On second thought

Hmmmm....this is why gear shopping is so fun. Oh, the reviews you can read! Well, my Mountain Hardware hook up may not be worth it in the end seeing as how all the tent reviews seem to be quite negative. The 2 person tents are all quite small and review as large solo tents. Although I plan on quite alot of solo backpacking this season, I must think of little (soon to be big) Blue and potential backpacking partners in my tent selection. So the Mountain Hardware Helion is out.


Now my first pick is the Big Agnes Copper Spur Ultralight 2 person tent. Great reviews from both REI shoppers and Backpacker Magazine Gear Reviewers. It has a big price tag but with my REI dividend (just received last night!) and their 20% discount it might be do-able. OH I LOVE GEAR!

If you want a shirt to reflect your gear passion (not saying anything else so please take no offense!) I just received one as a gift. I have enjoyed your blog. Not sure how I stumbled on it but thanks! http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Backcountry-Gear-Slut-T-Shirt-Short-Sleeve-Mens/BCC0090M.html
