  1. Idk man my $50 Macpac alpha hoodie is possibly my favourite piece of gear I have ever owned and at 140grams or 4.9ounces that’s coming with me everywhere.

  2. YES! New subscriber because you said it out loud. Drop 10# instantly from your “base weight” by losing some of the gut.

  3. Over the last year, I saved 53 pounds off my trail weight. I started eating healthier and exercising. I lost 53lbs. Didn’t have to spend a dime. 🙂
