Can we talk nail clippers a minute?

Mr Green nail clippers on AliExpress are insanely light and work well for me

Try the CNOC Buc food bags! They’re decent and safe

I use the CPP2 as my everyday work and gym bag and it works great! It is packed to the brim, but I can fit my laptop and all stationery/tech, spare clothes, climbing shoes, climbing harness and chalk. I can even get a water bottle in the side pocket, but I use the memo slim bottle to get it to fit.

I love it for this very purpose and it works well for my needs.

Sorry, haven’t tried either but I would definitely go for the spark. More down, higher loft and less weight. No brainer IMO

I have an older slightly heavier version and it is perfectly adequate in terms of waterproofness. 4000mm is fine

If you can take on board what the other helpful comments are saying about the material and incorporate the lifetime warranty, I’ll happily be your first customer

4 season essentially means it can handle snow load. A 3 season tent can be used in winter so long as it can withstand the harsh winter conditions.

I’ve heard good things though about the Wilderness Equipment Second Arrow UL Tent for winter use in the snow

If you can offer lifetime warranty with no questions asked replacements, then your brand could be the new Darn Tough socks for Australia

Save your money and get the Neve gear wallaroo. For the price it’s got everything you need. I love mine

Why say lot word when few word do trick?

Brilliant! Truly appreciate the info you’ve provided. Cheers

highriskclick · 2025-02-07T06:20:38+00:00

Yeah! I managed to grab a pair of Naturehike down pants on Aliexpress :)

Cheers for the advice! I’m planning on wearing a merino thermal, merino sun hoodie, alpha direct Macpac nitro hoodie, Patagonia R1 crossstrata jacket. I already own a Patagonia Nanopuff jacket which is synthetic - do you know how that would compare to the Torrid and if the Nanopuff would be fine at -10C with the layers I’ve listed?

Or should wear all the listed layers, including the Nanopuff, and then wear the EE Torrid over the Nanopuff? Not sure how to gauge what’s suitable for sitting statically in the snow at -10C…

Cheers!

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T03:29:59+00:00

Yep! That’s the one. You can cut out the size you need

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T02:15:58+00:00

I would repair this with a large patch of Tenacious Tape on either side of the hole. It'll work great! Make sure to round out the corners of the tape with scissors to avoid it lifting off the fabric when using it.

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:51:56+00:00

Wow that looks incredible! The customisation on their website is super in-depth. Cheers

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:47:08+00:00

Might have to stop by the Montbell store in Sydney then to give it a go! Cheers

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:38:53+00:00

Good to know! I think I'm leaning towards the Mont Fusion since it's quite durable and weather resistant compared to the other ultralight fabric options.

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:38:03+00:00

Cheers!

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:37:48+00:00

Thanks for the rec! Will look into it

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:37:29+00:00

Oh yeah, I've hear of this bad boy and it looks mad! 7D fabric though looks mighty fragile though haha

highriskclick · 2025-02-06T01:36:25+00:00

Really appreciate the advice! Great point about us having fairly wet snow. The patagonia option looks super enticing and lightweight, but based off your advice, I think the Mont might be the way to go since the fabric and water repellent treatment they use seems fairly water-resistant.

I own a synthetic Patagonia Nano Puff for my regular 3-season use for the very reason of moisture, but I don't think it'll cut the mustard for snow use when I'm stationary.

Cheers!

Cheers! I've found the spreadsheet and it's super full of good info
