Great GPS unit. Very simple to use because it has the pointer function that is simiar to a computer mouse. Water proof (although I havn't tested that yet) and tough. I havn't loaded roadmaps on it yet, but plan on it at some time. Also it's small and light and fits easily into a side pocket of a pack.

Great pad. Real tough outer and thick padding for the tricky falls in PA. Also love how you can stuff everything into it and move to the next problem.

Great purifier. Simple and easy to use, pack, clean and maintain. I highly recommend this purifier to anyone. It makes it on my long trips as well as my day hikes.
