I know it is only August, but as autumn quickly approaches, it is time to start thinking about all the gear you need for the upcoming winter sports season. Last winter, I had the opportunity to test out a ton of pieces that are being released just now, so will share with you some of my favorites over the coming weeks.
For my climbing trip to Red Rock Canyon, I asked Outdoor Research if I could test out the new women's version of the Vantage Pants. I wore these climbing pants for six days straight (dirtbag climber) and apart from a sizing issue, found them to be super comfortable and great for summer climbing.
Before the holidays, I bought a backup pair of the First Ascent Guide Gloves, as well as a pair of the Mountain Guide Lite Pants. I was looking for a pair of ice climbing and mountaineering pants to use during somewhat warmer weather where an insulated climbing pant was just too much.
