Clothing and equipment from a recent camino

I have just posted, on our blog, a review of the clothing and equipment Robin and I used during our recently completed, Christmas Camino. Aarn Peak Aspiration packs gets high marks, as do Pacer poles, Patagonia, Arctyrx, Marmot and Ex Officio clothing. Nunatak sleeping bags (but not the stuff sack) also get the nod as well as Solomon and Zamberlan Gore Tex boots. Our packs weighed in at close to 17 pounds with food and water, and we still found a few things to shed once on the Camino. There is always a way to get to Santiago with less. That is the challenge.

Buen camino
