Main event (Hiker Party 2010) on 11th
. includes a presentation by "Glen Van Peski" (GOSSAMER GEAR) about Ultralight Backpacking.
その後の水曜日１０月１１日にグレン氏によるプレゼンテーションがありました。
13 people started from "Mizugaki Hut" and hiked all the way to "Okutama Station". Total distance is 64 km (40 mi) . Most of the trails in Japan are on the line of mountain ridges, and there are lot of up and downs.... Distance you can hike a day is less than most of the trails in USA.
"I used my Evernew .9L pot on all three of my thru-hikes, AT '04, PCT '07, and CDT '09. It's very lightweight and is the perfect size for small meals for my wife and I. The handles are great and worth the weight over slightly lighter handle-less pots. I would definitely recommend the pot."
We are so glad to know that many hikers who wants to go ultralight like Joe choose EVERNEW Cookwares and really like them. We thank Joe for choosing EVERNEW GEAR and providing us with your feedback.
BEAUTIFUL Titanium Pot!! Justin Lichter (AKA: TRAUMA) hiked 30,000 miles with this EVERNEW 900ml Non Stick Titanium Pot (ECA-422). トラウマと30,000マイル（４８、２８０ｋｍ）のハイキングを共にしたエバニュー・ノンスティックチタンクッカー９００ｍｌ >> This Titanium Pot does not have any dents. Lid still fits perfectly. This pot proves why Titanium Pot is recommended to all backpackers and mountain climbers. >> 一つの凹みも無く、蓋も完璧にフィットする状態を保っています。これが、チタンクッカーが全てのバックパッカーやクライマー達に推奨される理由です。
About TRAUMA:トラウマについて I grew up about an hour north of NewYork City and have since lived in Santa Barbara, CA, southern VT, Dillon, CO, and I am currently living in Truckee, CA. When not hiking, I am a ski patroller and enjoy backcountry skiing, nordic skiing, snowshoeing, mountain biking, and pretty much anything else relaxing. Since 2002, I have hiked over 20,000 miles. In 2002 doing a cross-country map and compass trip through the canyon country of southern utah, in 2003 hiking from Georgia to Cap Gaspe, Quebec following the Appalachian Trail and International AT, 2004 hiking the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada and then the Pacific Northwest Trail to the Washington coast, 2005 the Continental Divide Trail from Mexico to Canada then continuing on the Great Divide Trail from the Canadian border up into northern Alberta, 11/1/05 to 10/23/06 completing the Eastern Continental Trail (cap gaspe, qc to key west, florida, incorporating the AT), Pacific Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail in under a year, a total of over 10,000 miles, and in 2007 a traverse of the Southern Alps and the south island of New Zealand. >>（一部）トラウマはニューヨーク州に生まれ様々都市を転々として、現在はカリフォルニア州Trukee市（タホレーク周辺の町）に住んでいます。Hikingをしていない時間はスキーパトロールをしたり、バックカントリースキーに出かけたり、様々なアクティビティーを通して自然を楽しんできます。ユタ州南部のキャニオンカントリーのハイキングやジョージアからケベックへのハイキングなど様々なハイキングの中でも２００５年11月1日から2006年10月23日まで歩き続けた「トリプルクラウン」（PCT、CDT、AT）は一年間で１０，０００マイル以上の大きな挑戦でした。

EVERNEW Nonstick Titanium Cookware Series has received "Editor's Choice Gold Award 2010" from Backpacker's Magazine. （エディターズ・チョイス・ゴールド・アワード２０１０を受賞しました。）
BACKPACKER MAGAZINE’S 2010 EDITORS’ CHOICE AWARD WINNER
The industry’s most coveted award honors the best new gear
and essentials for outdoor enthusiasts
SALT LAKE CITY, UT, January 21 –EVERNEW NON-STICK TITANIUM COOKWARE has been honored as a recipient of a 2010 Backpacker magazine Editors’ Choice Award, the most prestigious award in the outdoor industry, given annually to products in recognition of their outstanding innovation in design, materials and/or performance.
Backpacker Editor-In-Chief Jonathan Dorn and his staff of editors and testers presented EVERNEW NON-STICK TITANIUM COOKWARE with the award at the annual Outdoor Retailer Winter Market in Salt Lake City, Utah on Thursday, January 21st.
The Backpacker Editors’ Choice Awards, bestowed annually since 1993, honor the products that Backpacker editors have chosen as the best of the year based on months of trail testing by teams of highly experienced hikers and climbers. With no set categories for the awards and no set number of recipients, the products and the testing process drive the award categories.
EVERNEW NON-STICK TITANIUM COOKWARE was one of only 15 innovative products that have been honored with a 2010 Backpacker Editors’ Choice Award. Evernew, Inc. has been making Titanium cookware for 17 years.Titanium is the ultimate material for use in backcountry travel.Not only is Titanium exceptionally versatile, it’s also lightweight like aluminum, stronger than stainless steel, and fully corrosion-resistant.Evernew uses a non-Teflon, silicon based ceramic coating.PFOA, Perfluorooctanoic acid, is used in the production of Teflon.Little is known about PFOA, but what is known raises strong concerns regarding human health – especially the effects on children.Seven major manufacturers of Teflon coatings agreed in January 2006 to discontinue the use of PFOA by 2015.
“In an era of dime-a-dozen digital gear reviews, consumers are looking for product evaluations that they can really trust,” said Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Dorn. “And no one does more than our test team to make sure that our selections earn the respect that Backpacker awards get. Led by Gear Editor Kristin Hostetter, the dozen or so core members of our crew hiked more than 15,000 miles this year, then finished our testing for Editors’ Choice with a 100-mile route through the Swiss Alps that entailed more than 60,000 feet of elevation gain, hours of waist-deep postholing, and weather conditions that challenged every piece of gear we packed. The result of the team’s hard work is a collection of smart, durable products that will deliver comfort and performance for many years to come.”
"Evernew is proud to be the first company to introduce titanium cookware to the backpacking community. Over that 17 years, we worked to develop cutting edge designs while keeping the highest product quality and a customer focus. Evernew's ongoing commitment to support the backpacker community with the most rugged, high quality lightweight gear is our number one goal. " said Evernew America, General Manager, Takashi Fukuchi.
The Backpacker Editors’ Choice Awards are the gold standard against which all outdoor products are measured, and are a seal of approval that can help put an outdoor company or product on the proverbial map. Each year at the Outdoor Retailer show, retail buyers use the awards announcements as a must-buy shopping list, knowing that their customers will be asking for these products in the spring.
Second day of Outdoor Retailer Show 2010, EVERNEW invited some friends in the industry to our first Minimalist Party. >2010年アウトドアリテーラーショーの2日目の夜、エバニュー主催の第一回「ミニマリスト・パーティー」を開催し、沢山の業界関係者の方々にお集まりいただきました。
We had Dave Baker (Owner of SUMMIT HUT: Tucson, AZ) as a presenter. >アリゾナ州、ツーソン市のアウトドア専門店SUMMIT HUTのオーナー、デイブ・ベイカー氏にプレゼンテーションを行っていただきました。
Glen Van Peski (Founder of Gossamer Gear) did a presentation of "What's in my Pack" and his thought on "Ultralight Backpacking". ＞こちらは、ゴッサマーギア社創設者のグレン・ヴァンぺスキー氏による、プレゼンテーションの模様です。
I hope everyone had Fun and chance to have a great communication . Maiｎ purpose of this party was to create a chance for all guests to have a communication with people in the same industry. Dave talked about his backpacking trip to Arizona Trail, and his gears. Glen talked about his gears including a little tiny (about a size of my palm) sleeping pad, and also his thought on "Ultralight Backpacking". This party was FULL of Fun and Education! We had almost 30 guests at the first party. Some are retailers and some are Gear manufacturer. I am wondering how many people I will be able to invite next year. I already have some thought in my mind... Please contact me if you have any suggestions for next year. >今回このようなパーティーを行った一番の主旨としましては、同じ業界で働く方々に少しでも同じ時間を共有し、いろいろな情報を交換しあって欲しいということからでした。 デイブ氏にはご自身のアリゾナ トレイルのバックパッキングとギアについてお話いただきました。またグレン氏においては、彼のギアの紹介と説明を行っていただきました。さらにウルトラライト バックパッキングの哲学的な部分もお話いただきました。 今回のパーティーはとても有意義でためになるひと時になったのではないでしょうか。 アウトドア業界に従事する方を対象にお招きをした為、お店を経営されている方やギアを考案・製作されている方など様々な業態の方にお集まりいただき、結果30人ものお客様にご参加いただきました。
