Great Value for This Pad

Written on Feb 22, 2023

I ordered the Big Agnes Air Core Ultra Sleeping Pad (wide regular) and am happy with the purchase. Great value for a very durable pad. Very comfortable and made with thick material. I don't worry much about it blowing out because of the thick material and the fact it's so cheap. It's not the lightest but when durability counts, get this pad. It comes with an inflation sack but it's thick and heavy and hard to fill with air. The sack affixes easily and securely to the pad but if you want to shave some ounces, just leave it at home. I don't think you'll miss having the inflation sack. Maybe try one of your other lighter inflation sacks from another pad.

Lightweight and Good R Value

Written on Nov 06, 2022

I saw a lot of comments about the noise this pad makes. I didn't fine it to be loud at all. Also the included pump sack worked easily, just found it to be hard to unsnap the pump sack cap. It's made of hard plastic, but putting some chapstick around it and/or pushing the cap out from inside of the sack worked for me.

Size Fit As Listed

The Stretch Zion Pants Short Inseam - Men's fit as listed. The waist size was correct as well as the inseam size. Good looking pants with nice pockets. Color was as advertised. Pants were well worth the cost.

Mammut Comfort High GTX Hiking Boot - Mens

Written on Apr 13, 2018

A nice, lightweight high top hiking boot. The one thing I found wrong, or at least to me somewhat deceptive, is the weight listed for the boot(s). It's advertised at 1 pound...it show be noted that's per boot, not total weight. Total weight comes in at slightly over 2 pounds.

I normally wear a 91/2 wide. I ordered a size 10 regular (there are no wide sizes) and that worked out to be a great fit for me.

Customer service was excellent and the on-line chat I had with Campsaver really helped in choosing this boot.

BearVault Bear Cannister 500

Written on Apr 03, 2018

After spending some time reviewing other canister manufacturers I choose BearVault. Reasons are weight to size and price. Lid is difficult to open as many others have mentioned. The easy way to open is to insert a old plastic credit card between the tab as you're twisting it to open. It's easy to figure out. The 500 is a good size and should easily hold food for one person for 7 days.
