Nitty-Gritty

I am by no mean an expert. While I love gadgets and I look for equipment that enhance my experience, I do not adhere to the gear-above-all-else mentality. Also, I can’t subscribe to this ultralight craze, but I do everything do hike smartly and lightly. Part of the fun is indeed having the right equipment, while also learning skills and being empowered by knowledge.

This page contains my gear reviews, not to show off, but to really discuss the kit and how it affects the hike. Here too I want to detail my experiences, good and bad, and share the skills I learned along the way.
