www.webtogs.co.uk In this video from Webtogs, Lucy takes you through the Scarpa Kailash boots to explain why she loves them so much! Ideal for trail hiking, rugged day hikes, and regular abuse; the Scarpa Kailash is a medium-weight boot with maximum comfort. Features: * Suede leather uppers * Gore-Tex lining * Moisture-wicking synthetic sock liner * Close-to-toe lacing and gusseted tongues * rubber rands protect toes against bumps and abrasion * Comfort-Flex midsole * Polyurethane and EVA midsoles * Lightweight Vibram Hi-Trail outsoles Tech details: Weight: 620g / 22oz Vibram Hi Trail Sole The Vibram sole unit used on the Scarpa Kailash is incredibly light, yet unlike others who have tried to lighten soles by lowering the profile, it retains deep cleating that gives outstanding grip. Based on a Megabyte trekking mix, it gives great adhesion with easy self cleaning action during use. The combination of rubber outsole and ultra-Lite PU wedge gives great underfoot shock absorption. Midsole – Comfort Flex Using nylon for its permanent performance qualities, the comfort flex midsole is moulded so it has minimum flex in the heel section but gives comfortable flex in the forefoot area. It is used for walking and hillwalking footwear.

A few shelter mods are discussed and shown but the focus of these vids is the making of the fire. I used few edits in the video making because I needed to demonstrate the work needed to create a sustainable fire in these conditions. I have found no shortcuts in the wood preparation for wilderness fire making. Several blades including the Ontario RTAK II, Ontario RAT-7, and KaBar Heavy Bowie are used to strip limbs and baton the logs into burnable pieces with the advantageous sharp edges. They performed exceptionally well in the outing and withstood some real tough use in 15ºF cold (shown of course!). The Sawvivor backpack saw again proved its worth as an accurate and indispensable wood cutter, lubricated with frequent sprays of WD-40. Fire tender used this time was Trioxane solid fuel cake and REI Stormproof matches. The resulting fire was quite manly and heated the Lean-To to incredible levels. We had planned to also build a fire reflector and maybe some other structures but as usual the …
