Couldn't resize the torre pic.
Oh, naturally, both pairs have instep/crampon/boot reinforcement. They were both "flagship" pants when new.

Arc'teryx packs are great - try ebay and get a used one.
Saw a Bora 70, started out low.
Since it is perceived as "Dated" becaue they update all the designs, you can get a great backpack for a good deal less than the amount you would have paid jut a year or two ago.
Unless you want to go straight to new, then Arc'teryx's fabric is pretty waterproof.
That's a bonus in getting the new packs.

HA! That's nothing!
These guys in NYC - ghettofabulous types - have been hoarding and buying up north face steeptech jackets. They even have meets! Like 12 guys in 92-98 steeptech gear, petty funny

PM sent on the Prana/MTtn Hardwear items

Well, how cushy is the padding in the shoulderstraps?
pretty depleted I am guessing?
If so, just see if the hassle of getting a so-so hipbelt replacement vs. a new pack - maybe it's time to indulge in a 1st pack buy in 25 yrs?
50lbs and weeklong = Bora 80 to me.
Try to get a used one to save on $$$

A-1, wore it twice around town, once ona day hike.
So basically brand new.
Wrong size

Try to find a Khamsin 62 used. They were good, light, and well priced. If you can get your volume down, or don't mind side pockets, the arc'teryx Nozone is great: 3300 cubic inches, or 55 litres, tow 7075 stays (flex in the cold) and good features: swap the hipbelt for a webbing one, floating crampon patch is very handy, pretty durable.
But for the best priced pack in the range, check out
www.mec.ca - you'll be amazed by the quality of affordable gear.

Women's shell is the Thunderlight, Women's Large, Yellow/black. 3ply. Pared down version of their "flagship" jacket. Lightweight, very good design and cut.
Durable too. Pic is in the next post
$100? Condition is very good to excellent.
Men's is $125, forrest green, all specs can be seen here:

The Volant is a great, well designed down jacket.
The pockets close copletely over your wrists, which prevents outside air from blowing in = warm hands!
However, w.r.t to the price issue, I like the MHW SubzeroSL with hood
Seen it on sale on the net for $220 +/-
-
The best one I have seen for price and performance is the
Casio Exilim ex-Z750
a lot of manual options, a really big scree, a viewfinder, and a docking bay for transfering pics to the comp, and a recharger for the battery.
Good to great battery life too.
It comes in shiny, and a dark grey.
The nikon 7900 is good too, due to the grip, but for quality go Casio.

For a lower-than-oakely-price oakley style pair of sunglasses,
I really like the adidas merlin's.
THey fit my face a LOT better, the amber tint is good in many conditions, and it comes in small and large size frame options.
They get lots of compliments too. $100 CDN at full retail.

I have the preivous model with the solid fuel line.
Is there any serious real world downsides, or is was it done to minimize manufacturing costs (same part as other models)?
I have the XGKII witht eh solid line, and love it.
I do know that the addition of feet allow it to be sold in Canada, as I understand.
^^xgkII sat flat on the ground and that is a no-no according to the gov't.

It didn't fit my father, one size down![frown.gif](/threadz/images/graemlins/frown.gif)
So, gotta let it go since I don't wear L.
two inner zip, and two outer zip pockets (handwarmer setup, not napoleon).
I have a few more picutres for those interested.
I am looking for $275 delivered, negotiable.
Condition is off the coatrack new.
Johnnie Cochrane said "If it doesn't fit, you MUST ACQUIT!"
How true!
