Marmot Driclime Windshirt Review
There is one piece of gear that I own that get used more than anything else - my Marmot Driclime Windshirt. I swear I live in this thing daily for at least nine months out of the year. I'm wearing it right now as I'm typing.

I've posted a review of this thing on our Gear Reviews page. I had sold this jacket for years but never understood what all the fuss was about. Now I know, and I'm totally sold on it.

Ziplock Wallet
It's always the small things that get me excited about trips. One of these is my ziplock wallet. I always empty out my regular wallet and put the bare essentials in a quart-size freezer bag. Just my license, debit card, and a few business cards. That's it - that's all I need.

I've carried a ziplock wallet on all my trips. Breaking out another bag reminds my of the Appalachian Trail thru-hike, Mississippi River trip, and tons of other activities done outside. When I finished the AT, I carried that same duck-taped bag for several months afterward as I just wasn't ready to jump back into the real world.
