I’ve been using the High Sierra Tokopah 6.0 hydration pack for a couple of months now and have liked having water available at anytime. This is especially important when riding my bike or Elliptigo and much safer than reaching down for a water bottle IMHO. I found some things I really liked about the pack and others I wasn’t so thrilled about but to find out read my update by clicking here.

I will be reviewing the High Sierra Tokopah 6.0 hydrationpack for the next few months. It features a 2 L reservoir and a handy place to store a helmet. There is enough room in the pack for a rain jacket and other essential gear I might need on a bike ride or day hike. To read my initial thoughts please click here.

Home for the night
I used the Slumberjack Lapland 20 F on a 3 day 2 night trip along the Pinhoti Trail in east central Alabama. It turned out to be rather warm for January but I managed to get the bag wet. Did I mention we saw some storms… Anyways, the sleeping bag performed nicely, even when wet. To read the rest of the update please click here.

Getting a drink from the Lifestraw Go
I don’t have a lot to add this time so I’ll just relate how I used the Lifestraw Go on my most recent hike. It works really well but I still find it easier to drink from a regular water bottle. Which makes sence since the water in the Go is being filtered on the go, or is that in the Go…. To read the rest of the update please click here.

I have thorougly enjoyed using the Mazama Windigo 3L bladder. It really shinned on a recent hiking trip on the Pinhoti Trail. I found it not only easy to drink from but keeping it clean was a breeze. To read the rest of my thoughts please click here.
