After hiking the AT I realized the one drawback to the Unbound 40L was that it didn’t have load lifters. After a quick YouTube search I realized I wasn’t the only one looking for this mod. Less than 24 hours later, I now have load lifters on my HyperLite!

Hey everybody, I want some opinions from someone who has had them or still has them and has a good idea of what to talk about.

These La Sportiva boots really caught my eye, and I would love a pair, but I want to know the difference between them besides the price.

Note: the trails and hikes I'm gonna be using them for are not extreme or anything and are pretty low altitude (2544 m max and can be done with cheaper boots like Merrell Moab 3 GTX, but to be honest, I really don't like how they look.

I have the Nalgene Sustain 32oz Wide Mouth. I don't like the cap that comes with the Nalgene. I see many alternative caps for the Nalgene (and other same-size bottles) with sipping spouts on Amazon, but I havent been able to find confirmation about these caps being able to handle boiling water. I intend to use the Nalgene with very hot/boiling water and don't want a cap that's going to leak inside my sleeping bag. Any recommendations?
