[QUOTE="Mike_60, post: 2020368, member: 16957"] Since the OP was asking specifically about BOB items I didn't bother mentioning long term food choices. I tried the Morman thing once asking if outsiders were allowed access, but frankly, they were a bit less than friendly to my asking, so I went another route. I guess I'll have to take a look at Summit sometime if someone will share where it is? BTW OP, most of these places have lots of sales nearly all the time on some great gear. It isn't too difficult to put together some pretty good kit pretty fast and even reasonably priced (but not Walmart pricing). Make yourself a list of the items you need and start finding the kit that best matches the need to your available cash. Once you get it, take it for a spin, and see if it works for you. For instance, BallisticsGuy likes Marmot and they make great gear, but for me I prefer Patagonia. It isn't because I think they make better products than Marmot, personally, I believe the product lines are about the same in quality. It's simply that Patagonia styles seems to fit me better. But clothing aside, it is that same way with nearly everything you buy. Once you get it, and play with it, you'll know if it is for you or not. One more piece of advice, don't get caught up in some keyboard commando's BS that you need the latest forum fad cr@p, because you don't. Buy the best you can afford that will last, and what works for you, making sure it all works well together as a complete package. [/QUOTE]
