    0 Degree Sleeping Bag for Big Guys

    Personally. I’d try to get into both and see if the 6’6 needs to be ruled out. I’m only 6’3, so 6’6 bags are fine for my smaller stature.

    WTS Rab Microlight / Microlight Alpine XL

    Rab Microlight and Microlight Alpine (Hooded) jackets. Size XL. No rips or tears or holes. The Alpine jacket is just about brand new. Only discoloration on either is in the collar of the Microlight. Size is XL, which is no longer my size. Stuff sacks are included. Awesome, warm jackets. They...

    Mammut Taiss Mid Gtx

    Don’t know, but looking back, I should’ve bought a 47/13 vs 46-2/3//12.5. Until I started paying attention to European sizing, fit was usually hit or miss for me.

    Are City Firefighters Overpaid?

    You mean you aren’t lookin to attract attention doing something mundane? You must not have the ‘stache.

    Are City Firefighters Overpaid?

    EMS makes like a buck or two over minimum wage if they work private

    Are City Firefighters Overpaid?

    $200k/yr to drink beer all day seems underpaid to me, especially when you consider that they’ll be forced to retire in 25 years with only 95% pension (on highest grossing years which include saved up vacation) with which to buy the beer

    Mammut Taiss Mid Gtx

    I have like 80 miles in mine. One of my feet is high volume so the one side wrap tongue doesn’t seal too well, but I’ve had them on in snow, marshes and creeks and only ever got wet over the top. My 12.5s (should’ve got 13s) are 712 grams. They’re crazy light, very stiff and have a very nice...

    Thoughts on Zamberlan boots

    I think it’d help to buy your EU size as opposed to your US size. Brands convert differently. I have US13 Hanwags that would be ridiculously huge in Zamberlan US13 - Zamberlan EU47 is their US12. Hanwag is EU47 to US13, like Lowa and others. Top notch quality boot sizing aside!

    WaterPROOF and not as heavy as Hardscrabbles ??

    As noted, waterproofing is a temporary condition. My Tibets leaked at the flex point over the flex point over my big toe. I think thick leather will do something to help preserve the sock. The Tibets didn’t have particularly thick leather, as I recall, so they flexed more easily. My Hanwag...

    Boots under 200

    Steepandcheap.com and mountainsteals.com regularly have excellent quality stuff for half off. I’d go that route over getting a $200 MSRP boot. I think what you’re looking at is inflation. The $200 boots of a few years ago are no longer $200 boots.

    Closest you've been to a Brown Bear?
