Granite Gear Pillowsack Stuff Sack Pillow
I bought this to replace a compressible camping pillow because I didn't want to carry around an extra piece of gear and its weight. Not only is this stuff sack lightweight (2 oz!), the fleece side is extremely comfy to sleep on. I tested it out on my living room floor the day it arrived with the rest of my sleep setup and almost fell asleep right then and there. I stuffed it with my Patagonia Micro Puff and a fleece pullover and it was just the right amount of stuffing needed. I love that it's small enough that I can put it in the hood of my sleeping bag so it stays put and doesn't slide around while I'm trying to sleep. I was looking into getting a dry bag pillow sack but decided the extra weight for the dry bag feature wasn't worth it since I'll be using a pack liner to keep all my stuff dry instead of using individual dry bags for everything. When I'm not using it as a pillow it takes up very little space in my pack and can even be used to keep other things organized if needed. A restful sleep is imperative to an enjoyable backpacking experience, and this pillow sack definitely helps me accomplish that. It only weighs 2 oz but provides me with the ability to be comfortable and sleep well on the trail. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who hates inflatable pillows as much as I do but still wants a good night's sleep.

Vargo Titanium 24 oz Bot
Seals well and is very lightweight. I’m excited to use this on upcoming backpacking trips. I wanted a sealable container to pre-soak homemade dehydrated meals. I’m a bit concerned 24 ounces won’t be quite enough for a full meal so we’ll see. Having a sealable container will also be good for cleaning - just add some water, secure lid, and shake to clean.
