Therm A rest NeoAir XLite Sleeping Pad

Written on Oct 31, 2017

The main reason I bought it was because it is very compact and would therefore not occupy a big space in my pack. It is very light and very comfortable too. Does not take very long to inflate it manually. A bit pricey and some may find it noisy but to me the pad serves its purpose very well.

Granite Gear Blaze AC 60

Written on Oct 31, 2017

Granite Gear is not widely known in my country and I based the purchase simply on the pack winning the Backpacker Magazine 2011 Editor's Choice Award. After a few trips it does not disappoint me and I knew why it won the award. Yes it has a very simple design (some would say boring) but it serves a lot of purposes. It can pack a lot of things inside and the body can easily be expanded to provide more space. It is very light too. I also like the molded foam pad that provides comfort to my back especially when carrying heavier load. The downside would probably be the absence of top lid which can easily be fixed with the line-loc lid.

Granite Gear Line Loc Lid

Written on Oct 31, 2017

Very light and big enough to store my headlamps, snacks and other important small items. However, during my first trip using it I did not attach it to my Granite Gear Blaze. Instead I used it as a hip pack. It is still very convenient to use and will definitely put it on top of my Blaze in coming trips.

Mountainsmith Pinnacle Trekking Pole

Written on Oct 31, 2017

For that price it is an absolutely excellent purchase. It is is easy to adjust the height, very light and the handle offers a very good grip. I did not use any pole before but after using Mountainsmith it will definitely become a must-bring item for my next trips. I would also look forward to purchasing another pole.
