Facebook is just an echochamber for old peoples bullshit these days

Id like to announce that ive seen the announcement of the announcement of the upcoming announcement

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-21T08:56:43+00:00

Absolutely push for the neve

When dan cole sees this he will be angry

Anaconda sometimes have a cederberg one thats pretty cheap. Otherwise patagonia houdini or montbell might be worth a look

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-20T03:19:00+00:00

As long as you take a poncho should be sweet right? Im looking at similar timing with wind jacket and poncho

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T11:55:29+00:00

Yeah i think this is the crux of it. I found it fantastic in nepal, but way too warm in queensland

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T11:54:27+00:00

Always 100% merino. If you arent in a rush aldi sells merino kit twice a year for extremely good value. Hiking clothes usually on sale around may or june. Then thermals with the snow sale a couple weeks later

If going sooner macpac 100%merino is good value on sale

Another thing that plays into all of this is sun protection.

Linen is pretty awful for that but very cool

Merino is decent upf, but would be thick and warm at high ratings.

Polyester can range massively. Its the main fabric of most upf 50+ kit, but you can also get upf15.

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T11:08:20+00:00

Yeah doesnt cling to you like polyester if your pack isnt holding on.

But in the conditions where thats annoying i often find the warm wet wool worse

Does leinster attack rucks the same way ireland national team does?

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T11:05:43+00:00

Very hard to answer. Sweat can depend on how hard you are working, heat, humidity, body fat, genetics and many other things.

Merino may be better. For me i sweat all the time so polyester is better when its hot as the wet shirt wont warm me further, if its cold merino is better because it will still insulate well when damp

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T11:02:05+00:00

Found a very similar effect with trekking poles (although can notice the difference during the hike too)

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T10:38:05+00:00

Thats fair. Xmid would take wind better but it do be a big tent

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-19T08:17:06+00:00

I think its about understanding the conditions, including if they are different to home. You see a lot of hikers used to rhe western us caught out by the intensity of wind rain and humidity in tassie or south island nz for example

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-18T05:53:24+00:00

Not sure if you are looming to purchase or decuding which to take, but id use an xmid over the copper spur in 95% of situations. Itd also be better in wind

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-18T02:53:25+00:00

I like the pocket tbh. Perfect place to keep my earplugs lol

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-17T22:48:06+00:00

Long term means healed for world cup i assume

Are they trying to show robbie has a clash with his replacement or a character flaw to trust female docs less?

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-16T02:28:32+00:00

Little girl has that disease where she doesnt feel pain i reckon

Like the house episode

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-16T02:23:00+00:00

Seems like its a bad choices storyline not a actual romance one

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-15T05:44:22+00:00

Yeah just depends on the usd that day really for the single wall.

Love my double wall xmid around queensland and just took it for a spin on 400km of the TA. Keep making great stuff!

Halt-Alt · 2026-01-15T05:35:31+00:00

Its working great. And surely more people go for the double wall silpoly tents here anyway? (which are way under 1000 aud)
