Sam, as many blogs as you list, I wonder if you are using Google Reader to follow the blogs. I use Google Reader to follow a ton of web sites, my hiking folder of blogs are the following. I highly recommend using Google Reader as it enables you to follow 100-times the websites you normally follow in zero extra time, it is that efficient at keeping you abreast quickly.

All i read has been mentioned before, so i'll try to name my favorites:

adventuresinstoving – very very thorough on everything stove, good pictures.
hikinginfinland – Hendriks "The week in review" is awesome.
nielsenbrownoutdoors – his reviews are very good, and he is located in Denmark ;-)
briangreen – a really nice site to read – good humor, good design, good reviews
hikeitlikeit – great reviews,
backpackingnorth – Marks "Ultralight Makeover" is awesome!

i read a lot fewer Blogs than i used too – way to much blablabla,diary, blablabla, bad pictures, blablabla in the blogosphere. But i know it's hard work to make a good blog (and a good Forum post… ;-)

This forum is still the best place for accurate information, but you need to get involved and ask the right questions to benefit the most.

Another Honorable mention is:

hikelighter – have to be impressed by John's commitment to the SUL/XUL backpacking.

I have a lot of reading to do, I guess. Two blogs I have been reading are these:

David Stillman's: http://davidstillman.blogspot.com/
Jack Elliot:http://yankeebarbareno.com/

They are So Cal based, and hike all over that area. I grew up near there, and had no idea of the great places to hike that they find. Also, how can those canyons and creeks be so remote and seldom visited when they are so close to Los Angeles. Its pretty amazing.

My own outdoor blog is here: http://backpackingtechnology.com/
