Kirk and I came across the line of Febreze Sport Spray recently at Target (look in the laundry cleaning product aisles) and it is carried by other big retailers including grocery stores and drug stores. Designed to be used on items you can’t launder such as shoes, gear, backpacks and more it cuts the stench [...]

A few weeks ago I had the chance to finally meet author Craig Romano in person – I was lucky enough to attend one of his presentations and as it turned out it was his first one for his latest book: Backpacking Washington: Overnight and Multi-Day Routes To put it lightly it has been far [...]

This past weekend I came across a line of reusable fabric bags sewn here in Washington State. They come in two sizes, snack bag and sandwich bag size. The bags are made by Mama Luvs. They have two options, Velcro closure and drawstring. Both work great but I found that the Velcro one would be [...]

This spring JetBoil brought out a new stove system, the JetBoil SOL Advanced Cooking System. The JetBoil systems (of which there are a number of) are either rabidly loved or hated on.

I was thinking last night on just how many FBC cozies (Freezer Bag Cooking) I have made over the years (and I honestly have no idea, unless I ran the sales for them. All I know is I have sewn every single one of them and there has been many….). It has gotten harder to [...]
