Yes, CamelBak is Selling Gloves
First off, if it weren’t for military contracts, a lot of outdoor companies would be hurting.

What’s odd here is that a hydration pack company is making gloves – [...]

Hammocks Are In Heaven (And Pop Culture)
Happy Friday!

Of course we are talking about the [...]

Petzal: A Cautionary Tale About Lighter Fluid
Lighter fluid is one of the handier things a gun nut can have on hand. It’s a great degreaser, and because of the bottles in which it comes you can dispense tiny amounts, which makes it economical. My last 12-ounce bottle of Ronson lighter fuel lasted me more than a decade, and when it ran out I went into the local hardware store to ask for a new one.
“Aisle three, on the left,” said the clerk, but when I went there all I saw was charcoal igniter and bottles of butane.
