    I certainly didn't think it was cold enough in the Northern Hemisphere to be needings a polar pod and and exped dreamwalker for insulation. However I looked up the weather forecast for Copenhagen and saw that the temps are hovering around 18C for the day time high and 15C for the night time low. That isn't much variation between the two.

    Looks like you've got yourself a great system worked out. Looking forward to field reports on your system when full on winter arrives in your area.

    Cheers

    i noticed that as well...i'm impressed with 14lbs! you had a lot of stuff in that pack. i love the way people from the other side of the pond say al-u-min-nee-um.

    you had a lot of gear from the US - do you get hammered on duties for that?

    where is that parka from? do you have a name or web site link?

    Those are the coolest hiking pants I've see in a while!
    I noticed you said 'all secure', is that Shug's influence spreading across the world or what!
    Thanks again for using VIMEO!
