Canon Powershot SD550 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera
First to recommend
3 people recommended this item
Description
Great small camera. Fits easily in pockets, but takes pictures that look great at 8x10. It would be nice if they included something to protect the nice color screen. Has a 3x optical zoom.

The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein
First to recommend
Description
Robert Heinlein is probably best known for "Stranger in a Strange Land" (where he coined the term "grok"), or "Starship Troopers" which was adapted to a movie a few years back, but I think this is his best novel. It mixes sci-fi and political themes to great effect, and is a fairly short, fast paced read.

Therm-a-Rest

Description
Light, compact, and comfortable. Self inflating - these are much better than older style foam or bulky inflatable mats. They sell 3 styles of self inflating mattresses - this is the medium weight/bulk version that I use.

Kelty Moraine Pack
First to recommend
Description
Kelty packs last forever. I got this one a couple of years ago (after my previous one got stolen), and use it for day hikes and weekend backpacking trips. As long as you get the right size for you and adjust it properly, they're very comfortable.
This one also has little holes on the sides for your hydration tubes, so you don't need a separate CamelBack bag.

Vasque - Sundowner Brown GTX - Mens
First to recommend
Description
When I was researching hiking boots, I read a lot of magazine reviews that basically said these were the best, most durable all around hiking boots you could buy. That was almost 10 years ago, and my pair has never dissappointed.

Mountain Safety Research : WaterWorks EX Microfilter

For longer hikes, I prefer to carry a filter instead of carrying a lot of very heavy water. MSR filters have worked great for me.
