Half Off: Ruffwear Bark’n Boots Grip Trex Dog Booties

Mike — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 10:01:52 +0000

Backcountry.com started their semi-annual sale this weekend. Loads of winter and end-of-year products are on sale with pretty big discounts.

Here’s an unusual sale item - and no, I don’t buy a lot of stuff my dog doesn’t really need. Anyone who’s a dog owner and a backpacker will understand how important a pair of dog booties can be. In winter (especially during spring melt-and-freeze season) and on rocky, desert trips they can save your dog’s feet from turning raw and hamburger-looking. These Ruffwear Bark’n Boots Grip Trex booties are cut snug so they won’t slide around and fall off as easily, plus they have sticky rubber soles to put four good soles on the ground. Wonder if you’ll even be able to keep up with only two good boots to help you.

$50 - Salomon Raid Revo 20 Pack

Mike — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 03:43:06 +0000

Salomon made some of the first adventure racing gear ever for the Raid Gauloises adventure races. Ever since the ultralight “Raid” series of gear has been some of the toughest, most feature-filled gear available for any outdoor-person who likes to keep things light.

The Salomon Raid Revo pack fit that mold perfectly. It’s just 10 ounces, but sized at over 1,000 cubic inches with an internal hydration pouch sleeve and an outside flap for a helmet or snow shovel. Grab it now for $49.83 at REI - no direct links so click over and search for item # 734327.

$40 - Primus Micron Stove on Sale at REI

Mike — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 02:53:48 +0000

Weighing only a few ounces and using pressurized gas canisters, the Primus Micron stove is an ultralight and simple-to-use camp stove. It’s the latest generation of stoves from Primus and weighs only 3.3 ounces, but still boils a liter of water in just 4 minutes. Even better, the burner can be adjusted from very low to very high heat levels easily.

I have two of the older versions of these stoves (the oldest has a melted, plastic piezo igniter - a problem solved on all newer, metal models) and they’re low maintenance and easy-lighting compared to most liquid fuel stoves. The only drawbacks are at high-temperature and altitude (over 10,000 ft) where the pressurized gas doesn’t burn for very long and that the stove on top of the gas canister isn’t as stable as shorter stoves that sit right onthe ground. Grab one of these if you’re an ultralight backpacker or a hiker who doesn’t like having to tweak and toy with the stove.

No direct-linking to REI items, so click and then search for item # 752821. Sale price at the winter clearance sale is 30% off, just $39.83.

Half-off Patagonia Men’s Spraymaster Waterproof Jacket

Mike — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 18:34:48 +0000

It’s softshell+waterproof from the Spraymaster shell. From Patagonia, this shell is a fully waterproof, breathable jacket made completely with stretch shell fabric. That gives it a lot of extra flexibility and a trimmer fit than normal waterproof shells and gets it pretty close to most soft shells. Of course, soft shells have nothing on it in terms of protection in wet and nasty weather and few can match its 10.5-ounce weight.

Just $124.50, half-off, at Patagonia’s own store: patagonia.com.
