Man that is pricey for those pads. You most likely won't need the inflator since those are self inflating pads. I have an old self inflating thermarest and don't see myself going back to it after using the Klymit ones I have. They pack much smaller if you're into backpacking and I toss and turn...
I posted that same video in this post:http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/147148-Best-sleeping-pad?p=2051733#post2051733
:elkgrin:
All I used was a plastic trash bag with one closed corner cut off and a rubberband from the inside.
I just received a Klymit Static V-luxe Insulated pad and from previous experience with inflatable pads I wanted something that didn't leave me breathless. I stumbled across the following video. While not the best quality I tried this method with a small trash bag and rubber band. Skip to the...
My tarp awning works great other than in dire winds. During windy conditions I took it down but covered my table and items near my truck by securing the tarp over the items. So it does double duty. I tried to figure out how to set up my larger tarp but the wind began and it would have been an...

I have a shell with a couch and usually push the bed in during the day. Those four cushions that make up the second half of the bed just go on the main area unless in transit. When traveling 2 cushions go behind the couch and the other two under the table on the passenger side. You will find...
Yeah better not get one of these crappy coolers...mine only kept ice and cold drinks for a week. Kidding of course. My cooler worked as needed over a five day trip through Death Valley. Very happy.
Been running the Goodyear Wrangler-All-Terrain-Adventures in this size for a couple years and over 40k miles. My friend has been using these same tires for maybe a little less time but has much more off road miles than I do. He's not had any issue. No flats...
Wow how cool. Thanks for the info. Yes making something on your own and having it work out gives one a sense of pride. I was thinking about using the following but for the cost of the walmart pots that seems even better. I don't have a plasma cutter though but I'm also not worried about hot...
Any experiences with wood-fuel stoves?
I've looked at the following but figure I can make my own. It is essentially two steel pots with drill holes.

I purchased the same thing. I got two sets for $50 using the following link:

Nice report. Sounds like DV has caught you and you will never be the same. I've never been the same since I first gazed down on Butte Valley from high in the Panamints.
I asked my friends what I was looking at...the answer came with deep inflection...
DEATH VALLEY!
Interesting thread.
I recently went about weighing most of the items I take on my trips and keeping that information in a spreadsheet. Mind you I have the way I pack my FWC down pretty well. Even with that it usually seemed as though I was weighed down when embarking for a trip. Over the 7ish...
