In my neck of the woods they have a yearly 'recycled fashion show' and I'd say you're looking good for the runway Piper!

It looks perfect for fast hiking on a foggy, moonless night!Apr 13, 2012 at 7:55 pm #1867076
Not good most of the the time but I am always happy and in the zone.Apr 13, 2012 at 9:36 pm #1867095I think that is actually a very clever UL full body cast, applied in the field. Maybe a broken back from some freak accident?
Apr 19, 2012 at 9:57 am #1869019Well, the story is that it had poured rain the day before, my cheap poncho had failed miserably and all my clothes were still soaking wet in the morning. I was freezing and this was what I had on hand to add a little warmth for the final 4 miles out to my car.

Jul 12, 2012 at 9:22 am #1894252I noticed my favourite R1 Hoody matches my latest pair of Montrail Mountain masochists. Oh, and my new Jam matches my Supervisor. I'm a regular fashion model on the trail I guess :)

I'm still laughing about it
