What was the last piece of gear you bought and how much did you pay if you want to let us know?
Me, I just bought a Granite Gear Nimbus Ozone for $105 off of Ebay and A REI Chrysalis UL from REI for $89.

last things
My wife mentioned a foosball table for my 11yo son for X-mas but I figured it would get 1 month of use then become an expensive table. Instead we got plate, bowl, foon, mesh bag (for above), stuff sack, closed cell foam pad, freeze dried ice cream, some Luna Bars, Smores desert (feeds 2, Yoo-Hoo), H20 bottle. And this plastic soccer ball thing you make ice cream with. It looks really cool and makes ice cream in 30'.

Coleman fully inclusive self contained emergency survival kit. It closely resembles a zippered, padded, old school day planner.

I bought it at an outfitterette in Middle Georgia, but I tend to believe it is more Blue Ridge specific. It contains, among other things, a juice harp "...for banjo accompaniment", a mason jarful of "Simmy Free's Snakebite and Cough Elixir ", and an Appalachian/English dictionary.

20 smaxes.

Sounds appropriate for this area too.

HPM got new shoes last week. I can't remember what the last piece of new gear is for me. It was something for the Nordhouse trip though.
