Cottage Gear Guide: Ultralight Hiking & Backpacking Gear from Small, Startup, and Cottage Brands

Thanks for your patience – we were tied up with Trail Days Online the past few days. I think your suggestions in this forum were very good. We moved the sponsorship disclosure to the very top, and reworded it for additional clarity.

Good idea. I know I often skim through the newsletter looking for the meat and even with red lettering, the disclaimer was fairly easy to miss.

I think GGG fits our goals better than REI. While BPL is gathering a larger world audience, perhaps coverage might included a few international sponsors? It would be interesting to see what’s happening outside of the states.

Thank you making the changes. It was the responsible thing to do.
