John Race, the current VP of the AMGA, writes in his review for Alpinist Mountain Standards that the 60L WorkSack is “PERFECTION”. The 60L WorkSack earned 5 stars, and the coveted Mountain Standards Award for the (record?) second time. It’s hard to quote from a review sometimes, but I managed to pick out a few [...]

We just reserved a small keg for tomorrow from Lucky Lab. If you’re around Portland, Oregon, and looking for something to do in the late afternoon or early evening, swing by CiloGear for our Welcome to Portland / Holiday party. The party will be going on from 3 PM to 7:30 PM…but don’t worry, we’ll [...]
