8211; ultralight backpacking gear reviews. Granite Gear Virga 26. May 3, 2015. Virga 26 fully loaded for 3 days/2 nights.

So when I saw the Gossamer Gear Warm Sack. 550ml pot fits perfectly, simply roll the excess extension collar down the side. 550 in the Warm Sack with a Ruta Locura Carbon fiber lid (also a perfect fit).

A few pictures of some of the Organizations and products we support. We always encourage you to support your local gear makers and small business owners. Also support your local trail clubs and Trail Maintainers. And always Leave No Trace! Our clothing fluctuates so much and its more of a personal choice about what to wear. Don't wear cotton is the only thing we suggest. I usually wear a convertible pant of some sort and a cotton free shirt. Its more of a personal choice. Granite Gear Vapor Trail.
