Buzz THE OLYMPIAN | • Published May 15, 2009 COMMENTS (0) RECOMMEND (0) I am planning a number of long backpacking trips in the Cascades and Olympics, as well as climbs of PHOTOS Mount St. Helens, Mount Adams and Mount Rainier this summer. Recently, most of my old gear was stolen from my car. Can you recommend the best all-around light gear that is not too expensive but Real Estate Apartments Jobs Cars "My Teeth Are Now White" Read the trick, discovered by a mom, to turn her yellow teeth white! Learn more can hold up to the demands of the Pacific Northwest? – Michele, Portland What an awful drag: Seeing as I am a Pacific Northwest local, I know exactly Working Moms Can Win a $10,000 Scholarship what you need. Or at least, what I would need. And that refrain goes like this: DON'T Pay For White Teeth Learn the trick, discovered by a mom, to turn yellow teeth white w/under $10.

Love the Ariel 75 – 4,400 cubic inches in small, designed for A Quick Way to Raise Your Credit Score Ads by Media Force women, with fabulous suspension, excellent gear organization. Building strength and muscle without illegal substances Pretty light at 4 pounds, 10 ounces. And at $280, not a bad price, either. My close second choice, Gregory’s Deva 70 ($290). A little heavier pack (5 pounds, 5 ounces), and more TOP JOBS Certified Nursing Assistants Puget Sound Health Care heavily built. In my view, a pound in pack weight offers you several more options in terms of what you can carry comfortably, so keep that in mind. Try both. Salmon Recovery Restoration Biologist Nisqually Indian Tribe Boots: So many to choose from. I really like Asolo’s Stynger GTX ($195), a boot that is light but tough, waterproof, and built for a woman. Perfect for a light person and a moderate pack. Or try Montrail’s Blue Ridge ($170), or Scarpa’s Kailash GTX ($185). Fit is foremost, so find a good boot-fitter and try on several. Medical Biller / Administrative Assistant Are You Snoring Yourself To Death? Stove: Well, there is the white gas vs. canister question. But I like MSR’s Whisperlite Internationale ($90) for overall ease of use and reliability. If you are solo camping, then go for the Jetboil’s Personal Cooking System ($100). Medical Technologist/ Medical Laboratory Tech Grays Harbor Community Hospital Daycare Teachers Nisqually Indian Tribe Wet-Weather Gear: This one depends on budget. If limited, Marmot PreCip Rain Jacket ($99) is hard to beat. If you can go for it, get REI’s Shuksan ($289), which has the most excellent eVent fabric. Men’s cut only, but for a rain jacket that’s OK. find To ask a question of the Gear Guy, you can find Douglas Gantenbein at www.outsidemag.com.
