Anyone have one of these used, they're looking to sell?
Thanks.

Would you mind sharing your pack list? Are you saying you're really at 10 pounds (18.5-8.5 pack weight) or 18.5 on top of that? When I do my weight I list everything in a spreadsheet, including...
+1. Love mine. Just wished it was a few pounds lighter or it carried itself for those deep trips into the backcountry.
Maybe it's me, but I have the Garmin state on my Oregon and while it looks real nice I've never found the map on the gps to be all that useful or great. I use a map of my area I've printed at home...
+1 on this. Wall tent comfort. Ultra lightweight. I'm a sawtooth guy myself - a little different than the 4 man - but they're all great... And warm.
Elkoholic - you'll be psyched. I looked a lot of different spotters. I had the budget to get into the big named "alpha" glass and as you can see by my post I already have Leica, but the Razor was not...
This off-season I picked up a Vortex Razor spotting scope. I could write pages on why I love this scope but I will save that for another post. It simply is awesome. So good, that I am thinking of...
I have the gale jacket in a large. I'm 6' as well. About 180. I wouldn't say the gale is a slim fit. It has room for layers and is more of an athletic fit - but not baggy. I love it. For the money...
Sorry for the late reply on this - been out of pocket for a while. Condensation is present but I wouldn't call it an "issue" especially in CO. It would definitely be different if I were in WA or OR...
I have several Kifaru tipis. Just ordered another one matter of fact - a 12 man for family use. Prefer the Sawtooth for backcountry use though. Great piece of gear and a great company. Can't say...
I used the SOLE insoles in my Lowa Baffin Pro's last season. Just purchased some Lathrop and Son's insoles and will try those out as well. Liked the SOLE's just needed something that took less volume...
I have an alpenlite and love it. However if I were to do it over again I'd get one of their micro-fiber models. Weight gain is small yet more durable and moisture resistant. I usually find my outer...
Just to add to this the Western Mountaineering are warm. Much warmer than their rating. If I had to do it over again -- I have an alpinlite -- I would have gone with the microshell version. Sort of...
Ryan,
What pants are you wearing?
I just picked up a Gale Jacket L4 and L3 zephyer pants. The Jacket fits a touch big but I believe that's so you can layer plenty underneath. So a little on the big size for a Large but still a...
Western Mountaineering is all you'll ever need. I also checked out the Mont-Bel stuff which can sometimes be had a for good price. Most important, try to test it out. Get in it. I found they are all...
I can't comment on the particular units you're referencing, I hunt a different area in CO but I think you're asking the right question and the answer is up to you. Not about units but about hunt...
If I were you in your budget I'd look at the Monarch X. They can be found for much lower than their retail price. This past fall I compared my new Leica 10x42s ultravids to my buddy's Monarch X's in...
+1 on this.
