  1. Thanks for the write up, I like your new Nomics! I am supprized how much the tool swing changes when you add the Petzl hammer on, I can see why the light you can make the hammer and the closer the weight is to the head can really make a difference. I am looking forward to your new CT hammer!
  2. suck! Why cant a company make a product that is strong and durable for us who use our gear like it is supposed to be use, I mean these boots are like $500 bucks! Whats up?
  3. when on approaches I use a wind-block fleece glove or a liner power-stretch type glove. I know what you are saying about hand sweat, I found that if I take less layers off of my core my hands stay cooler, or if I add say a puffy vest under my shell my hands stay warmer. Cold training your hand helps as well.
  4. yeah snow in AK is more dry, but I was in waist deep to head deep unconsolidated snow and had to excavate and tunnel up peak 11,300. During the day time I never took my gloves off an I think that helped. As far as the membrane goes I would be curious what the actual differences are.
  5. I used one pair the punisher gloves which have the BDry for three days straight in AK last spring through wallowing conditions and my hands stayed dry, I was pretty amazed. I have a pair of MH gloves with the Outdry and have been very impressed as well. I also have a pair of older OR Extravert gloves with Gortex and have had good luck. So as far as keeping hands dry I have not noticed a huge difference, but I think the outdry works the best from my tests, I have not been disjointedness with the punisher though.

  10. I recently purchased a set of new Quarks for "the boss" and was anxious to try and use the upper hand match / trigger on my old style quarks and this is what I found. The trigrest does not fit the old Quark in the way it works on the new Quark. Meaning it is not able to move up and down the shaft, so it is used as a fixed piece. Here it is on the upper shaft. Here is the trigrest lower down on the shaft. Note that I am using the trigger as well, but you do not have too. It get a super sold fit, it may be beneficial to use a small rubber shim for a tight fit. Here is a comparison of the two tools. They have almost identical dimensions. Old quark 24ounces New quark 20 ounces Feel free to post questions, ideas or comments.
  11. Dually is hands down the best piece I have ever purchased from Arcteryx and was well worth the money (I got it on sale) for my trips to AK. I also like their Alpha LT jacket, and Gamma MX pants work super well, and Cierzo packs are nice. Find the stuff on sale and its not bad at all, Arcteryx fits me better then the Westcomb gear.
