Bear Deterrent Bear Spray Review

Bear Deterrent Bear Spray
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you determine that you need pepper spray this one works.Originally, when I was terrified of bears, I bought this spray to defend myself in case of a bear encounter. Now that I have lived around bears for four summer seasons at a bear viewing lodge in Alaska and understand them better, I still carry pepper spray. With a little practice and understanding of the medium this can be an effective defense if you should need it. It improves your attitude of confidence, and an attitude of confidence is often your best defense. I don't expect to use mine anymore, but having it with me and accessible makes my outdoor experiences more enjoyable. Like many bear experts say, it is not brains in a can, but it is lighter than a gun, takes less expertise and won't kill anything, including you.

Easy, light weight, use any where ( indoors or out).This belongs in every relief workers go kit.After third trip to Haiti this year I may never go anywhere without it.Space inside for your stuff and you can sit inside to read or rest without the bugs getting to your lights.A simple tarp or rain fly over the top makes this into atent in the sun or rain.Solid floor keeps ground bugs out.Great gift for campers as well.

Mountain House #10 Can Freeze-Dried Food Review

Mountain House #10 Can Freeze-Dried Food
Average Reviews:

For backpacking, you can't beat the weight savings of freeze-dried food.For some reason, the Mtn House rice doesn't agree with me, so I got the can of Diced Chicken.It's actually cheaper--in bulk--instead of buying their pro-paks.Plus, Mtn House puts way too much rice in their pro-paks.

The taste is, well, the taste of manufactured, cooked chicken.What do you expect?Don't get me wrong; it tastes well enough to eat, and on the trail it tastes better.

One serving (on my scales) weighs 1 oz.Amazing.Unbeatable.

I bought some Lipton freeze-dried chicken fried rice and will divide it up with the chicken for easy, on-the-trail food-making (in those Ziplock ZipnSteam bags).

If you don't have your own dehydrator, the weight savings alone is incredible--and worth it.Highly recommended for backpacking!

SansBug 1-Person Mosquito-Net Tent Review

SansBug 1-Person Mosquito-Net Tent
Average Reviews:

The item can be assembled and disassembled in seconds, and is nice and compact. The main drawback is you have to add in about 8 to 10 inches more of the length in order to fit comfortably. We needed to fit in a 6'8" person and the dimension specs appear to enough with some extra room. The length wise ends slope inwards and then up, so this takes away valuable room. The head and the toes touched each of the tent. The width is good and sufficient. We returned this item, and ended up buying one from REI locally for $90, which is twice the price of this. Summary: if you are 6 feet tall or under, this product would be good for you.
