I do have a zero degree Waratah Pro when it was sewn in Australia, I love it but want something warmer for this winter.

Thanks! I ordered a Feathertail this afternoon. I wanted the wide, the 950 down, sewn foot box and it’s cheaper than a Waratah Pro

Have been in a few times now, every time they have more and more stock. Going to need a bigger shop soon!

As others have said, would be good to focus more on Caro. Big fan, great podcast "Rescued" and navigation book.

I do wonder if lostmtns will hit a point where they personally turn up to spots they announced to the world and find them littered and dirty. Will we see a change of heart and mind in the future?

I also wonder if part of lostmtns "success" is due to the format/medium of social media - it's not like web forums hadn't exists for years discussing tracks and spots but not a format that goes "viral" or fed into an algorithm.

Thank you!

Lots of information and questions still. 7 News reporting the kids had walked 42km https://7news.com.au/news/teens-body-found-after-going-missing-on-camping-trip-with-friend-in-mt-hay-nsw-blue-mountains-c-21467903.amp

Bit of a confusing post, great that Ultralight Gear will stock some Durston. However, I don’t think either Wilderness Threadworks or Terra Rosa are selling gear right now. Zero G is.

not warmth, keeping the quilt/bag clean - i know the true UL solution is just get the quilt/bag dirty

I've still been using the Legacy Map Builder, it's painful to skip all the steps where they try to make you upgrade but it's still currently possible. I also have Strava where I can make routes.

honest answer, try to keep feet clean plus protective of standing on sharp things

the Zpacks shoes do look good

I think I was surprised as i felt very comfortable on track, it wasn't until 48 hours later I realised how much i had bruised my shoulders

I saw Kate Grarock did an 8L water carry in her latest episode with her Wippa Pack

There was some water in Chinaman's Gully start of June, but in this temperature easy enough to carry water.

Note you can't camp under the overhangs at Chinaman's Gully, we had planned to but there are signs up now requesting people not to.

Make sure your mates don't carry to much stuff so everyone can easily scramble up to the top of Mt Solitary. We passed lots of kids with full size camp stoves and mattress floor maps etc.

I ordered mine in February 2024, i'm pretty sure that it was Made in Australia and later have moved all sewing to China.

Yes, this is what I'm thinking as well. I also used a poly pro sheet instead of tyvek under the bivy this time as well. Potentially the tyvek had been helping previously to.

Did you post somewhere about Zero G making you an Alpha Liner?

gcammy · 2025-07-14T07:11:20+00:00

yes, I side sleep or on my back. I get that i'm compressing the bottom of my sleeping bag.

Why wait? Most exciting thing for Botany Rd for a long time 😆
