    Death Hollow Escalante Area

    I'm trying to see if I can put together a 3 day (2 night) backpacking trip in early May. I'm really drawn to Nick's trip reports from this area and would really like to try it out. It seems perfect - dog friendly, plenty of water and scenery and seemingly not too busy. and most importantly -...

    Backpacking and Camera Tripod

    blueeyes - in retrospect yes I would (though haven't done any rs into what I'd get instead). at the time probably not. I felt like it was a good purchase, good weight and features for the price, had it recommended to me by a few peeps.

    North Wash Area - March 8-11

    So, once upon a time, I really wanted to learn canyoneering, and learn it right. But alas, I knew no one personally at the time who was an experienced canyoneer. So, I turned to the one resource I had: school. I signed up for Canyoneering I (and two others) with the U. I was beyond excited. 2...

    Sleeping bag help

    I'm sure most already know this - but throwing it out there anyways. Women sleep colder than men, so a women's 0 degree bag is warmer than a men's 0 degree bag. just something to keep in mind. And I definitely like marmot's bags, favorite brand. for myself, I have a marmot never winter 30...

    Gear Question: Vibram Five Fingers

    which five fingers exactly? their treks or sypridon's would be killer for hiking. I've got a pair of treks, I've backpacked, hiked, trail ran in them. uintas, wasatch, the swell, zion, etc. when you put in a lot of mileage on them, they dont' last as long as other shoes which is my biggest...
