We’ve mentioned gear reviews a few times in our writing here. Some more details:
Dan and I are Gear Reviewers for Supertopo.com. We use and abuse gear items and conduct moderately scientific experiments on some of the most popular outdoor gear items. I reviewed sleeping pads in August. You can see my review here. Now we’ve been collectively charged with tents, sleeping bags, stoves, water filters, small backpacks, and more is on the way. As you can imagine our road trip is the perfect testing environment because we're exposed to a variety of climates from the wet PNW, to the dry desert, and high and snowy alpine areas. Testing the gear uses up little free time, but writing reviews and shooting pics is a part time job. When we aren’t climbing, we’re entirely consumed with reviews. We are becoming experts on things people obsess over and vehemently dispute on a daily basis. These reviews are paying for our trip, providing us with all the best gear, and allowing us to save some money for the future. This is the perfect job for us.

Dan and I are currently finishing up reviews on backpacks and stoves. We’ll post a link here once they’re online. These pictures (above and below) are two of my favorite from the stove review.
