Outdoor Mountain Apparel
Been fairly busy this year heading out to the mountains almost every other weekend. What are people's thoughts on North Face VS Columbia VS Helly Hansen VS etc?
So far, definitely liking the North Face and Columbia for heat gear and H/H Warm is doing its job so far. The heat gear is fairly moisture resistant and dries very quick if you get it wet.
Does the fancy Columbia base layer with shiny material on the inside and dark material on the outside actually work?
Definitely thinking of grabbing some ice walking crampons and getting out there this winter, went out there with snowboarding clothes last winter and while it works, I'd like something thinner and warmer. Think junior Bear Grylls nothing too crazy kind of winter hikes.
Someday we may need to activate the halo structure off Deerfoot and destroy the North East.
