This month, Jonathan and Mark get a chance to talk with Mark Orton – also known as Spiguyver. We chat about his experiences camping and backpacking and what got him into producing regular video content for hammock campers and backpackers alike. We get a little more in-depth talking like gearheads, and then talk about what we all love when we’re backpacking – food! Finally, we chat a little about mountain biking where there aren’t mountains.
We get a special treat this month with Spiguyver chatting with us about our trending topic this month, modding the infamous Costco Down Throw as an underquilt/topquilt.
