today I was out in 15 F for 6 hours. There were times when I had my hat off and jacket open. I guess I get used to the cold. Was wearing my mountaineering socks too. Felt good.


mittens??




actually Marmot and Outdoor Research make killer mitts as well.


oh, this little olight S15 is pretty incredible for the size, came with an extension tube as well. Love it so far.

If it's dry, it isn't overly windy, and you are moving around while wearing decent clothing, 15* isn't all that cold really.

For me it gets cold in that scenario if I do enough work that I start breathing hard. That lung burn. Or of course if you do not have proper clothing or are sitting still.

It was reading a -15 F windchill.
I was out in it at least 6 hours.
Most people cannot handle that.
Proper clothing is everything.

going to be doing an open bivy Friday night again. Supposed to be around 0 F.

The wind can really get you. And that ^ wind chill bites pretty hard.

And yes, proper clothing is hyooge

I might not own expensive suits (jeans and t shirt guy) but I do spend good money on winter/outdoor gear.

Guys at the local outdoor store said this one Marmot jacket is the real deal when it comes to being waterproof and breathability. Need to track it down. Cannot afford a $600 Arcteryx right now.

[Farley1324]

Damn, now that's a souvenir

Yankee fan here (in Boston area). Great piece of history. Go Bombers!

What does it have to do with outdoor gear thread though?

Hopefully. Personally I think it's being over hyped, but they sure make it sound like a big deal.

Not what I wanted to spend money on, but with a 13 month old who doesn't sleep with covers/blankets and still 'requires' milk 3x per day, and not having a generator...I guess it was time. Good to have for the big window (sits inside with pipes not sits in window) A/C in case of summer storms too.

Ive never owned a Spyderco to be honest. I just dont have good luck with tips being that thin on knives.

Why is that?

Do they have a raised heel?

Non compressible heel?

Looks like somebody cashing it on the OMGZCROSSFIT craze to me?

Lol leave it up to Farley..

Raised and stiff. But still able to run in em. I cant afford shoes for the gym and shoes to run plus something casual. I work with a guy who is a Reebok representative so he gets 20% off.

Ive never bought into crossfit honestly. Sorry this wasnt the dramatic cultfit response you were looking for.

I didn't expect a cultfit response. I was referring to the shoe, not the poster.

Even cultfit equipment can be a good choice for sane people lol

Here and there. Busy with the Kiddo and getting ready for a new job. All that adult ****.

Both beat the hell out of the alternative.

edit: fawk I have so many things I should post to catch up in this thread. I bought a nice Leupold 3.5-10x50 VX-L and slapped it on the .270wsm. That scope and combo with factory Fusion ammo is putting 3 shot groups all touching eachother. I've never had a scope/rifle/factory ammo combo this damn good before.
