    Made in USA. Video.

    Here is a little video that is largely self-explanatory.
    Hope you enjoy it.

    Nice! And thanks for supporting our economy I've been eyeballing those Ohm packs all day. This didn't help Nice tarp too, like that Edge!

    You are welcome. I am very happy with trading paper for gear.

    And get the Ohm. You can’t go wrong. I haven’t been able to find a pack with a frame that is better when you look at weight/volume.

    You will save money by getting the right gear first time around. I know. Have bought a lot of good stuff that were not the best.

    If you're saying ULA packs are the right gear I agree. A friend came over last week for me to tuckerize her pack. I weighed it -37 pounds with food 4 days/1 qt water leaving Springer March 5- and told her she needed to drop at least 12 pounds. She asked what I would carry so I loaded a pack with everything I'd carry if I was heading north from Springer on March 5.....an hour later she ordered a ULA Circuit, a WB 1.0 Dbl Blackbird, a Hammockgear 3s Pheonix, a McCat Deluxe........
    When she put on my ULA she looked at the Deuter and cringed.
    When she layed in the Blackbird she asked why did I buy a tent.
    When she saw the Phoenix she marveled.
    She didn't order a Mamba but I could tell its only a matter of time.

    Aha, so you really exist !
    I never really believed that, but now i am convinced !
    Just kidding

    Exist?

    And we will meet one day eventually. Getting my winter gear in working order.

    Yes that is the Speer PolarPod.
    http://stores.tttrailgear.com/-strse...Pod/Detail.bok

    And I do have some issues with the PolarPod. There is no insulation along the Velcro closure and no insulation at the ends. Will return to that in an other video.

    Cheers.
