- Thoughts on
-
- Boots:
-
- I have had a pair of Vasque boots for about 16 years. I don't even remember
- the type anymore. They have been resoled once and used for everything from
- backpacking to daily wear during graduate school. They have been great!!
-
-
- Packs:
-
- I recently bought a Dana Archflex Astralplane (~ 7,000 cu. in.) pack. I have
- used it to carry up to 65 lb loads and have been pleased with it's performance.
- Great suspension system and quality. No problems. Very expensive and somewhat
- heavy (6 lbs empty).
