As the helicopter slowed to a hover, I took note of the safety zone, stepped over the skids, and slung my pack over my shoulders to keep it from blowing off the steepest slope I’ll ever ski. Last spring, I was in the French and Italian Alps as a guest of Eleven Experience — and I brought a few toys to test. Most notably, Raide Research’s LF…

I have a standard 2- to 3-week international work itinerary. It takes 32 hours of travel to get to my office in northern Uganda from my home in Oregon. I pack everything for these trips into a 44L bag, so space is at a premium. My kit is dialed, so I rarely bring anything new to test. I need clothing that can withstand heat and various elements (such as rain, mud, and dust) while also looking presentable for formal meetings.

Or even a fully functional workstation, for that matter? That’s where the new Dark Energy Poseidon XL comes into play. If you need to work from the field or on the road, this is for you. In short: Hunters looking to power up a mobile workstation while in…
