they are too thin. other brands will have more down in them and insulate you more.

im looking for a pair of soft shell pants. what are you guys using? i have a pair of the rei taku pants that i use when its warmer, they seem to work ok. just dont have a ton of faith in rei gear. and a pair of full xcr bibs for when its ugly. but lately i have been getting to hot. now i am the sweaty kid. i think about moving and i sweat. so i started looking at the arcteryx gamma ar and mx pants. anyone have these? how do they work in warmer mountianering/alpine activities. how about hardwears conduit softshell? at this point im not set on anything specific so im open to sugestions.

Buying a concealed weapon, what's your flavor?

ive got a benelli with 00 buck behind the door for the same purpose -
i wouldnt count on the road being open that late in the year. will all the snow that the mountian has had in the last few days i wouldnt be suprised if they close the upper gate. it is 9 miles from the point where the pavement ends/dirt road starts to the parking lot where you start hiking. the upper gate is prolly at the half way point. we were up there last sunday in the rain/blizzard and with the start of late dear and elk season the road is in rough shape. i went up there in a forrester and there were a few parts that made my ass pucker. but yes there is a hut up at around 6800 feet it was though, filled with snow because the last people there didnt close the door thingy

auto or wheel gun?? how about a little ppk? with the right ammo it good stopping power. i have always liked the sub compact glocks, but they are a bitch to shoot in the heaver calibers. i have a friend that loves the new springfied xd's they come in anything from full size to subs -

climbnsparky replied to lancegranite's topic in Spray
go take a class and learn how to use it first. then decide what you want in a weapon. dont just buy a glock cause someone tells you too, stick it in your pants and head out to the mall. thats how bad shit happens. handle and fire as many as you can. there is alot of options out there, it all depends how big you are, where and how you want to conceal it, and ultimatley how much gun you can handle. -

Any thoughts on the Arcteryx Alpha SL?
climbnsparky replied to zeroforhire's topic in The Gear Critic
i have got a theta sl which is half pac-lite half xcr. i think it might weigh 16oz. definatley light enough for me. i dosent breath as well as a full xcr jackett, thats why i have a alpha sv also. it is a great in the pack jacket for the summer time, but it stays home when i head up to the mountains. if im worried about the weather i will carry the extra 5.5 ozs of the alpha sv. pit zips help...... a little, but not enough to make up the lack of breathability of paclite. i agree with what was posted earlier, light weight doesnt mean durability. if you have a prodeal with them look at the alpha lt and theta or beta sl. if this is their fall clinic special it is a serious deal. take advantage of it. -
i figured there had to be knee pads involved
