    Calling experienced hillwalkers help needed!

    I always make sure that I have clothes to put on when I stop cos that's when your gonna feel it most. you should try to steer clear of the cotton as this wont wick your sweat away and then this will get cold (or freeze) and make you cold. I like the rab aeon tees they are pretty nice and quick...

    Did anybody hear You and Your's on Radio 4 Today ?

    I don't get why the snow brings everything to a halt, we seem to be the only country that can't deal with it. Xbushcraft is that what we need? It's sad to see so many people just stuck indoors and never experiencing anything that doesn't cost £49.99 and come wrapped in plastic. I have three...

    New torch?

    you can pick up an LED Lenser P3 for about £15 I think and if I remeber correctly they are 12 lumens and as the maglite solitare is only (as far as I know from other forums) about 2.5 lumens you'll see a significant difference in output (silly maglite it's all about LEDs). if you need a main...

    Which Headlamp would you recommend?

    It depends very much on your usage. Many people will recommend the alpkit gamma, This is a good light, very bright and the price is excellent at only £12.50. however the battery pack on the back is a little clumsy and there is no memory so you'll have to shift through all the beam options when...
