Nemo Losi 3P Gear of the Year Award Winner

The Losi 3P is racking up the awards this year. Already a winner in Backpacker Magazine’s eyes and now Outside Magazine’s Gear of the Year pick. It’s a great tent that’s not too expensive and will serve you well while camping. It’s only 5.9 lbs and fits 3 people. It has tons of room and a big vestibule to protect your gear from the elements as well.

Congratulations to Nemo for their continued excellence in designing tents. Their walls have got to be getting full with all the awards their tents are collecting. Keep up the good work.

Old man winter just won’t give up.

Recently we here at Campman went down to Chile for some hard core gear testing (pics and reviews to come). While we were gone we missed perhaps the best storm session of the year. Snowbird reported 12ft of snow in 12 days and we missed it all. Thus making or trip a little bittersweet. Regardless, the snow is still falling and we are taking advantage of the latest storm. Two feet overnight and almost a foot the next day has made for some great conditions. While its not uncommon for this to happen, it’s still a nice surprise every spring.

The resorts are starting to close however there is still almost 150 inch bases at some of the resorts. So get out and get some great spring skiing in. Soon enough it’ll all be gone which will make you’ll be happy for awhile and then the longing for next year will set in.
