ANOTHER COMMENT ABOUT ULTRA-LIGHT BACKPACKINGHi Jerry,One more comment about ultra-light sleeping bags. I backpacked for many years. I tried a 2lb bag and froze my a** off at 40 degrees. I started using one of your Ultra-Light bags 20 years ago and found that with a little effort it would compress enough to fit in my backpack. All the rest [...]
RESPONSE TESTIMONIALS TO YESTERDAYS ARTICLEThere is no arguing with the Ultra-Lite crowd....their sleeping bags, tents, ground pads and backpacks are made for speed while hiking not a good night sleep, long term durability or when the weather turns really nasty on them.

AN INTERESTING TESTIMONIALThanks for all your help, I will be calling you and placing an order in the next few weeks, if I cannot make a plan to come out to grand junction and order in person. Look what I found (pics attached) A 22 year old Ultima Thule, still vacuum packed! I can't wait to open [...]
AND THE BOOTS ARE GONE!!!Jerry,I spoke to you a few weeks ago about your chukka boots and how they would handle hot weather. I ordered a pair and have had a chance to wear them quite a bit now. Very comfortable. I have a narrow foot so I did add a standard drug store in-sole on top [...]
RECEIVED FROM A SEARCH AND RESCUE DOG HANDLERJerry,The mittens are on my list as I purchased them for a friend who runs. He has said his hands are finally not cold! I ask about the shoe dryer as it's too difficult to manage the leash and reward my dog, operate a radio and GPS with mittens. I much prefer [...]
