		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m on the hunt for the perfect hiking skirt, and I&#8217;ve had to do some digging. The skirt that I am currently using is a X from Patagonia, and it has served me well. But it it is missing a few things I&#8217;d like to have.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been rethinking my backpacking routine after reading Ray Jardine&#8217;s Trail Life. #3: Healthy eating habits. Jardine and his wife, Jenny, carry whole fruits and vegetables on their trips, and I&#8217;m not talking the dried variety here. They bring bags of fresh produce- heavy, non-calorie dense, fruits and veggies. This is not how I eat [...]

Gatorade has been my mainstay since High School when my track coach introduced me to the mix and I began sprinkling the powder on bananas and bread to make sandwhiches. [...]

Actually, I have a terrible record with them and should probably be kept away from flammable materials in general. All of that changed when I met this tiny little stove, the Vargo Triad. It would seem like [...]

Because I have a great deal of respect for him, I am taking his recommendations very seriously. First up: Sleeping bags.
