The Aquaclip is the key to all Aquapacs. An amazing little device which seals the case with a simple twist of a lever.
It has a V-groove in one half and a raised V on the other. When the levers on the male half are turned they run up a ramp on the female half – squeezing the two together. The pressure’s not sufficient to cut the soft plastic case material, but just enough to make a totally hermetic seal.
The two halves are attached to the case by a pair of ‘flexible clips’ in such a way that the whole case stays in one piece, even when open.
The Aquaclip was awarded Millenium Product Status by the British Design Council. A government initiative to recognize "one of the most innovative products created in
The Aquaclip is made entirely of light injection-moulded plastic. So it can’t rust.

When you open an Aquapac everything stays in one piece. No loose screws. No need to fold the end of the case. Simple.

The most impressive feature of the AquaFlo™ Universal Starter Kit is the Bite-Me Valve®. It simply works well when you want it to, and doesn't leak. I've been using the same AquaFlo™ reservoir for nearly a month now, and I've had zero problems with leakage, odor, or bad taste. To me, it makes more sense to purchase 3 recyclable reservoirs, a drink tube, and a superior bite valve for $26.99, rather than spend $28.00 on a single replacement reservoir, drink tube, and inferior valve.
Your tent is your home in the wilderness, so don't sacrifice comfort and stability for a few ounces. NEMO used the lightest weight materials and a unique pole structure to build the Losi™ tent extra sturdy and extra spacious. Two doors and two vestibules eliminate jostling for position and gear storage, and an optional Pawprint™ liner joins sleeping pads to make a double bed. With a full mesh canopy for summer evenings and large side vents for continuous airflow on rainy nights, Losi™ is essential for the avid backpacker.

With that said, I have my first creekboat, and I can’t wait to put a few scratches in it! It’s a Bliss-Stick Huka… check it out. As a beginning creek-boater, I look to people pushing the sport for inspiration. Montana has no shortage of people running rivers that make my knees week, but the majority of them don’t have sites that are regularly updated on their adventures. Someday I’ll paddle that runs through my mind constantly when I take a look at what Robin and friends are up to at Infinity Mountain. They're still getting the site dialed in... but the pics are incredible. Check it out and understand the level these guys are at. They also backcountry ski, climb, hike, and generally make use of their surroundings in the best way… something we really dig at Powderfin.
We put in at Salmon Lake and rowed through it to the mouth of the river...luckily the wind was at our backs, or it would have been a looooooooooong day. It's a gorgeous lake, with some pretty impressive houses on it. Not exactly in the backcountry, but beautiful all the same. The river sections of the float between 3 different lakes were a lot of fun to row through, featuring some mild whitewater that bumped us around enough to soak the girls...making the rest of the trip a bit cold in the Montana spring wind.
We didn't do much fishing on this trip, mostly just sightseeing and hanging out. However, the water is gin clear while most other rivers are muddy right now, and I hear there's some Northern Pike in the upper stretches. Next time I'll be slingin' Yellow Bunny Strips and we'll see what happens
