RESPONSE TESTIMONIALS TO YESTERDAYS ARTICLEThere is no arguing with the Ultra-Lite crowd....their sleeping bags, tents, ground pads and backpacks are made for speed while hiking not a good night sleep, long term durability or when the weather turns really nasty on them.

RECEIVED FROM A SEARCH AND RESCUE DOG HANDLERJerry,The mittens are on my list as I purchased them for a friend who runs. He has said his hands are finally not cold!
