how does the igniter compare to the MHW compressor? I noticed they no longer use PL1 in the compressor...

how does the montbell thermawrap jacket compare to the nanopuff jacket as far as warmth and weight goes?

Thanks for all the information, seems like I have more reading than I thought. Those links are definitely helpful. I have already taken classes, and i have used some beacons in the past, but I just can't justify paying $600 for something I may only get to use a few times a year. I will not buy a "cheap" beacon, for obvious reasons such as safety and reliability, I'm just looking for something in between. I will look for a digital 3 antenna beacon, like suggested. The Mammut beacons look really nice, I will have to do some more searching to get the best new beacon that I can afford. I'll check out the backcountry sale as well. And once I find a beacon, I will make sure I know how to use it very well, before I take it outside. I've practiced with them before with friends' beacons, hiding the beacons and finding them at night. A fun exercise at the least Thanks for the help

Can someone recommend me an affordable/inexpensive avalanche beacon? I do some skiing, but would use it mostly on winter climbing excusions, and would like it have it for when I do more skiing in the future. I would prefer digital. Can someone brand/model that is reliable as well? Thanks

I have a large FF Volant jacket for sale. Size large. Great condition, small seal sealed snag on the back (barely noticeable) Bought this off CC almost a year ago and have used it once. Short on money so I need to sell $220 OBO You pay shipping from Victoria, BC. email me for pics and more info: roberts.sw AT gmail DOT com Thanks!

Awesome, the pictures really help to understand the fit. Thanks!

thanks for the help everyone. I will keep trying my layer systems and see what fits best. I know the pros/cons of down vs synthetic, I just was unsure about the amount of room the down jackets need. Makes sense now though. Dane: thanks for the blog link, I will check that out tonight.
