Re: What are you spending your REI dividend on? 2025 edition
Yea I like a wider toebox but narrower heel / mid shoe which the cascadia fit the bill. I bought a newer version and used it at work but it just wasn’t the same fit for me. It could be that my feet are just changed too. Either way I’m on the hunt. After you’ve used the catamounts you should post ...

Re: What are you spending your REI dividend on? 2025 edition
I’m annoyed they removed that cash out option. They used to cut you a check if you didn’t want to spend it. I’ll likely put mine towards new trail runners. My shoe size changed after pregnancy so even though my old ones are still good they are now a bit snug. Better size up. What’s everyone ...

Re: Walkie Talkies
No but we did use them at state parks to communicate from the boat to the campsite and even in that case it was spotty at best (1mile max - open terrain/lake). I wouldn’t think they would be worth the weight to carry them.

Re: Pre-Taping Feet?
I do for exceptionally long trips. Especially when we did the crucible (22miles in one short day). I use luekotape and never get blisters when I do it.

Re: Returning to IR, by seaplane?
We’ve only had excellent experiences with them. Will continue to use them in the future.

Re: Senter Point - May 2023
We were fortunate enough to see it a couple years back when they were there working on it. Very cool find and we enjoyed talking with the workers there.

Re: Post Hike Showers
They are totally worth every penny. You can get a towel and a bar of soap (think like a hotel bar). Return bin is by the laundry.

Re: Feldtmann loop or not
I wouldn’t skip siskiwit for Feltdmann. We spent two days there it was so nice. Big beautiful brand new dock and great swimming. Feltdmann is nice for moose watching and was a pretty site but no swimming. We skipped island mine and went straight to windigo. The loop is definitely worth doing once ...

Re: Hiking Boots vs. Hiking Shoes
I’ve exclusively worn trail runners on the island. My husband prefers a hiking shoe. I like the breathability, quick drying, lightweightness of trail runners. My feet feel far less fatigued and are blister free at the end of the day vs wearing boots. I’ve done many long miles (including the ridges ...

Re: What are you spending your 2022 REI dividend on?
Probably a percolator for car camping trips and a new pair of trail runners. Can’t go wrong with an extra set of darn tough socks too!
