Sticky cams become not sticky cams

Review for
Metolius Cam Lube
Does exactly what it says it does. I had a few cams that were sticky, cleaned them with hot water and then applied cam-lube. Operation is back to buttery smooth, like new, and smooth action. Couldn't be happier!
Stiff, aggressive, and light.

La Sportiva TX Guide Approach Shoes - Men's
Just what I was looking for in a lighter weight approach shoe. This thing is super light, very stiff and has e very aggressive outsole. It does have a very narrow last and runs just a touch small so take that into consideration when ordering.
Fantastic jeans for climbing.

Black Diamond Forged Denim Pants - Men's
By far and away the stretchiest and most comfortable jeans I have ever owned. They do seem to run just a touch small in the waist, but not too bad. These are great for climbing and other outdoor pursuits where you are not worried about getting wet so the cotton is no big deal, but you are worried about abrasion and spikes plants so you want something very durable.
Super Comfy

Exped MegaMat Duo 10 Sleeping Pad
It's big, it's heavy, it's worth it. You are not using this for anything but car camping, but it is extremely comfortable. If you are looking for the ultimate in campsite comfort without bringing an actual mattress then this is your go-to. It's insulated so it's warm when the temps drop, unlike most double size air mattresses, only about 4 inches thick, but really nicely padded so it's comfortable even for side sleepers.

It's a giant duffel bag.

Mountainsmith Large Travel Trunk Duffel Bag
It's a basic giant duffel bag. Made of a fairly heavy material and holds lots of stuff. It can be hard to find an inexpensive bag that will hold up to some abuse and be big enough to keep things properly organized. I use this bag to keep gear all in one place in the back of the truck so I don't have dig around to find everything I'm looking for. It's big enough to hold 4 ropes, ten harnesses, and ten helmets in one bag.
Great lightweight but durable crag bag.

Black Diamond Crag 40 Backpack
Great bag for the price. Holds a double rack, 60m rope, shoes, and helmet easily. It gets a bit tight if I throw in #5s and #6s, but I can't fault the bag for that. It's plenty durable for regular runs to the crag but is not as burly as a haul bag, if you want that just buy a haul bag. Definitely not a bag that you would want to wear while climbing and while durable I don't know that it would do well being dragged on a granite slab. Overall great for hauling your gear to the crag for a day of running multiple shorter routes.
Great Jacket!

Marmot Kirwin Jacket - Men's
I live and work at a camp, this jacket stays with me all the time. This works really well to block out wind and rain in the summer without being too hot, but also works incredibly well throughout the colder months too. With a light insulating layer it's really warm and the outer shell holds up really well to all of the abuse of being used every day and rolling around in my backpack everyday.
