Ultralight•Kelty Riot 15 & 22 Backpacks

I've used Kelty before and they're pretty great. Their bags are pretty good and a well recognized backpack brand I wouldn't worry about it. I can't vouch for this one but I've used a Redwing 40 and it's held up really well for travel. Definitely looking at this to compliment my bag but I'm not sure if it'll fold up to carry as a secondary in my main bag.

Cannae Transport Duffel Bag

Ultralight•Sierra Designs DriDown Pillow

I find it very peculiar that MD continues to ignore so many polls where Zpacks equipment is at the top. Sleeping bags, rain jackets, shelters, backpacks...on and on. Either MD is choosing to ignore an obviously popular ultralight brand, or Zpacks aren't playing ball with discounting their product...

Outdoors•Share Your Camping Recipes

Backpacking food should be much lighter and cook faster than car camping food. There are some delicious freeze-dried meal options, Packet Gourmet being a little more pricey than the other brands but very tasty. For car camping keep it simple and start testing at home until you feel more comfortable and get inspired. It took me a few years before I started cooking on the fire pit, including using the Dutch oven to bake bread. Having a pie iron...

Any interest in the Nemo Stargazer Luxury chair?

My family pretty much always brings at least 1 hammock when camping or backpacking, and I came across this new hammockish camp chair: https://www.nemoequipment.com/product/stargaze-luxury/ Its definitely more of a car camping item than a back...

Outdoors•Interest Check: Outdoors & Ultralight Jackets

Below is my detailed review of the Marmot Zeus. It was my first down jacket that I've owned, but since then I've gotten a LLBean down jacket for town use. I used a Marmot zeus on a 7.5 month trip on the appalachian trail. This jacket is great- 700fill i believe, and pretty lightweight thanks to the preferred down insulation. Stuffs into its own left hand pocket- although I rarely used...

Outdoors•Advanced Elements Abyss All-Weather Duffel Bag

I'm ok with this purchase, but don't think it is a great deal. It isn't as sturdy as some bags I have gotten and the backpack straps are no good, they don't stay put, they slide out easy and are impossible to get a good set up because they don't bite. I'm used to heavy duty bags like billabong, this bag is one tenth of a billabong bag. i never thought a Billabong bag would rate higher than this brand.

Everyday Carry•Alpine Division Eliot Ripstop Backpack

I have the Alpine Division Mckenzie Bag: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/the-alpine-division-mckenzie-ripstop-backpack I really like it. It's strong, stylish, and holds quite a lot. It's been through some rain, and did get a little wet—not wet enough to damage anything inside, but wet enough that I wouldn't recommend it for any long trek in the rain. But a walk to work or an excursion in a light...
