Question moved to appropriate forum...

Pictures coming soon. These have minor rust and need to be sharpened. I got a pair of Air Tech's and don't need these anymore.

So I've been thinking of going back to school, hopefully to specialize in camelid medicine. It seems to me there are a lot of llama ranches in the western Sierra where I could not only treat my favorite furries, but also be close to good rock climbing.

Any opinions on elite programs ?

Hello,

Is anyone familiar with this tent: Mountain Hardwear EV direct 2
http://www.trailspace.com/gear/mountain-hardwear/ev-direct-2/ ?

It seems like a bare bones version on the ev2. It also seems like it was only produced for a short while as I can't seem to find it on the MH website. I stumbled across one for just under $300CAD. listed price 550usd can be found for about 400.

I'd be curious to hear of anyones experiences with the tent. ...

Do you always use them? Or do you consider them unnecessary weight? Or do you only bring depending on conditions?

I've always brought one along. It seems to me that their primary function is abrasion resistance, like a liner sock. (But I don't wear liner socks).

....i just wrote my first trip report. its short, and i plan on some sequels to this with more pics (i have sadly lost most of the photos from this trip...so i apologize).

i hope you like.

Hi, I've got a pair of Nomics that have never been swung!
I've actually got two pair... I ordered a set before a trip and they didn't come in time... Thanks www.dipsh!ts... Anyway, I bought another set because my buddy said he'd buy the ones I ordered online. Well...he didn't!
First 500 bucks takes them!
20 bucks for shipping continental
Thanks,

Just got a new Garmin Oregon 450t. In four weeks hiking Mt. Yale in CO and wanted to download the trail map. What are good sites to get this information and how does it compare to the 1:100 topo maps currently loaded on the Garmin. Thanks for your input.
