  1. Wondering if you guys have a preferred approach shoe. I know a lot of people just use running shoes and that is what I've used mostly, primarily the Brooks Cascadia trail running shoes, of which I've used since they came out...though I stopped for a while because it seemed like they got narrow for a couple of years (I don't know if they actually did, but I didn't like the way they felt when I tried them on). So I've been using those quite a bit, but man I pack them out quick. The ones I'm currently running (current year model) felt super packed out after a 15 mile day in the hills, and I don't think I had more than 400 miles into them. I know the life on running shoes it probably shorter than I want it to be. I switched to the Arcteryx Konseal FL approach shoes and I mostly like them, but even they are starting to seem a little packed out...or maybe I wish they had a shank. I used some Superfeet inserts and those stiffened them up a little, but still wish they had a shank...the bones in my feet were sore at the and of the day after 15-20 miles. My last outing in the hills with these and my feet felt no different than if I had used the Cascadias. I know it probably has to do with that I'm a lard ass (205 right now and dropping), but I just wish I could find the perfect light weight but burley shoes that maybe had a shank or at least better support/cushion. Maybe I need to try out the La Sportivas. I could also go back to just using mountaineering boots, but I sure like have lighter shoes for days when I'm covering more ground without glacier travel.

  3. REI Geo 6 tent in excellent condition available for sale. Geodesic style with rain fly. Used with my kids for car camping experiences. Used less than 15 nights. Tent is in excellent condition and in it’s original travel bag. $120 and I pay for shipping to you.
  4. Almost new men’s Garmont Tower Trek GTX (Gore-Tex) Hiking Boots Size 11.5 US / 46 EU. Note: I am told Garmonts run a half to a full size up from other brands. I wear a 44.5/11 in Lowa Renegades. $150 Paypal shipped add 3% if not paying via friends and family. I purchased these new from Backcountry Gear Eugene Fall of 2019 and used under 20 miles on a few hikes. Excellent boots, but the toe box does not fit my custom orthotics with my awkward pinky (broken) toes. I hate to sell as they were quite an expense, but they did not work for my weird toes. These boots are RESOLEABLE!

  5. Hello, I am determined to climb Denali in 2019. I move to Anchorage Alaska 3 months ago and am more than willing to do whatever it takes. I have never done a climb of this proportion, but I am a very experienced backpacker and will put in more time than needed to make up for whatever experience I may lack. Please let me know if you are interested or know of someone needing a team member.

  8. Size small. These were only worn once and are too small for me. No rips or stains or smells. These pants are in perfect condition. They are perfect for snow shoeing, skiing or any other winter activity. They're also backed by a lifetime warranty. If you rip them for any reason outdoor research will replace them for free. 140.00
