Therm-a-Rest NeoAir UberLite Sleeping Pad
I switched from the neoair xlite to the uber lite earlier this year. After using it for about 20 days on the trail I can say that I’m very happy I made the switch. It is lighter and packs down much smaller than my xlite and is much quieter too. I’m a side sleeper and find that it is just as comfortable as the xlite when the weather is warm.
Simple and good!

Review for
Granite Gear Virga 2 Backpack
I’ve had this pack for about a year and have used it for winter, spring and summer trips. My typical base weight is 12lbs and this pack works great. For longer trips with heavier food loads, I find that the shoulder straps are to thin and start feeling uncomfortable when carrying more than 25lbs. That said, the construction seems solid and I think the pack could easily handle heavier loads if you’re willing to sacrifice comfort. Pro’s include the solid construction, great price, the simplicity of the pack, large front and side pockets, it has load lifters (rare on packs this light and minimalist) and it is very light weight. Con’s: no hip belts, and the sternum strap is hard to adjust.
