I'll have to check that out after work. I too just bought one from REI last week but $8.99, that is an insane deal. Do they have them for small dogs (15-20 .lbs)?

My wife and I decided to make our first backpacking trip this season be up to Paul Lake above Paradise Park in the Uintas. Both of us are pretty out of shape (at least not as in...

Awesome pics! That place looks very different from what I remembered. I've been there 4 times so far but I've not been down there for about 12 years.

Just FYI did you know there are some...

So the Garmin 60sc came in the mail yesterday and after playing around with it a bit I've decided this is a pretty awesome upgrade from my 60CSX. It's got good amount of internal memory plus I can...

I personally didn't mind paying over price for their stuff because I had an insurance policy that if it ever fails I could take it back and get a new one. That is why I always shopped there. At this...

I just got this Email-

A few months ago someone broke into my house a ransacked my office. The day before I was playing with my 60csx in there and that got snatched too. I've been looking for a good deal on a replacement...

Good to know, thanks! I'll stick with my 60CSX and wait for Garmin to pull their heads out and make something that is extraordinary and actually worth the money.

So I currently have a Garmin 60CSX but I was considering upgrading to the 62ST. I've read mixed reviews on REI.com but I still am not 100% convinced. I was wondering if anyone on the board has had...

I found this website to be helpful.

I was up in the Grandaddy lakes area over the 4th and there were a ton of mosquitos, it snowed, and got below freezing both nights. Other then that it was a great trip. I also went up to Paul Lake...

I wonder if it would be pleasant (but cold) right as the ice is done melting on the lakes? I would imagine the fishing would be good and mosquitos few. Do you guys know of any good spots that would...

Man I wish the melt would just hurry the F up! I'm a total noob at this whole backpacking thing but my wife and I have been gathering gear for the past several months and are ready to start heading...

Thats one good reason to pick up a 44 Mag. Bears scare the crap out of me!

Awesome shot though.

There was snow for sure and the lake was frozen over but thats what I was told by other hikers. I got about two thirds the way up and had to come back down because my new $200 Lowa boots tore the...

Well I guess I'll give it a shot tomorrow. I'll let you know how it looks.

I'm planning a hike to lake blanch this weekend and was wondering if you all from the Salt Lake Valley have made it up there yet. The Elevation is about 8800 but it's on the north slope so I'm a...

I was hooking anything from 5" to 14" Most where around 11".

I went up to silver lake flat this past weekend and fishing was amazing. My brother and I fished the stream above the Lake and caught between the two of us over 100 Brookies and Bows in the course of...

I just ended up buying a new one at REI. They had a sale on the miniworks so I picked it up last weekend. I did a little backpacking up above silver lake flat and the new filter worked great.

Great links!

I spent about 2 hours playing with my new map last night but I have another questions, does the Garmin 24K Topo map have better resolution and show trail?


BB

I bought my first GPS (Garmin 60Csx) last Friday at REI's sale. I took it out hiking this weekend and really liked it. Since I've now got a GPS I've been looking at the Garmin 24K Topo maps and had a...

Well thats good news. I just read somewhere that you can boil the filters, should I do that too just in case there might be little microbes living it the filter still?


BB

My brother game me his old MSR Marathon 205 Ceramic Water Filter. It's old (probably like 8 years) and I can't find a replacement cartridge for it. I cleaned it up, rinsed it all down, and ran a...

Cool, thank you!
