Cleanwaste Go Anywhere Toilet Kit Wag Bag
The Cleanwaste Go Anywhere Toilet Kit Wag Bag has all of the basic elements needed to handle, treat, and then transport your poop while in the outdoors. Wag Bags are also a great way for you to help keep the popular outdoor areas you visit a joy for others by enabling you to properly dispose of your waste in areas where mother nature just doesn't have the capability to do it for you. On a section hike of the John Muir Trail this last summer, I exited my hike out through Mt. Whitney portal which… Full review

ClickHeat Hand/Pocket Warmer
Terrible product, doesn’t work, and is potentially dangerous. I had a horrible experience with this. I was trying to activate it and—I kid you not—it exploded and I got it all over myself. I seriously hope this stuff isn’t toxic as you claim, cause I’m seriously scared it might damage my skin. It got dangerously close to my eye. I was outside and couldn’t even clean myself up for a good half an hour. This is up there with the worst experiences of my life and I’m writing the review… Full review

Exotac titanLIGHT
This company has a non-responsive customer service attitude. Sent a TitanLight to be investigated for a leak issue. Repeated attempts to contact someone regarding the issue have not been successful. Phone calls and emails are never returned. Now I am out the purchase of a unit and no unit. Horrible business practices Full review

Reliance Tri-To-Go Camping Chair/Portable Toilet
Going to the bathroom in remote areas can be a challenge. As I have gotten older the old "Dig a hole" method doesn't work and I want to use Leave No Trace principles. When looking for an option that would work for me I considered several and finally landed this "chair/toilet". This has been such a great addition to my camping supply box that I have ordered another one so I now have one in two locations. I purchased this last spring for a camping trip. Wasn't able to use until my fall camping trip… Full review

ClickHeat Hand/Pocket Warmer
Kjøpte til datteren på Julemarkedet i Norge. Erfaringer, vurderinger. Etter førstegangsbruk lekte to av seks poser. Til slutt etter kun noen ganger bruk begynte lekke alle. Dårlig produkt. Ikke kjøp. Bortkastet penger. Styr unna! Mann får ikke kontakt med produsenten for reklamasjon, selv om det ble sagt ved kjøp at de sender ny vare i erstatning ved feil. Lureri. [GOOGLE TRANSLATE: Bought to daughter at Christmas market in Norway. Experience, reviews. After first use, two of six bags… Full review

GoGirl Female Urination Device
Transgender male-to-female. I live in upstate New York and I’m transgender male-to-female and getting gender reassignment surgery to become a woman. Right now I’m wearing a prosthetic vagina and with it learning to pee uout method. So when hiking I have been having to squat behind a tree to pee. Not the most pleasant experience but part of being a lady. Having to expose butt to bugs and plants to relieve bladder. Then in recent cold having to remove layers of clothing and squat in the snow was… Full review

Futuro Dual Strap Knee Support
Tendon supporter for the knee that is easy to get on and off as it is a strap rather than a sleeve. Adjustable pressure is applied gently with materials that don't cause friction. Added gel pads above and below the patella provide front support without covering the knee cap. This review is not intended as medical advice and I can't tell you if this brace will work for you. A doctor is the place to go if you have an injury, not the internet! I'm aiming this at folks who are already using a brace… Full review

Stoked Goods Stoke Lip & Face Balm
A really good option to avoid or deal with chapped lips and face. I like that it's a particularly fat lip balm. Bonus for putting in a paper (can be recycled) container. A bit pricy, and no sunblock. A very good lip balm (fine for face too) for cold, nasty weather that can chap and dry you out. Five ingredients: cocoa butter, shea butter, cocoanut oil, beeswax, and vitamin E. The manufacturer says it's all organic, if you care. It has a fairly thick consistency but still smears on nicely. It smells… Full review

Thinx Classic Undies
Dealing with periods in the backcountry can be incredibly frustrating. But Thinx unswear just might offer a solution. Periods are a regular part of most women's life. And yet they're still taboo to talk about. Instead of weighing all of our options, we pace along the period aisle in the grocery store, opting to use the most popular products (pads and tampons). But what other options are there? And how do you begin to handle periods in the backcountry? As someone who spends a lot of time in the wilderness,… Full review
