Misc > Backpacker 2004 Editor's Choice Awards
I'm probably late to the party, but Backpacker magazine published their editor's choice awards.
The coolest thing is the JetBoil, an integrated, high-efficiency cartridge stove and one quart pot that weigh just 14 ounces combined. I don't see me going solo backpacking again for a little while, but when I do that's the stove I want.
The Big Agnes sleeping pads look good, too. A lot lighter and thicker than a Therm-A-Rest.
