Can't say i'm not dissapointed to have been overlooked but thanks for the opportunity. Fortunately Evoc Sports and Kali Protectives have come through with some sweet gear to test and put my energy to good use. Cheers

Thanks Mountain Hardware and BSC.

Got a couple of boxes delivered last week from MHW. I've tried out the shirts and they fit well and will be put to good use during the warm weather. The fairing jacket is waiting for the temperature to dip below 30C.

Planning a trip to use the Ozonic 65 L backpack. It's waterproof so might come in handy for multiday backcountry skiing trips or that west coast hike I've dreaming about.

Thanks again!

A big THANK YOU to Mountain Hardwear and BSC!

My kit arrived just in time for my Mount Elbrus climb!

The Ozonic 58 Outdry has quickly become my pack of choice!

* Lightweight, comfortable for days, and easy to adjust over layers

* Waterproof, so I didn't have to worry about snow, rain, or throwing the pack around on the snow

*Roomy and simple main compartment that was quick to access

* I removed the top pocket and the pack was great for day hikes!

* It was easy to attach my ice axe, trekking poles, and threw my crampons in the front of the pack

The MH Butter Zippity is one of the softest base layers ever.

Softer than kittens, seriously. Offering sun protection (UPF 50) it was perfect for a sunny hike up Mount Cheget!

Thanks again!
