Creatine is arguably the most popular supplement on the planet right now.

Yet, most people aren't quite sure why they should've been told they should take it, how it works, or if it even really works.

If there were one backcountry nutrition tip I'd pass along, it would be this: never throw away the small nuggs (what we call them) of corn chips in the bag. They make the BEST accoutrement to our DIY Chili Mac at 9,000 feet and 28-degrees.
..be careful not to spill it on your sleeping bag though. That'll ruin a good time in a hurry...

October tools of the trade.
- - - -
The Jetboil isn't the lightest stove I own, but the simplicity and versatility of it usurps the typical Ti cup + stove combo.

I like a mug in October. It keeps the coffee hotter for longer and give me the option to still use the stove.

The spotter is a 65 made by Athlon. It's won multiple "best budget scope" reviews. While I can't say I've looked out of every scope on the market, I have been less impressed with scopes 3x the price. I can vouch for the customer service as well- top notch.

Honorable mention: spoon cover. I hate sporks. There's not enough "-ork" to do anything, but just enough to make the spoon useless. The cover has saved me from leaving it on the mountain more times than I can count. This one branded by the GREAT guys .
