protective shelter because I just couldn’t make many configurations except maybe […]
Big South Fork Trips
Big South Fork is such a magnificent place that I keep going back to explore different sections of it. And every time I check out a new section someone tells me of a section that I’ve never seen before and now end up wanting to see since they told me about it. I usually spend […]
UCO CLARUS & ARKA CHARGER + LANTERN + FLASHLIGHT
Several of UCO LED Lanterns from the UCO family. I’ve owned a UCO Clarus 150 Lumen LED Mini Lantern for quite a while now and it has served me well so when I saw the new UCO Arka XP-E CREE 180-Lumen LED Lantern I was ecstatic but didn’t buy it because it was a little pricey for a luxury […]
DRYMAX TRAIL RUN 1/4 CREW SOCKS
With a One Hundred Mile John Muir Trail Hike looming on horizon and at the urging of a friend I finally purchased a pair of Drymax Trail Run 1/4 Crew Socks back in the early months of spring 2015. This turned out to be one of the best purchases I’ve ever made because they all […]

So, I’m always trying to seek out areas that I’ve never visited before for quick overnight backpack trips. Hopefully I’ll be able to explore it all by the time I’m done. The blue […]
