ku-pgm-dc_a07

Helikon-Tex PILGRIM Anorak Jacket® is designed for demanding outdoor activities in dynamically changing weather. Based on the zipped “kangaroo” construction proven for decades, it has been clearly refined to meet the expectations of modern travelers, while still hitting the aesthetics of the “old guard”.

Numerous pockets will allow for convenient placement of equipment, while their characteristic arrangement will make them constantly available, even when working in a sitting or kneeling position. Elongated construction of the jacket protects the body regardless of the equipment we carry.

By lowering the “kangaroo” pocket, they were able to extend the front zipper of the jacket, which allows the user to better ventilate his body during strenuous approaches or work

Main features:
1) Fire sparks resistant
2) Dries faster than cotton
3) Can be impregnated with wax
4) Tapes inside the pocket for attaching equipment
5) Hood is adjustable in 3 planes

SCUBAPRO Sunday – Groundhog Day

Sunday, February 2nd, 2020

This has nothing to do with diving. But since it is Groundhog Day, I had to do this. Groundhog Day is one of Bill Murray’s best movies. It has some great lines. Let’s say you are driving down route Irish in Iraq. Something happens, you look at the driver and say, “Don’t drive angry, don’t drive angry, you are doing pretty good for a quadruped” “I am a god, not the god.”

Being overseas is sometimes like Groundhog Day. Your days start to run into each other and are almost always the same; wake up, eat, workout, eat, go out, eat, sleep. Somewhere in, there is another meal, I think. 

Everyone knows SEAL is an acronym, but not too many people know what it stands for, Sleep, Eat, Act like you are doing something, and Lift. Now it depends on the coast you’re on, west coast SEAL its Sleep, Eat, Actor and Lift. For east coast SEALs its Sleep, Eat, Author a book and Lift.

There is way more to being overseas then that but that is what it feels like sometimes. If you have time to watch it, today is the day to do it. If you are overseas, be safe, have fun, and get home fast.

I couldn’t find the full movies, so here is the trailer.

ORSWM 20 – Mystery Ranch Celebrates 20 Years of Still Crazy and Going Strong

Thursday, January 30th, 2020

This is a big year for Mystery Ranch and they are celebrating at the OR Snow + Winter Market. Naturally, they’ve got beer in the afternoon, but they’re also passing out printed copies of 20th anniversary monograph I wrote for them.

Below is a little taste. If you want to see the whole thing, go here.

The MYSTERY RANCH we know today is the distillation of time and space. It has taken more than 20 years of trial and error to get where it is today, and it couldn’t exist anywhere but Bozeman, Montana. But if you remove the location, the product, and even the people, you are left with a state of mind. Known lovingly as the “Ranch,” it’s developed from beyond just a brand, into a culture forged by shared experiences, bringing together individuals from all over to create something more than just great packs.

As businesses grow, things must change. It’s often hard, but necessary to maintain a functioning company. There’s a general consensus that although change happens, it’s for the best, and new processes and procedures are implemented in a way that everyone can live with.

“We are fucking freaks for Manufacturing.” -Dana Gleason

With a name inspired by a long-forgotten black and white television show, MYSTERY RANCH is nothing without its people. Ultimately, the Ranchers and their disparate backgrounds have come together to embrace the unique culture of MYSTERY RANCH, making it the worldwide success it is today.

It’s been a great 20 years. Here’s to 20 more.
