REI fleece here as well for the “warmer” temps.

I did my three day intro to cave at Ginnie with Bill “Bird” Oestreich back in January. The biggest thing I found to help me was to listen to what you are being told and do it that way. Regardless of what your buddy or some video told or showed you for some superfly technique or shortcut, do it...

Had been using the Bard Wideband external caths and recently tried some samples of the Hollister Inview Extra. It’s pretty much identical to the Wideband, packaging shape, all of it. The biggest difference is that the Inview Extra has a fair bit more adhesive on it creating a much more secure...
