    I recognize Alan because I saw him on the trail once. I will never forget, it was June 2019. Our backpacking crew was fighting our way up a deep snow covered climb in Yosemite between Tenaya Lake and Clouds rest. Alan and his running companion came lightly sprinting down the ridge hopping along as though it was nothing. We talked to them, They had come up from Yosemite Valley, over Clouds rest through some difficult snow conditions. They were continuing on to wrap up their 40+ mile day out to Tenaya Lake then back towards El Cap and down to the Valley. I charted the course after and it had over 11K in elevation change. I can't comprehend covering that distance, elevation, at altitude, in those conditions. This guy is amazing!!!

    From my experience the UD flasks tend to spring leaks a lot. I have several UD vests but all the bottles they came with have tear-aid all over em ^^'

    What kind of super expanding fabric is that vest made of?!? That's an unbelievable volume of stuff 😂

    • @rei
      @rei  2 года назад +1

      Kind of amazing, right?! Salomon says the Sensifit construction, "offers a snug, precise, comfortable fit and balances the load front and back, so you can move more freely and faster." You can check out the material's specs here: bit.ly/3m4FvmA

    I think some sort of basic survival kit might be a good idea just in case.

      Good eye! Those are Altra Lone Peaks. We've got a few prior year models available in our Used Gear shop (rei.com/used), and the latest versions on REI.com.
