Most comfortable pack I have ever put on. It makes 50 lbs feel like 10. Pro's: All the adjustablity options on the harness, esp. w/ its quick adjust hipbelt feature. Hipbelt pockets rock as does the water bottle holder. I can fit my sleeping bag, crash pad and pillow into the sleeping bag area w/ room to use. The bladder pouch can fit two 3 liter bladders if needed. Con's : The only thing I would like on this pack is a side access point. The middle access point is through the front pocket, so if ya hav lots of random items in there you may have to take it all out to get to the middle of the pack. Overall a GREAT pack though and I highly recommend!!
Sleeping Bag Water Test Pt. I:
In this gear test, Shannon Davis jumps in three sleeping bags and we hose them down to see how each one handles high-force rain.

Sleeping Bag Water Test Part II:
Yeah, we know you probably won't ever get fully submerged in a raging river while in your sleeping bag, but that's not good enough for us.

Q.}
On an episode of Survivorman, Les Stroud cooked grasshoppers, stating if you didn't, you might get a tapeworm. But he ate a raw scorpion–couldn't one just as easily get a tapeworm from a scorpion?

Here's what I think I know: Grasshoppers are herbivores. They can eat tapeworm eggs and larvae, maintain them in their gut, and pass them to you.
