"Garmin’s holding company, Garmin Ltd., is based in Switzerland." Web site financials show nothing more.

Cheap and functional. No problems with brittle PVC. Used a hip belt. http://www.vftt.org/forums/showthread.php?43652-Budget-Pulk

No question that products like this help in recovery. My thought is just that your muscles were designed to support you. If you supplement them then they aren't going to get or remain as strong because they're not working as hard. Kind of like free weights vs. weight machines for lifting...

A thought on these and any supportive gear, including back braces. I can see their occasional use to aid in recovery or provide support under unusual conditions. I would think that extended use would end up weakening the muscles they're supposed to help from non-use...

I live in fleece of various weights in the cooler months. Have many brands including Bean's application of Polartec and find they all perform well as intended. I don't ever recall any being advertised as "waterproof". Breathable; yes, but the water tends to bead, not to be repelled. After...

Sometimes I miss greenies.

10/13/2014 Trail Conditions: Clear and well marked trail. Only real crossing was easy. Mix of painted marks and not too many cairns on the upper ledges might make route finding a touch iffy with snow. Special Equipment Required: Good rubber on boot soles for many steep rock walks. Poles...

I've moved back east from Utah and wanted to get out for a little outing so we combined a car camp at White Ledge campground (a nice little place) with a short hike on White Ledge Trail in late August. I'd been here before with my dog Nellie and enjoyed the simple terrain and exposed ledges up...

As stated above, hydrate a lot before and during. I'd also recommend constant light eating during exercise rather than bigger meals. Just makes breathing easier. Else should not be a huge deal .I was working at 10,000 swinging a pick-axe for lift maintenance at a ski area within a short time...

Mostly winter. Mostly solo. My last one really didn't count as I didn't catch a picture of that little piece of snow I saw...

I had a few things happen in late 2013 that ended up with me moving from Freeport, Maine to Park City, Utah. One of the changes is that I went from living and working at sea level to living at 6,000' and working at close to 10,000' at one of the local ski areas. Can you say acclimate...

Answer to the original question.. Same as summer. Bean Crestas with SmartWool socks and thin poly liners. The only thing I change is the height of my gaiters.

Not seeing the article either but I'm a bit confused by this statement.. The buyer will not be charged if negligent but will if reckless? Do they define the difference?

Mods - Please close. Drift has started. THanks.

Note the original question. I've ben using the yearly pass for quite some time and seeing fee tubes covered as I park..
