So it won’t be long before I’ll be on Mt Rainier once again. But this time it’s not for a summit but for advanced mountaineering training and extreme winter camping experience.

This is the 62lb pack I carried up Mt Baker last year. It was a 7 day expedition so a lot of food was required.

Rob’s Gear Guide!

In Gear by Robert Danger Byrd / February 9, 2014 / 0 Comments

Since I am often trusting my life to my gear on these adventures, I choose every piece of gear carefully. I spend countless hours researching, reading blogs and trip reports, talking to guides and climbers to find best, safest, lightest, most reliable gear money can buy. I will often buy several different brands of an item and test them myself to determine which does the job to my satisfaction. I never buy the cheapest, always the best performing.

So I am currently working on a gear guide with the items I have chosen and field tested and found to be up to the task so you can benefit from my efforts.
