TESTER INFORMATION
My outdoor experience began in high school with involvement in a local canoeing/camping group called Canoe Trails. The culmination was a 10-day canoe voyage through the Quebec wilds. I've been backpacking since my college days in Pennsylvania. I have completed all of the Appalachian Trail in Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina. My typical trip now is in the Sierra Nevada in California and is from a few days to a week long. I carry a light to mid-weight load, use a tent, stove and trekking poles. PRODUCT INFORMATION
Year of Manufacture: 2007 Manufacturer's Website: http://www.rei.com/ MSRP: $1.50 US Listed Weight: 3.2 oz (91 g) Measured Weight: 0.3 oz (8.5 g) (The REI website is incorrect in listing this tiny item as 3.2 ounces. It is actually one tenth of that.) Listed Size: 6.5 x 1.25 x 0.5 in (16.5 x 3.2 x 1.3 cm) Measured Size: 6.63 x 1.63 x .38 in (16.8 x 4.1 x 1 cm) Color: Black Material: Nylon Made in China FIELD USE I
bought the REI mini-spatula about five years ago to expand my cooking utensils.
Otherwise, I only carry a plastic spork and a sharp knife. The nylon spatula is
small and flexible and fits easily into my cookset. Depending on my menu for
the trip, I'll decide whether it goes along or not. But given its light weight,
it has made the cut especially for some longer trips. SUMMARY The REI Campware mini-spatula is a lightweight and versatile addition to my backpacking kitchen. I'm happy to bring it along on trips that include a wide variety of menu items and especially for cooking eggs.
