Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL2 Tent

Woven from 70D high-tenacity nylon with a 400-pound weight capacity (rated) — the actual breaking strength of the nylon fabric is several thousand pounds, making the rating conservative. The triple-stitched suspension channels and ring-buckle system are the same hardware used in climbing slings. The hammock folds into its own integrated stuff sack without a separate bag to lose. Made in Asheville, North Carolina. ENO offers a lifetime warranty that covers replacement of worn or failed materials. The fabric's high thread count prevents UV degradation better than low-count nylons.

The Whisperlite International burns white gas, kerosene, and unleaded gasoline — any liquid fuel worldwide, which makes it the stove of choice for expedition mountaineers and long-distance travelers. The all-brass and stainless steel construction has zero plastic in the fuel delivery system. The shaker jet cleaning mechanism clears clogs without tools — you shake the stove and a wire inside the jet clears the orifice. MSR has been making the Whisperlite since 1984 with minimal design changes because the original design was already this good. Every component is individually replaceable through MSR's parts program.

Hand-forged by Swedish smiths in Axe Village (Gransfors), using the traditional charcoal-fired forge technique — each axe head is individually forged, not cast, which creates a tighter grain structure in the steel. The hickory handle is straight-grained American hickory, hand-fitted into the head and secured with a wooden wedge and a steel wedge. The steel is hardened to 57-59 HRC — hard enough to hold an edge through extended splitting but tough enough not to chip on knots. The smith's initials are stamped into each axe head as personal quality certification. Gransfors Bruks axes are still handed down as heirlooms.
