I wonder if your bands were silicone? My bands, like most silicone, are rated for 500*. Silicone does not melt, according to...

The bands add about 1.5 oz to a naked can. If its an issue for you, you can always remove some of the bands. For those of us who are not scared of a measly 1.5 oz, it makes for a very nice insulating...

Thanks, working on it now, will let you know when I can receive.

Thanks, Ill look into pay-pal.

24 oz Heineken pot, features include:
* Top seperated (it has been popped), tab bent up for grabber.
* Silicone wrist bands (total of 7) included for insulation (this feature also addresses the...

Nice work. I feel your pain, that's a lot of seams!
What do you mean by "stealth camping"?

These are great! I have the QD adapter for my MSR filter. Pop off the mouthpiece and attach the QD connected to the output hose on the pump, now your back-filling the bladder from the hose without...

I made my own mesh set of skins from some ultra light, large hole (3/16" dia.) mesh. Super easy to set up/transport. My thoughts are that it can be coiled on the outside of my pack and will dry...

As a business owner myself, I understand that the ball gets dropped sometimes. The true test of good service is not that the ball never drops, Its how that dropped ball is handled. I really looking...

Thanks to the great service/support at HH. I purchased an UL Backpacker which I found to be too small, they cheerfully exchanged it for an Explorer UL. I ordered an XL bubble pad to be shipped back...

Nice, I made some snake skins from some mesh I got from the local Army Surplus. I use them on my tarp so if the tarp is wet, the whole thing attaches to the outside of my pack and drains/dries while...

Here are some pics of my equipment. The Singer is a 503A "slant-o-matic", bought off CL with cabinet, ALL accessories, and a recent tune up, (did I mention original owner) for $75 delivered! The...

I spent the night alone in the bed of my pickup way up in the hills. For some reason the wild cats were really active that night. Blood curdling screams from cats all night is a bit erie. But, in a...

My mom coached me building my first backpack (at age 14) with a home sewing machine. The Machine was clearly inadequate for the job and made it very frustrating. In spite of the frustration I built 2...

When I met my wife, she was already an accomplished backpacker. She explained to me she was scared to death of the dark, so in order to get over it, she started backpacking solo. She eventually wiser...

There were hammocks in that picture???

The math is right, I bet that will net you a UQ thats less than 16oz.

@ Convert2010,
I think this would be 1 oz in weight. So 1 oz (in weight) of "900fp" will fill 900 ci of volume. Thus the higher the number, the smaller/finer the individual down feathers are....

So is this rating of "fp" (fill ???), is it something that should be found on the label on a quilt or sleeping bag? I recently got a good deal on a 0* rated Eddie Bauer sleeping bag, in hopes to make...

Hi all,
Just returned from a 3 day, 2 night backpacking trip. My first in 11 years! I had to evaluate what was keeping me from backpacking this last decade. I decided I was too old and worn out to...
