The Most Secret Place on Earth | Packing List
…f a secret CIA city hidden in the mountains and of an airstrip that at the peak of operation was said to be the busiest in Asia. It was called Long Tieng, LS20A, or simply Alternate.

BUILT TO SEND U1 Daypack Review
…ap around. Loosely flopping ice-tool blades is a common annoyance on packs designed by “design teams” without consulting mountaineers. And it can be very dangerous for people around you, too. Also, attaching gear or small pouches to shoulder straps and webbing daisy chains on the main panel is quick and easy. The pack looks like just one big compartment on the outside – but inside, it hides more organization than you may think. A full-size flat ba…

Dan Matsuda x Carryology | Year of the Snake Morale Patch
…ad our scheduled meetings with. Let’s rewind back a few months, before the design phase, all the way to the ideation phase. Sometime around November 2024, which played a major role. These patches couldn’t just be any design, there needed to be some sort of relevant inspiration for their purpose.
