A big thanks again to Dutch. Earlier this year I started using his cuben fiber pack cover which totally rocks. Since then I've also re-made my continuous ridge-line using one of his Flyz and Dutch hooks. When I got the dutch hooks I realized that they were also the solution to a problem with my hiking pole tarp pole mod - now I have a couple more of his hooks for connecting my poles to the tarp ends - very sweet and elegant. Lately I've found myself looking for an excuse to get a couple of his biners but I haven't come up with one - yet.

I can't wait to see what cool hardware he comes up with next.
