Anyone here use igloos or snowcaves for camping in winter? Seems a lot of work, but if you "base" out of a certian location more than a few times a season its probably worth the time it takes to build. I found this tool HERE and thought it VERY interesting. Seems like you could carry WAY less...

I kinda noticed that there is NO FALL color in it...Was that the answer? ;) Great pics. I SOOOOO have to move...sooooon M

ive ALWAYS had issues with my bladders in winter. I have used various methods and various bladder makers...none have gotten it down. My "homemade" idea (which is made but yet to be tested), takes the heating elemenst out of those silly socks and runs the wires down the lenght od the tube inside...

I use it and for me it WORKS....lightweight. I ALWAYS keep 2 drenched in vasilene in a ziplock in my pack. M

I am the same...I prefer my "space" so to speak. I also have trouble with snorers...I can't block them out..I mainly sit in shelters until its time to sleep, chat with others, etc.. Its tent or bivy for me :D M

I read a LOT of these "soda" can fuel stoves ROCK...I am thinking about making on soon, but all the reports i've read say ONLY good things about them and that they are even BETTER than a white gas stove in winter and at altitude..I don't know for sure..but only time will tell.. I do know that...

Ive used both revivex and nik wax. Have had pretty good luck with both, but agree with the other post that Revivex seemed to work better...I actually just did a pair of trail runners with revivex and it seemd to make them at least slightly more water resistant to avoid INSTANT soaking.. M

Happens EVERY MORNING when I go out in my backyard to let the dogs out....i've sooo gotten used to it. M

I think he's just a shadow... :) M

How was that skiing? I've often thought about it as well...Riding its fun.. Oh yeah if you didn't guess, im in jersey too... :) Close proximity apparently. M

Funny you should mention this...I also just purchased the "day hiker" spencos, and put them into my trail runners. They feel nice so far, haven't done any kind of sunstantial hiking with them yet, but they feel really nice in the arch, and seem stiff enough to help with roll overs... Hopefully...

Supporting the local business is the main point you bring up, and I think thats great...and all in all, it hardly cost you anything really... M

I've heard the cows lying down means rain too...don't know how accurate it is, but i HAVE heard it.. M

Dont ya love companies that stand behind their products? I LOVE it personally. Hard to find these days, so when you find one, keep buying their products...and STAY OUTTA WALMART... ;) M

Off season the walk ins/drive ins are on the "honor" system. They have a little box with "permits" you fill it out, put yer payment in the envelope and put it in the little box. When I was there a cop did cruise through the lot, but didn't check anything. Placed filled up FULL too, and as I said...

matter of fact...its ALREADY winter somewhere and that somewhere isn't too far away.... Don't know about cross posting here, but i'll do it this time. I'm usually won't do this, but someone turned this into sort of a winter STOKE...so... check it thought at least some would dig this...WISH I...

ummm im a skier so..YES.... M
