What are folks' experiences with heat molding the stock liners? Have you been able to get a pretty good fit?

Lightroom has some pretty simple CA fixes. Just correct it in post processing and you're good.

It's good stuff. They wanted to get back into the serious outdoor sports/climbing market, and this line got them there. I really love their Guide Gloves. Some of their other pieces (softshell,...

Arcteryx Dually Belay Parka

Used 3 days. Excellent condition

Red, Size XL

See review in Apinist Here:

Agree that #1 is best. It's just so clear that there's going to be a fish in that pool. (Also loving the vintage style bag.)

Thanks for the input. I'm not familiar with the Powerhouse couloir. What's it like? How would I recognize it once I get up on the dana plateau?

Thanks!

That's just what I was looking for.

I really like the Victorian Inn.

Clean rooms, cheap rates, good breakfast, nice proprietors, friendly dog, close to the ice park.

We're planning on a tour from Mammoth to Tioga Pass, then down the road to Lee Vining. Going the last week in March.

Anyone here done this tour? I've read the guidebook, but am looking for...

If a viewfinder is a must, the Olympus OMD might work. Not as small as the Sony RX100 by a long shot, but much smaller than a DSLR or the Sony NEX series (when you factor in size of lenses.) It's...

Any watch rated to 100m is fine for fishing.

My favorite beater/sports watch is a Seiko 5. Doesn't need a battery, reasonably inexpensive, and good looking.

Terrific TR's Really inspirational.

Is winter fishing in the GC a possibility? How is access in January?

Not really a "redneck" fix. That's very clean.

Yes, those are the skis. They are clean.

They are not "pure" or "hybrid." They are from 4 years ago when there was just one model. They're probably the equivalent of today's hybrid.

Looking to do something similar spring of 2013.

I'm interested in shooting some black and white photography with my digital camera. To date, whenever I wanted to shoot black and white, I've just shot film. I'm wondering if I could get good...

Olympus OMD-EM5 ticks all of your boxes, at half the bulk and weight of a DSLR.

This is my new favorite 3 season tent. Less than 2 pounds:

I also had an Olympus 1030, and agree that the image quality was terrible. (Worse than my much earlier Olympus 760)

Not exciting to me. No viewfinder, touch screen controls, poor choice of dedicated lenses.

Will likely appeal to simple point and shooters who want something smaller than a dSLR. Not for me.

My thoughts on the new Patagonia River Crampons on my blog, here:

Big Cottonwood is your best bet. Up high in the canyon on the way to Solitude and Brighton, the creek widens and flows through lots of beaver dam areas. Great fishing here.

Think of the things about the house that you really love. (views, small details, garden, interesting features, etc.) Spend some time taking pictures of those things as well as the typical stuff.

If you're still considering film, have you thought about a Minolta CLE?

Sony RX100 is current top of the heap for pocket cameras. Olympus XZ1 a good second choice.

Olympus OMD EM5 would be my top pick. Much smaller than a dSLR, but still has terrific image quality and a very broad array of excellent lenses.

Nice shots.

I need to shoot some film again. Got some color slides and b&w film waiting. Just need to load it up and shoot.

Whenever I take out beginners, I get them started with a Tenkara rod. That way, they can just worry about casting, and don't have to think about the reel, line control, etc. Once they've got some...

I own this lens. It's a terrific lens. Only real down side is that it's pretty big and heavy for m4/3. I use it quite a bit. I am loving my Olympus OMD. Amazing camera. I'm having a hard...

I came close to buying a M9 this year. I had the money set aside, and had it pretty much figured out which lenses I was going to get with it.

However, I ultimately didn't go that route. I...

Who made your rods? I have some cane rods too, and wonder if we have any from the same makers.

I have them. Mounted on DPS 112RP (190cm) Didn't use them a ton, as I didn't get out as much last season as I would have liked. So far, after 4-5 tour days and a day in-bounds, I'm pretty...

40 liters will work if you have lightweight gear. If you can sleep in a floorless pyramid tent, get a high quality lightweight down bag, and only take what you really need, 40 liters will be fine...
